Why Lyft and Uber Endanger Both Passengers and Drivers: A Former Lyft Driver Speaks Out

Ridesharing apps like Uber and Lyft are a great idea in theory, but in actuality they’re quite dangerous — for the passenger and the driver. I should know; I’ve been both.

Movie Review: “Life Partners” is About a Lesbian, Not a Man

I know you probably read the longline (Two codependent best friends — one straight girl, one lesbian — and the man who comes between them.) and wanted to shoot yourself, but this movie isn’t about a man at all AND it’s pretty good.
