Right, you need turmeric and coconut oil to cure cancer. Lemon juice only cures polio. Duh, everyone knows that

My wife and I are working through a trisomy 13 diagnosis right now.

When I was a kid, we adopted a husky-golden retriever mix. It was a true rescue - the poor guy was matted, malnourished, hair falling out, the works. He was an adolescent dog living in a 2 bedroom apartment with a family of 4 or 5 - I think they just thought they were getting a cute puppy, had no idea about his breed,…

My early term abortion was a welcome relief and paved the way for good things for many people (myself, my children, the father, the father’s eventual marriage and family). I’m sorry you had such a bad experience and hope you continue to get help with what you experienced.  Early abortion is not usually traumatic to…

My wife and I went through a very similar experience, but we are in Ohio. Went in for a routine check up at 20 weeks. The doctor came in and told us they suspected he had bilateral renal agenesis, meaning he didn’t develop kidneys and likely wouldn’t be able to develop lungs. Told us they have only ever had one case…

Thank you for your story. I’m so sorry for what happened to you.

My wife and I know how you feel. We had a late term abortion at 21 weeks after we found out our son Avett was diagnosed with HLHS. Your story brought it all back and as I sit here writing this with tears in my eyes please know you’re not alone. You and your husband share the same story with many of us. My wife and I…

Eat shit and fuck all the way off. No one forced you to read the article, no matter where it was posted.

When I saw the headline I knew something was off. People have been talking about these no-knock warrants for years and cops gave nary a fuck about them. Then there was the promise of charges. Charges against the police being talked about this soon? This did not compute. The cynic in me said that this couple must have…

“a common reaction among his friends, fans, and business associates was shock.”

No one’s saying it’s your fault as a man that other men do shitty things. You’re oddly committed to that disingenuous canard for someone who “doesn’t want to be made out like an MRA.”

The thing about this being a men’s issue is that it largely is. That doesn’t mean every man is guilty of it—but it does mean that we, as…

Yes, their comment literally read, “Kinja user fleshsword is a rapist”

No, it didn’t, and stop taking it so personally when the word “men” is used. You’re male and NOT a rapist? Great, then you shouldn’t be bothered one bit by that comment.

The problem is the low, low, low fucking standards that us men tend to hold for ourselves. Namely, that so long as I never “rape” anyone, as in drag a woman into the shadows and have my way with her, then I’m not a bad guy.

I have talked about deciding to adopt a Native American child ( I am a Native American and I was adopted myself). I thought that maybe a cousin’s child might be available, but there is already a huge support system in place. But, I did meet a tribal chairman who suggested just calling the tribal social services office…

“The greatest man who ever lived died via the death penalty for you and me,” she said. “I’m grateful to him for our future hope because of this. Governments were instituted to execute justice. If it wasn’t for Jesus dying via the death penalty, we would all have no hope.”

I didn’t learn until like decades later than she did it because she was routinely abused.  All I knew at the time was the “crazy bitch” narrative that she randomly cut of her husband’s penis.  Goes to show what the media cared about.

Jennifer Blagg, one of the attorneys representing Van Dyke, said he is being made the scapegoat for the entire Chicago Police Department.

that’s an easy answer though, Parrots can’t urinate. 

If she did make good on her threats, it would have been real awkward when his fellow police officers showed up to burn a cross on his lawn and lynch him.

Canadian tuxedo! Ha!
