Many Sea Org members report marrying young. It comes with some privileges - like a private room for the couple. Plus, with the near constant interrogation of individual members, marriage doesn’t really increase the chance they’ll escape, only the chance someone super close to them will rat them out if they step out of…

I really can’t wait until this ridiculously evil cult is finally destroyed.

The terrified-cracker contingent is perfectly willing to condone the hate speech & the white-supremacist pals, because it doesn’t affect THEM, as long as he makes the empty promises they want to hear. Siege mentality.

This is true. But I think the point stoprobbers is making is that there are other groups who are also systemically disadvantaged, and have been for much longer, and in much worse ways.

Are you a white, male, and in college?

I’m just a poor white trash motherfucker. No one cares about me.

People are really worried about this because even though white men are an ever decreasingly important voting block they still get a disproportionate amount of media attention compared to everyone else.

The problem with your argument of: “They’ll hire the best person” is the entire article above. If that were true, the lone woman in the group of 4 should get hired 25% of the time. It assumes people start at equal footing, and the fact of the matter is that they don’t.

Real question I have about transphobic bathroom residents, and also people who scream about people on welfare buying steaks with food stamps: who the fuck is paying THAT MUCH attention to the other people around them? I can’t remember the last time I made eye contact with a stranger in a bathroom let alone debated…

Get the fuck outta here with your #notallmen apologia. The reason why a minority of men can get away with such spectactularly bad behavior is that the rest of us participate in power structures that ensure that they don’t suffer any consequences for it. Nobody gets a pass for not being actively sexist in a patriarchal…

“Robert E. Lee” came in second.

While everything in the infographic is true, and does have merit, I think publishing it as the gospel truth here on Vitals does people a disservice.

While many of these points are valid, I think a better way to summarize this is that many people misstate their calories when calorie counting and not as much that there are inherent problems with calorie counting. It takes discipline not only to eat better, but to track it all as well. If you start to take shortcuts…

It’s a sadistic way of reinforcing the myth that women- and indeed infants with no chance at life- should prove the sanctity of life through unimaginable suffering.

I live in Cleveland and started at my last job (nonprofit arts organization) at $26k. Comfortable? Maybe. Comfortable enough. When I left I was making $30k (the equivalent to $15/hour) and would definitely say I was making a living wage (for a single person supporting only themselves). Could two people in Cleveland…

I was looking for this comment so I didn’t have to make it! Demonstrations are not experiments and almost all of the “OMGSCIENCE!!!” kids are exposed to are demonstrations. Here’s a great kids’ science video that makes that very point. Should be required watching:

No, implying that the dildo was on top of the pillow not underneath. Ted is the dildo in this statement.

Oh, please let it be soon.

You know how I knew NYC would be at the top of the list? Because people who live there take every opportunity to talk about how it’s the best city, like they all have an inferiority complex. It’s like listening to Trump keep insisting that his hands aren’t small.

Umm whatever dude. We've all seen The Wire!
