I had a family member get reaaaally into a detox smoothie diet after someone gave them a book on it.

Thank goodness they are savy enough to keep the artist’s name a secret. But can you imagine how awful it would be to win a high school art contest, and find out your name couldn’t be displayed with the art for security concerns?

Posting sad faces in response to this seems too flippant, but I can’t seem to find words.

Is that what caused all the pitting on that tire? I thought I’ve let my tires get bad before, (went nearly bald before I could afford new ones once) but I’d be scared to drive with that wheel! It looks like it could disintegrate at any second.

This is completely intentional. Notice they made a public statement that they were deported because he (or even just a family member) got into college.

We’ve had several asshole roosters and two gentleman roosters. The good ones really are awesome. If you give a piece of bread to a gentleman rooster, he’ll run over to the ladies and drop it in front of them with pleased little clucks of pride.

Sure, but it can really fucking hurt! Wasps can’t “hurt” me or my family permanently since no one is allergic, but you can bet I clear out any wasp nest on my house.

I literally grew up with a six foot black snake living in our attic and walls. Whenever we found one of his skins, we’d hang it on our mantelpiece. My family took a wild snake to the vet once!

That being said, I do not blame this old woman at all. Copperheads are not endangered, mildly aggressive, and could kill…

Didn’t the woman in question recently go on record that she lied about him?

This is a very compelling and helpful idea!

Yes! I don’t have a test to prove it or anything, but my kids had the symptoms just before I woke up one day unable to get out of bed and with joints that were doubled in size. Thank goodness for prednisone, even if weaning off the stuff sucks.

I swear they throw anyone who has had a baby on a timer. As soon as my kids reached toddlerhood, I had a huge uptick in pregnancy/baby ads. They just assume everyone who has spawned might do so again.

The complete lack of realistic privacy is why we should all be freaked out by any threat to pre-existing conditions protections.

Uh, I just reread my comment and Fuck, I just realized it was a total “But whaaat about white people” comment and I am so sorry. I should really, really know better. I have no excuse, I was just musing on women and police and was totally, stupidly thoughtless about what I was saying. Sorry, everybody, I will try to…

Yep, absolutely. And I’ll bet violence faced by WOC intimate partners of police is probably exponentially worse and far far less likely to see justice as well.

This article does apply to unrelated women shot in the course of duty, but not, I suspect, entirely apply to intimate partners of policemen who happen to go “missing.”

Kid aren’t allowed outside on their own that much these days. You’ve got a generation of parents who were kids for the great Satanic Panic in the 80's so we absorbed the general low level unconscious terror that a child out of direct supervision are going to be snatched up by murderers and rapists from the bushes.…

This is your legacy, McCAin. Your final great work. Thousands dead and millions suffering.

At the beginning of the summer, I was incredibly excited that the scouts seemed to be moving towards a kinder stance and counting down the days until my five year old son could join. I have loved scouting since I was five years old myself, lugging my grandmother’s and mother’s Girl Scout books around in the woods. I…

I assume they couldn’t get any other actor to touch that with a ten foot pole.
