The interview with the woman who had the abortion was one of the best things I read all year - on any site - and I’m so glad it reached that many people.

Yup. Burchard-Risch’s decision not to even apologize in court for her behavior seems to indicate she’s an asshole who also happens to be struggling with alcohol addiction.
According to CBS, her attorney said that the woman isn’t a “lunatic” or a “racist,” but someone with an “alcohol problem.” Burchard-Risch, meanwhile, had nothing to say, either to Jama or to the court.
“But I just wanted to tell you in front of everybody today that I do forgive you. My religion teaches me to forgive so that I can move on with my life. If I hold a grudge and I hold the hate you hold towards me against you, it’s not going to serve me well. So in front of everybody here, I do forgive you, and I hope…
Kellyanne Conway is a terrible person, but I did think that was a funny line. Especially with all of the womanizers in the Trump administration.
One thing we can all do is refuse to watch Celebrity Apprentice, now hosted by sexual harasser/housekeeper knocker-upper Arnold Schwarzenegger. If NBC gets terrible ratings, that’s a good thing, and that keeps money away from Trump.
Real life lawyer here.
I hope that young people of today are tired of our fake reality tv bullshit and they’ll embrace documentaries and science and all the good, sincere parts of the world and when it becomes cool to worship at the feet of physicist and biologists all will be right with the world once again.
Saleh has made several hoax videos that have gone viral, including one just last week where he pretended to stow away on a different airline, and an infamous one in 2014 that purported to show the NYPD harassing them when they were in more traditional shalwar kameez-style tunics and kaffiyehs. They later admitted the…
Call me crazy, but that sounds like a very odd matching. Taylor Swift and Rooney Mara? I’d sooner think you’d see Tilda Swinton and Angela Landsbury at Mardi Gras
Rooney Mara’s family owns the Steelers and the Giants, she is not hurting for money.
Force them all to audit the course. Maybe they’ll learn something outside of their echo chamber.
This political trend right now that is propagating the notion that legislatures should have the final say over the academic work done at colleges and universities is absolutely, nightmare-inducingly chilling.
“Whiteness” is a construct designed by a particular group of people in order to exclude particular other groups and deny them their rights. It has been used to mean or to exclude a variety of people of varying skin tones and ethnic backgrounds, depending on what was convenient at the time. “Blackness” is also a social…
The problem is your refusal/inability to read the word in context. “Whiteness” is clearly not referring to the immutable physical trait in this instance.
Yeah, it’s almost as if you have to think more deeply about what the phrase means instead of taking it at its most literal interpretation. Like a university student.
people need to learn to separate criticism of an entity from criticism of the individuals who make up that entity. Hating “Whiteness” as a structural inequity is way different from hating “You, White Person”. Same way I can say “organized religion is awful” and respect You, A Religious Person, exercising your shit.
Well this is what we need. Politicians without degrees making determinations about course offerings at universities.
