I’m still mad about that. A man with more integrity than any person in the Republican party I can currently name. He resigned specifically to point out the hypocrisy of the Republican party members in similar situations. I applaud him, and wish he was still in politics.

“Those jobs are just for high-school kids” really means that the families of those kids are subsidizing the labor costs of global billion-dollar corporations.

I’ll take the over.

First off you are acting like an AMA advisory panel advising something is the same as the AMA itself doing so (which aren't necessarily the same).

Heyo! Love hearing about news but don’t love inflammatory clickbait that misrepresents the facts. The AMA has several advisory committees that research and recommend statements about their special interest, including issues like vaccines and geriatric medicine. The AMA forms them in order to hear more from this…

Oh, come on. Kids at age 8 know not to throw around the f-slur. You don’t get a cookie at age 50 for bragging about finally stopping using a homophobic slur. Especially if the reason you stopped wasn’t self-reflection, but rather a child begging you to stop. He just wants some press and accolades and didn’t realize…

What the hell is wrong with this guy (I know, Boston!)??? I learned that this was an unacceptable word to call anyone when I was a child. Back in the 80's. This dude has been in Hollywood for YEARS now. What a moron.

This isn’t about his improvement. Nobody is interested in that. It’s about that word being unacceptable for, what, 40 years? 60? I don’t know if it was ever OK, but I’m 40 and I’ve always known it was hurtful. So I can only draw two conclusions: 1.) He obviously knows and just didn’t care, and 2.) He thinks he…

I can proudly say that I have never used the n-word or the f-word. (Not the f-bomb. I use that frequently.) It’s really not that hard. I also haven’t used the r-word (ret--ded) since I was about seven and then grew some gd self-awareness. Like, these are not difficult things. I grew up in a super white, conservative…

““[The slur] was commonly used when I was a kid, with a different application...”

Biles is the GOAT, and I respect her decision to withdraw. But, yeah, it shouldn’t detract at all from Lee’s victory. I get the feeling that blogs like this one believe that celebrating Lee’s amazing win somehow undermines Biles and/or her decision to withdraw, and so they’re just ignoring it, which is shitty.

I mean, *she* said it was her mental health, so I think I’m going to believe her. (Mental health doesn’t have to mean some kind of serious mental illness. It could be severe stress, anxiety, even depression.)

Hell yeah, this article about to be a classic. I got into an argument with a troll called PEEPL or some shit yesterday on this exact topic. They also ASSUME that we don’t talk about the  homophobia or violence within our community and love to grandstand on the bullshit they spew. From posting false reports to fake…

fuck off jamie

I had something similar about 40 years ago.

Why give advice...to people who refuse advice?

“We know you refuse to wear a seat belt, so maybe wear a helmet or a puffy vest and travel with other morons who also don’t wear seatbelts!”

No. Wear your seatbelt. Get vaccinated. WTF

Don’t encourage people to normalize this shit as “part of their personality”. Exclude…

Step 1: Get vaccinated!
Step 2: There are no more steps.

I hope Mrs. Douglas sees this piece. As a teacher I have no higher ambition than to help make more Michael Harriots in this world. What a wonderful writer.

The entirity of the article should have ended after the subtitle:
“We recommend getting the jab before going on a date.” Period.

Offering “ways to date” to a bunch of people who are LITERALLY ruining it for the rest of the world is like offering cooking tips to Jeffrey Dahmer; “While we’d suggest, um, you know, *not…

It’s very telling that teachers (also strong union members in most states) ALWAYS come for their own when one is accused of mistreating/abusing students or otherwise abusing their authority, and cops never ever do.
