I will speak only for myself.

Can we add “too judged”? Because parents that try to let their kids fall down and be more feral and learn from their mistakes get arrested now. Somewhere along the line we made imperfect parenting a crime.

this. is. fucking. insane.

No smoking in wide open outdoor areas doesn’t make a hell of a lot of sense, but one positive thing is the lack of butts lying around. It’s amazing to me that open littering is suddenly AOK if it’s a cigarette butt. You see it all the time! When else can you just throw garbage on the ground like that?

They *hired* her to teach a job she was qualified for then TOLD her she was going to teach a different grade then refused to pay her! I can’t believe you people are sticking up for the school here when they fucked her over ever which way from sunday.

She would have been the same age as me, and I remember her face on magazines every few years. I now live in Boulder (the city she was from) and I’m shocked when people don’t know who she is, I grew up on the coast and I feel like her murder marked my childhood.

Avoid LenaDunhamsTesticles down there; as though the name weren’t obvious enough, LDT is a pretty dedicated misogynist troll, spends most of his time on Jezebel and its sister sites harrassing Anna Merlan and anybody who suggests misogyny is real... then acts deliberately obtuse, refuses to acknowledge facts that run…

What can I say? There’s a lot of validity in the arguments here, but when you’re under a lot of financial pressure with two small kids (husband working a shitty warehouse job, on food stamps) you think you’re willing to compromise more than you actually are. We had no idea what was in the contract until we were…

We got married very, very young. ;) Another aspect of conservative Christianity with unforseen consequences.

Of course you can. I can also still be angry at Obama because of his support of the TARP before he was President and for being a little too much on the side of the neocons for my liking.

They don’t expect to find her at fault for Benghazi. They do expect to keep her ‘on trial’ till the election in order to create an air of ‘untrustworthy’ around her in order to damage her chances.

I am a Bernie Sanders supporter, but can we please drop this piece of shit narrative? You do understand that the vast majority of Congress voted for it, based on false information, correct? I don’t blame her for it, nor many others on the Dem side, honestly. The Republicans would’ve voted for it even if the…

I think Hillary looked Presidental af yesterday. It was really the first time I was like “yeah, she’d be good at that job”. I have mixed feelings on Hillary sometimes but she showed the fuck up yesterday. Well played.

Here’s the thing (having worked in Congress and politics for a long time): many elected officials are complete idiots (this doesn’t just apply to Congress). As in mind-numbingly dumb. They often have quite intelligent staffers who write their speeches/floor statements and actually meet constituents and special…

Policy-wise, I'm firmly in Bernie's camp but that doesn't mean that I can recognize what a shameful hit job they tried to pull on Clinton. If the DNC doesn't make an effort to go after every Republican member of this committee hard for this partisan-hack travesty in their reelection campaigns, they're damn fools as…

It doesn’t hurt that Clinton and Richards are about 19x smarter than anyone else in the room.

Hillary did better than anyone expected yesterday. There was a moment where she shot a glance at this Senator, I forget which one, after he turned his attitude up a little too loud and you could feel him shrinking in his seat. She may as well have screamed at him “I told everyone to check their fucking priviledge at…

I'm no Hillary Clinton supporter but she totally destroyed that. No surprise though.

This is an ok option if, 1) the thrift shop is close to you (for me $5 bus for others more if they needed to transfer) and 2) anything was even in your size and somewhat current. This is especially problematic for women where styles very obviously change. A red 80s pantsuit two sizes too big on a 25 year looks like a…

Very true.
