..... I don’t know what you’re talkin’ bout, in my eyes Kate Dries is living her best. fucking. life.

Oh my gosh, thank you for sharing this with us. I hope that reading this helped, in some tiny itty bitty way, to not feel bad about your experience. Especially because you must be the absolutely most disciplined person in the universe to have lasted for 8 months on powdered ziti without the benefit of a giant glass of

Yes, the price is up there, but speaking as a 15 year Special Needs Coordinator, this is fantastic news. Normal is a word that should go the way of extinction. There is no such thing as normal as we so define it. We are all beautiful.

No I totally agree. I agree with like...99% of what is posted on this site. We’re on the same team.

there is some information on the demographics of the rapists that suggests that white men either make up a proportional amount of rapists (you would expect that if roughly 70% of the country is white, if each race raped proportionally, 70% of rapists would be white) or less than average (the rainn website says 52% or

It’s hateful to call out a group that is disproportionately responsible for raping women? I don’t think you get what “hateful” means. Just because its true and it hurts your feelings doesn’t make it “hateful”.

You realize that you don’t have to be racist to benefit from racism, right? Your white 8 year old kid might not be a racist and still not get shot by police for holding a toy gun in a playground. Your white dad might not be racist and he still won’t get choked to death by the cops. Your white neighbor might not be

As a white man, please stop hurting my feelings by pointing out that my race and gender consistently makes it difficult for women and people of color to live their fucking lives. It makes it hard to continue denying my privilege.

I’ve always thought of “White America” not in terms of white people but all the scaffolding in media, history and government that drives the white exceptionalism narrative. It’s silly but I’ve found that clarifying those terms helps to shift the debate. Mentioning White America is not a personal attack. That's

If you would like more info, another alumna and myself have been trying to get things trending on twitter and facebook. She’s also written a great roundup of our issues on her Kinja to make it easy to share. There’s info there to contact the school if you’d like to help. Additionally, two hashtags #ISupportSiada and #A

I had a roommate in college that only ate little kid food- spaghetti os, chicken tenders, French fries, ect. She was beautiful, very into running and physically fit. She literally got scurvy from not eating any fruit and vegetables. Literally scurvy- like a pirate. I thought maybe that would be a wake up call and she

Kids should be required to at least try anything before they reject it because “it looks funny,” though. I don’t agree with making kids eat everything they hate, but they damn sure shouldn’t get to sit in their plain-hamburgers-with-ketchup-and-maybe-plain-cheese-pizza comfort zone all the time (I’M LOOKING AT YOU, MY

I think it’s ok to have some aversions as an adult, but like, it can’t be to everything that’s not pizza and chicken nuggets (why yes I do have a friend like that, seriously, the man doesn’t like pasta, it’s weird). I have some foods I just hate- ketchup is one and it is fortunately rarely something that is required

I started bringing home sushi to my little brother when he was 6 yrs old, and after his first taste he couldn’t get enough. While some kids are definitely picky, I think a lot of adults just assume kids wont eat anything other than chicken nuggets and ketchup, or grilled cheese, or whatever. So, they inadvertently

Hey Jezzies.

Stop it. Stop RIGHT NOW.

Don’t cry! I love maxis because they hide unshaven legs.

Or that we require the enforcement of labor laws so people are paid just wages. Tipping is a hugely problematic system that does not improve worker treatment. Every evaluation of tipping indicates it’s racist and sexist as hell for workers and encourages racist and sexist treatment of customers.
