People do not respond to trolls or the grey policy is meaningless!

So you're saying they're too young to choose an abortion, but the perfect age to take on the life-long responsibility of being a parent?

because if they are a child, pregnant and their parents decide 'nope you can't have an abortion' it means they're now going to be a mother. How is that the right decision? She can't even vote and somehow she's ok to be a mother? Plus the child has to live with her parents decision for the rest of her life, her parents…

The short answer is yes. Once the door of "conscience clauses" is kicked open, the equal protection clause of the Constitution takes over.

because most, if not all abortions that happen after 20 weeks are because fetal abnormalities or life of the mother anyway. Women just don't wake up at 20 weeks and are like 'fuck being pregnant anymore' and get an abortion. At 20 weeks the pregnancy is a wanted one. Putting limits on this time frame makes a very…

We are now seeing the direct consequences of the 2014 elections. With a Republican in the Speaker's seat in our House of Representatives, New Mexicans must now face these regressive policies.

But hey, both parties are equally bad, all politicians are equally bad, it's a total concindence that things get especially shitty whenever Republicans are in charge!

Ward Churchill this dude.

What? There certainly are all-male colleges. There's Hampden-Syndey like FieryAntidote mentions, Morehouse in Atlanta, and St. John's in Minnesota. Those are just three that I could think of off the top of my head.

You...uh...how old are you?

I am really enjoying the authenticity of these articles. So many times when reading a beauty article my eyes glaze over mid-read because I know I don't have the time/patience/fine motor skills to do whatever they're trying to sell me.

You guys see any Axe body spray on this list? No? Well then, STOP FUCKING BATHING YOURSELF IN IT BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE HOUSE!

I weep at the perfection of that liner.

We don't teach history to help you get a job, we teach history because without it people grow up to be ignorant jerks who deny that things like slavery and the Holocaust ever happened.

I was also raised by a single mother and have trouble with relationships, not just romantic. I had it drilled into me I needed to be as independent as possible because at some point, everyone will fuck you over. It makes it really hard to trust people, even in little ways.

The fact that you can't see the connection between math (i.e. solving for variables and graphing functions) and taxes, budgeting, and car ownership is a sign of a more serious flaw in the education system.

when in doubt, bang out a $5.

I wasn't taught very many concrete financial skills at all. My single mom would say platitudes like "Save your money!" and "Budget your money!" to me all the time, but didn't really enforce or test me on what she hoped I'd learn. She herself was notoriously bad with money and the things I did learn were lessons about…

How to handle repeated failure. How to be content with doing "alright", not "outstanding" in life. How to be gentle with myself.
