Yes. Even the etiquette we so bash as class-oriented and hierarchical originated as a way to honour and respect people. With this I fully agree. In terms of overpopulation, when mice are crowded too far into a cage, they cease reproducing and begin killing each other. I do not believe that humans are any different,

When people, including our city’s police chief, who is a remarkably restrained guy who has managed to create a pretty diverse police force in a very racially divided urban area, gives a radio interview casually equating violent protestors and terrorists with Black Lives matter organizers, I really don’t know what to

The militarisation of the police in this country and their panicked overreaction is stunning. They are treating the protestors like de facto criminals. The people have a right to assembly as enshrined in the Constitution. Are the police aware of this?

Yea, I mean, you could go for having cops get out of their cars to interact with the community in a peaceful and productive manner- or just to frisk ‘random’ private citizens for no goddamn reason. Why spend the time and effort building trust and cooperation with local communities when you can just bag and tag people

I have seen this posted before and it’s my favorite thing I’ve discovered on Jez. Thanks for sharing it again (in this super-awesome format!) I sent it to my boyfriend this time around because we’ve been having the ‘put the toilet seat down’ and ‘help me make up dinner ideas’ fights for the last few weeks. Hopefully

“And it’s not b/c my husband is a loser. He’s just not used to doing it. And I can’t for the life of me figure out how to MAKE him. So I do it.”

I don’t feel sorry for her if he did indeed cheat with a costar. Serves her right for creating that job opening when she went from mistress to wife.

Obviously you take the money up front cash, then don’t invite her to the wedding, and pretend she’s crazy if she tries to sue you for the money back.

The manual notes that employees must “substitute their earned and unused vacation days and personal days for any otherwise unpaid FMLA leave.”

She was free to not commit the crime and have the surgery all on her own at any time she chose to.

Considering people like this to be “irredeemable” and “deplorables” is not a presidential attitude. She has to lead the entire country — not just the parts she likes or respects. She should focus on the beliefs and attitudes that are deplorable, not the people, and try more to understand where this negativity is

It starts spouting shit at random and inappropriate moments?

How many testaments does she have room for? Because I have many.

He doesn’t actually know what a debate is, which is not a surprise. At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if it turned out he didn’t quite know what shoes were.

He’s the “first is worst!!!” kid.

I hate this whole concept that everything is “rigged” and “unfair”. Where I’m from (the south), people truly believe that. There is this understanding between republicans that Trump doesn’t play by the rules, and that DC is out to get him. So, even if Trump loses in the election, his supporters will just be more

Yes, but it would be much harder to be accepted in society then compared to now. 32 year old unmarried virgins were looked at as “old maids” and generally viewed as undesirable and unwanted by men, not as a choice freely made by the woman in question.

It just occurred to me Bryan really doesn’t even need feminism - she could have achieved being an unmarried virgin centuries ago.

Honest bomb: I refused to do Thank You notes for our wedding unless my husband sat down and helped. I would have settled for an uneven split of the labor. A year later and only a handful of Thank You notes have gone out because I realized he had no intention of lifting a single finger even though he would often bemoan
