Many years ago, when I was 21 I had an abortion. When I waited to go into the operating room a nurse waited with me and she held my nervous hand in hers, not saying anything, just a strong grip on my hand making me feel that I wasn’t alone. I think of that nurse often, and how her touch calmed and strenghtened me.

same with mine, no one but the person receiving the procedure in the treatment room.

Holy shit, if this woman did not consent to this, let her rain fire and brimstone upon them until even their bones have turned to ash. I want their children’s children’s children to still be paying her, and I want these people in jail.

I don’t know what kind of coroner’s office or jurisdiction you’re in, but that description is not only incorrect but offensive. Coroners are medical personnel who are trained in the safe and ethical treatment of human remains. In some cases the remains are a part of a criminal investigation and as such are even more…

This is not strictly true. People are assholes if you are allergic to ornamental flowers in my experience. Hyacinths make me feel like I want to die. They make my eyes swell shut, and I sneeze uncontrollably if I get anywhere near them. People get offended if asked to move or remove arrangements containing them or…

My mom gave me some leftover frozen scallops. I forgot to put them in the fridge and left them in my car for 10 hours. Cooked them, ate them and survived.

I had fried catfish and a grain salad earlier in the week, and then I made blackened chicken and a salad last night. I also consumed an omelette made by someone else, a Sausage McMuffin, and various leftovers (living alone also means no one sees or smells you if you eat reheated fish for breakfast).

I cannot fathom why all weddings are not like this. Fuck your classy bullshit - here’s whats going to happen. Nobody will eat enough, the best man (the grooms last single friend, now into his 30’s and lonely all while claiming he LOVES his carefree lifestyle) is going to end up fertalizing one of your overpriced…

I just love people who think the Underground Railroad was an actual railroad...

I didn’t say anything about the person who she would be sharing the bill with. Nothing in my comment implied that I am ignorant of history.

I think it’s one of those things where any acknowledgment of injustice is seen as militant/impolite/extreme (and Viola Davis is recognizing that some people will be determined to see it as militant). Because that serves to preserve the existing power structure. Like how women who would prefer not to be catcalled, for…

It’s, at least in part, about it being a flirtatious or knowing gesture. Like, you don’t know me and we’re not trying to fuck each other right now so wtf are you doing wiking at me?

Is it just me or does this guy look like an actual goblin? Like, if there were a news report tomorrow that he had a basement full of hobbit bones, I would not be the least bit surprised.

SLAM-DUNK! CASE CLOSED! CLICHE’!

“His wife, who works for a plastic surgeon who treats women who’ve had mastectomies. His point being that cancer kills, and we could “quadruple” cancer spending if we only defunded Planned Parenthood”.

It’s not even that big, when you look at what men heading financial firms or tech companies or (ANY industry, basically) make, and those dudes basically make a living moving money from one pile to another and sucking each others dicks.

A lot of people really don’t get that Bike statistics are worse because so many riders don’t get any real training.

Machines are very predictable. How they respond really isn’t as important as they’ll respond the same way every time.

by not hitting it rather than getting all butt hurt because it’s “scary”

I love my Ugly Bro’s
