I said this in a comment that will probably say in the grays because Dirt Bag is no longer that fun and therefore is less popular, but I live with my mom because (like Pete) I have a serious, chronic mental illness. I am also employed and we share living expenses. But no one cares about me as much as my mom does, and…

So what? Maybe he likes his mom? Maybe she keeps him grounded. I truly think that people who haven’t lost a parent can’t understand how much that experience makes you value the one you have left.

As I tell my kids all the time, nothing really great is easy.  Having kids, to me, is great, and it’s also the hardest thing I’ve ever done or likely ever will do.  

The problem isn’t that she makes food and sells it. It isn’t even a problem that she makes Chinese food. The problem is that she generalized Chinese food as unhealthy slop that makes you bloat. 

Chinese food is literally the easiest way for me to get my veggies. I have a limited pallet (Autism so certain food items make my skin crawl. I literally can’t eat applesauce without wanting to vomit) and MOST places I can get food from don’t actually include much in the way of veggies? Like at all.

The only “bad” food is food that has *gone* bad (i.e. rotten or moldy food).

My grandfather died when I was in elementary school and when I was in college my grandmother started dating the widowed husband of one of her close friends. They knew each other’s kids and had known each other’s spouses since college. She says her friend must have planned it to make sure there was someone to keep an…

I’m really not 100% sure what the back-and-forth tone is doing here. “Is publishing this a good idea or a bad idea, who knows; she has publicly demonstrated a desire to change but is change even possible; cancel culture is bad, she’s canceled; I don’t want to insult her, she’s a grifter.”

Did you just write a 4,500 word story about how a young woman who has become a figurehead for the resistance for other young women once wrote some bitchy anonymous emails when she was 23?

can anyone give a TLDR? I got about a third of the way through before I gave up looking for the thread

All its missing is the Young Turks spending a good day blaming the establishment media for this....somehow.

Bernie Sanders supporters acting like assholes? Check. Bernie Sanders supporters being completely irrational about the Clintons? Check. Bernie Sanders supporters pulling the focus to themselves and making discussion about the actual issue nearly impossible? Check. How much do you want to bet at the planning meeting…

These protesters were wearing Bernie shirts. To them the Clintons are guilty of everything under the sun.

If you agree with the protesters about Clinton’s rhetoric contributing to this massacre, can you tell me how? I don’t get it.

Those fragile white people are just trash. They have a problem with some paper cutout, but not with the police brutality that catalyzed the unfair workplace practices against a worker in the system into a symbol of resistance, oh, no

It could be, and stay with me here, he’s nice to her and makes her laugh.

That documentary seems to be about two tangentially related things: animal abuse by the tourism sledding industry and whether or not dogs trained for sledding in the iditarod is inherently abusive.

The tone of her book is very different from the tone of her tweets. It’s a really compelling read but can be bleak at times, and mostly is not about dogsledding.

He’s successful, funny, and attractive. How complicated is it?

Now? In this weather?
