I’m really grateful for journalists taking care to report suicide compassionately and responsibly, so thank you. For anyone who is interested, the Samaritans guidelines are pretty good, IMO: http://www.samaritans.org/media-centre/m…

In this episode of Gawker Grammar Police, TheAngryMob feigns indignation over semantics instead of realizing the semiotic relevance of a tragic event and gets to eat humble pie for their ignorance. Read more

Thank you, good reporting of suicide saves lives. Read more

Pretty shitty of people to use an amputee veteran as a thin veil for their transphobia

I know she is 17, I know she’s made some questionable choices. And I know a lot of you hate her for a variety of reasons. But the booing at her introducing HER BROTHER-IN-LAW and people calling her fat? She’s going through something very few people have experienced on such a public stage and based on her interviews,… Read more

Every time I've forgotten this someone has reminded me. It is amazing how many humorless people are out there (in here?). Kill me if I ever lose perspective and the ability to lovingly laugh at myself and others Read more
