totally totalitarian (alliteration aside, I completely agree). Looking back at school, I find it ridiculous that we had to pledge allegiance to a fucking piece of fabric before we could start our day and learn fractions and shit. That time would have been better spent teaching us the actual (not texas textbook glossed…

“Does she even care about America?” I mean she gave up her childhood to train through literal blood, sweat, and tears in a sport so our country could be best represented in the Olympics not once but twice.

Oh, FFS, Ted Cruz, can you just not be weird for three goddamn seconds?

An orange Hitler is egging his supporters to assassinate the first female presidential candidate of a major party but yes, your energy is much better spent being outraged by Gabby Douglas’ lack of arm movement.

Maybe her husband/coach or the Chicago Bears defensive line should have taught her how to be a patriot.

I, for one, am glad to see us Americans continuing our long tradition of complaining about bullshit, even in the face of victory.

I’m 26 and people tell me I look young, I’m gonna start flashing this picture for comparison. I’m not convinced this isn’t a photo of 2 10 year olds stacked on top of each other in a suit

He’s definitely 12. Or possible a vampire. Those are the only explanations for that picture.

Am I so old that 20-somethings look twelve to me, or does that 20-something actually look twelve?

The thing about Team Sex is that you always know someone will come in first, we just never know if everyone will finish.

You wanna change your mind about retiring from being an elite athlete? Go for it.

I appreciate that you are making a joke about Pokemon go being stupid or lame, but you’re not being empathetic to how hurtful the constant message of “these things aren’t for you/people who look like you” can be. It’s not just one game its a feeling of being excluded or devalued by society.

I know it was a throwaway comment by her and carries the taint of internalized misogyny, but I think it’s time to just own that whole “It’s a woman’s prerogative to change her mind.” (har de har har) thing. Yes, it is my prerogative to alter my initial decisions based upon changing circumstances and new information.…

I mean, as ways to say “Fuck you, it’s none of your business” go
It isn’t bad

But what about Life?! Marco Rubio cares about Life. And he understands the sanctity of Life a lot better than all of the families who are worried about having a child with severe brain abnormalities. He understands Life so well that he voted against Equal Right for Individuals with Disabilities (Cause somehow Equal…

Dear Marco Rubio, Fuck you. (Back to the Olympics.)

“If I’m going to err, I’m going to err on the side of life,” he said.

I was about to say the same thing. Don’t they suck? Didn’t Jay Cutler just get named the worst quarterback in the NFL right now? (I can’t remember the source. Deadspin?)
