It’s stupid because it’s comparing women to blackness, as if they are two separate issues, completely ignoring the fact that they intersect for black women. Racism is bad, sexism is bad, but you can’t declare one to be “worse”. Trying to fix one without the other just creates a divide where there doesn’t need to be…

Yeah, if only they would bring the pizza to us.

Except, as an introvert who is related to an autistic person, these small, daily interactions are the practice we need to get better at other small, daily interactions. Also, it might be the only human contact we get for a while. It’s annoying, to be sure, but needed to live.

Ono coined it, Middler repeated it. Phrase remains stupid.

She was in Hocus Pocus, which was not that good of a movie. I don’t know what the fuss is about.

I tip the standard array of workers who should be tipped. I generally don’t tip fast food. I agree with your comment about raising the minimum to living wage, but the DC law would have only brought servers up to minimum, and then I would keep tipping out of habit, I guess.

Amazing how he can put innocent kids through so much mental and physical anguish, and then he can’t handle a few weeks in a cell before trying to off himself.

Yeah, but in the meantime, though, keep tipping.

Nope, they still get paid standard minimum wage (not tipped minimum wage like other restaurant workers). There are a few nicer MDs around, but I have yet to see a tip jar or a tip line on the receipt. But I wouldn’t be surprised if the employees we’re divvying up the Ronald McDonald House charity money. I don’t blame…

To be fair, there is no possible way of obtaining an iPod except to buy it brand new*. Also, electrical outlets can only be found in houses, so this homeless man must be going home to charge that thing.

The obvious solution is to only board Amtrak in Boston or D.C. That way you are always the first stop on the NE corridor route and thus guaranteed a seat. If you need to get on in NYC, then you’re fucked.

“Okay, fine. You win. Being a slave-owner doesn’t make you racist.

Thanks for writing this article, but I couldn’t finish reading it. My brain broke trying to parse this man’s logic about 3 paragraphs in. I need to lie down...

I used to work at a grocery store. Too bad I can’t use that excuse to poke around the backs of other grocery stores (or even the one I used to work at), because yeah, I know all to well the difference between a well run shop and one that might have a corpse in it.

When my aunts and uncle wanted to protest inequality in the ‘60s, they got blasted with water from a fire hose. Meanwhile, 50+ years later cops are out for blood after getting hit with water that was NOT from a high-velocity water cannon.

I also have a naturally loud speaking voice, but that’s why I compensate by being mindful of when and where I take a call. Like I close my office door or I go outside. I also just don’t like people overhearing my bidness.

As my username suggests, I actively avoid the human race as much as possible.

Hey now, I’m heterosexual and I have an opposing view of life.

Are heterosexuals in sex jail? Because that flag represents sex jail. And not the sexy kind of sex jail.
