I don’t think anybody cares much about a consensual affair. It’s gloat-bait, but it’s not going to change a lot of votes. It’s the fact that the Enquirer paid for her story and then refused to run it or let her take the story anywhere else that makes it interesting. The cover-up, not the crime, to murder an old…

Trump has had an endless stream of stories that were 10X worse than this every day for last 6 months and he is at his strongest point in the polls 4 days out from the election.

And his supporters are still on the team. Remember when his base said our president was going around apologizing for America? The America he hates? They were worried the rest of the world would laugh at us? Why are they not embarrassed by this creep? He lies. He has 5 kids by 3 wives, he’s had affairs, he’s…

I hate to be a Skeptical Sally here, but death threats to whom and from where? This woman’s identity is still a secret. Katie Johnson is a pseudonym.

And because GMOs are the *future* of veganism! Clearly if we can engineer vegan foods to be more nutritionally complete, with less pesticide use, and cheaper, that is going to make veganism easier! (Full disclosure: I am not vegan.)

I feel this way about lots of yoga communities too. As a long-time yoga teacher some of my best friends are yoga teachers and the ignorance can be astounding. Like, I love these people, but we cannot have conversations about things like vaccinations and climate change because they just don’t fucking get it.

I think it’s awesome that Durianrider cannot reproduce and Freelee has no desire to. The buck stops with them. I can’t think of a better outcome.

I literally can’t even finish reading this article because it makes me so mad. These fucking idiots (suggesting a girl could have lived if she ate raw vegan instead of going through chemo?!) make me so mad, and make me ashamed to be vegetarian-bordering-on-vegan. It’s so annoying being part of a community whose…

Isn’t it bizarre when you wind up in a little corner of the internet acting like a sleuth and trying to dissect drama that’s none of your business?? For a few weeks I was in this rabbit hole of some girl on tumblr who would beg for money and it turned out she just used it all on drugs and not her medical issues and…

i was so nervous through everything, but then the debates and the access hollywood tapes put me in a “LETS GET A LANDSLIDE!!11!” place...now I’m a fucking mess. Its so hard to be so invested in an outcome that you really can’t control. All I can do is vote and bring others to vote, but I can’t control how the story is…

This is legitimately the first time I’ve been afraid during this entire thunderfuck of an election season. I’ve been so confident in the American people and the electoral process that I truly was not afraid of Trump possibly winning. Now Anthony Weiner’s dick and an asshole with a vendetta might be the reason a cheeto…

I LOVE THIS

I was bullied mercilessly in school. It was...awful. I’m so glad that I was pretty much done with school before social media was a thing, or else I probably would’ve been in a similar situation. The worst that happened online is a guy from school spent the summer chatting with me on AIM and then turned out it was a…

My mom did criminal defense for 25 years in DC. She would regularly be called a bitch to her face by prosecutors.

You’re welcome. I’ve been debating whether or not to say this in my response but I think it is important.

Make sure you’re calm and bring it up in a neutral setting. Maybe write out bullet points of exactly why you find it so horrible and you’re worried that it’s a sign of more hidden bigotry before-hand.

Lots of folks are saying you should just dump him, but if you’ve been with the dude for 2 and a half years and this is the first instance of racism you’ve witnessed coming from him, I’d certainly at least talk to him first. People fuck up. Sometimes people fuck up badly (if every woman whose boyfriend has ever used a…

I think the important thing to ask him (if you still want to ask him things) is essentially “where the hell did that come from?” There’s a difference between a person who answers that question with “My racist jackass family member used to say that word all the time when I was little, and for years I copied them…

Yes, Chelsea is just pretending to smile from ear to ear when she talks about her mom and what she means to her. /s

Dear god I needed this.
