That’s the most jelly beans ever in one place at one time. Period.

I was in college when former NFL player Pat Tillman was killed by friendly fire in Afghanistan. There was this one douchnozzle who wrote an editorial for the school newspaper (and mind you this was in super liberal Western Mass.) that Tillman deserved to die because he chose to go fight in an unjust war. Well the…
Peaceful protests work for two reasons: 1) They shame the opposing moderates and 2) The threat that the next step is violent rebellion. Fascism and similar ideologies (in terms of violence to opponents) don’t have shame and treat any opposition as violent rebellion. They have to be met with force. I’m not suggesting…
Yes. Especially when you have the new President pounding phrases like “America first,” a call back to the America First movement which pressed the U.S. not to enter into WWII and sympathized with the Nazi regime.
Wish I had the video, but at my UNI on November 8th, there were borderline riots outside the freshman dorms. Everyone was shouting “fuck trump” but one IDIOT thought it was a good idea to rip his shirt off, put on an american flag bandana and stand in the middle of the crowd and shout in his HEAVY southern accent…
My late grandparents survived the Holocaust, so the fact that stories like this are still happening today is surreal if not entirely surprising. But I must admit I find the handwringing over whether or not it’s OK to punch Nazis to be kinda sickening. Dude believes that all non-whites should be removed from America in…
We have a yuge entitlement problem in education right now. NCLB and charters ruined functioning schools in areas of poverty, and widened gap of service. Public schools pulled their weight, even with massive cuts in funding, but the vilification of schools in poverty areas has done irreparable damage.
I know schoolteachers in MI who are absolutely aghast at the thought of her taking this position. She’s spent years decimating the Detroit public schools by diverting public funds to her own profit-making poorly performing religious charter schools, then using her money to block legislation aimed to shape up those…
Betsy DeVos reminds me of all the terrible parents my public school teacher father has told me horror stories about. Over his career, he’s experienced parents who have yelled at him, patronized him, asked him how much his salary is, tried to bribe him to give their kids extra time on tests or better grades, people who…
DeVos knows nothing of education which is more than likely the point of picking her. She is a joke but she still has a lot of power having fucked up education in Michigan. She needs to be stopped.
Maybe she should skip Sec. of Education and maybe just go be governor of Alaska.
Nothing indicates that she cares less about the born than pre born.
It’s like being furious about amputations. It’s an unfortunate medical procedure that is sometimes necessary, but no one gets riled up about Hippocratic oathes to “do no harm” when a surgeon is holding a scalpel (or even a bone saw).
“I knew that with Hillary, there would definitely be no hope for the unborn,” she explained. “But with him, I was very hopeful.” I’m so sick of these idiots.
They say they feel left out from a march with a feminist platform, but I bet they wouldn’t want Catholics for Choice co-sponsoring March for Life...
They were there to reclaim feminism for the anti-abortion movement, to use the language of feminism, but to recenter on “pre-born” women and the abortion industry. “We’re marching for the pre-born,” Lori told Jezebel. Both of them were unhappy about the unapologetically pro-choice stance of the Women’s March.
Actually, Sheila, the vast majority of fetuses are aborted before there is any observable sex.
