Bold words, someone ought to hold him to it.

I was almost excited the other day when I saw this, but then felt upset that they were lumping the arts all in together.
Literary analysts and Linguists have more in common with scientists than they do with visual artists.
I don’t know why we can’t just respect that specializing in anything is difficult. Being an…

“Take on a victim mentality.”

Whatever happens from that point on, you’ve already been a victim. Whatever mentality you have is that of a victim. My point is that ‘victim’ is not, and should never be made into, a bad word. Victim just means that something shitty happened to you. Turning it into a bad word and implying…

But it is incredibly cruel to those who don’t have a choice, or who aren’t able to defend themselves.
Not everyone who is victimized survives. Many victims die, or are so hurt or traumatized they can’t defend themselves. And those people are not bad people. It’s not their fault.
Empowering one group at the expense of…

Ben Carson: Proof you can major in a STEM Field, get a doctorate in that field, and still be a fucking moron completely incapable of analytical thought.

Dude...De Niro is like 72 to Hathaway’s 32.

“But if you don’t play your cards right, we won’t marry you!”

Dude, that’s the definition of playing my cards right. Nobody wants to be married to any of those guys.

Yeah. People blamed that shutdown on the president. Because people are morons.

I met my now husband when I was like 29. He was 25. By going younger, I found everything I wanted in a relationship. Someone who’d go 50/50 on housework, watch stupid movies with me, and who liked my dog. Older dudes have old world attitudes about dating, and I just wasn’t willing to clean some old dude’s house for…

Good. Maybe they help dudes last to a full orgasm inducing time.

....there is no universe in which a piece of chicken qualifies as a meal. Vegetables are required. And yeah, I existed for long periods of time on tofu and rice, but didn’t exactly ‘thrive’.

Yeah, but also groceries in New York are more expensive. I moved up to Brooklyn a while back after managing in rural no-where on less than a hundred a month in grocery bills.
Even buying pantry items off of amazon, hauling more Trader Joe’s than a beast of burden and visiting three separate grocery stores where I had…

I’m not sure I accept the premise that anyone accused of domestic violence should be fired/ prevented from working.
I agree it’s a serious allegation, therapy should happen, trials should occur and victims supported, but there aren’t really any industries where we straight up fire people because they were accused.…

:/ I wish I cared about fitness. I just don’t. I like cycling and climbing and that’s pretty much it.

Since the accounts varied wildly between what Hope said happened and what her family said happened the USWNT realized it might be best to let the legal system play out...given that they don’t actually have the resources to gather evidence, collect testimony, and have a trial.
This seems reasonable to me. (It looks…

We don’t kick men off the NFL for domestic violence charges. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap…

That all happened over a year ago, well before the Ray Rice incident, and she already stood trial for the incident. She was suspended for something like 30 days. This was all because she MIGHT have been the main perpetrator and before she actually got to stand trial.
We had a video of Ray Rice punching the shit out of…

I would actually love a list of these subreddits. I’ve tried using reddit a few different times, and it’s always terrible. Even seemingly benign subreddits like cycling seem to devolve to misogyny with little provocation.

Damn. With all these ‘whores’ everywhere, one would think you’d have something better to do than troll. I mean, if you just like taking verbal abuse I’m sure you can find someone who shares that fetish.

The STEM field worship is truly bizarre. We have created a society where everyone believes that they cannot do math and that they can write.
My husband (math degree) gets treated like a wizard who could probably do anything he puts his mind to, and I (English degree) get treated like a dreamer who got a degree in…
