Her very name?

Lana Del Rey named herself after a pin-up model, for fuck’s sake. She doesn’t have a problem with sex appeal and taking your clothes off for pictures as long as it’s “old Hollywood glamour.”

It’s so hard for people to realize that they can do something unintentionally, without meaning to do it.

They’re not mutually exclusive.

If the first thing you, or anyone else, says or focuses on during this time is the looters - and you know, not the police brutality that started the whole thing, or the police using even more brutality to quash the protests, or the absolutely wretched “leadership” our presidential administration has been showing -

We all know that it’d be more effective for them to just give money, but quietly giving money doesn’t let the public know what you are doing - and posting support is a mix of self-preservation and capitalizing on a moment. Across social media, people have started to come down on brands who haven’t said anything - only

Because every neighborhood has a small cadre of people who like to gather, complain, and police. Those people are the lifeblood of NextDoor.

Yeah, I’m black and I moved into this rich white neighborhood less than a year ago. No thanks.

Yep, and it started to feel more and more like that as time went on.

WHERE IS JA?! I need him to help me make sense of all this shit!

Can confirm; half the population of Seattle is, in fact, from Michigan

“Unfortunately, an alarming and isolated incident occurred at our Vons store in Santee, where a customer chose an inflammatory method of wearing a face covering,” Hill said in a statement. “This was a disturbing incident for our associates and customers, and we are reviewing with our team how to best handle such

THIS, because I definitely just followed Auntie Paula. I love English vintage country style and her pics are gorgeous as fuck.

OH MY GOD this is a possibility I did not entertain. Not the baby statue, but the idea that in 20 or 30 years there are some groups that are going to want to put up statues of Trump. Or name libraries after him. Oh holy mother of god, this imbecile is going to get a presidential library. D:

I don’t know which part of his non-apology is worse: Thinking that your father’s employees have anything to do with your development of a moral compass; not realizing that invoking black farmworkers in subordinate positions to a white man is probably not the best thing to do here; or avoiding taking any fucking

Why don’t Publix and all of these other stores simply restrict how many of something people can buy? Stores do that all the time when they are running promotions: “limit 2 per customer,” or something.

Is he out of touch with reality? My cousin is a nurse in the Northeast and hourly pay in her area starts around $40/hour. Even in states that pay far less, the average pay for nurses is quite a bit higher than $24/hour. And she was telling me she’s getting offered travel nursing contracts that are $5,000 a week.

OK, so if this is wrong, where are the facts? Because all of the trustworthy, fact-based news sites are reporting the same thing, and we have records of Trump’s actual statements (he tweets constantly). Where are your alternative facts?

The sad part is that the Democratic candidates with solutions that would actually work in this scenario have been pushed out of the race by moderates and conservative Democrats. The “socialist” solutions that some of the more progressive candidates were advocating for - a universal basic income, universal health

No, Trump does not realize that and he does not care. He wants the nation opened back up by Easter Sunday. He keeps questioning scientists who are telling him it’s going to take up to a year or more to produce a vaccine and asking them why they can’t get it done in a matter of weeks. This man has never really worked a
