Honestly all I took away from those articles was "Macklemore and Ryan Lewis should shut up because they are straight and white."

Are you serious? Basically your issue is that they are white and straight. So shame on them for trying to speak up for human rights? WOW. How is he underscoring anyone's value?

One example from this story is if the uni thinks its best that the student take a leave of absence for mental health issues don't send them letters saying their financial aid is in jeopardy. That is just adding another burden and it seems pretty obvious that in these cases there should be one on one guidance provided…

See I think "fuckzoned" is when you are hanging out together and one of you wants a relationship but the other just wants sex.

Yea exactly. There has to be more information here...

This is exactly why we have different degrees of murder and manslaughter. I am REALLY curious as to why they are choosing to try her as an adult. Must do more research

Yea definitely sounds like debbie downer I dont want to be a part of the fun type. Oh well, boo on him
