It’s crazy to me that policy hasn’t improved over the course of my life. We’ve literally had Lifetime playing out this scenario for decades. It’s not like we don’t know it exists, it’s just that it’s not deemed as important to law makers. It’s crazy-making.

yuuuuuuuuuuup. Fuck “ageism” when we’re literally being dominated by a corrupt gerontocracy. McConnell, Feinstein, Schumer, Pelosi—they all need to get the fuck out. 

The concept of ageism is just the Baby-Boomers pulling up the ladder like they always have. In the 60s and 70s they were all about shoving aside they’re grandparents’ and parents’ so they could get the sweet jobs and positions of power. And now they don’t want to relinquish that power so they cry about being…

Been dealing with my dad’s decline into senility and it’s a tough thing. He obviously does not see it himself, but it’s stressing out my mom and the rest of us. In this situation, Feinstein doesn’t seem to be willing to step down herself, so only our voters can save ourselves. Just need someone to run against her that…

Did you intend to type “graft” or was it autocorrected from “grift”?

Sina Estavi [...] bought a digital token representing Twitter founder Jack Dorsey’s first ever tweet.

Love these TV ‘reviews’ which just consist of the writer recounting every single part of the plot, something superfluous for anyone who’s watched it and offputting for someone who hasn’t, without going into why anything works or doesn’t.

Same! I usually try not to comment, given that it’s not a very good way to convince people of anything, but I just happened to notice that and honestly if an overgrown, outdated celebrity gossip blog isn’t the place for that kind of observation, I don’t know where is.

YUP. Recovery is not going to work if you can’t accept that you alone are responsible for your actions.

Yeah, I try to remind myself that people like this are dealing with significant mental illness/addiction... but holy shit this woman is a mess. The whole almost-apology reads more like “hey, please feel sorry for me and/or be proud of me”.

All god-awful behavior aside - she should at least own up to what a huge fuck-up…

Yeah. My problem is right there in how her apology was worded. 

If people are going to fall on the sword of “I have a problem, that’s why I did what I did”, then they’re more responsible than anyone to take care of the problem.  Saying “I’ve got a problem” doesn’t absolve people of responsibility and consequences of their actions.  

I have sympathy for anyone struggling, that being said, it seems she lacks taking responsibility for her actions like many alcoholics. She admittedly took medication and alcohol to the point where she blacked out but seems to feel she is the victim of the mom who took to Twitter and her now former friend. She even thro…

Getting obliteratedly drunk and high. Making fun of teens. Blaming someone else for her behavior…. Welp we just need making fun of person with a disability and sexually assaulting someone and the GOP will soon be flipping her and vetting her for the Vice Presidency.

No matter how often it’s used as a supposedly appropriate excuse, I will never understand the protestations of, “That’s not me! That’s not who I am! I would never do that!” It seems that it’s always exactly who the person is and exactly what they would do.  Because they did.

On CW Network, shark jumps you.

So because they’re not perfect victims they don’t deserve your support?

You can support victims of abuse and still hold them responsible for victimizing others.

Jesus, why the fuck would people bring so many weapons on a camping trip? Especially a camping trip where you plan to use hallucinogens?

I agree with most of this take, but I do think the Communist Manifesto photo op was trolling. 

I found some in Dominican Republic, $119 a night for two people all in. That’s $22k a year each without even asking for a bulk discount. Just renting at say $2500 a month in the US is $30k a year before you’ve even got out of the bed you also had to pay for!
