They have no compassion for human beings who aren’t “tough” enough to break the cycle. They just see someone who was too high and selfish to get on birth control. I don’t know this woman’s story and am not here to tell it, but I know the stories of women I have met and I am here to say our system is NOT working. These…

All of your solutions assume a vehicle that can transfer her and the tank as well as someone knowledgeable enough to make sure everything is set up correctly. And while you do provide some very good solutions, I think you’re solving the wrong problem. The electricity should not have been cut off. 

I’m sorry if me advocating for someone to save her life rather than depending on a utility company to do so makes me sound like a moron.

A piece of advice: never side with the corporations/companies. Because they don’t give two shits about you other than your ability to pay. Have you ever heard of the saying, “There but for the grace of god, go I”?

Not the electric company’s problem? Fuck you to hell and back. Trump doesn’t pay millions of dollars in bill and they make him president. But don’t pay your electrical bill and your entire life is suddenly worth nothing at all? Sucks to be you.

Awww thank you! I know, I so want to “come out” on here, but it’s also a lovely, precious place for me to spout off anonymously. 

SAME. I am a candidate running for office in the midwest. I love Duckworth. But this mealy-mouthed, tepid, timid approach of other Dem candidates and of Dems in power, are driving me to DRINK. I want to go BOLD! But this free-floating fear is real and believe me when I tell you it is not limited to republican men! The…

I think you’re looking too far ahead. I’m going to volunteer for Phil Bredesen this summer & fall, hoping he makes it to the Senate and flips Corker’s seat blue. He was a POPULAR Democratic governor in a red state, and a lot of Republicans voted for him. I mean goddamn, he cut health care in Tennessee! And yet, I have…

36 not American but very much nodding along to what you’re saying. 

I’m with you. Southern, a couple years older than you, can’t afford ACA compliant healthcare, my husband’s health issues will bankrupt me one day, my job is slowly dying and each year our household income is less than the last. We need some new political blood and we need to take a hard look at what kind of America we…

I’m with you. 33, son of northeast conservatives who have voted for Pat Buchanan and candidates from the constution party because they found mainstream republicans to be too little. I remember the super predator comment well and remember feeling uneasy about it. I turned to socialism because when I was younger, I…

Like many white people from the rural south raised by Republicans, I primarily align with Democratic Socialist policies and positions. I’m 33 years old. I remember 1998 – the lynching year, Matthew Shepherd and James Byrd, Jr. Columbine happened during my Freshman year of high school. How safe are today’s children…

As someone who is concerned about the morality and environmental effects of large scale animal farms and adjusts their diet accordingly, and as someone who has lived the majority of her life in the heartland of those farms and thus is subjected to so, so, SO many sanctimonious FB rants from dairy farmers about the…

HARD disagree.

I am SURE someone has written an exhaustive hyper detailed breakdown of her gown down to which trees the silkworms that made the silk ate, but a quick look at the gown shows a likely un-stretchy duchesse type silk satin (no stretch), a portrait neckline, and with a sleeve length that is AFAIK dictated by…

I understand that, but we’re not in prison with no control over our cellmates.

Just lump a bunch of vaguely related ideas into one initiative so you can “Do Less.”

When I saw the headline of this article, I thought you were mocking her grammar as a non-native English speaker. I could have never guessed that “Be Best” would be the actual slogan of.... whatever this is.

Be Best be stupid. Be Best be making grammatical mistakes. Be Best could have been “Be Your Best” pretty easily, but Be Dumb is what the Trump Administration Be About.

If you want children to be the best, then you’ll have to fire Betsy DeVos.
