Jordan Klepper looks at the issue of sex education in schools

[demigoddessqueens]

The lack of self awareness from the woman who’s hair and clothes are hand-me-downs from the 90s

Prediction for other Americans: In a year or two when COVID-19 is winding down either just due to burnout or a vaccine there will emerge a narrative that it was tragic, and sad, but unavoidable, and people did what they could in the face of overwhelming odds.

This will be false.

The US has been far, far too slow in responding. Contrast our response with South Korea's, with their aggressive testing, containment, and mitigation. Notice how slow we have been in implementing measures that can slow the virus's spread. Notice how lack of insurance, paid time off, and a robust safety net will speed the virus's spread. Notice the lack of testing, and the spread of misinformation. This was, perhaps, not something that can be prevented, but it is absolutely something that can be mitigated, and our leaders and our country failed and continue to fail to take actions that can mitigate it.

Also the same men who purposely date women who are much younger than them and therefore are much less likely to be financially stable.

[theconcealedweapon]

Also the same men who feel emasculated when a woman makes more money than them.

[cookie-sheet-toboggan]

Also the same men who see unpaid labour as living for free.

its true that crying wont solve things but we dont cry to solve. we cry to release

Taking the lid off a pot that’s boiling too much wont solve the problem of the heat being too high, but it will release the pressure so you’ll have time to get the heat under control before everything inside the pot explodes

People keep posting ‘what’s REALLY in your food’ articles like I’m gonna stop eating whatever it’s about lmao Listen, death is coming. Death is coming. Pass me a hot dog.

You know what, developing boys shouldn’t be seeing this either. I’ve seen plenty of grown men who barely know what real (ie not photoshopped) women look like, especially in swim suits. Which leads to girls getting teased about their body by their peers from a young age.

No one should look at this shit

hot n cold by katy perry was such a 6th grade anthem like remember when people wore converse sneakers and would straighten only their bangs and had an ipod touch with the background that said muffins are just ugly cupcakes

OP you’re missing the best part

[chookiemunster]

You missed the best part. After they said “Unfortunately No”, they also said they were looking to be better than that. So, at least use the whole tweet.

They’re obviously listening to the community.

They’re actually trying

[northisnotup]

[orochiserge]

Yeah I was glad someone posted the full tweet. The gif above is definitely appropriate now

[zenkaiankoku]

They also just released a line made for male gamers designed by women, presumabely as a joke and aknowledging their mistake.
