    Oi!

    So what about folks who cannot find gainful employment? Good for you for liking your health insurance but what about the rest? Oh you only care about issues that affect you? For a developed nation we are despicable in our approach to healthcare, and your individualistic attitude perfectly exemplifies that.

    Live to Troll sounds like a weird underground metal band. So does Shit Any Oxygen. Dude, you're good.

    Even so, does two possibly women being on this track not make it misogynistic? Kira seems to acknowledge Black Flag being her favorite band, was asked to be in it, participated for many albums, until she had enough with the misogyny. I dunno, I wasn't there. Considering that you know the song and have put thought into

    Dude, I totally hear you. Black Flag are so good. Henry gives me the same faith but I also have to admit that I, as a young female punk, was influenced by punk music and was trying to fit into the boys club by being mean to other women. Not cool and I, like Henry, feel like I evolved from it. So I hope young asshole

    Agreed! He's really great now. I think he exemplifies that change is possible.

    I agree with you and was acknowledging that he evolved. I love Henry now and think he's really smart and socially conscious. The point was, I think he exemplifies how individuals can overcome misogyny and that point was missed on this site because not a lot of folks know Black Flag. So stop jumping to conclusions.

    Eh, I disagree. It might not directly be about rape but it sure as shit isn't about two people giving into what feels good. The hypothetical woman in the song is being as pressured into sex (while under the influence of alcohol) as can be. I grew up listening to punk music and would reconsider the meaning of that song

    THANK YOU. I love Black Flag but SHIT. He's being deified on this site and no one seems to know that he evolved into being compassionate after being a misogynist.

    We use them at the syringe exchange where I work to distribute sterile cotton for safe injection practices (small round pieces of cotton to absorb liquid for an easier draw). But I guess that isn't really the non-drug reason you may be looking for, lol.

    AND misguided teachers and school admins. Sorry, the system won't let me edit.

    This situation angers and upsets me so much. I feel this situation exemplifies the culture and ethos of the U.S. in general, and the need for our education system to cultivate compassion and critical thinking (a la Freire) and not to rely on a moral framework to be built by horribly misguided parents and peers.

    I'm 30 and a woman. My boyfriend is 20 and a man. I will not argue a thing about evolutionary psychology or preference. I just love him and didn't expect this to be my life path (I was always previously in "normal" age range relationships). Would you like to call me a predator? Or wrong? Or gross? Or not worthy of

    Green day is lame. The Clash are eh. Therefore, this study pertains to me none-whatsoever and I will keep dating my ten-year junior boyfriend. Minor Threat for life.

    So, the Casey Anthony case is a tough one for the generation of this scenario since it is largely believed that she is guilty so please take this as hypothetical and NOT about Casey Anthony. Okay, so I am struggling with how unfair I think it would be if a person was truly innocent, was accused of murder, had to hire

    Never said it was a perfect match, obviously there are multiple differences (time, place, implementation, regime, motivation, tactics). It had to do with both communities having suffered genocide which is the crux of the comparison, and Germany actually admits and feels shame for it (regardless of whether ancestors

    Agreed. I'm sure we could list all of the things more offensive than appropriating Native dress but since it's what the article is about, I went with it.

    Ugh you're the terrible person who commented on the article about race in fashion week. You're the worst kind of racist, the kind who denies it. I was going to comment something regarding Native communities identifying themselves that way, and respect, etc., but that is clearly beyond you. Romney 2012, ammirite?

    I work in substance abuse and cannot tell you how common it is for drug use to have been initiated by parents, and I'm not talking about weed. It is such a complex condition and the world needs to reconsider its ways of addressing it. "Targeting" in utero is not one of those ways. Increasing access to effective

    Thank you. I was gonna post something about German hipsters dressing in formal Jewish attire and how that would NEVER fly in Germany. They actually feel shame for their past rather than trying to rationalize and glorify it.

    Teach me please. And let's not play ignorant.
