Don’t forget not backing them up when there’s a dispute with the customer! Policy be damned!

It’s like society wants you to have children and then it punishes you for having children and at the same time hates you if you don’t want to have children.

In an ideal world:

I feel like Jennifer Lawrence is currently experiencing the same backlash that Anne Hathaway experienced. Like, I log on one day and suddenly everyone is so fucking sick of her and she’s so goddamn annoying but I don’t recall anything that would make people feel that way. I mean, she dated an older guy and they did a…

This is depressing. Children shouldn’t have to demand common sense out of adults. Children shouldn’t be afraid to go to school. Children shouldn’t be begging for people to take steps to prevent them from being murdered.

If dead kids won’t help move gun policy along I don’t think anyone is gonna care if they are walking out of school.

I’m tired of hearing about this. The difference between Obama’s victory and Hillary’s loss was vanishingly small. You think you can’t do anything about this because you’ve already convinced the people who are like you. Do you talk to your taxi driver, your hairdresser, your relatives that live in Alabama and Florida?

I’m American and I hate to say it but I kind of agree. My dad was watching news last night and I was like what’s the point? We know what happened and motive isn’t really relevant. It’s torture/disaster porn.

This morning (and possibly yesterday) CNN started using the argument that the right to bear arms to revolt against a tyrannical government in the age of a government with nuclear weapons is absurd.

Agree completely.

I sort of get your point - it exactly feels like watching a good friend go back, again and again, to her abusive partner, and knowing you’re mostly helpless to do anything, because only they can make the decision to leave.

You couldn’t be more correct. TheI.S. is a diagrace.

I do understand what you mean. Even here at work, my co-workers and I are all like “oh dear..American... again... this is exhausting”. We are exhausted. Its extremely awful to see this happen to them.

YES YES YES!!

This is an extremely valid point. There’s something really gross and performative and disaster-porn-esqe about it, isn’t there?

Perhaps you’re American and don’t realize just how much American media permeates every single fucking thing, even for those who do not live in the USA. I cannot go on Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, any news site, TV channels, Jez, etc. etc. without being confronted with American media and American news. It’s inescapable.

Maybe I’m an asshole for saying this but...

“I need to succeed so she can succeed.” What a powerful message to send to kids about supporting each other. I can’t wait to see this.

We need something catchy instead of #thoughtsandprayers, like votes and calls. Don’t send a prayer, send a letter to your congressman, and threatened to never ever vote for them again unless they pass some comprehensive gun reform. Don’t go to church, take your church to the polls, and then have them register voters,…

 first, one guy calls her a kid and then agrees with the other douches about wanting to do her, like, creepy as fuck.
