In which I STILL don’t understand how people can know so little about the services they use. If you were the majority of Floridian customers I assisted during my shift at work this evening, you’ve just been through a massive 500-year storm that destroyed tons of shit, you either don’t have power or you’re running […]
In which a man suggests that women and men are, in fact, different. And gets fired for it. Isn’t there evidence that males tend to cluster, intellectually, more toward genius or idiocy, whereas females tend to cluster toward average? If so, this means that while there are, of course, both genius and idiot women, it […]
In which I continue to try to figure out why I care so much about people being wrong. today in the shower i gave an imaginary person a lecture about chiropractic: “chiropractic doesn’t do anything but separate people who can afford it from their money “there are one or two adjustments that actually do something, […]
retweeted a statistic about how the vast majority of dairy-related illnesses are due to raw dairy products (probably the trendy ones, drunk by hipsters and science-haters, rather than, you know, actual dairy farmers or small-holders drinking the stuff in their ranch houses, because with their knowledge they’re highly unlikely to poison themselves, amirite) and now […]
In which there’s a screen shot. This is from an article in The New Yorker about terrorists: The mania that goes along with falling in love? No, that’s not love. It’s lust, or possession, but it’s not love. Everyone should be taught this, even girls. …self-actualization and the unashamed consummation of certain lustful desires. No. […]
In which I lecture. This article advises you to immerse yourself in all the miserable details of your debt, and feel how bad you feel for an entire week, because apparently remorse and guilt will somehow magically attract money into your life. Because your debt is the result of your own terrible emotional flaws, and […]
In which there’s a screen shot. THIS IS A TWEET FROM THE WHITE HOUSE ACCOUNT: “During the last 8 years, Americans have been under attack from the federal government for following the tenets of their faiths.” Wait, what? Oh. No. No. No, no, no. Christians are not under “federal attack.” Trump’s basically agnostic, so this […]
In which I’m just going to go right ahead and say that maybe the reason women didn’t traditionally run universities was because everybody knew we’d start giving out PhDs in queer vegan comic blogging. This is another anti-feminist rant. I know, I know, nobody cares. I get that. It’s fine. Listen, I know I’m a […]
In which I’ve read so much socially acceptable male-bashing bullshit online today, I just can’t even. But I’m going to anyway, and it’s this: what if society was structured with women’s and men’s spheres mostly separate… for a reason? Maybe women domesticated ourselves, just like cats, deliberately. Also, I’ve been out of school a long […]
In which I don’t understand. Why do store-bought dips suck? I bought a huge container of artichoke-jalapeno dip last weekend, and while it isn’t exactly inedible, it’s really not good. You can safely buy salsa — well, many of them, at least — and those sort of 70’s-style chip dips (like French onion or whatever), […]
