In short, no. I don’t think it was ever this necessary as it is now. The problem is that the majority of our elected officials have started voting purely on the party lines rather than actually paying attention to the issues. This insanity could’ve been dealt with months ago if the people in power actually cared about…

Of course abbreviating it is an attempt to diminish the pain that it causes. That is the point. To not subject people over and over again to an incredibly painful racial slur, for no reason.

I’m particularly fond of her asking if using the word makes someone racist while repeatedly using it herself. I’m just asking questions, guys! Don’t mind the fact that I’m gleefully using a racial slur over and over again!

Hey - why don’t you stop using the full spelled-out version of the n-word in your posts? That’s the generally accepted custom, on Jezebel and other news outlets. As you probably know from the article above or if you have a working baseline understanding of American race relations, it’s an incendiary racial slur, and…

Suggestion: maybe delete the use of the n-word from your post as it’s unnecessary. I don’t think the article argues that Bill Maher is necessarily a racist, but as noted in the article above, the use of the word by Maher comes from a place of white privilege, and as Ice Cube said, the racial slur “has been used as a…

An actual line from goop: “If you’re plagued by issues like parasites or heavy metals, you might need a bit more than a standard clean eating protocol. Below, some advice on working through more complex problems.”

This Kathy Griffin situation has had me seething and is a prime example of why I’m hesitant to identify as a liberal/Democrat despite my politics aligning with them.

As we know more about her, her brand looks more and more tacky. Tweeting about champagne popsicles on Memorial Day? Tacky. Photo of herself in a ballgown with her baby-faced huckster of a husband’s hand on her ass? Tacky. Daddy is tacky, Stepmommy is tacky, her ghost-written book is tacky. Setting herself up with an…

I get so tired of hearing that people on food stamps should get a job when having a job is a fucking requirement to receive EBT.

And half the reason they’re on assistance is that their employer makes sure they can’t work over 30 hours and get those pesky benefits.

I can’t say I’ve ever heard of it being dangerous to starve the families of a bunch of people who have been heavily trained to fight and have ready access to guns, nor to leave them poor and treat them like dirt.

Bet you 50 bucks that none of the extra money being given to the military will go towards wage rises so military families no longer need the non existent food stamps.

Protip for idiot Republicans: people on food stamps work. Some of them are even serving their country in the military.

Apparently, they’re on it:

OMG...I just let me wife know that teenage logic (our daughter is 12) is “pleasingly circular” and she about laughed herself to death. Thank you for that.

I like this logic. It’s so pleasingly circular.

Yep, my 16 year old sister confirmed that this is because they are hyper aware of their online presence and want to be in control of it. It’s also a signal to your friends not to tag you either, which I get but...why are you posing for a picture in the first place? Why not just decline the photographer or turn your…

All the while, I’m sitting there, thinking that’s not what the damn numbers say.

It’s almost like Trump doesn’t give a flying fuck about the common man.

Maybe if we paint the robots brown, they’ll start railing against them instead of Mexican farmhands.
