As ever Ron Swanson and Jean Luc Picard are right. I don’t think the Republican majority in Congress has any idea of how to govern. They have two policy positions and prescriptions for every problem: lower taxes and no regulation. Their problem is that they have largely won, taxes are not particularly high, and, as…

Yep. When a random person is caught with fifty Vicodin it is a sign of their weak character, when Rush Limbaugh is caught with 350 Vicodin addiction is a serious medical condition and he deserves compassion.

It looks in that picture like her top half is separate from her bottom half, it is a weird angle they’ve got. This dress isn’t my favorite, but there are better photos on e.

That suit is so ill fitting. I think you can have an oversized look that still fits your body, her arms look pinned down by the shoulder openings. And the pants seem askew in a I have to hold my body in one position to stay up way rather than in a this is me, comfortable in my own skin way.

Totally agree on the choker, but I would have much preferred this dress in another color, something about the bright red lace just looks so cheap to me. Maybe in a burgundy or navy I would like this better.

She really pulls it off. I thinking it help she that her gown is in no way a wedding style or a ballerina. She just looks like she plans to rule the world.

Totally need some color out there,aside from Leslie Mann in mustard and a trio of super hot ladies in red (Negga, Davis, and the other one I’m not crazy about and forgot her name), this is a pretty subdued crowd.

Huh, I was thinking that it was a very modern, sleek look. She is killing it, either way!

I just want a member of the Trump administration to say this, just once to one of the four horsemen (Bannon, Preibus, Conway, spicer):

No, they also have soul sucking lizard people:

I used to be uncomfortable with the idea of young people taking very powerful medications and potentially making permanent changes to their bodies. But then I thought about a kid I grew up with who is a trans man. He was a little boy growing up, from my earliest memory, he had every desire to wear boy clothes, play…

The correspondents dinner is a benefit for supporting journalism and press freedom. I’ve never been a fan of the focus on the chumminess and all the celebrities that show up. I think that Trump not going is both churlish and fitting, as he is an active opponent of a free press. The response by the press should be to…

IM closing in on forty and I am waaay more uninhibited in the gym, despite being in way worse shape than I was as a teen. I actually look back with regret at how bashful I was when I was actually pretty hot. I guess I’m just making a statement that this is me, I’m here, and I’m not going to contort myself to dress…

Between her and Janet Mock the trans community has some great spokespeople. Mock wrote a really moving piece the other day on how hurtful the gender policing was to her in high school: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/23/opinion/janet-mock-young-people-get-trans-rights-its-adults-who-dont.html

So, this debate has been filling me with rage as Texas has been consumed with discussion of the bathroom bill, HB6. I’ve heard this tired line about protecting women and girls over and over. Meanwhile, last year over 100 kids died while under the care of child protective services. Of the 79,000 human trafficking…

He is also getting a lot of byes because many of the girls don’t want to wrestle him. I’m sure it is frustrating to him when he just wants to compete. I’m not sure if the girls are forfeiting because of the testosterone and theyre afraid they’ll lose, or if it is that they are uncomfortable wrestling a boy, or if it…

Yeah, I’m in Houston, where lower real estate costs keep prices lower, but still routinely are ~1200 a month and there are lower salaries here. The median Houstonian parent with a child in care spends 35% of their income on care. There is a massive shortage of high quality affordable care, and some great programs are…

Yeah, I think it is a scary thing about the times we live in that a household income of $250,000 does not “feel” rich. High student debt, and the prospect of expensive medical problems leave people feeling insecure even with what are very high incomes.

I think the decision should not have to be this plan or nothing, it should be this or another plan with either direct cash assistance, or a tax credit rather than a deduction. To me, this is analogous to the mortgage interest deduction, which is massively costly and disproportionately benefits most people with…
