This really isn’t helpful rhetoric. The country isn’t a shithole. It was in better shape before this buffoon was elected. Hate crimes have gone up and racism is far more out in the open. This “alt right” Nazi nonsense should be shamefully hiding underground, not having members featured on mainstream news programs or…

should we force parents to vaccinate their child because we inherently know that their reasoning is nonsense?

The left opposes being so uncomfortable with gay people that you want to see them be psychologically tortured until they’ve been convinced they’re not gay anymore because that is Bad, Actually.

We’re one SCOTUS seat away from this sort of retrograde bullshit right here in the good old USofA. Land of the Free (if you’re a cis white male) and home of the brave (if you’ve got a gun)

My mother was almost 41 when she had me, and she told me that had I tested positive for Down Syndrome she would have aborted, which is a sentiment I fully support. One of my mother’s closest childhood friends has a daughter with it who is severely handicapped and essentially needs 24/7 care. She is close to 40 and…

I would keep a baby with Down syndrome, but I definitely don’t judge anyone who makes a different choice. There are other health risks beyond developmental issues. Heart conditions are especially common. The expense of lifelong care is huge. I think you can appreciate and love the contribution of people with Down…

My nephew is Downs. When I got pregnant a few years later you bet your ass I got tested, and would have aborted too. 30 plus years later - he is low on the spectrum and VERY difficult. So many health issues, in pain a lot because of them, he’s given to violent rages, police have been called many times. Parents will…

NOPE. This kiddo is cute as heck, but we would have done the exact same thing. We did alllll the optional testing when I was pregnant and would have terminated depending on the results. And I work with children with disabilities. There are certainly worse conditions that we can’t test for and we can’t determine if…

It would be hypocritical if society was fair and supportive of parents so that you could give a baby all they need no matter what that is. However, since every family is essentially on their own, we can be grateful that some parents, like those of this cutie, are able to make it work while facing up to our own reality.

Spain was neutral in WWI, so they were just about the only ones who would publish news when bad stuff happened (like a global pandemic so bad they had to cancel the war). Since Spanish newspapers were the first, and for some time the only, sources to cover the outbreak it was named the Spanish Flu.

That being said, she quickly added, “If you’ve already got the flu, I’m gonna pray for you right now ... flu, I bind you off of the people in the name of Jesus. Jesus himself gave us the flu shot.”

This times a billion. Republicans LOVE when the government helps them out. They only hate when poor people and people of color get anything.

This has little to do with the geese and all to do with the tax bill. I am a residential tax assessor and it is always the rich who dispute their tax bill and almost never the disadvantaged who deserve it most. He is likely trying go for a functional obsolescence deduction or the like. You would not believe the crazy…

No other shoe is dropping. This guy has been complaining since 2016. I don’t see why a business he doesn’t own would owe him a job,so this latest frivolous lawsuit isn’t going anywhere either. He hasn’t been convicted, that comedy club isn’t a court of law but if multiple allegations of behavior they don’t want to put…

I’m going to try to get my town to pay for the water damage my shoes suffer whenever I walk along the beach during high tide. It’s simply unacceptable!

Because for republicans (you know he is), wanting the government to solve your problems is only bad when someone else does it?

Having spent like 7 years at the UCB, I can tell you that Aaron Glaser is in fact a known scumbag (arrogant, pompous, and, as stated here, a dude whose name was floated around in NY comedy circles —women warning other women—for a very long time before he ever got reported.) Also, at least one rather detailed report…

Why do people feel so confident comparing their scenarios to lynching recently? A local columnist said the Bundy Trial was “modern day lynching” and now lawyers seem to think its fine. Sorry, but lynching doesn’t end with any legal recourse, its inherently ultralegal. And we’ve had lynching in this country up until…

Um why exactly would property maintenance be the towns responsibility. They aren’t town owned geese. Do they remove the snow nature puts there in the winter too?

Not even. Who would remember UCB had banned anyone, much less look up who it was, if this troll moved on?
