The most problematic part of this statement is that his definition of rape is “physical violence.” This viewpoint is why it’s so hard to believe victims and discuss sexual assault because we expect more evidence of a struggle. The lack of physical evidence implies consent and makes it easier for people to side with…

Yesterday my mom and I found out that our SNAP is going to be $16 a month. I am not joking. I work about 25 hrs/week earning minimum wage and she’s on Social Security but we somehow make too much to get any more (because mom’s on SS, she gets the $16 guaranteed). I’m still poor enough to be on Medicaid for now, which…

Bernie Sanders SHOULD HAVE run as a 3rd party candidate but wanted to make use of the big Democrat machine: money & exposure. So while Bernie is NOT a Democrat, he is running as a Democrat. Hmmmm.

Susan Sarandon herself is confusing me.

I’m not in this, but if your socks never show even when you put your foot on your knee, there is no way you are wearing pants that fit you. That is absurd.

People that wear white socks with anything other than ahhletic clothing are an abomination.

I totally feel you on this point. I refuse to date guys that used to be nerdy for this reason.

“I usually wake up at 6:30am,”

“During my education, I enjoyed many social exchanges with my fellow pupils. Some of these social exchanges included speaking, or not speaking while playing with electronics. I found all of my social time to be extremely pleasant.”

Panton told Jezebel in an emailed statement. “Ted and I had many mutual friends who would usually stop by to watch movies, play video games, or even engage in long, fun discussions about politics, philosophy, and life.”

I saw on Twitter someone posted (paraphrased), “saying ‘save the rainforests’ doesn’t automatically mean ‘fuck all other forests,’” which I appreciated as an analogy for all this “all lives matter” nonsense.

Exactly! The correct response - if you’re white - to “Black lives matter” is to say “Yes. Yes, they do” not “BUT WHAT ABOUT ME?!?”

Maybe because no one really cares. We’ve been hit over the head over and over again with Benghazi by the Repugnants and we’re suffering from concussion. Well, except for most of the South. They’re thickskulled.

I’m lucky to have a dog that doesn’t distinguish between postal workers, food delivery, falling leaves, and Leatherface. All require barking at top volume. People tend to leave pretty fast after they knock.

“These are my little friends. They help me take care of you. They’re so helpful. Ssshhh. Quiet now. My friends are singing you a lullaby. Don’t they sound sweet?”

Once at a chipotle I was having a TERRIBLE day and on the verge of tears. After I ordered, the guy behind (from out of nowhere) was like, “hey-I have a buy one get one free burrito card. So yours will be free” he didn’t ask for my name or say anything else, when I protested, he just said, “ I was going to buy a…

Wow, someone has been to a wedding at some point. Or seen Wedding Crashers.
