I know I’ll never get out of the grays if i address the vaccine issue, but I just think site is so hard line and cluelessly against any question of vaccine safety and I don’t understand why. Here you have a medical professional who is actually being reasonable; saying that vaccines have been important and effective,…

Does anyone else feel like this whole article was one giant set up, like “I’m not gonna say anything about Messing being white and privileged. Still haven’t said it. Here are some more photos to stoke the fyor where I don’t mention that she’s a rich white woman. Ready! Set! Comments!”

This! I stopped going to Lane Bryant years ago after I found zero non-polyester items on a visit. Polyester for me is a bad-mood all-day guarantee.

I think that whenever someone says that there’s nuance involved, and then you go on to skew their opinion in a way that removes nuance, it’s you who comes out looking problematic.

Just wanting to show some love for my local zoo, in the midst of a lot of zoo hate. Ours is a rescue zoo, and our tiger did come from another zoo which closed. We also have a fox which had been owned by an advertising agency until their raccoon removed its tail, lots of wild orphans, several birds of prey with broken…

Haven’t been to The Electric Fetus in nearly twenty years. Minnesota represent! They don’t make them like that anymore.

Could it be said that if it’s anti-Semitic, it is just as much anti-nazi?

I don’t get it. The newly legal marijuana industry is racist because in order for an interested black person to get into it, they’d have to have no prior felony drug charges? And those people don’t exist?

You’re getting hopped on here, but I felt everything you said. This appropriation thing also has some good points, and it’s only just getting started. It does seem to mean that if you look white, you can’t allow yourself to be influenced by any other culture anymore, when having outside influences was considered…

Don’t you think it’s just a thing of politics in general? I mean, don’t you ever think that if republicans knew better, they’d step to the left? They think that about you.

There was a case a few years back in Minnesota where the victim’s mother had made some statements to the media of the kind of treatment she hoped would be waiting the man who brutally murdered her daughter, by the other inmates when he got to prison. They moved him to another state instead, and I believe the…

I love seeing Bernie all over my news feed. I’ve been saying for the last few elections that we are going to soon see the first president elected through social media. I thought it was going to be a celebrity and I hoped we’d pick the right one. While that’s still a possibility, I have friends on both sides of the…

Mostly forgettable titles, but one comes to mind. I had a teacher in third grade who I have no good memories of except that I loved when she read Robinson Crusoe. When I saw it at the DAV store I was so excited because we do a lot of camping and the kids love those survivor type shows.

I buy books at thrift stores, so I have had to develop systems for dealing with racist children’s books mid-read. Sometimes I skip over parts, sometimes I change it as I go, and sometimes it’s so bad I have to put the book down and explain the problem. I finally learned to then THROW the book away, because my husband…

It’s not a mystery to me why they’re at the MOA. This is Minnesota in December. What spacious public place where there’s lots of people would you pick? There isn’t one because it’s freaking freezing out. The MOA is the perfect choice. Tons of people, tons of room.

This is Minnesota. The majority of every single thing is white people.

Having spent many Decembers in Minnesota, I can say that MOA is the perfect place to gather a lot of people, and get a lot of exposure.

Seems more effective than “it’ll putt hair on your chest,” which is what I was told. I’m a girl.

We’re samesies! I liked him a lot before the dream, but now (and I realize this is so weird) the love remains. I adore that man.

I’ve had a sex dream with an unexpected celebrity with each pregnancy. First one was Yao Ming. I don’t watch sports, so I don’t know how he got cast in that role.
