What I don't understand is what's wrong with less white? I say this as someone who's as white as you can get without suffering from albinism. How can it possibly matter if the next generation is less white than this one? Or if more of your neighbours have darker skin than they used to? Why does this scare people?

Timing is such a huge concern everywhere that I'm surprised it didn't make this list. Yes, obviously total amount is important, but all teachers in the North know that the storm needs to start by midnight, then keep going solidly until the superintendent wakes up at 4:30, and be forecasted to continue until after noon.

Somewhat! That's definitely one of the problems. Marketing departments should be doing more to be inclusive in their outreach, for sure. Except then it gets tricky—because while opera companies look like they have hefty budgets on the surface, most of that is going to the artistic costs of mounting a production, since…

What is the reason that smart guns would be a bad thing? They would still be sold for profit, right? Is there someone lobbying for more dead toddlers? I don't get it...

I see one trolly type is making comments about boys and puberty, but honestly I think this all misses the point: the girls winning may not last forever, but for now they have the confidence to know that they can even TRY (and sometimes succeed) at standing up to a group of male humans and win.

Could be worse. Could have received "Glitter."

Seriously, what happened to good old monster/alien targets? THEY'RE THE REAL ENEMY.

i honestly wouldn't be surprised if taylor was fiscally moderate/conservative , but i HIGHLY DOUBT she would a) approve of having her likeness used here or b) be against college for kids

One of my husband's brothers didn't come to our wedding. Given we only had a three month engagement, but we both got the impression that beyond financial issues it was really about this being my husband's second marriage and his brother thought that this was going to be another screw up like the last one. He even…

Thanks for pointing this out and honestly it had never occurred to me. I just changed my Amazon Smile donation to Distributing Dignity. I will call some of the area donation places in the morning.

I second that. What would have been better revenge is something on the lines of "vendors mysteriously cancelling" as it clearly sounds like the bride used her to get her wedding planning shit done for FREE. Not cool.

I quite enjoyed Selma but I found it to be a rather straightforward biopic. I wouldn't describe it as bland AT ALL but certainly formulaic (the formula being the standard beats of a biopic). Yet I found both Birdman and Boyhood to at least be somewhat different/interesting in their construction (i.e., looking like…

If he's going to foot all the medical bills, including those from complications due to the pregnancy and birth, provide reimbursement for missed work due to pregnancy, birth, and recovery, maintain sole custody and responsibility of the child, and all of it was written up signed, sealed, delivered, and legally…

Correction :

you're 100% being a jerk the snow blows off your roof making it harder to drive behind you.

And are 80+ years old with varying degrees of blindness and/or other disability, with no worries about having to ever retest for their driver's license because there's so many of them voting in FL that any measures instituting any form of testing will get shot down.

I don't think people realize how many straight men are flight attendants. As a former FA myself, I didn't necessarily have a problem with 'stewardess' but found it disrespectful to my male colleagues. While many men are probably fine being called policemen or firemen, we have changed the terminology to be more…

Why do a crew of ANA, Korean Airlines or Singapore Airlines F/As always look amazing when they walk through the terminal

For people who are actually thoughtful about these things, it means that a person can't claim their rights if those rights do actual harm to another individual. So, using speech as an example, person A's right to say something stupid doesn't negate person B's right to call person A an idiot. Person A might get all…

You can expect to be hearing from my attorneys as well.
