This has always been so weird to me when it comes to celebrities. Outside of some controversial thing where you are publicly supporting a friend, why post about how much you support and sympathize with someone’s lost on your own media? I mean, if someone I know loses a loved one, I’m going to find a way to contact…

Yeah, her interactions with Eddie totally fly in the face of everything this article is saying the trope does, so the writer should be praising this use of the cheerleader, not hating on it.

Because a stock photo of a white guy would have been too hard to use? There’s no way the teacher didn’t know how using any black person in that context, much less Obama, would look and how easy it would be to keep it from looking that way.

Tell me you’re a white straight cis male without telling me you’re a white straight cis male.

I mean, sometimes they come to your door just because something happened in your neighborhood and they want to know if you saw or heard anything. Or, someone calls on you for something you didn’t do and they need to sort that out. Or, as in my case, they got a call about a barking dog and they went to your next door…

Yep, they should ban periods now! (I wouldn’t be surprised if some Republican asshole said something similar to that, honestly. It’s sad, really.)

You don’t ovulate fertilized eggs.

Have you ever heard “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder?” You know what that means? It means that no one is beautiful to everyone and everyone is beautiful to someone. I don’t care how hot you think you are, someone out there thinks you’re ugly. I don’t care how ugly you think you are, someone out there thinks…

How do you know she’s morbidly obese? Do you know her BMI?

Also, we shouldn’t be stigmatizing people with addictions. We should be trying to help them permanently kick those addictions.

You should probably go learn something about the history of the BMI and how the definiton of “obese” has changed over the years with no scientific reason. Then go learn about how people can be fat and very healthy and you can’t tell if they are healthy or not just by looking at them (not even just by knowing their…

“Axe” used in this way is part of AAVE and is, therefore, not incorrect. 

Except, the a is in there already. Another is an other. If you put a word before the other, then the a or an would depend on the word between and no n would be needed in front of other because the n goes with the a. 

Oh, I just found out today that it’s not even 6 weeks. It’s “from the moment of fertilization.” Which, I don’t know why they don’t just say, “abortion is illegal now.” Why do they need to add “from the moment of fertilization?” Just to be dicks, I guess.

I am starting a job Monday working for a company that does employment checks for other companies and one of the things they do is verify education. So, yeah, people probably shouldn’t lie about that, especially when applying to a company large enough to be able to hire a company like mine.

How, exactly, do you get people to turn against this kind of thing without making them care?

Oh, they are. They have fought him before and won. They aren’t afraid of him and they know the power they have now.

Here’s the thing, though. The tribes--especially the Cherokee Nation, which is one of the largest (if not the largest) tribes and definitely the richest--aren’t little kids anymore. Especially not in Oklahoma. Quite some time ago, the state made gambling on NA land legal, so casinos have popped up everywhere…

I’m an Oklahoman. Stitt has been antogonizing the tribes--especially the Cherokee Nation, the richest tribe--since he took office. Funnily enough, he is a member of the Cherokee Nation. He doesn’t at all act like it, though. He acts like he just rode in here from Europe and is handing out blankets. Personally, I think…

I have an associates in CJ and I will say that my BS in Organizational Leadership taught me a lot more I could have used as a cop than the CJ degree did. Oh, that was a very interesting degree to get and I did learn things that would have helped me (although, I suspect I would have been taught much of that in the…
