I always find it ironic that the people who make NYC uncivilized, cold and anonymous are people who aren’t even from the city. New Yorkers might not smile or have time to say ‘Please’ and ‘Thank You’ and walk like their motherfuckin’ house is on fire, but they look out for each other. Smug NYU grads living off the L

Pretty much. One time a pregnant coworker asked a fool like this for his seat (young, white, well-dressed hipster on the L), he actually said “No.”

I can’t argue with someone who has blinded by false propaganda. This is obviously not true. The truth becomes obvious when you realize there has been no national scandal, no proof, and no arrests - just some weird video put out by who knows by a group of people who stand to gain A LOT by passing voter suppression laws

But aren’t you bi?

A thousand times, this!

They’re putting Kris Kobach for the head. This is the guy who was behind the Arizona law targeted toward profiling brown skinned people to be stopped and arrested if they can’t prove their citizenship (was struck down) and was behind the push to let key parts of the Voting Rights Act expire for partisan gain. Expect

Voter fraud is about one thing, getting support to pass voter suppression laws. They don’t actually have to prove any fraud in order to pass laws that will bar certain demographics from voting, and they’ll be researching ways on how to do that. THAT’s what this commission is for, to devise the most effective ways for

It’s not really about voter fraud, so they won’t be looking for it. They know, as much as we do, that it is a canard. It’s designed to legally devise ways to keep us from voting.

Amy Goodman Holluh! I have Democracy Now playing as background noise as I’m working.

The reporters at Fox are like the opposite of every kids movie you’ve ever seen. Going after power is NOT in their bloodstream... however, if they ever find out about a Social Worker who finds a way to get a lil’ extra help to her case load while not strictly being legal? Lordy, WATCH OUT! They’ll uncover that shit!

God, I am so sick of needing to delicately pussyfoot around the pitchfork clan so as not to hurt their delicate feelings. If they’re so afraid of being dismissed by those with a greater understanding of the world, then why don’t they actually do what they always say: pull themselves up by the bootstraps and learn

...AND, he could Not sing :-P

I have done a lot of traveling alone, and never in countries that speak English, so my bet? You’ll meet people and have a blast. Make a list of places you want to go - you don’t have to be too touristy about it. Like if you really love a certain type of music, make it a point to find a small show, or maybe a record

Yeah, she totally gave birth to a maggot in the movie (FYI, before my time, too, but a horror-movie classic and props to the director for adding visuals to the top 10 most horrifying things to imagine as a woman (giving birth to non-human monsters). Now let’s go to bone town, otherwise known as a cemetery ;-)

Whatever, when humans call non-humans their “children”, all I can think of is The Fly — signed a dog and cat owner

And ‘bone’, ‘go to bone town’ or ‘bonein’’ as terms for sex... It’s not pretty :-/

Oh god... I thought this was a pet peeve vent post. Didn’t the post even START with annoying cutesy terms of endearment? So, everyone else can post what they find annoying but I can’t? And why?

I only hate ‘Mommy’ and ‘Daddy’ when people refer to themselves as that in relation to their pet - like: Oh, no! That’s gross, giving birth to a Dog?!?!?

And what you did there I also find irritating - like you using some cutesy endearing term based on your user handle, which means I actually have to look up and read said handle and then... what? Praise you for your cleverness at combining your handle with something endearing? Praise you for procreating/coupling?

I don’t know, but I cringe when people on Jezebel start naming their significant others with cutsey names related to their user handle, or their offspring as mini+user handle.... Just makes me want to punch the screen somehow.
