No matter where you shop, you're getting screwed by Amazon. Amazon has found a way to make everything you buy - at Target, at a mom-and-pop shop, even direct from the manufacturer - more expensive. And they're not the only one: Expedia's done the same thing, but for hotel rooms.
A faded, scratched postcard advertising the 'Edge of Town Motel.' Next to the motel sign is a vast pink piggybank, out of whose slot rises a motel key on a diamond keychain, emblazoned with a metallic dollar-sign.

It's so heartbreaking to see a 14 year old child have to write a piece detailing how abusive adults have been to them over being themselves. They got horrifying threats. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

People understand gender differently, and I was taught to respect all ideas. But the vitriol I recently experienced was not a healthy debate

Given Trump’s Easter threats to carry out new war crimes in Iran, we should think one or two steps ahead about a coup attempt connected to the war. And then deter it. (1/17)

“How to train your dragon” is exactly how you do a live action remake. You know how every scene will play out, but it’s still fantastic beginning to end. My teenage kids are also raving about it.

I’ve never seen Pete this angry and rightfully so. Trump and his administration are incompetent and they are putting this country in danger. Unbelievable fuckup.!
