I don’t want to seem like I’m fat shaming or whatever, because I’m really not, and the points Kelly is raising are valid and true. But it still kind of appears to be a fact that obesity is a risk factor in severe Covid.

My physical fitness plan, honed after decades of experimentation and research:
1. Eat less
2. Use the stairs
3. Gardening is good for the body and the mind

He was the co-author for the only climate bill in the previous 25 years, the Waxman Markey bill in 2009, where they proposed to cap carbon & other GHG emissions, and for that he’ll always have my respect. It passed the house and failed in the senate. 

That was my thought too. Although, if so, they got the hemisphere wrong. (Svalbard is in the north.)

The name seems like an homage to His Dark Materials - where Lyra is the heroine, and a lot of action takes place in the Arctic Circle...

Loved her since Reno 911 and she has been doing great in the industry.

Peak, peak, peak little dick energy right there

Calling the Democrats radical leftists seems to be the only plan they have. It’s straight out of the 1968 playbook and the only history that they have shown any knowledge of. 

I’m sure Jezebel would be flattered to learn they are capable of “tanking” any candidate.

Okay, cool. Just like I hope Biden is the last gasp of Boomer, Reagan-era Democrats who think you have to cosplay as Republicans to win elections (you would think so since he’s 78, but here came Pete Buttigieg so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯), I hope Harris and Klobuchar are the last gasp of politicians (or at least Democrats) building…

This is my shocked face. It was the obvious choice. It’s not the choice that progressives might have wanted but Biden is obviously trying to blunt the Trump Law&Order narrative. Besides, when President Biden has a stroke, or is otherwise incapacitated, I think she would be a fine President. 

No one likes it. Everyone is not special. Wear...the...fucking...masks.

God. Wear a fucking mask. This is not about your assault. It is the worst thing that could ever have happened to you. And it truly sucks. And fuck that guy/girl/human. But, you know what?  This isn’t about that. And we all have traumatic shit we are dealing with right now. Wear a mask or stay the fuck home.

Yeah- we saw enough in Tiger King to show that apparently these big cat mills are connected enough to provide animals to Hollywood. There’s a different debate about whether there’s a way to humanly provide trained wild animals to film sets but there’s a good possibility that Cardi B & Megan financed some bad people to…

People don’t like Carole Baskin, so they’ll likely look for a way to laugh this off, but she’s not wrong. The animal entertainment industry is pretty fucked up and has very poor standards for animal welfare. The big cats in that video are likely from an animal entertainment company that makes money buying/selling cats…

This just seems so stupidly short sighed on the part of Conde Nast/BA. I used to watch at least one of the BA videos daily as my daily inoculation against COVID-induced depression, but stopped as soon as their shitty practices came to light; the fact that they offered the BIPOC talent so much less even AFTER…

THIS! It’s especially dis-congruous with the fact that the states has such a high rate of christianity. I don’t recall anything in the bible about blessed be the money changers and all that.  

Eat the rich, there’s no need for billionaires to exist. Their wealth is built on the backs of their employees.

The aggressively conservative bent in this thread reminds me of an old episode of Star Trek (that’s right, I’m going nerdy with this one) where a character says something along the lines of: ‘Ferengi don’t try to end exploitation of workers, they try to join the ruling class so that one day they can exploit others.’…

Watch the conservatives come out in droves.
