I honest to God don't know what to reply to that...that's just...wow.

Because I grew up in the south surrounded by racist southern Baptists (and racist southern Catholics, Protestants etc. etc.). Do I know ones that aren't? Absolutely. But they are also absolutely in the minority.

I should also add that I've listened more times than I can count to the "fact" that the Bible itself says…

I was thinking to myself 'seriously? does your wife NOT get that her hair can't be brushed into a perfect little mass of white curls?'. But they are the kind of people who aren't going to go find out the information. They just have this tiny world view and that's all there is.

As to the white savior - I don't think…

I wish but how would you check for that? He's got a job in public service considered to be heroic, he's a member in very good standing with his church. He's adopted two other children that are, by all counts, doing extremely well. They look like perfect prospective parents.

Yes! I wish I could remember her original name because it's driving me nuts.

Oh my God - THIS! That's what I should have done!!!

I wish I were making it up. I'm not. When he asked me why I would be offended I replied that I'm not gay but I damn sure don't like the word 'faggot' either. I couldn't think of anything better to say in that moment because I was so shocked. Even now I'm not sure of what that response should have been given that I was…

Of course he doesn't see himself as racist. Only as a person who doesn't like 'those' kinds of black people. And yes, in his mind, how can he be racist when he has a black child? It's the ulitmate 'but I have black friends!'.

One of my coworkers adopted two brothers from Russia when they were four and seven. The first thing they did upon getting them to America was change their names from something like Alexie and Nicolai to Brad and David. I was horrified. In my heart all I could think of was the last legacy of their own homes and lives…

I stopped the video when she began sobbing about her friends but I decided to go back and finish it. I was stunned at the end where Matt keeps trying to exit stage left and draw the interview to a close and she suddenly bursts out into more tears about her 'happy place'. He tries once more unsuccessfully to get her to…

When she started in about the friends I turned it off. She didn't give a crap about the kitchen staff or the women in the restaurant subjected to her brother's (and her own) racism, sexism and sexual harassment. As far as I'm concerned I saw a quarter fall from her eyes every time she dropped another tear because,…

My kitty - it's a bit blurry because she was busy chasing her tail in circles in the dog's water bowl. She also has a thing for the dustpan which is one of those box kind.

Meaning they don't want a real woman with her own opinions and emotions and feelings. These dolls are safe because they won't debate them, argue with them, question them...say no.

Everyone else seems to get the sads and a creepy feeling looking at that pic of the men holding their doll's hand. All I could think was that these are men who want a woman that doesn't talk back. Who doesn't argue or bitch or complain. What is that old saying..."For every hot woman there is some guy, some where tired…

OMG!!! A dik-dik! I knew it before I read the description what she was - ohhh the memories of being 12 at the zoo and coming up to the Dik-Dik enclosure (which we happened upon not long after we apparently interrupted a coital match made in heaven...aka two tortoises screwing so loudly that their groans could be heard…

None of those photos look professional; everyone of them looks like a catalog ad gone awry with too much photoshop, bad angles and awful posing. That he couldn't even rise to the 'I just bought a Canon Rebel - I'm totally a paid photographer!!!' level is just...really effed up.

I knew that without having to read the details. Unfortunately in my job the knowledge is there. I was hoping that I was wrong and avoiding the details where I could. This just...sucks. No, there's not a big enough word for what this is.

Knowing that she's had a significant brain injury as well as at least one cardiac arrest does not make her prognosis a good one. She's also had 'several' abdominal surgeries and I cannot help but think on why that is - and knowing the answer makes me want to hurt a fellow human like I've never had the desire to do…

I completely agree! We loved the film but we had a few complaints; Crowe's singing, the ridiculous cinematography (seriously, the wide angle shots were just horrible and the dof was such a mess and inconsistent with the story it completely took me out of the film for a few seconds every time the scenes changed) and…

Agreed! Obama needs you on his campaign. Period.
