I read this as I currently drink water from said Starbucks Stainless Steel Reusable Cup with Reusable Straw.

Actually, emergency tracheotomy tool just waiting to be used!

Shep, can you do us a favor and make every day’s deals read “[day of the week]’s Best Deals,” like the weekend editions do? I keep seeing “Today’s Best Deals” on the promo header, and I’m not sure if it’s Tuesday or Wednesday’s deals...

How is Jill Stein’s response to this substantively any different than Trump’s typical tack of throwing out garbage accusations under the guise of “people are saying these things” or “these are concerns that I have heard from people”? In both cases it’s just acknowledging BS thrown against the wall but maintaining a…

Bringing up mercury and schedules is pandering. It is the moral equivalent of a politician saying they do not support racism, but the believe in "state's rights."

She may not be anti-vax but talk about schedules and mercury is pandering and justifying the anti-science crowd.

Discussing vaccines at all, as if they are a point of discussion, is already a failure. Smart, educated people don’t even need to talk about this topic, because we know that 100% of all smart, educated people understand how human healthcare works.

And I can’t find the video, so consider “parents choice” removed until I do find it! Normally I’d agree with you, but this woman has been raising red flags for years and I’m glad Gawker (and Slate, Salon, WaPo, etc) are all coming to the same conclusion: she touts herself as the most scientific, but she spews bullshit…

Well, in that a protest vote is supposed to be a clear and unequivitable expression of one’s ideological position, wasting it on someone who has shitty ideological positions is pretty dumb as wasteful!

But that’s the problem. The issue itself *IS* black and white.

Whenever a new chicken company starts making chicken with a new chicken recipe, we don’t spend time testing that recipe to make sure that chicken, prepared that way, will not cause your hands to fall off. The effects of chicken on hands is well understood, so there is no reason to test it all anew just because someone…

Bullshit. Anti-vaxers start with an answer - vaccines are bad - and work backwards. There is nothing you could say that would convince them that the overwhelming evidence of vaccine’s safety is correct. If the U.S. had a law that no one would who had ever worked for a drug company could work for the FDA or CDC, they…

The way she hedges around it with the “there are questions” line reminds me of how climate change deniers make their arguments. Act like there’s a debate where there’s vast consensus. Same with the wifi / em sensitivity issue.

Using that line of argument just muddies the waters on a host of scientific debates.

No, Snopes missed the point. Most people aren’t accusing her of literally directly being an anti-vaxxer, they’re accusing her (accurately) of pandering to anti-vaxxers by lacing her comments about vaccinations with a ton of bullshit concern trolling phrases. She brings up mercury even though she knows Thimerosal was…

It’s only libel if it’s inaccurate/false. Voting for Stein as a protest vote is stupid. Anything valid that dissuades people from thinking Stein is some miraculous pure alternative performs a valuable service.

The thing is, she’s not wrong about the relentless rent-seeking that corporate America is pushing through our public school system. But then she goes and torpedoes that valid point with paranoid nonsense about wifi giving the kids brain cancer.

So, best case scenario- she is trying to attract facebook moms that believe in whack shit and like to spread said whack shit like fertilizer until little shit flowers bloom in her mommy blogger comment boards.
