The backlash to “hey, could you please use a little bit of self restraint so a bunch of people don’t die” is both fascinating and disgusting.

Exactly! Can you imagine if those people were asked to comply with a blackout drill by staying in and turning off their lights? Entire cities would have been bombed.

Does she actually understand what she did wrong? Because it feels like she’s missing it. It wasn’t that she called the police in a situation where it was a judgement call. It was that she literally used calling the police as a threat, the unspoken part of which was, They’ll believe me long before they believe you, and…

That’s not the worst apology I’ve ever seen (low bar), but the bit about her privilege blinding her to the fact that for some other groups the police are not just a benign protection agency is patent bullshit. She makes a point of saying to this guy that she is going to call the police and tell them an “African…

Genuinely wondering if this would have gotten as much attention from white people if she weren’t choking out a dog during the whole vid.

I’m not sure how me using a woman’s name to insult other women is sexist. I’m not obligated to support other women writ large, especially not when they do stupid fucking shit. I’ll take Karen any day to describe someone that’s actually being an asshole over being subjected to listening to people use “bitch” or “cunt”…

A protection agency? Like for white people?

Sam is right on top of that, Rose.

“Like many folks in my middle-age group, I learned the very hard lesson to never allow anyone access to social media accounts or passwords,” Howze told Politico in a statement.

“Bigotry and hateful rhetoric—in any form—have no place in the Republican Party”

These types always want specific examples so they can (theoretically) knock them out one by one. I had someone argue with me like that and he required me to have an annotated bibliography for my side but he wouldn’t come up with anything at all to support his side. He just wanted to shoot down my examples. He said…

Most likely the latter, especially since she all but gives up and drops the subject as soon as possible.

God DAMN I am tired of this “Marie Kondo is selling out!” whining. Kondo is not anti-stuff. She does not object to personal possessions. She has nothing against capitalism or the acquisition of material goods. At all.

Do not mess with Chrissy!!!!

Fire her ass and hire someone who knows to bloom their spices in the coconut milk solids when they make a curry.

Antonio was supposed to be playing a vampire from Russia that was made when he was 15 years old. He took me right out of the movie. Interview with the Vampire was from Louis perspective so Tom Cruise perfectly captured him from that point if view.

I don’t trust motherfuckers who don’t sometimes need a bubble bath and a big glass of rosé on hard days. That’s just self-care, man. 

Maybe with Spike we can actually get a Vietnam movie without a shot of helicopters flying over the jungle while ‘Fortunate Son’ plays on the soundtrack.

Oh, come on. Everyone knows sasquatch is a drummer, and a terrible one at that.

So — I don’t really know exactly what Hough is talking about, but I will point out that stress does seem as if it probably exacerbates endometriosis and may play a causal role (for instance, there’s a correlation between adverse childhood experiences and endometriosis, suggesting that trauma may play a role) — here…
