Not to mention affordable health care so even if there is a fix, the mom can actually afford to get it. Or if the child ends up disabled they can have easy access to the kind of care they need to have a happy fulfilling life. It's like an extension of Eve's punishment; not only must labor be painful but childcare must…

Yours might have been embarrassing but some of our middle school portraits were both haunting and majestic, like the mighty steeds that once roamed the open prairies.

Hmmm. John Stewart is Monsieur's favorite Green Lantern. So if this were to happen, I'd probably have to go see it... and that would be horrible.

If I were a Special Ops soldier/marine/etc, I'd be really offended by how low my superiors' opinions are of my fortitude.

How is it that Matt Lauer is still allowed to even talk to people at this point? Who keeps approving this? I demand an explanation.

It's funny how many people know that line but would never be able to make it through that movie.

The thing (the frightening, frightening) thing about this guy is that he is not doing this for cynical reasons or for 'the votes.' He is appallingly in earnest. He is a TRUE BELIEVER. And as such he will not rest until all Virginians catch a case of his brand of fundamentalism as well. I don't think it's going to…

WORD. It's like these people don't follow what is going on in the world around them.

Oh, Republicans. In Republican-land, based on their mores and the laws, you stick your dick in someone's mouth and you're a criminal. But if you shoot most people, you're a-okay.

The party of "small" government is at it again...

Law and Order: Crimes Against Nature... most boring franchise yet!

ONE OF US, ONE OF US.

I had such a crush on a girl in my geology class who had seriously bushy, dark armpit hair. She was athletic and smart and beautiful. She was completely out of my league, except for the whole shoulder roots thing. Sitting behind her in class, going on field trips etc, I quickly internalized what I intellectually knew:…

We are a weird species. How is it that we're not attracted to ourselves in our natural state?

Is it supposed to be hair? I sorta thought it was macaroni noodles..........

Second post because I finally read the whole article...

That is horrifying. You know who is allowed to ask me to shave? My husband. And even then, I may not do it, and there will be hell to pay if he asks the wrong way. For a boss to even mention your body hair is so far over the personal-boundaries line that I am appalled on your behalf.

Yes, my hope is that now we can never speak of this again.

I kind of want this as the new wallpaper in my bathroom. I am a sick sick puppy sometimes.

I hate terms like monster. He's not a monster, that makes him sound like something otherworldly or not human. He is a terrible human being who shows us some of the worst of what people can be (or, depending on your perspective, what can happen with viciously misguided youth in a fucked up world). Call him what he…
