Or Aveline, she could set them straight, woman to woman :)

LOL I would go with nice, its always nice to know you're not alone. It helps make the shittiness a little bit less shitty, especially when you are having a particularly craptastic day. Reading all the posts about other people in similar situations made me sad remembering all the crap I've dealt with but I also got a…

+5 for doctor of justice and Batman comparison. Pure awesome sauce

Hey, just wanted to say it ok to feel like that. My dad is like that. I remember going to visit him in rehab at the VA only to find out he hadn't been there in a week and no one knew where he was and being scared to death and furious at the same time. I was fifteen at the time. Having a parent battling substance abuse…

OMG lovin' the Clue references as well. This was actually on TV over the weekend. Love the movie and this is my all time favorite quote from it :)

Jason Momoa was also played Conan in its recent iteration. You don't have to tell anyone, just watch it, it should be on Netflix. You will not be disappointed. DIZAM is right :)

seconded!

You officially win the internet for the Clue reference. Thank you for the much needed laugh :)

I like where you're going with this! Job training programs are a great idea I would ass to that increased focus on education and its benefits in getting a better paying job. something also has to be done about day care, though I know it upsets some people it should be offered at high schools. That way young girls who…

That's the thing though, this resident wasn't discussing options. She did list tubal ligation along with less and non-permanent forms of birth control. No, this resident went right tubal ligation as if that was the ONLY acceptable choice and did so in a condescending manner. Unless you think getting your tubes tied is…

OMG this is so full of win, thank you! We need a standing ovation gif over here stat.

Yay! Thank you so much for all the info, I will definitely check these out :)

Yes, definitely agree with you on all points especially on your description of what struggling with faith is about. You have to ask questions, pray about it, go to the library, talk about it and reevaluate every day. Seek and you shall find. Very awesome thank you for expressing this!

I think (and this is my personal view I'm putting forth in the interest of discussion so I can learn from others as well) "intends" may be the wrong word. We have free will, which I take to mean we have choice apart from what God may wish us to do. However, being that He is God, He already knows what choices we are…

Ah! No I haven't read that series before though I've heard good things from many about it though they never mentioned that. I think it may be time to check it out :) Thanks so much for the suggestion!

First thank you so much for replying! And wow, I had no idea that was the case. I know very little about Korean cultural standards of beauty as I have only started getting into their culture mostly though media (music, movies and comics) over the last few years and to me 2NE1 is one of the most talented and beautiful…

Yay! I was hoping someone else in this discussion had read it, though I had a feeling you did as you touched on many of the things he did in the article :) Hopefully others in this discussion thread will check it out too because its not about booing fantasy in general or even Martin but about the lack of POVs…

I'm a huge 2NE1 fan and I had no idea they were considered the ugliest group in K-pop. That truly amazes me because I think every single one of them is gorgeous, I love their unique style and personality. their single Ugly actually made me cry the first time I heard it because of its honesty (the Go Away song and…

I also love the A Song of Ice and Fire series though I do think the idea that just because a fantasy world is based on medieval Europe it can only involve white people is problematic. It is fantasy after all, an author can include POCs to their hearts content. They often just don't choose to do so. Why that is I don't…

I definitely agree with you here and as a huge fantasy fan as well as being WOC its an issue close to my heart. I love A Song of Ice and Fire, I've read all the books written so far and can't wait for the Winds of Winter but what you've stated in this thread Lynx rings very true to me. And saying its based on…
