“one of the most shameful chapters in the history of the United States Senate,” he said.

And it’s not always the case. Berlin for example has laws that let you ride on the sidewalk. You just yield to pedestrians. In Buenos Aires the bike lane is physically yielded by concrete. 

Cyclists CAN cross the street safely by stopping and following green lights and crossing on the sidewalk. They are not mutually exclusive. 

THANK YOU. I ride my bike on streets where it makes sense and on the sidewalk when I feel I’m safer doing so. Some people give me dirty looks, but they will forget in 6 seconds, a lot faster than I would recover if I were to be hit by a truck going 45 mph- if I were to survive at all (I live in the South so 6 out of…

They are everywhere in my city. I could totally use one for my commute which is too uphill for a bike, too long to walk, and too stupidly short to drive.  But I also have a nose job and a crown on my tooth (non-Americans: we ususally have to pay for these babies. Dearly) and am in the middle on Invisalign. Considering…

You win today.

This is an awful cover of a majestic song. 

I have a hard time accepting the fact that the Ice and Fire saga went from being a fantastic, thought provoking, mind expanding, at times problematic masterpiece to a world-wide TV and tourism phenomenon. I see people online who have a hard time understanding the nuance in Sesame Street champion themselves as the…

That is awful. I didn’t think about it that way but now that you say it... Yeah. Pretty much every violent crime out there - murder, rape, theft, terrorism, genocide can be traced down to usually men being angry at now having what the world “owes” them and simply taking it.

This gets better and better. Chad Thundercock. That one is genuinely funny. 

Where do you meet incels? I am objetively attractive, go between a LOW paying social sector job to a few years sabbatical when I feel like it because my husband who makes six figures and I agree that when I am stressed I am no fun to be around, rarely cook, sometimes clean, spend a lot of time playing guitar or making…

Ummm... I am pretty slutty and I love to 69? I don’t even know why I answered this. 

Wow... You don’t know how shit like this hits you until it does. Signed: a blonde, white skinned Latina who came here legally and is now crying at her desk with a feeling of hopelessness she can’t quite explain. 

I emigrated from South America carrying those same thoughts. I am SO lucky I went to a liberal arts college, my 4 years spent surrounded by ivy-covered walls completely molded me into the human I am now. When I travel back home, I constantly hear things like “I don’t have a problem with dark skin, I just hate people…

I need to print and frame this.

I am completly flabbergasted that in AMERICA, the country of in-your-face patriotism, the notion that citizenship can be taken away, doesn’t cause the masses to revolt in an uproar. I guess it’s the country of apathy too.

Can we put aside these allegations and the seriousness of them to appreciate for a second that all these people are dressed and standing like they are creating some sort of worldview shattering fashion arthouse film? Y’all... You are making a porn. You are filming people boning so people at home can watch for 2.3…

I’m always confused by young people adopting styles from an era they didn’t live in and saying how they love the 90s-80s-70s whatever. First off, they ALWAYS love the decade in fashion du jour. All the kids now claim they love the 90s, you’d be hard pressed to find one that’s into the hair band aesthetic. Second,…

Old Coach doesn’t count. They did make nice plain bags a long time ago. So did Dooney and Burke. Good buys for sure.

I’m not super rich. I’ve spent a million over my lifetime give or take. I have stock in a couple of companies that could buy me a house or retirement in a cheap country. I drive a 70k car that is paid off after 3 years. I just don’t think money is a taboo subject. It being such a hush hush issue honestly hurts more…
