Right, but wouldn't religious discrimination at a graduation ceremony then be outside the bounds of the law?

But aren't high school diploma's (somehow) regulated by the government? Like, they're not just denying her the right to walk in graduation (which would probably have been legal, since it's a private school), but to deny her the right to a degree is different, right? Because high school degrees are (kinda?) legal…

This is not news. Feminists have been talking about this for years. I hate it when nobody listens to feminists caterwauling and then like two decades later they're all, "OMG THIS IS TOTALLY A THING!" and the feminists are like, "YEAH NO SHIT" and then the other people are like, "This is a new phenomenon; usually it's…

Maybe it means people who were convicted of sex crimes that are no longer considered crimes, or who've been released from the requirement of having their information posted to those sites because their crimes are no longer considered sex crimes—like Romeo and Juliet cases, or streakers, or whatever. I mean, there is a…

I think maybe that Black Americans experienced the death of Martin Luther King Jr. in ways that maybe weren't all about white people. So no, I don't think that "awkwardly attempting to elicit Very Special Episode-style moments is exactly how most black people would have experienced" the assassination. Black people…

Something similar happened to me. I'm blonde and moderately attractive, but very outgoing and kind of melodramatic in high school. Also I had a terrible, horrible case of ADHD which everyone ignored because I skated along in school with Bs and B+s and my parents don't believe in mental illnesses like that. The summer…

It wasn't the fact that he's attractive that left me surprised when I learned that Ashton Kutcher went to school for biochemical engineering. It's that I knew him from Punk'd and he seemed like a fucking idiot.

Have you told this to your boss? Or the HR department? You should be very scared of this man. If he has a history of violence, especially violence against women, and you're in his crosshairs, then you are in danger. Seriously. Talk to someone, tell people about this creepy guy.

What is a bootybroker? Is that a pimp?

RESTRAINING ORDER STAT.

You might want to mention this story to your uncle and your dad someday. That way, the next time something like this happens (and there will be a next time. There always is.), they'll be less inclined to dismiss your spidey senses. Our bodies are trained to react to predators—rabbits are afraid of foxes even if…

You clearly have no idea how stalking and the escalation of violence against women works. This is classic proto-stalker behavior. This is the kind of behavior that people look at after a man kills a woman on the street, and then everyone says, "She should have known that he was dangerous/going to kill her. Just look…

It's not stupid, as others have said. The first few years (including hours) of a baby's life has a surprisingly large impact on its development. But a few years ago an NFL player, Kevin Everett, was injured during a game, and broke his neck. It was the kind of injury that causes almost full body paralysis. The…

There used to be a soap store around the corner from my partner's work. The owner would give him soap for free all the time (small businesses, tit-for-tat type thing). He had grass scented soap, which was ok, but nothing was as awesome as dirt scented soap. It was so awesome, it smelled like gardening in the spring.…

Plus he publicly said he wasn't going to mock Britney Spears when she was having her very public, very openly mocked breakdown a few years ago. Since he's struggled with alcoholism and stuff, he didn't feel right mocking her when she was hitting bottom so publicly and so painfully. I thought that was enormously classy…

Some of those pictures are clearly of teenagers. They are going to get in trouble for having child porn on their site. I hope they go to jail.

I actually don't think that most people know this. Actually, I think very, very few people know this.

I still remember when I was a kid, maybe 15 years ago, asking my father who Yoko Ono was (she was on TV and I didn't recognize her, and was just getting to the point where I generally recognized people on TV). He said, "She's the woman who broke up the Beatles."

Yeah, I'm sure that $100,000 fine will cover the costs of fixing the mess.

I think that there were a lot of women doing a lot of stuff in the 60s and (especially) 70s. Those decades were kind of big for important non-white non-men.
