It was more about her parents than her. They were (probably still are) absolutely knee-jerk reactionaries. This girl ended up with all kinds of issues, like a prescription pill addiction. Which they blamed on my daughter, who didn’t take medication. It was baffling. This young woman remains, to this day, one of those…
Yes, I do get what you’re saying. And this was a friend who thought she may be pregnant. We talked about resources available but I denied her request to take her to the doctor. No way was I stepping into that. I’m all for giving sound, factual info to anyone!
“I ride a bus, mom.”
I truly take this as an incredible compliment. Thanks!
This was a long time ago, but I recall getting out the encyclopedia first because it was all I had. I drew pictures of inside the female body—uterus and fallopian tubes. I also found the book, “What’s Happening to Me?” which is really meant for adolescents (she was in FIRST GRADE) but she read it all and thought it…
Maybe not! I was super honest to the point of being clinical with Hippie Chick (frequent Jez commenter, now a grown-ass woman). From the first moment she asked me a question about sex and bodies, we had books and charts and information, at a pace she could handle. I knew it was working when she came home from middle…
One very happy and satisfied lady here in a long-term marriage. I just asked my husband, whom I adore and desire, whether we should incorporate lingerie. He said, “Why? It just gets in the way.”
And your ballot is mailed. No one is forcing you to mail it back or drop it at a ballot pick-up location. I live in Oregon and voting by mail is the absolute best.
The calcified, cynical part of me wonders whether the state laws requiring abortion docs to have privileges at a hospital are tied to this?? If you have a clinic run by doctors and not priests, women will get the health care they need. So, get rid of the clinics! I shouldn’t be shocked but somehow I am.
I think you missed the part where “bitches be crazy.” Also, fuck this guy.
Yes, as an attorney, this is my absolute favorite from all his shit-soaked opinions. Why throw away a perfectly good conviction? FACTUAL innocence should be no impediment to execution. He probably wanted to do it himself (while he jizzed himself simultaneously).
THERE ARE LITERALLY DOZENS OF US
Native Austinite here. I lived in Austin until I was 37, and moved away 11 years ago to the beautiful Pacific Northwest. The Austin of my youth was a lovely and wonderful place. HOWEVER. Institutionalized racism was definitely alive and well. My high school mascot was Johnny Reb and we had a big confederate flag…
Pickens can eat all the dicks in the world. Fuck him and all the big cigar alums who think they can be kingmakers. Full disclosure: Longhorn here who loves me some Charlie Strong. So, also, in addition, Red McCombs can share all that dick-eating with Pickens.
And let’s be sure to talk about how Jay was very likely enticed into this situation by his own criminal activity (getting those sweet, private deals with the DA), plus that mysterious fucking Crimestoppers nonsense that likely landed Jay a motorcycle he wanted! The prosecutors failed to disclose so much information.…
This is an interesting topic that has all kinds of sociological implications. Like, trust and self-confidence issues, and generation-gap issues. I’m about to turn 50, although no one can force me to act like it. I’m a lady lawyer who has a variety of clients (all court-appointed); adult and kids alike. With my…

Well. The short answer is yes, if you move to a state where it’s legal. I’m a lawyer. And I live in a state where weed is legal. And I’m considering doing that for a living instead. So you may be onto something.
Oh, wow, that may be a bit too generous! There are people out there healing cancer and things like that who perhaps deserve to be called an angel. My job is hard, I hate it sometimes, but other times I love it. When I can help someone, then I feel rewarded. There are many failures, though. I don’t control what choices…
