From what I can tell the “controversial” part is that the risks seem to greatly outweigh the benefits. Something like only 8% increased their sexual desire and even then it lead to .05% more satisfactory sexual encounters. The risks however are severe drop in blood pressure and fainting if you drink alcohol at all.…

At this meeting, they proposed a new concept. What if we did a cortisol study, someone said.

I used to be a consultant providing evaluation assistance to non-profits. After a few too many of stories like this, I started looking for work elsewhere. The general sense was that the non-profit would be seen as a success if they got their grant from a larger non-profit extended, or if they got a new grant. And, no…

So because she didn't understand the statute of limitations, that is why she kept refusing to court the idea that dude is a rapist?

Whatever y’all do, don’t let Jim Cooke or Tara Jacoby leave. Ever. They are doing the Lord’s work.

If people using selfie sticks are getting hit by lightning then I’ve finally found a way to reconcile my belief in Darwin with my belief in God.

That’s a hell of a good article. Why am I not surprised that a chiropractor is highly involved in the anti-vax movement?

I’m more embarrassed by Andy Cohen dancing with his White Man’s Overbite.

This kind of thing sucks, but is so common at companies founded by “cult of personality” types who are great at ideas but ignorant about business. It’s all well and good when it’s a few people making something cool get off the ground, but then they get to the stage where they need to have more formal processes in…

White people are fucked up.

So does anyone here actually go to Yahoo! aside from the Community fans? I go every now and then to reset my email password and maybe check out a Adrian Wojnarowski NBA column and that’s pretty much it. I didn’t even know Katie Couric was working for them.

I’m calling dibs on being the “Shame!” nun lady for Halloween

I wish I could say that I’m surprised by the amount of people defending her but I can’t. White women can pretty much get away with anything. Must be nice. *waits for angry white female commentators to complain*

Dolezal graduated from Howard with her Masters in Fine Art in 2002
