I don’t usually resort to vulgarity, but in this case, it’s appropriate. You can fuck right off with that nonsense.

You have to look at it from the perspective of what the other side is getting out of this, and you have to keep in mind that they’re nihilists who only care about winning elections, and also that their primary strategy has been to divide and conquer. It would be a mistake to focus solely on the substance of what…

I have a tinfoil hat theory. What if the army of the dead aren’t the bad guys? We know that they were created via magic spell by the elf people beyond the wall to defend them. I was musing that perhaps the dead are single-mindedly, unstoppably, at all costs, coming for the Lanisters on the iron throne because their…

I agree that the official response needed to be much stronger. But, I also wanted to throw out there that the purpose of these attacks is likely, in part, designed to divide the party, not just to attack Omar. Everything about this issue is intellectually dishonest and strategic on their end. They don’t care about…

Dems allow themselves to be led around by the nose by Republican propaganda. Republicans have learned that they can flat out lie, and Democrats will respond with consideration as if we were hashing out a legitimate concern. You don’t fight them by engaging them on the battleground they chose with their intellectual…

I would prefer if we only learned cursive. It’s so much faster to write in cursive and it’s more beautiful. I also don’t remember it taking very much time to learn.

It’s the wedding dress incarnation of dictator chic.

There is a place for legal recourse where truancy is concerned, though we also have to recognize the rich tapestry of institutionalized unfairness which traditional surrounds it. I say this as a kid who had truancy issues in high school because my parents were consumed by purely personal problems (tumultuous…

Can we talk about how this is the most hideous wedding dress in American history? It’s like she pinned a feather duvet around her waist, yanked a curtain off the wall and wrapped it around her head, and called it a day. Money really can’t buy taste. Yes, this is a total shitpost, but it’s not even half as mean as…

It’s a testament to Jude Law’s skill as an actor that all I see now is a diabolical antichrist, even when he’s wearing a speedo.

It’s confounding that these bros don’t understand that the reason why this has blown up, and the reason why the story won’t die, is their fault. It’s their inability to drop the ego, take in feedback from women, engage with it, sincerely apologize, and vow to change that makes it a necessity for us to keep this issue…

I’ve never understood why flight attendants are expected to wear such constricting and uncomfortable clothing, full stop. If, heaven forbid, there is ever an emergency, they’re there to handle the situation. Give me a flight attendant in khakis and a polo who can unfurl an emergency slide and evacuate passengers with…

You’re not fooling anyone. This is ugly behavior, both because you’re trying to cast doubt on a woman’s legitimate concerns by maligning her character and because you’re stirring up division that isn’t even there. Gross.

The teachable moment is this: ask before you pet people. And also this: “I did then what I knew how to do. Now that I know better, I do better.” Guys, some of you didn’t know, and we understand that (within reason, of course). But now you do know, so do better.

You see Biden as our only chance of beating Trump? Really? I think that’s silly.

That’s how you catch Trump Disease and wind up looking like you’ve superglued a dead ferret to your noggin. 

I feel that what’s confusing this conversation is the tone of the story in the press vs what Flores actually said about the incident. She explicitly made it clear that she didn’t feel it was sexual harassment. She was upset that he violated her personal space in what she described as a non-sexual way. Obviously, it’s…

I have a zero tolerance policy for Ikea. It’s the furniture equivalent of Forever 21. I prefer to buy something used (usually for less money) that’s made out of solid hardwood and will last for 50+ years over Ikea’s future landfill fodder.

I use hemp seed oil on my face and love it (just straight oil which I buy from the food oil section of my local hippie co-op grocery store). It’s noncomedogenic, non-greasy once absorbed, and inexpensive.
