JFC. So he killed four people and likely assaulted or was about to assault someone? This guy and his family should be punished by marooning them on a deserted island together. Remove the threat from society and make them marinate alone in their awfulness.

This was the case with some very close friends of mine. Nearly 2 decades together. I smelled trouble probably six years before their split but the husband felt blindsided. My only major breakup played out like this too. I think he knew things weren’t good but he just took for granted that I wouldn’t leave. I’m sure…

If I were ever on a roller derby team my name would be The Barefoot Cuntessa.

But 16-26 is prime date raping time. How is he supposed to take part in frat life? Is he just supposed to postpone his 21st birthday? Can he at least have bloody marys at the club on Sundays? This kid was going to suffer.

His face is shrinking in shame.

I really like sweetapolita’s recipe and instructions for Swiss meringue buttercream. Very detailed, including photos of each step which is really helpful if it’s your first go at it.

I’m positive you would 😘

Jinni, I remember the same reports that came out directly afterwards. The people that disputed this first sounded a bit crackpot-y and seemed perhaps too excited about stateside terrorism. But then I read that the original witness was mistaken, his ex partner was not Mateen, and there is no evidence he was a closeted…

Me too. Someone else commented with links of people who got a fraction of the time for crimes that are much worse. Fucking disgusting. For trying to vote! As herself, in her state, in her district. She wasn’t impersonating anybody, she didn’t try to steal someone’s vote, she went in in good faith and made a mistake.…

FUUUUUUUUCK EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great point! I hadn’t even thought of that. This story is so infuriating. Do you know how many wealthy people/snowbird types/anyone who has multiple residences in multiple states fuck up and technically commit voter fraud? Are those people getting 5 years in prison? Is Steve Bannon going to get five years in the clink…

ATTEMPTED to vote. ATTEMPTED. The system worked and her vote wasn’t counted. She did not vote in the election and she gets five years for trying to do her civic duty. Jesus Christ. I hope she can appeal, though Texas being Texas this could be a waste of time and money. This poor woman. I don’t mean to be fatalistic,…

Generally, that’s what the loser does for a year or two. Same with out going presidents. You let the victor establish themself for the greater good and ease of transition. I’m positive that sort of social grace is dead and gone, and so HRC’s book and comments about Comey, Russia, Sanders et al will seem tame in…

They’re gunning for Jen and Jen.

I have long advocated for this to be the slant when we teach kids about sex. After we get through what continuous consent means, we tell them that if you don’t use contraception that means that you are actively trying to conceive.

Teach me your witchy ways.

Hands only though. Could you imagine doing mouth to mouth on that guy???

Probably the most beneficial to the most amount of people in a school shooting tipe of situation is first aid and how to recognize and treat shock. Tourniquets, pressure on wounds, keeping wounds above the heart if possible, and keeping people in shock warm and horizontal when possible are great. Tourniquets are…

I remember that one, and it isn’t just that it doesn’t often work but that the long term quality of life is generally very low. I’m not sure if they accounted for age or other health factors though.

People in New York aren’t rude unless you do something stupid that fucks up life for everyone else. They just aren’t shy about telling you when you’re being an idiot. Don’t throw a wrench in the machinery and you’ll be fine. I go to New York almost every year and I’ve never experienced anyone being rude to me.
