I hope everyone who has made threatening or judgmental remarks about this girl is subject to a “concerned community” carefully scrutinizing THEIR bathroom usage, and keeping a public log of it to be discussed to death by “concerned citizens” who speculate about things like, whether they were preying or peeping on kids…

I kinda love these. Finally, a foot-mounted art installation that forces you, the audience, to confront the grisly effects of the high-heeled shoe on the human foot! Take that, fashion industry! Yeezy the Super-Feminist is coming for you!

We also have this problem in Canada. Our satirical news shows have the best take.

Someone on Twitter pointed out the obvious link to this article, about the insecurity and entitlement that allow men to make these sort of demands on women who are playing in a league an order of magnitude above their own. Patterns, they are everywhere.

Agree. This smacks of trying to avoid having to nominate BP for Best Picture.

You know, in a twisted way, it’s kind of nice of Trump to take all the worst lowlifes in America and put them squarely in the public eye where we can all clearly see what utter garbage they are. This whole administration is like an infomercial for financial system reform.

Yeah. Good thing it has no bearing on our secular legal system.

So, is the Catholic Church advocating holding public executions during mass, or is the CHURCH for some reason trying to tell the STATE how to do its job? Will they be weighing in on the biblical justifications for parking tickets, too, or do they just think they have the right to govern the lives (and deaths) of…

If Poe hadn’t destroyed the dreadnaught, it would have destroyed the rebel fleet.

Explain to me again how the real enemy is unions?

US media is too busy running “inspiring” stories about old men walking 8 miles to work each day, or dads working 7 days a week at 3 jobs to buy their daughters a grad dress, or students going RIGHT back to work after getting seriously injured in car accidents, because the REAL story is that perseverance leads to succe…

I’ve linked it before and I’ll link it again. Last time this came up (when Bernie was making a splash about single-payer healthcare in 2016), the Citations Needed podcast covered extensively why the “it’s way too expensive” narrative is complete and utter bullshit. In fact, they dismantle the very notion that the US…

Did this piece even have an editor? For the love of god, Jez, you are dealing with people’s intimate stories here. What are your standards for reporting on them?

She has started a GoFundMe to help care for her three young grandchildren, who are now left without a mother.

If you are a person who thinks “But how are we going to pay for it?!?!”
has even a shred of validity, have I got a podcast for you! This is a fascinating deconstruction of the way the Republicans (and therefore the media) talk about the budget in order to control the narrative, and how the thinking about the deficit,…

Good to know US enforcement agencies will prioritize prosecuting mothers who overstayed visas over actual violent offenders who may have harmed children. Yep, this system seems to be working great.

Not surprising at all if you actually LISTEN to those 10-year-olds, instead of just pearl-clutching at their signs.

If only there were some sort of system in place for dealing with criminals who don’t obey laws...

Amazing the lengths people will go to to avoid gun control.

Counterpoint: If you think your son being named after a black person means you can’t be racist, you are probably a racist.
