As a Dad, this really bothers me on a visceral level. Who WOULDN’T want to spend time with your kid?!? He’s YOUR KID. This will definitely impact them since “Dad doesn’t seem to care” which in turn will influence their parenting style which perpetuates this indifference.

Yeah, this. I really don’t give a shit if you’re a disciple of The Crazy Japanese Lady On The Teevee or not, but don’t just send your unwanted stuff to a landfill because you’re a lazy jerk. there are many, many places that could use your unwanted books if they are clean and in good condition. Years ago, we donated a…

I had a leaky pipe in my last home that ruined an entire 6' tall bookshelf full of books. They gathered mold and were unsalvageable. I’m still disturbed by it. Nevertheless, I managed to move about 25 boxes of books from my old house to new. I love books and I will never apologize for having multiple, double-layered…

You articulated my feelings. When I see books by the apartment dumpster or on the curb - like even outdated textbooks - I wonder who tf throws out books? I can’t even think of a comparison. I don’t feel like it’s like VCR tapes where the new tech has made the old one difficult to accommodate, but I guess not everyone…

Otherwise, throw that shit to the curb, buy a Kindle, regret nothing.

“If the image of someone getting rid of books makes you angry, you have clearly never tried to pack up books for a move.”

Um, moved my book collection four separate times? Packing and moving books is not all that different from moving kitchenware or furniture.

Amen. They will have to carry me out of my shitbox apartment and pry my books from my cold dead hands.

If the image of someone getting rid of books makes you angry, you have clearlynever tried to pack up books for a move.

But when they submitted the obituary—which would cost the family $1,684 to publish—to their local newspaper, the Louisville Courier-Journal...

Surely there’s a photo somewhere of Dr. Bernice Sandler. Not using her photo for this article is a form of erasure. 

Recently, this web site has published two stories regarding obituaries about women that were unfairly focused on someone other than the deceased and framed the woman’s life only in respect to the men in it.

What’s with hating on dogs so much, Esther? Dogs are noble creatures and have lived beside humans for nearly as long as goats, fulfilling all sorts of needs that most certainly do not include fetching cans of Diet Coke. The living hate-filled mannequin serving the President should not be compared to our canine…

Totally agree, maybe it’s an image licensing issue? I, however, am not held back by the legalities:

Why is there a picture of Billie Jean King on this? 1) you scared me 2) Bernice Sanders deserves a picture of herself on this article.

Rashida Tlaib is a (1) divorced (2) Muslim (3) woman from a (4) Palestinian family of (5) immigrants who represents a (6) black majority district (which is also (7) heavily Muslim) (8) in Detroit and is a member of the (9) Socialist wing of the (10) Democratic Party.

“I would only say that is ludicrous. I’m not a reputational risk.”

He’s gotta stop off at Joe Rogan first. Then do a quick stop at Dave Rubin. Followed by a FOX News spot. Is Red Eye still a thing?

You’re not interesting because you jerked off in front of women for decades. Why does that mean I have to listen to you? Why does that make you interesting. You didn’t get your career ruined by a vindictive creep. You spent 20 years harassing your colleagues and threatening them with retaliation and now I gotta…

As opposed to the rich people who claimed bone spurs during Vietnam....

If they were planning to name it Oscar Bieber, I wish they’d gone with a wiener dog...
