These “officers of the law” have made up everything in this case, I am convinced of it.

Republicans; even when they do the right thing, it is for all the wrong reasons.

Okay so I want to be all feminist enraged...but Komen is shit...

A friend of mine has vitiligo, she got a script tattoo on her forearm that just says: “it’s called vitiligo”. It's fantastic.

Alright, so obviously this installation is meant to grab attention and upset people. I think if it were done by a black artist with the consent of Brown’s whole family, it could maybe work. But a white artist and Brown’s father not being on board pushes this into horrible territory.

Direct cash payments to the poor are—by far—the most effective method of fighting endemic poverty. Not only do they build on local systems of knowledge, but moreover they are far more cost efficient and much easier to manage. All with added benefit of stripping out the disdainful paternalism to permeates so many other…

This is awesome and so accurate. The popularity of research into “resilience” has gotten a ton of traction in recent years, but the truth is it shakes out to be another way to blame cycles of poverty on impoverished individuals rather than the institutions and power dynamics holding them back in the first place.

Maybe this can penetrate the racist conservative fucking racist mindset. Don’t care about the lives of anyone who doesn’t look just like you? It’s gonna cost you money, assholes. Help us change policing to save your wallet if you can’t bring yourself to do it out of basic humanity.

Take it from the Police fucking pension fund.

Thanks Poitras, for doing this. Our own government staring down at us like we live in their petri dish, poking us with their probes as we go about our business like we are all suspects to blow our own home apart and hurt our own people. And we’re not supposed to talk about it or ask about it either, just supposed to…

Kelly, you clearly have no exposure to the Wide Eyed World of Blythe. Blythe dolls are these adorably weird, gigantic-headed dolls from Japan that are based on a doll inspired by Margaret Keane paintings in the 1970’s that was in production for a year. Now those original 1970’s models are worth a small fortune and…

This was a missed opportunity to talk about the problem of the gender binary. While it is FANTASTIC that people are finally more aware and accepting of transgender people, we’re still failing to recognize the problems inherent in imposing a rigid binary, instead of recognizing a spectrum where most people fall more…

Wow.

Sorry, I don’t buy that teenage girls- in an era when rape wasn’t as clearly defined as it is now- would’ve beat up an older man in a position of power who was capable of destroying their careers and reputations (not to mention capable of sexually assaulting them, too). A more realistic scenario is that they saw what…

I am so glad 50 has to pay for leaking that sex tape. Revenge porn has a price.

Me too. Sorry. I don’t care what anyone says I don’t think having to “bust it open” to someone should just be considered regular job. I respect the hustle and think everyone in the sex industry should be able to get fair wages, healthcare and the like, but the fact that some stripping their clothes off for someone…

Then they need to quit their fucking jobs and find something else to do.

I once spent like an hour reading about hyena clitorises and it is always my go-to interesting fact for when I am a little bit drunk. ‘DUDE, DID YOU KNOW ABOUT HYENA GENITALS’ is generally somewhere between ‘Gregory Peck was a stone-cold fox’ and ‘Bulbasaur is the best starter Pokémon, who wants to fight me’ on my…

And yet this talking jar of Walgreens discount bronzer is still #2 in the polls of my original home state of NH. Wtf, people?

I found it:
