What we are not going to do is pit Simone Biles against Taylor Swift. Both are badass women who are at the top of their respective fields. Let’s celebrate both.

My dad does this with himself, except it’s to get his own nap. He turns on some random golf tournament and is out like a light in 20 minutes.
@Aonghus_Carone
American here. This exact same thing happens after every single report of a mass shooting here. It’s exhausting. The attack isn’t even over before they start with their rhetoric.
Some people are racist, some people are doing it for propaganda and some people just love drama.

You’re the fashion editor for the New York Times so I assume you know that it’s a fundraiser for the Met and she probably got her ticket paid for by a designer so it was free for her.
That begs the question…why are you being intentionally obtuse?
@TheSunUS
A guy who made his career sharing a love of reading with children calling the banning of children’s books “bullshit” is not a blunder. It is a statement of fact and should be applauded.
I just saw Grace McCallum at Target. I don’t know what the protocol for grown adults seeing their favorite gymnasts is but I just ignored her and immediately tweeted.

I looked into Tim Ballard and Operation Underground Railroad a few years ago and other organizations who fight human trafficking don’t have many good things to say about him.
I can be against child trafficking and be against Tim Ballard portraying himself as a Jesus figure.
I am not a kid person. I don’t have kids. I don’t want kids. I don’t like spending more than an hour around any kids.
I would GLADLY take an increase in my own taxes to pay for kids to get free food at school and increased funding for education in general.

There are unlucky people whose entire jobs will now entail going through those files in hopes of identifying who the perpetrators and victims are.

I’m honestly very worried that I’m going to catch a serious disease and not notice until it’s too late because my chronic illness-laden baseline is “perpetually miserable.”
@notcapnamerica
People seem to think there are no serial killers anymore. They’re still here. They just got smarter by targeting homeless people, sex workers and minority populations that police don’t care about investigating.
All the ones who target pretty white girls get caught early.

This apparently happened in 2020.
The athlete who filed the lawsuit apparently came in sixth in the race she was complaining about, so she’s not even the ‘fastest girl in that race.’
She also beat the trans athlete in a race two days later.

I don’t know a lot about Satan worshippers, but I doubt giving Satan a lap dance then killing him is what a worshipper would do. Would a dedicated Christian do that with Jesus? Of course not.

I’m hoping that whatever is or isn’t done during the broadcast is based on what Peter prefers. He should be able to dictate the visibility on the stream completely, imo.
It’s interesting that some BYU fans claim Utah fans are just people who couldn’t get into BYU when BYU’s starting quarterback is only there because he couldn’t get into the U.
There is a man being interviewed who is crying and saying he feels horrible that he escaped instead of trying to take the shooter down. He says he’s lived his life and that the kids there are so young. This is heartbreaking.

Last time this happened to me was on the interstate near an overpass. I was driving my husband’s car so instead of thinking, “I’m going to fall off the overpass and die,” I was thinking, “[Husband] is going to kill me if I dent his car sliding on the snow.”
@MetroUK_Life
I thought this was going to be about taking advantage of WFH by only working a few hours a day and shirking some of your responsibilities, but no. It’s about maintaining a healthy work-life balance and not doing unpaid labor.
And people are actually saying this is a BAD thing.

Meanwhile Boomers can’t figure out how to do basic office tasks on a computer, and they find it to be a positive character trait.
It’s true. As I was sitting in RES on Saturday watching the Utes win their 11th game of the season, which aired on national TV because they’re the number 5 team in the country, I sipped my Mtn Dew and thought, “Man, I envy BYU’s sponsorships.”
Utah may beat BYU on the field but no denying BYU is far more dominant with their TV affiliation with ESPN, clothing with Nike and beverages with Coca-Cola Products.

Article I read said he was there on attempted assault charges for threatening to kneecap a guy. Attorney recommended probation, judge said jail would be better, he jumped her.

The testosterone didn’t make him say that her trying to resist him made her look more “feminine.” The dude was a rapist on his own. The testosterone just made him horny.

That’s the problem. There are people who trust him.
And as much as we’d all like to ignore it and pretend it doesn’t exist, we have to realize his sensationalism is a real thing that impacts people.

In fairness, we’ve been distracted by a whole bunch of other shady, stupid and illegal things he’s done since then and we don’t have enough hours in the day to be appropriately angry and outraged about every terrible thing he does.

Treating women fairly means we critique them on their positions and actions the same way we would critique men, not accepting or dismissing them simply because they are women.

In fairness to all of us, someone saying “I’d rather put a gun in my mouth” when Ben Shapiro is involved is an extremely likely scenario.

Kerri Strug was sexually, mentally and physically abused, as were the rest of her teammates and hundreds of other gymnasts, and agreeing to compete while injured is a result of that abusive relationship.
She also didn’t need to compete the vault - the US would’ve still won.
A UCLA fan said attendance is down because ticket prices have gone up and are now unaffordable. I checked on StubHub and tickets to the Utah game start at $48.
$48.

You must be in your mid-20s. Tons of people talked about the inappropriateness of Eminem’s lyrics. It was a huge issue back when he first came out.
The difference is that Eminem isn’t the one who has spent the last five years embarrassing himself with his textbook manic behavior.

It’s intentionally ambiguous and designed to get engagement.
Both interpretations are technically correct which means everyone gets to feel smart and argue about the other people being wrong.
No real math test would ask the question formatted like that.

No it isn’t. There’s no rule that people have to spend their time and money on certain things. No one has to have children.
@IwriteOK
Half of mass shooters were suicidal at the time of the shooting and most expected to die during the attack - for many shooters, an attack is just a complicated suicide. The risk of serious injury or death isn’t going to deter them. The death penalty isn’t going to deter them.
