Nah, we already have defacto black gun control. If you can be shot on sight for the mere idea that you might have a gun, then you don’t have access to the 2nd amendment. Working as intended, there.

Oh, I don’t... stand in the way of teens having safe sex. Like I said, very big believer in early education, free access to contraceptives and important vaccines, etc.

I am so conflicted about my kids’ future potential teenage sexcapades.

I was raised by suuuper permissive hippies, so I’m very pro-education, pro-healthy-sex-life, all that jazz.

But I’m also a mega-nerd who didn’t even meet a person I felt was worth having sex with until I was 21! So to me, personally, teenage sex is…

They did it at my school’s homecoming in NC, so I guess it’s just a thing? You paint a crappy old broken car with the opposing team’s colors and beat the hell out of it with hammers. Sometimes you raise charity money by charging students five bucks to get to swing the hammer.

Also, the likelihood that these idiots swept up all the hazardous broken glass and properly cleaned up after themselves is exactly zero.

I’ve got a lot of Bengali relatives so I’m probably hearing more about this than the average American, but it’s really, really fucking dark, guys. I’ve seen way too many pictures of dead babies coming out of the region.

How does the quote go? Having a child is to decide forever to have your heart go walking outside your body.

Going to be interesting when unscrupulous people start realizing they can get rid of minority/poor communities pretty easily and leave easy pickings of blank land for developers to pick up when people can’t afford to rebuild.

Okay folks, it’s STUPID QUESTION TIME.

I understand why people don’t like the “they’re Americans!” messaging, but I don’t think it’s from a place of trying to whitewash PR’s treatment through history or implying that we should only help Americans.

For all the faults in our current relationship with Puerto Rico, we should remember that we HAVE a…

I want to see it when I can, but right now I can’t justify paying a baby sitter just so I can go experience a gritty dystopia for three hours when I could just turn on the news channel instead.

When it comes out on video, I’ll watch.

That was amazing and brave - just imagine how many lives they saved.

If that is true that makes all this even stranger - you are absolutely supposed to seek medical care after using an epi-pen to make sure your condition is stabilized. They’re first aid, not a cure.

Well, she did ask for an epi-pen, and you honestly don’t want one of those injected in you if you are NOT having an allergic reaction. Of course, a panic attack brought on by freaking out about police being called in to deal with you might feel an awful lot like an impending allergy attack too.

All the more reason to…

The air on a plane is so recirculated that no seat may be safe if someone had a true “life-threatening” allergy. From the airline’s point of view, if they put her in, say, first class and flew and she had a reaction mid-flight and died, they’d be sued faster than you can blink.

She was already asking for an epi-pen…

My mom has a literal deadly allergic reaction to mango. You know how often she has been cross-contaminated with mango? One time in ten years! And yet she still carries an epi-pen set wherever she goes, even thought it’s a total pain in the ass and expensive as hell to keep up to date, because you don’t fuck around…

The FAA commented on this incident with a list of dog-free airlines, saying people with a severe or threatening allergy should try to fly those if possible. Of course, that’s easier said than done considering how much some airlines tend to almost have a monopoly on certain routes.

So, how long until we’ve got politicians shooting onstage at faceless targets they “jokingly” call by their opponents’ names?

Yeah, I inherited a tiny black doll (complete with tiny black yarn braids) that literally came from my mom’s cradle, and I have no idea what to do with it.

Heck, our local Y is $100 a month a for a family.
