Lot of conservative dudes out there telling on themselves by being astounded by a level of ”logistics” that the average mom has to manage every fucking day

As we usher in the new year, we also wanted to celebrate the achievements of a giant in the hashtag#osteoarthritis community.

The staff and associate editors at Genome are great. It is wonderful to work with a group that 'tries a little harder'.

The Case for Sticking Around - Alberta Views Let’s not quit Canada. Let’s make it better for everyoneβ€”including Albertans

Why should Alberta stay in Canada? The reasons aren’t just economic or legal. I hope you will read and share my robust rebuttal to those trying to break up our country. And I hope you’ll respond. #cdnpoli #Alberta #ableg #abpoli #Canada #SenateofCanada

I can't be the only one who sees "FAQs" as an acronym and pronounces it like "Facts"?

Typical tech bros, they could have saved so much time, money, precious metals and energy if they'd just asked a passer by to kick them in the nuts instead.

God damn them all.
I was told we’d cruise the seas
For America’s worst
We’d fire our guns
Shoot the queers,
Now I’m a broken man
Who cowers in fear,
Felonious Trump’s last privateer.

To stop drug boats, GOP lawmakers want to license privateers A bill introduced Thursday looks to revive a presidential power from the age of sail, by which Trump could issue letters of marque authorizing private raids at sea.

Oh, the year was 20 and 25
(How I wish I was in Europe now)
When a letter of marque came from The Prick,
He’s the scummiest President and a dick.

We can normalize actually reading the items we cite (or at least checking that they exist and say what we think they do)

The path to this paper has so many stories.

Today I want to tell one about the value of saying so when you don't have the answer - and of the importance of community.

People often ask: what can ordinary people do to stop populists like Trump and Smith from running roughshod over democratic norms?

Populists rely on the widespread perception that their actions are supported by "the majority" and "common people."

Anything that punctures that myth helps. +
