There was a thing on BBC news hour today about a case in New Orleans about 20ish years ago. The guy is in jail (still) even though another guy was arrested and convicted of the same crimes. Either the judge or the detective was talking about how the mindset for some prosecutors back the was basically he was a young…

I read earlier he was fired, so that is at least a step in the right direction, but this guy is not the root problem. We need better training for the police on how to prevent situations like this from happening in the first place.

And he was roughly 40, which as a young college kid was *SO OLD.*

I’ve met a few non asshole vegans, but it’s been in the single digits. One of my good friends in college would regularly cook steaks on the grill for her husband but was strictly vegan herself. She is a pretty rad person!

There was a guy who would show up at a coffee shop I used to frequent on Saturday mornings. He always wore really stiff (starched? probably.) khaki cargos and would sit in a way that if you even glanced his way for a moment your eyes would be drawn to his junk hanging out in his left pant leg. It happened a few weeks…

It would definitely be a great business decision you would absolutely not regret later!

True true, I was thinking about the Fiorina/Planned Parenthood/video saga but you could also channel your inner Trump. Actually that sounds horrifying and I cannot recommend it.

Were they ever really together, though?

For years I’ve been saying hot dogs are sinister AF and finally I have received some vindication!

No, but love with find you.

I took about 4 classes in statistics and only had to re-take one so yeah you could call me an expert.

Small oversight but please send all the money I swear I’m legit.

You just have to sound confident, sneer and fling vicious comments at anyone who disagrees with you and put it on the internet. And then when whatever happens comes to light you can either double down or pretend you never said those things. Channel your inner Fiorina.

Lies! I studied economics in college, I use the internet and took at least 2 marketing classes so I know exactly what is going to happen in the future.

I don’t know what it is about the internet that makes it so easy to become our worst selves. It’s fascinating and horrifying at the same time.

I understand what you’re saying now. I will never understand it, but it seems like so many people out there fighting the good fight for a specific group’s rights have some kind of blind spot of hypocrisy. It’s like people either consciously or subconsciously believe that there’s a finite quantity of rights to go…

Genuine question: Which of her comments are you saying are not real enough to deserve discussion? The ones where she’s stating that a trans women are not real women?

It would get pretty ugly, and we already thought it was ugly to begin with.

Boehner quitting what is probably his dream job is a true testament to how miserable the entirety of Congress is, and how broken the GOP party has become.

If it was assumed I was dating every old man that looked at me like that I would have half a hundred boyfriends right now. As would just about every woman under the age of 60.
