I know this isn't really the right place to put this, but I don't know/can't remember how to email you and I thought you might be interested in this child-rape coverage.

I am in Madison. So close, and yet so far. I do visit Minneapolis on occasion, though, due to friendship.
I am hosting a caftan and casserole party next weekend! Mad excited.
Every woman can take this attitude for the aspects of their life that they have total control over, but for most women that is extremely limiting.
God I wish some magazine would just publish un-retouched images like these. Show the girls that it is ok to have the tummy and the "imperfections" and you can still be as fab as Mariah Carey.
Yesterday I finally decided to go on a Facebook hiatus, to see how that goes. I will miss my Facebook friends who I don't see on a regular basis, but perhaps it will be worth it to opt out of the evil company and not be subject to all the negativity that seems to fester on there lately.
My nephew always yells CANDY BALL!!!! instead of "cannon ball!" which is extra funny because he yells it not just when swimming, but also when he crashes into people (which is a lot) or jumping off of things (also a lot).
it kind of looks like he also physically harassed her in addition to verbally.
So, I am very easily affected by things (one time I took Nyquil and had an extremely trippy night) and as such do not generally partake in anything beyond booze. However, one day when I was 29, my good friend was having a birthday party at his house. Beforehand I was rushing around crazy trying to make a snack to…
One time I was stuck in traffic and there was a Jax Teller look-a-like on a Jax Teller look-a-like motorcycle right behind me. I really wanted to take a picture of him to send to my sister but I decided it was too creepy (also he would have had a clear view of me taking a picture of him, so....)
I don't care at all that he lashed out (actually I don't care at all about Jonah Hill) but it was his use of that particular word as his go-to insult that's the problem. When you throw out slurs it is never excusable.
Someone please tell me there is a branch of the FBI whose responsibility is to track these forums and pursue threats that surface.
Hmmmmm, very good point. I still think it is somewhat similar though as far as the semantics. You want to define the child or the woman before you talk about this aspect of them that does NOT define them.
it's similar to "autistic children" versus "children with autism." In "battered women," the battering part defines them but in "women who are battered," they are women who have just had something happen to them.
It is the height of irony that this piece, which is intentionally offensive, inflammatory, and misleading, ends with a plea to "put down the arms and speak well of one another, see the best in one another, respect one another, and love one another."
Had I been a boy, I would be Marshall, after my Grandpa. Which is fine, but I maintain that his original name before he immigrated and "Americanized" it would have been better: Marcello Luigi.
Yeah but the MOTHERFUCKERS really takes it to the next level of awesome.
Yep, exactly. I definitely do not want to detract from her sense of loss, because I am sure it is devastating. I've been there! But the way she talks about it does seem rather adolescent and melodramatic, like you said. Here, she is literally comparing it to a mother losing her child.
