Probably. Just in case: Hey Kathleen Hale! You are an asshole and I will never read your shitty books.

The handrail in the elevator has also expressed regret for its involvement.

Thank you for coming today. We are a right bunch of idiots.

Racial profiling in Seattle, as with many other cities, was of the type that I'd label structural or institutional discrimination. While I occasionally had to deal with (that is to say fire) cops who engaged in individual racism, the real problem was tied to disproportionate arrests of street dealers. A real problem,…

Yes. To all. The drug war has cost this country well over a trillion dollars. It's resulted in the incarceration of tens of millions of low-level, nonviolent drug offenders — overwhelmingly young people, poor people, people of color. It's severely damaged the relationship between the police and those communities that…

This is the most disturbing sentence of the entire article, "The United States has no database of police shootings". Why the heck not?

My favorite part is that this project (which is great) has fewer rules than Gawker's how-to-comment-screed.

You don't need any of that crap. Turn your computer off and go outside.

New Sheltie in the family. Don't ask how many dogs have, just done. Okay, 4. 3 Shetland Sheepish dogs, one bitch Dachshund.

A friend of mine got told on the Fourth of July that her husband wanted a divorce. He blamed her for everything - she was too in to her career, she wasn't getting pregnant fast enough, and a bunch of other douche canoe things in a list that smelled, shall we say, fishy, from the beginning.

Mine was probably the most cliche. My wife had accidentally sent me the email she meant for the other guy. For the first time I understood what it meant when people say, "that it felt like all the air was sucked out of the room." It felt exactly like that. What a horrible day that was. Two years later and that…

Mayim Balik will be fine, she's successful on many many more levels. #girlcrush

As a heterosexual, married male, I must offer two responses to this article:

First, the positive: Thank you for the laugh. This was one of the most insightful, witty, cutting articles I've read in a long time—and it had me howling, until...

Second, the negative: I have realized I know far too many men—and far too many…

Your religious beliefs and affiliations are your choice.

The knee-jerk support for Israel from some Jewish people has always been disturbing to me. During one of the many conflicts between Israel and Palestine, a Jewish woman said that when her kids complained about their first-world problems she would tell them to think about the children suffering in Israel. And I…

Take a look at those pictures and try telling me they live in a warzone. Then try finding some luxurious selfies from the Palestinians getting carpetbombed.

"As a Jew, and as someone who has been raised to always support Israel (which, according to my parents, is my spiritual home, although I have never been)"

No wonder most Americans automatically side with Israel, we're both wealthy nations filled with shamelessly self-absorbed assholes so far removed from any conflict we enter that it's incredibly easy to cheerlead for atrocities. I wish I could even be surprised that Violent Nationalism Selfies are a thing, but I can't.

Retail employees are capable of re-jumbling letters without it causing them great stress and/or harm, y'all. In fact, it's much better to have a reason to straighten up the letters than fixing them when they're fine because it's 15 minutes until close and you need to look busy.
