They’re also much easier to carry if you have to take one or more buses to get home from the grocery store (if you are lucky enough to be in proximity of one.)

Frozen veggies are okay (and depending on the vegetable I actually prefer frozen to canned) but then again, its a food that comes with an additional cost, in this case power. If you're already poor and go through bouts of having your power cut off, then frozen vegetables are a risky proposition. Hell, you can maintain…

Not to mention, if that Mercedes is even a few years old, it won’t sell for much compared to its original value. And then they still have to purchase another car. That car will probably be less reliable than the Mercedes because it will be less well made and also older. The couple grand that they theoretically are…

Unrelated to this, but other problems that could be added to the discussion is being labeled a felon or having substance abuse/mental health issues.

Yeah buying a phone outright is, typically, chump change compared to rent/utilities/food/transportation/etc.

Former poor person—used to be reliant upon food boxes and lived in public housing while living without health insurance (had an infant covered by low income health insurance, but my then husband and I were not). You are profoundly misinformed. Ramen and Kool Aid are indeed cheaper than rice and orange juice or milk.…

Time.

That’s eugenics. We don’t do that.

Probably talking to the wrong crowd, but: Petroleum jelly. Cheap, unscented, actually works.

Your opinion is your opinion. People who don’t agree are not creepy weirdo’s. You have a very judgmental view on others who differ from you. I assume that’s probably a bigger hold up on career development then bringing lunch to work a few times a week.

I’m forever grey too (as evidenced by my name) but I post anyway. Most of the time some kind soul rescues my posts from the grey pit of anonymity.

Breaking news: She just issued her first same sex marriage license.

You are singing the song of my people.

He’d be fine in Lexington or Louisville. Betsy Layne is never going to work for him.

Take it from me, kid—get out of Eastern Kentucky and don’t look back. It worked wonders for me.

I found out she was playing in St Louis the night before her concert. I was soooo happy. It was amazing and so beautiful and interesting to watch her sing.

Well, obviously they did something wrong to bring that upon themselves and they should probably pray harder and turn to the church for help. Christians have a great track record in supporting the poor and unfortunate, right?

WHY IS NOBODY COMMENTING that the past two movie theater shootings occurred in films that have feminist leanings? Both Trainwreck and Mad Max are feminist films. This isn’t about just shooting people. This is about shooting people who believe in equality. Why isn’t the press picking this up? It is clearly an…

Kind of terrifying that this occurred at yet another movie that has MRA anti-feminist types up in arms. At this rate we are going to need metal detectors and US Marshalls present at every screening of the new Ghostbusters reboot.

So now two attempts at mass murder in movie theatres featuring films with strong female leads. Are the authorities still going to pretend MRAs are not dangerous?
