I’m not against showing real pictures of war but I’d be helpful to put a tag above those that they’re graphic because some people have very real sensitivities those could upset from PTSD and whatnot. The one of the little girl is quite gruesome.

I was expecting said “girl” to be a boy and for that to be the big “reveal.” That says a lot about me I guess. I see the world through gay as shit eyes.

I had this EXACT same reaction and had a fight with my husband about it. It felt very victim-blamey to me. Like, “they didn’t notice and their kids died!!”. I think it would have been a stronger message if it was geared more toward “let’s talk about bullying, and easy access to guns”. Which I suppose is a more…

I think it’s interesting that this video on behalf of the Sandy hook charity is about watching fellow students for signs of mental health issues and “obsessions” with gun violence (like asking teens to police each other on that stuff is simple) when the guy who shot up Sandy Hook didn’t attend the school in the first…

I lived in Eugene, Oregon when Kip Kinkel killed his parents and then went to school and killed multiple kids. The signs were there, interventions were tried - we don’t know how to intervene, how to help these kids - we don’t know what works. Mental health services are also woefully difficult to access and…

You know....I don’t think I love this. Who is this aimed toward — teachers? Do we think teachers don’t try to intervene with troubled kids? Students? There were students interacting with this kid, and anyway, asking students to police the behavior of “creepy loner weirdos” is how you get bullying. (And I mean, say you…

Hey two parents in Utah recently disarmed their kid as he was about to start shooting people. That is a just cut me in two.

Could someone...anyone...please inform Kate McKinnon that Kelly Ann Conway is a hateful hag who quite pleased with herself that she assisted in Trump winning the presidency? Because playing her like she regrets anything is completely wrong.

I graduated from public school in Indiana with classmates that couldn’t read, and almost none who had reading comprehension high enough to engage in deep critical thinking.

I’ve found it’s helpful to start small, and always in a non-confrontational manner. There’s actually sound neuroscience behind this- if people feel attacked, they go into fight or flight mode and just shut down. So go small and go calm. When I’m done doing that, I like to say, “Well, it’s something to think about,”…

It’s a problem that traces its roots to the American educational system and thus requires a long-term solution involving a radical overhaul of how Americans are taught to think.

What can be done to combat this kind of thinking? I have immediate family members that just flatly refuse to grapple with facts-- when they’re confronted with them, they just say, “I don’t believe that”. It feels like democracy hangs on us figuring out a way to bring these people back into the realm of reality, but I…

Why does Conway insist on using phrases like “your protesters” as if the Clinton camp controls those who don’t like Trump? The Clintons have nothing to do with the reasons why I’m objecting to Trump. I protest him because he’s  nasty, ignorant piece of garbage and objecting to him is my patriotic duty.

“You guys won, that’s clear,” Benenson said. “But let’s be honest. Don’t act as if you have a popular mandate for your message. The fact of the matter is that more Americans voted for Hillary Clinton than for Donald Trump.”

ALTERNATE HEADLINE: SELF DITCHES SHELF

The publication has been in the line of fire for awhile, made to share business teams with Glamour, and now only publishes 10 times a month.

I’m trying to decide how high these women are. The back room where they line up must just be feathers and joints.

It’s a comedy chat show, ‘proper debate and discourse’ isn’t part of the design. Even a 5 minute block with an opinion news show host or a panel discussion isn’t going to scratch the surface.

Part of why we got where we were is cable news fooled us into thinking you could explain these things in 5 minutes and have some…
