truth-has-a-liberal-bias:
On March 8, a family therapist named Marilyn Wedge, PhD published an ill-informed and poorly researched blog post, Why French Kids Don’t Have ADHD.
In the United States, 5% of school-aged children have been diagnosed with ADHD, and are taking pharmaceutical medications. In France, the percentage of kids diagnosed and medicated for ADHD is only .05%. How come the...

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN
I smell ads coming if this is true
I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT
I’m still skeptical as to whether this is even a real thing.
If it proves to be true, as much as I believe it will bring nothing but awfulness, what if they insisted on the...
The IRS and the Real Scandal
robertreich:
“This systematic abuse cannot be fixed with just one resignation, or two,” said David Camp, the Republican chairman of the House tax-writing committee, at an oversight hearing Friday morning dealing with the IRS. “This is not a personnel problem. This is a problem of the IRS being too large, too intrusive, too abusive.”
David Camp has it wrong. There has been a “systematic” abuse...

I’ve become quite a fan of onion in foods since I’ve been cooking for Jessica. Also, I never realized how much I like pepper in cooking, either.

I really want to make pancakes for dinner tonight: two regular, two chocolate chip, and two pineapple. Do I go ahead and make them without clearing it with Jessica, because she probably won’t see my text until she gets off work? I just don’t know.

Jessica and I are going to lunch/dinner with my grandparents Sunday evening, and we’ve got to pick where we’re going. We’re having a hard time deciding, because a lot of the places we’ve been to in our area of Jacksonville are surprisingly good, locally-owned places. We need help, so can anyone offer any of their own suggestions on good places in the Southside/Baymeadows...
Extreme Political Attitudes May Stem From an... →
Having to explain how a political policy works leads people to express less extreme attitudes toward the policy, according to new research published in Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science.
The research suggests that people may hold extreme policy positions because they are under an illusion of understanding — attempting to explain the nuts and bolts of...

Jessica and I went to Masala, on San Jose Blvd. It was fantastic! The atmosphere was cozy, the staff were friendly, and the food was great. It was a great first time for Indian food. I don’t know about how vegan some of their stuff is, but they had quite a few vegetarian options. Jessica and I thought their chicken curry was great, and that their naan was heavenly (but when isn’t...

Jessica and I are going to an Indian Buffet for lunch today. Whoo!
Neither of us is really familiar with Indian food, so this should be interesting.

Being on Tumblr all the time gives me such a deluded view of the world. I start believing that everyone is pro-choice, open-minded, have moral compass, care about animals, care about sexism, racism, body shaming, etc, but then I walk out my front door and realise that everyone is still just as moronic as they were two years ago.

what it basically boils down to is this:
maaaybe i’m a feminist killjoy and freedom-of-speech oppressor who “can’t take a joke”
