It’s standard journalistic practice to use the full name and then acronym it in case your reader is unfamiliar with the acronym.

I really hate when articles (blogs?) use acronyms without bothering to say the full name. Consumer Electronics Show, for anyone curious.

Heads up, “easier to understand” does not necessarily equate to “accurate”.

The idea that “sex” as a concept has no cultural underpinnings is also pretty flawed, though. It’s not an objective thing that exists in a vacuum, but a collection of common characteristics used to group and categorize. Take any of those common characteristics, especially the ones people like to point to as scientific…

What is the point of saying “sex is immutable” and “a man cannot turn into a woman?”

This is inaccurate, though. Sex is not based solely on genetics, and people who believe you cannot change your sex are not “scientifically accurate”.

The important thing is, does Ashley like orange chocolate?

I honestly don’t think she does.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Michelle Obama?

Have you ever considered that a person can be liberal/progressive as hell but unable to act on it to the extent wished? The president, as evidenced by the circus currently going on in DC, is not a king. If he’s going to get anything done he needs Congress behind him — and Congress was NOT behind him for most of his…

Gotta give props to dude for having the balls to call u up and open a dialogue. 

Obama gave eight years of his life in the most thankless job there is and we, the United States voters, chose to reward his legacy by electing a racist clown.

She didn’t have to dox the girl to her hundreds of thousands of followers. She set this person up for cyber-bullying all because she had an opinion on her work. You’re better than that Sarah.

My favorite Taffer ep was Piratz. It was so outlandish, but then turning it into a bar named “Corporate” in an office-heavy area? FFS, most of us office drones don’t WANT to be reminded of Corporate!

I suffer from mild Cleithrophobia (fear of being trapped). I can suppress it for most of a flight but when the plane lands I can feel everything screaming at me to get out.

I wouldn’t know, I’m a woman and thus only equipped to discuss “women’s issues” on a “woman’s blog” silly!

I really wish there was some sort of sports and politics combo to discuss this madness further! Or one take on it on the sports page, and another on the politics page!

Sorry, gotta get one long comment in before they shut off the lights:

Right. As if “majority opinion” is not the basis of how representative democracy is supposed to work?

Everybody wants to see their team kicking @ss and taking names. If Pelosi is not your team (and Ashley admits that she isn’t), then this scene is not going to move you.
