Even with pretty white ladies it’s not normally national news.

...50-year-old Dan Bauman...

This guy is ridiculous, but I feel badly for his daughter; it sounds like it’s his decision to keep her from wearing a mask and continuing to drop her off at school, expecting her to be refused entry is terribly cruel on his part. He’s using this humiliation of her as fuel for his terrible ideology and that’s just as…

the problem is that Texas leans blue

the problem is that Texas leans blue, but thanks to gerrymandering and the voter suppression laws they are trying to pass, the GQP has a lock on the state.

Nothing about Blues Brothers ever gets old to me. I watch it at least once a year without even meaning to.

Holy shit, dude. This right here is why I almost never comment anywhere online anymore.

Wow; you went from 0 to Asshole on very little fuel.

She is full of wise little nuggets like this.  

“Remember these are nerds looking at the popular table.”

Acknowledging that there was a HUGE power imbalance does in no way negate the fact that Lewinsky was of age.

How can you be confused about the power imbalance between a 22 year old intern and the President of the US? Though you’re confused by the concept that this is a fictionalized take by Ryan Murphy that never presented itself as unbiased so...guess that's how.

They look like bassoon reeds

Rowling has the right to say disagreeable stuff without getting death threats

“To be fair, when you can’t get a woman sacked, arrested or dropped by her publisher, and cancelling her only made her book sales go up, there’s really only one place to go”

There’s nothing in the context of what she said that is saying “THIN=GOOD!” or... any of this stuff you’re reading into it. I mean this in a nice way but I think the solution here is therapy, because you talked about how they weaponize their inner voices but I’d argue that you’ve mostly been weaponizing your own and…

Everything about diet, health, food, physical attractiveness, and fitness is fucked up in this country.

 I feel extraordinarily lucky that the Republican nutjobs in my family include a doctor who is not swayed in her doctoring by politics.  She got a vaccine as soon as she could, her husband got one as soon as he could (him, I wouldn’t have minded if he refused), and two of her daughters are epidemiologists, so all…
