Is that YaYa from ANTM? She should have won.

I’ve never understood the appeal of medical dramas. House was okay for a little while but the House is an asshole but he’s the only one capable of properly diagnosing things schtick got old fast.

Syllabi, at least in my college gave a general overview of what the class would be covered. Not a day by day breakdown of when a potentially triggering subject might be covered. Just because you personally don’t find trigger warnings necessary, doesn’t mean they aren’t for other people. I don’t have PTSD so I don’t…

What is logical about just assuming poor people must just all be stupid? You aren’t even making an argument, let alone using logic to make an argument.

I’ve never seen a class with the word rape in the title. There are likely classes devoted to the Holocaust, but it’s not like that’s the only time a genocide would come up. What are you even talking about? I seriously don’t understand what is so offensive about a professor taking one minute to warn their students that…

If you think mentally ill + poor = stupid, you're the stupid one. You right wingers are simply incapable of critical thought and nuance, aren't you?

Yeah, I think trigger warnings for rape, genocide and the like are a great idea. Not so that students can avoid the material but so that students who've been through trauma can prepare mentally for the material. But a few people have definitely taken it too far. I saw a TW for eyeballs once. Eyeballs. It wasn't even a…

The Democrats have gone to the right to appease big business. Most of them aren’t liberal. Presidents Obama, Clinton and Carter certainly aren’t. We haven’t had liberal policy changes regarding the economy, spending, labor or welfare since the sixties.

Forced birthers definitely want this type of punishment for women. They just can’t say it publicly because then moderates and apoliticals would recognize the forced birther movement for what it is. A bunch of misogynists who don't care about "babies" at all but instead want women to be second class citizens.

Happy, right wingers? With your anti-abortion crusading and economic policies that only benefit the wealthy you've finally succeeded in turning us into a third world theocracy. Good job!

That is a good point. Unless your last name is Lannister or Duggar, you should probably not gift relatives with music about wanting to be someone's blowjob queen.

I should think Exile From Guyville would appeal to any angsty teenage girl. But maybe I only say that because I was an angsty teenage girl when that came out.

Before reading this post and the comments, all I knew about Ed Sheeran is that he's a ginge and friends with Taylor Swift. Those were the days.

I just started watching Gilmore Girls for the first time and so far am not getting the appeal. Degrassi > Clarissa > Saved By the Bell (not the new class) > Gilmore Girls

That's just what I'm hoping for. The only place I can find the earlier seasons online are low quality pirated versions.

It is. Apparently if rejected contestants don't cry in the limo, the producers will browbeat them and bring up things in their personal life (dead pets and relatives etc.) in order to get them to break down.

I’ve done door to door election work a few times. There are people in every neighborhood and people of all races who don’t want to talk to canvassers, but it’s the suburban white people, especially in subdivisions who are actually offended that you’re there. Apparently to some people, the worst thing that ever happens…

They know a black guy lives there because from the second he moved in, the neighbors have been watching him to such an extent that Gladys Kravitz would think they were nosy. I guarantee it.

Seriously. I had a nerd rage on Sunday because on my laptop the new Game of Thrones wasn’t showing up on HBO Go right away on my laptop. After I finally watched the episode and had some wine I was able to reflect on how much of a white and first world problem having to wait two hours to see GoT is. White Americans are…

It's amazing how school faculty and staff manage to deal with crowds of teens everyday without violence and weapons. The doctors, nurses, and orderlies in emergency rooms and psychiatric wings deal with the mentally ill without violence and weapons everyday. Yet the sight of black teenagers or mentally ill people have…
