It’s so easy for WKU to just throw in the towel.

There are a couple of different ways they can go off the rails:

Ever since I was aware of “libertarian” as a political ideology, my friends have had the phrase, “South Park Libertarian.” It’s a very fitting description of the worst people.

God, thank you for drawing this link between the Pauls, “libertarianism,” and what I’ve always thought I was the only person to refer to as “South Park politics.”

I thought this was what kijna & twitter were for.

It's incredibly frustrating to hear people argue that those receiving welfare are lazy— these women were working their asses off, working multiple jobs, juggling day care and getting their kids to services for their needs and often neglecting their own. Women who worked so hard and were offered promotions because they…

It is consistently difficult to explain how fervently I believe in this to my lovely, sentimental, romantic-at-heart boyfriend. It’s not that I don’t trust HIM, but that I need these sorts of things for my own sense of security/independence/wellbeing.

Came to comments to say this. Third type: those of us who work straight through so we can get home at a reasonable hour and see the kids before bedtime.

I can never forget David Koechner as Steely Dan’s roadie picking groupies out of the crowd and yelling, “I KNOW WHAT THE DAN LIKES!”

I can’t think about Steely Dan without remembering Clementine from Reno 911, and her tattoo that used to read “Steed” that she had edited to read “Steely Dan”. When she was briefly fired from the sheriff’s department, she became a groupie. They are very talented and I like a lot of their music, but I never felt real…

You know what else is important? Understanding language, rhetoric, reasoning, argument, logic, etc.

I am so sick of this bullshit prioritizing science and math over the humanities. People who can’t evaluate argument, recognize propaganda or understand history and sociology are much easier to manipulate, even if they…

It seems the brain develops the lower functions first before moving forward. The last piece is judgment and impulse control. It's amazing how many of us make it to adulthood.

My mom never let me go to the mall with friends when I was a teen because that’s where teens “hang out” and she was convinced teens w/o having anything to do, will inveritably cause trouble or end up knocked up. She might have had a point.

“Takes a teen age riot to get me out of bed right now”

I’m with you so much. Can we all just agree that this whole genre of “men suck at domestic things” is just fucking awful. Like, I am a man. I also like to make sure the kitchen is reasonably clean, and years of living without a dishwasher means I’m 100% okay with washing dishes on my own.

Detroit-area resident here. Elmore Leonard is a local treasure, but we’re happy to share him with the rest of you.

This is a very problematic topic. For example, if you have two people who both agree that they will marry but will be comfortable with some straying within some specific parameters, then hey! Go for it! I do believe that traditional marriage isn’t necessarily a one-size-fits-all thing.

Person trying to politely let someone down: Yeah! I’d totally be interested in you in an alternative scenario that could literally never happen!

In my experience, if an employer claims you’re being hired to change the way things work you can guarantee it’s bullshit. Even if they sincerely hope you’ll bring change there will be far too much interenal resistance. The only way it will realistically happen is if you’re building a team from scratch or have been…

We all laugh at Office Space and get a kick out of how Peter’s solution was to give up his high paying office job for shoveling rubble, but it’s no joke that sometimes a cushy office job can be mind-numbingly painful.
