Most airports I’ve travelled through have functioning, clean drinking fountains. I carry an empty bottle through security, and spend my $5 on something else besides water.

I also judge the fuck out of rich people who don’t want to pay more in taxes to support social programs for the less advantaged. Considering one of the major pillars of Islam, zakat, I judge Muslim Republicans as hypocrites for prioritizing their financial considerations over the social good. The same way I think…

I thought the parsley pate tree looked like something you would see on Pinterest tbh. Would eat.

‘Your delicate and unique brain is still developing so we don’t want it hurted by the big people beer’ is a lot like ‘Santa won’t come til the children have all gone sleepy-byes, so run along now, hop into bed, and leave the adults to have some grown-up time and um wait for Santa’

Ah yes, the classic “every generation is worse than the last one” bullshit. See also “saying nice things to people is only coddling them, you need to be harsh to instill real lessons, no I’m not just saying that to excuse my being an asshole to everybody, no you’re the asshole for pointing out that I’m not helping…

She was also excellent in United States of Tara and other roles. She’s just getting attention now.

I think it’s absolutely ridiculous that the author thinks that financial help for an Ivy League education from your parents doesn’t require at least the modicum of respect of giving your parents an update on your life or responding to their texts.

But look, paying for college doesn’t mean your kid has to talk to you in a meaningful way.

It was amazingly hard to find in my area of the US for a while, but now it’s everywhere.

Not Your Father’s Hard Root Beer for me! And also towards the end of my semester so no true celebrating yet!

But once the beard grows out more it softens up.

Everybody remember when Charlotte Rampling was the best thing about the last season of Dexter?

There’s also something creepy about the subtle “accidental pregnancies may make some childfree-by-choicers someone embrace motherhood” message. Sure, it’s true for some, but overall, isn’t giving women as much control over what happens to their body as possible for the best?

As a politically engaged Canadian I cannot really respond to this article without wanting to throw my computer at the wall because it conflates like five different issues with varying degrees of accuracy.

The nannies work in Ontario, where the minimum wage is 11.25. I am not sure where the minimum wage cited in this article comes from.

Turkey tetrazzini. From the original Betty Crocker cookbook. Back when putting heavy cream into everything was acceptable. I swear my kids like it better than the Thanksgiving day meal.

Yes you can. You need to breath, take a nice hot shower, make yourself some tea and then sit down in a good area and break the task into small, manageable pieces. Mind map it out: what do you need to do, how does it fit together etc. Also go to class. I teach and believe me, when you come to class it makes a…

As an atheist I don’t have a problem with the word “prayers.” It’s not much different than “thoughts.” One definition is “an earnest hope or wish.” I think as long as the intentions are rooted in compassion, there probably isn’t a need to focus so much on what words are used, as long as they are positive, and don’t…

I’ve always thought she was a horrible interviewer. Name dropping, interrupting, a damn mess.
