I don't really understand the fear and rage about being more inclusive. It's not like white male characters are going anywhere.

It's really hilarious that the angry mob that follows her essentially helped make her all the more relevant. Instead of silencing her as they'd hoped they'd do, they helped make her become ever bigger a deal than they could handle. They will whine about how she doesn't belong on Colbert's show, and yet they're much…

This is what worries me.

Thankfully, Pennsylvania isn't close (vote anyway.)

Burn horrible companies that treat everyone like shit, burn!

A lot of my hipster douche friends that eat organic/ healthy go on and on about how unhealthy soda is, sometimes when they're smoking or drinking heavily.

I'm in favor of a ban (fwiw, I smoke). Buy your pot, make your own edibles. It's way, way too easy for kids to get a hold of pot candy and other treats, whether they know they're pot-laden or not. Small children are particularly susceptible. It's very easy to ingest too much, and while it's not deadly, it's not…

Didn't enjoy Pitt all that much, it was too dark and I don't know its setting was kind of boring to me. Great story though.

To be fair, I am not actually Fidel Castro.

I think she's cute as a button, but her song is fucking annoying and full of sexist bullshit masquerading as "body positivity."

I worked in a skilled nursing facility on the rehabilitation staff, and we all had to sign these. I read the fine print and realized that I was signing off on something that barred me from working from any "competitor" for three years after I left the current company. Taken strictly, this would have meant that I could…

Not a lawyer. It is legal as far as you can put whatever you want in a contract. After seeing some of my physician friends completely ignore non-competes and win in court, I doubt it would fly if anybody challenged it. That may vary by county, but the courts around here are not big on keeping people out of work or…

On the other hand, Kickstarters for people and organizations with which I was already familiar have been quite successful and given me exactly what I was expecting. A local vaudeville act now has a tent for putting on circus acts. A band I like made their album. A dance troupe I know did an overseas cultural exchange…

There was a guy I was into in between high school and college, but I knew that I was about to meet a ton of new people so I told him I didn't want to officially "date". Still, we basically talked as if we were dating. Then within a few weeks of getting to college I met someone that I really enjoyed being with, was in…

See, I am totally on board with "factory farming isn't ok." I can get behind that point of view. But this shit, just wow.

I must ask... what exactly do they serve for North Korean food? Is it the sprawl of opulence and Hennessey that the glorious leader consumes or is it dirt, rocks and sadness that the peasants eat?

Maybe Jon Rubin would be happier if they made it more authentic...by setting up a blockade that prevents supplies from even entering the restaurant.

I live in the Midwest currently (a super yuppie area) and I constantly and looking for ways to describe my hometown. I am definitely going to steal this.

You haven't been called a self-hating Jew in the comments yet? Impressive. Any time one of my Jewish friends even tries to make people see the humanity on both sides of the conflict, he's always called that.

I am literally in Pittsburgh and eating cheesy covered potatoes for dinner. This checks out.
