The second Hitler is brought into any discussion that does not directly involve WW II (and specifically the European theater of WW II, in most cases), something has gone wrong with the conversation.

...but, even more significantly, as Mr. Schwartz points out, if your sole recourse for defending another person’s actions…

How does Andrew Lack still have a job?  What the fuck does he have to do to get fired?

ashley - if you don’t see the shack, take it back.

There’s a small update on the Vulture where they interview a couple of women in the audience—he was greeted warmly, but no mention of a standing o, and the applause was lighter on his way out. Predictably, the women shared a look with other women audience members who weren’t enthused. I’m replying here just to call out…

One thing that also really bothers me about LCK, other than the actual sexual violations of course, is his constant, decades-long lying. Over and over and over again in interview after interview, he said he didn’t do anything. He called his victims liars. Then as he gained fame and influence he was able to demand that…

As someone who has filed and won two EEOC sexual hrassment complaints against the DoD I can tell you that formal complaints and procedures are deliberetly designed to discourage and wash out victims.

Just to be clear, I am critiquing the ridiculous cost of higher-ed in the United States in my comment. I think that these two are doing a wonderful thing here. It’s just a damn shame that $1m covers so few these days. That amount should be able to put 20 or more through 4 years of college. Not a measley 11.

You know what REALLY sucks? That $1m in scholarship money will only cover ELEVEN students.

These schools stay wealthy and most likely will get away with something like this because of their alumni. So many people have went to these large schools. They will still send their children their, still attend their meaningless sports games, and still buy their merchandise. You know why? Because so many people wrap…

I’m honestly as tired as the “John McCain was a terrible terrible person who no one should say nice things about” pieces as the “John McCain was last of a rare and noble breed of American statesmen” pieces. Dude died just yesterday, and in my universe, it’s still poor manners to interrupt other people’s mourning with…

Anyone else see a red laser dot appear on one of the players right before the shots started?

Carper did support a watered down version of a public plan, but he refused to support the full version because, he asserted at the time, “it would give the government an unfair advantage in the marketplace by allowing it to negotiate prices initially based on Medicare.”

I cannot fuck with YouTube people. They are the fucking WORST. Remember SAM AND NIA omg that was wild around here back in the day. 

Orange County, God, click bait, “people” named Savannah, Everleigh and Cole. The new VC Andrews novel sounds like shit.

Troll, find your bridge and crawl beneath it or jump. I. don’t. care.

When a White man kills somebody, society blames that one man.

When a Latino immigrant man kills somebody... somehow every Latino is at fault

That’s kind of the textbook definition of racism

where is all this outrage about white men when that guy killed his pregnant wife and kids a few days ago? Per capita they are the most dangerous groups around...

Holy shit, that’s straight up dignity and class.

Why do you refuse to mention the fact that we were furious not because he made fun of our book but because this Daily Beast journalist, Lachlan Markay published a photo of my 4 year old son and cropped it in order to make it appear as though he was doing something sexually inappropriate? Why doesn’t your article…

Posting here because why not. I’m turning 31 today. In the last year I divorced from my emotionally abusive husband, moved in an apartment alone, lost my job and had to deal with the fact that I feel really lonely. My family lives on another continent and making friends in LA is super hard. Plus I’m poor and worried…
