You know what? Im not sure this is genuine. Devils advocacy is often an excuse for people (dudes usually) to express thin shitty ideas, suspicious defensiveness, and dismissals regarding serious issues that usually effect minority groups. People who resort to mass violence do so often because they’ve adopted the…

THE ISSUE IS NOT MENTAL ILLNESS. The numbers are clear: the overwhelming majority of these mass shooters are DISAFFECTED WHITE MEN with an axe to grind, usually with Nazi style leanings.
I’ve been struggling to articulate my feelings about Milo, but this does a good job. A part of me has always felt a little bad for him because it’s so painfully obvious that he just hates himself for being a gay man and his whole shtick is about that.
All it would take is for a clever Democrat to shift how MAGA is perceived. You use the same basic rhetoric the GOP uses but shifted to make the GOP seem like the bad guys and con artists. The openly racist jack holes are a lost cause so no sense in trying to bring them around. But others might change if you sow doubt…
Completely agree re: friction. Also, I feel way sweatier when I work out in loose pants, because I can feel it dropping down my legs. Also, control top pants are awesome when running. It’s like a sports bra for my muffin top.
Came here to say the same thing. I don’t even workout (though I should), but I do pace around my house for a myriad of different reasons (that’s a comment for another post) and when I know I’m going to do this I ALWAYS change from my comfy sweatpants to my tighter yoga pants/leggings/etc, because there’s way less…
You don’t owe me an explanation about anything, but since you brought it up, I care a lot less about how you use your SNAP benefits, and more about the circumstances that allow you to home school your children while receiving SNAP. I’m sincerely happy to give you, or any complete stranger, the benefit of the doubt,…
Let’s not pretend that Amazon and other companies are allowing people to bring their dogs into work because they care about employee happiness. They are doing it because employees will work longer hours if they don’t have to go home to take care of their dogs.

My favorite.
People’s resilience and ability to not be physically harmed by words is not a reason to perpetuate demeaning and hateful expressions, even if they’ve lost some of that ugliness over time. I get what you’re saying here (they’re only words, right?), but this concept of “people just shouldn’t take it the wrong way” is…
Quick explanation in the off-off-off chance you’re serious: No one is alleging that Daniels is a prostitute. No one has EVER alleged that. She is, if the allegations are true, a person with whom Trump had an extramarital affair. On it’s own, that’s no big deal. But here’s the rub (so to speak): if this is true, it’s…
As a European, let me assure you that we mostly think of ye as panicked hostages trapped in a burning wreck. (Unless you’re really rude and loud, then we roll our eyes and lose the sympathy!) We know the Russians stole the election for this ass-clown who thought it was a reality contest. We know there’s a vocal racist…
Yes. Checking out feels wrong, as another commenter said below, but I’m not enough of a masochist to stay checked in. So I take the ol’ Catholic church/rich white guy route: I buy my way out of guilt. I’m giving more and more strategically than ever before, and I now have what has essentially morphed into a swear jar…
Anyone else stuck in this weird spot where you’re generally happy/hopeful about the direction your own life specifically is headed, but the state of the world and the direction its heading constantly drags you down, so you want to just completely ignore and shut out the news, but you feel an obligation to keep…
I can’t believe anyone is calling this human ‘idol,’ regardless of her side eye skills.
E!’s defense is laughable. Like I want to laugh until it ends in screaming.
John Kelly thinks that the Civil War happened because the two side couldn’t compromise... on slavery. John Kelly thinks the North should have comprised and let Southern states keep slavery. Fuck John Kelly.
Yesssss! All the kitties!
Dunno why people still believe the stereotype that women who remain single are depressed and pathetic. All the single women I know are beautiful, athletic, successful and/or completely able to do their own thing at all times. In fact, the women I find myself feeling most sorry for are those trapped in bad…
In this piping hot exclusive (hell-oooo) from tonight’s season finale of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Rebecca Bunch (Rachel Bloom) begrudgingly accepts her fate as a single woman and succumbs to society’s most pernicious stereotypes.
