So many of us have been conditioned since birth to believe in things that cannot be seen, rather than to critically think about things that can be.

At the very least, I hope everyone else carves out a free moment to watch the documentary Disclosure, which is helpfully streaming on Netflix and which you also have no excuse not to see.

I am HERE for Britney’s instagram posts. They are purely positive and she’s always wearing a mask when she’s outside! People who wanna say she’s clearly “not okay” based off of these posts can SUCK IT. As a therapist who works with people who have severe mental illness, I’m so sick of hearing this. It is known she has…

I think they could have easily covered the costs of adoption w/the ads - if you can get in good with mommy stuff, there is BIG money there (international adoption is expensive, but from Googling and my general sense of it, $40,000 seems like the upper limit there. I would imagine they could easily be hitting $100,000…

Came here to fondly reminisce about the Hairpin! One of the all-time greats.

The hair pin too! I loved that site

“The “I don’t see race” argument is really an “I have the privilege of not thinking about or discussing racism,” argument, in a world that treats whiteness as its default.”

There is no part of society that is more obsessed with making people’s skin color their defining characteristic than the woke justice warriors of the left.

Ugh. Because white people insist on being congratulated for every incremental step towards self- awareness and have set the bar as low as it can go, good for them. 

This season, a great show became something absolutely masterful. The writing, character development, acting, combined with artistic (but not heavy-handed) cinematography, and the always-incredible music was just... complex, subtle, nuanced.

Yeah, or if not racist shit directed at The Bachelor, at other contestants potentially. Like in Rachel Lindsey’s season where they brought on a dude with some very racist tweets that the producers should have been able to find to vet him out, who could be kind and nice to Rachel, but behind her back was antagonizing…

Yes, all politics is local. Or at least starts local because that’s what affects day to day lives the most. It’s a shame there’s just snarky bullshit from a pair of Vermont Jesus apostles about Gaga registering people to vote or Reese Witherspooon asking people to vote. Downplaying voting sends the absolute wrong…

Please vote in local elections. It makes a difference.

Yesssss Houston! Black rodeo and horsemanship is, of course, a big deal in Texas and this was so awesome to see them come out. And to answer someone else’s question, yes, Houston’s protests have been primarily peaceful. Art Acevedo is their police chief and he is pretty universally liked and respected, as far as…

(Full disclosure: I’m a white guy)

This post emphasizes why it is important to vote in local elections.

Virginia is notoriously gerrymandered. Virginia hasn’t elected a republican to statewide office for over 10 years but the state legislature, until last year, was majority republican. This disconnect is enabled by the…

As another commenter pointed out, there’s no way to watch it on your TV; It has to be watched on a mobile device. So it seems like Quibi was designed to be used primarily by commuters, which would also explain why episodes are so short. When I’m at home I’m not really trying to watch anything on my phone because I…

Speaking as a horse woman, this is 100% awesome. *raises fist in solidarity*

Yeah, and the tests still aren’t available everywhere in the state. I have several acquaintances who work in healthcare, and have told me that they’re basically sending people home to self-quarantine unless they’re dying, so when it says my county has “X active cases” that means there are X people in the hospital and…

Meanwhile our state has seen the 4th straight day of positive tests. They keep making excuses why it is NOT a trend.

I mean, we can and should blame the MO government for their policies that allowed this to be possible but let’s not forget that all these idiots made the choice to be there and they deserve their share of the blame too.
