We all know that if the shoe was on the other foot, no conservative voter would condemn a radical conservative shooter. She did her job, but she should have let them die. Being a bigger person has no purpose in conservative America. It is the scumbags who hold all the power and they got there by lying and holding the…

Because, you silly person, compassion is for losers, and only Winners get to run things. We do not value kindness, or giving, or humility. We value avarice and ruthlessness. A real Winner would have laughed and maybe mimicked her while she suffered, and then gone off to the golf course to tell his rich friends about…

I am so sorry you are going through this. Please do not judge yourself for feeling this way and know that being friendless has no bearing on your worth as a human being. It is incredibly difficult to connect with people and outside of romantic encounters there aren’t a whole lot of examples for initiating platonic…

Shit, I am so so sorry to hear this. I don’t usually feel able to comment on posts like this because I feel so out of my depth trying to reach a stranger who is that deep in despair with cliched platitudes, but this really struck me. I’m in the process of leaving a career I love due to a chronic health condition and I…

when you have $20 in the bank, and you need paper towels, you are going to buy the cheapest ones even if they are a bad deal rather than blow all your money on paper towels to last you a long time.

Oh, god, I remember those times. I’d gotten a bad sunburn and was in terrible pain on my back/shoulders. I went to go get some aloe, and my choices were: tiny tube of pure aloe for, $3, or a buy-one-get-one 50% off deal for a HUGE bottle of after-sun aloe (with lidocaine!) and a HUGE bottle of lotion for $8 total. The…

Sometimes, certain airports are just so hostile — Not a place anyone likes to feel fragile in, yet sometimes you just *are*. Like you’re just trying to make it to the connection, already feeling run down, looking for the least offensive $15-20 rip off meal... the scowls and bustle can so totally be overwhelming. :(

Yes. And not only the media gave her a pass — also the police, and the prosecutor’s office.

BUT WHERE IS ROB??

Wait a minute. Doesn’t “coming out” imply openly admitting you are gay? Caitlyn is gay now too? And please, don’t even try to pretend this isn’t all about appearance. She didn’t do anything BUT change her appearance, she didn’t perform some selfless act of heroism. It’s all about her and nothing else. Don’t try the…

I dislike Caitlyn not just because of her repeated negligence when driving, but also for the fact that she pretty much abandoned her first set of kids from her ex yet was a present parent for Kris’s kids. I hate when parents do that, neglect one family while being there for the next one. It’s so fucked up. She also…

And now YOU sound like the equivalent of “Hey guys, Zimmerman was acquitted, stop talking bad about him” with your obsession over what the law determines.

“Courage” would have been addressing the death she caused on a national stage instead of basking in praise. Let’s start treating transgendered people like we treat everyone else, perhaps that can begin when we stop swooning over Caitlyn’s appearance and focus on her actions instead.

It’s easy to be “courageous” when you’re wildly wealthy, not so much when you have to do it while living a normal life among regular people.

I appreciate and respect your position, Lilly. I consider causing the death of a person to be on par with coming out, or marriage, or divorce, or having children, in the large scheme of autobiographical narratives. When an event of that magnitude is being given so little weight in the actual articles, I’m personally…

Donna’s response to Kim Howe’s death is essentially: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

No. Clearly it is the time to talk about it, because people routinely bring it up in the comment sections of articles, as you yourself pointed out.
