The connection between narcissism and eating disorders. It’s important to remember, though, that it is very much possible to have any kind of an eating disorder and not to be a narcissist or to be a narcissist and have the healthiest eating habits in the world.
A dumb-ass journalist with zero understanding of drug use chides Nancy Reagan for. . . having zero understanding of drug use. All in all, this fixation of wives of famous people screams Mommy issues. Which, of course, places one at risk for – guess what? – drug use.
How environmentalists become climate science denialists.
Instead of paying huge amounts of money to people for having children (like governments do in European countries including Russia and Ukraine), measures should be taken to making caretaking easier for women: “A policy that lowers the child care burden specifically on mothers can be more than twice as effective at increasing the fertility rate compared to a general child subsidy.”
What everybody needs to understand about Bernie’s “Free College for Everybody” plan: “Sanders’s own summary of his College for All Act makes it pretty clear that the act would not, in practice, eliminate college tuition. What it would do instead is offer federal matching funds on a 2-to-1 basis to states that want to increase higher education spending in order to eliminate tuition.” And since most states want the exact opposite, the plan is dead already.
Of all the dumb ideas I have ever heard, this one definitely makes top ten: “We have known for some time that one of the reasons the US was unable to build a socialist welfare state like western Europe was our history of slavery and attendant racism. (It seems many Americans would rather be poor themselves than allow the government to provide any breaks to African Americans.)” I mean, it’s OK to be stupid, I guess, but what I can’t stand is triumphant, unapologetic stupidity.
Have you heard of “sapiosexuality”? It’s one of many products of a puritanical society.
Busy brag and failure brag get on my nerves, too. Busy brag, especially.
“So when you’re in a voting booth in November, wondering if you should maintain your purity and not vote if your preferred candidate isn’t on the Democratic ticket, know that you’ll have the potential bodies of women stacked up on your conscience.” A tad dramatic but true.
