You can’t. That’s how you know it’s good.

Me too. I’m in Boston, and if I had known that Boston had a NWHL team I would love to go see them play. I’m a female hockey fan, whose father never let me play ice hockey because he thought it was too dangerous, so I’d love to live vicariously through these players, and support them with attendance.

Don’t forget, it’s de jure vs. de facto. Sure, it may not be legal, but with jobs (and career progression) on the line, who can actually take the risk of reporting?

I personally hate Cheetos so the term works out great for me! :P

Yes! I campaigned for Hillary, and now I’m working to be a contributing member of the Democratic Party, from the local level up, starting with becoming a member of my local Young Democrats. I believe in the party’s ideals, and want to help it continue through the next generation.

435 “party hacks”? You mean the members of Democratic State Committees that were elected to represent the Democratic Party on a national scale? And who got to be on the Democratic State Committee because they were elected from their local Democratic councils? The DNC is made up of members elected from all the way down

We may snark about pop culture and rage against politicians, but we support each other!

When I was in the UK during college, I hooked up with a guy who had a Confederate flag draped on the wall in his bedroom. I was shocked as soon as I saw it, and told him why it was absolutely terrible. He tried to explain that he saw the Confederacy as tragic heroes (which is apparently not so uncommon in the UK), but

You’d think......and I’m going out on a limb here.....but you’d think that business owners and CEOs would universally be in favor or the public option.

And wasn’t around the time the Grateful Dead had the tour that became known as ‘The Tour from Hell’?

I loved Courtney Cox’s solution after she married David Arquette. She simply went by ‘Courtney Cox Arquette.’ When they divorced, she was then able to drop the ‘Arquette’ and go back to just Courtney Cox.
I myself think it’s better to just stick with the name marriage or not, but it is up to each individual how s/he

Yes! I mean, I know it’s her choice whether or not she keeps her name or takes on her husband’s name, but she can do that personally and still keep her professional name the same.

I’m trying to think of the line from the sonnet… ‘And heavily from woe to woe tell o’er / The sad account of fore-bemoaned moan / Which I new pay as if not paid before’.

I read the Daily Mail article (cringe), and while they knew Kate Middleton was a fan, she wasn’t a big fashion icon until the engagement. The designer had no idea that Middleton would wear the dress in the announcement. The designer even mentioned that she could have bought it at a shop, not directly from the

Actual tears streaming down my face crying over this support from the Muslim community to the Jewish community. I’ve been calling for my fellow Jews to stand up and support our Muslim brothers and sisters against Islamophobia. Our two groups have a ridiculous amount in common and we should be standing side-by-side.

And now to quote the great Angela Davis in support of intersectionality: “All the Women Are White, All the Blacks Are Men, But Some Of Us Are Brave.”

I believe it’s thanks to awesome soundbites like this is why Rachel was chosen to be the next Bachelorette.

These anti-Semitic threats and attacks should serve to remind us Jews in America that we absolutely must stand up for the rights of minority communities and the social justice that is a key part of Judaism. As a group, the Jewish community is pretty successful and do not suffer the same racism as people of color (i.e.

And, I mean, us Jews are practically white, so there’s no reason for Trump to hate us. /s
