I can’t believe they had a lynching mural. In America. In the south. In a school. In 20FREAKING18!!!! Wtf? How the...what the...what else is out there that we don’t even know about yet??? Smh...

As a federalist, I believe that power should be decentralized

When he said all he knew about this guy was that he’d be taking on this financial burden for him I wanted to scream. What you know is that your daughter’s mother loves this man, that she plans to make a life with him, that he’s been there for your child, that she trusts him enough to make him this child’s legal…

so what? I have had friends who looked like adults when they were 12, just because they were tall and not “flat” - what does that imply or how does that justify anything or why is it strange or their fault..?

I must be hormonal right now because first I was tearing up over Miley’s cover of summer sadness (so good!) and now I’m teary over this. The way we treat women in this world is horrifying. And this, “The Yazidi girls, as well as information obtained from Sayyaf’s wife, put to rest conspiratorial rumors that Mueller…

MAKE THEM ABOUT OLD PEOPLE.

Sometimes reading these stories makes me bitter because just when I think I've reached the bottom of the well of stupidity and entitlement of the public, I learn that the well has no bottom. IT HAS NO BOTTOM, Y'ALL.

This is actually my dad's story but it's a family favorite that always gets trotted out at holidays and parties.

I think this deserves an honorable mention:

If you want a reusable version of the Swiffer, check out OXO's line of microfiber dusters. I just picked up an array of them and a washable refill for each and they work like nobody's business. When they're dirty, pop off the head and throw it in the washing machine.

Dr Bronner's Magic Soaps

Another one that's probably obvious to a lot of people, but I honestly can't get over how universally useful these things are. They're great for cleaning countertops and sinks, great for getting scuff marks off the walls, great for cleaning your shoes, they're pretty much good at everything. Sometimes I even spring…

Ah, the classic. We can't build a list of products that can clean anything without including these, and if I had a dollar for every vinegar or baking soda cleaning trick we've highlighted at Lifehacker I'd be very wealthy indeed. Long story short, with these two (not necessarily combined of course), you can clean just…

Also, in a major metro area, $8 for a house wine is totally normal. He didn't say anything about it being happy hour.

This woman sounds like an abusive mom, and it's sick that our society devalues children so much that parents are not only allowed but encouraged to treat their children like this. Seriously, it's times like this when I wish we had language like "misogyny" and "patriarchy" but for our collective hatred of and…

You're the one who cropped it that way, not her.

The fact that there is any amount of snark and derision towards Jaycee Dugard is FUCKING ASTONISHING considering what site we are on. That little girl was not only raped pretty much daily for the better part of a decade, she was forced to give birth to two children. She was in captivity for 18 years, which is an…
