When I heard Debbie died, one of the first things I thought after the “OMG I can’t believe this!” is that Carrie would be thinking “There goes Mom stealing my thunder.”

On the other hand, everything about being a teenage male creates unrealistic sexual expectations.

I am of two minds about this:

My favorite parts of the Bible are the administrative stuff.

I hope she paid close attention to the parts in Leviticus and Deuteronomy about dispute resolution practices. HOLY SHIT did the ancient Israelites have poor conflict resolution skills. (On the plus side, it gave Nick Cave some really awesome shit to write lyrics about.)

Unlike many of those getting angry with this there is no way this girl did this without reading most of the bible from cover to cover.

i assumed she wrote dumb shit because why else would she be getting hate. i looked at those pictures and she just pull-quoted bible verses that meant a lot to her. what is wrong with that? she put a fuck ton of work into it too.

All for a relationship that’ll be over by the end of the school year.

Some of the most expensive bibles ever created are covered in gold and jewels. These people need to sit the fuck down.

People are way too fucking involved in other people’s lives. Also, if Jesus is real, I doubt he’d care if a child decorated a bible. In fact, coloring bible versus is like the first 8 years of going to church and you’re sent to the basement to be entertained while real church is happening upstairs.

Imagine the poor boyfriend. “I said I wanted strippers, not scriptures.”

This is what bibles looked like in the Middle Ages when they were still being hand-copied by monk scribes. All decorated with pictures and shit. Stick that in your pipes and smoke it, haters.

Personal beliefs aside, that is an impressively thoughtful and work-intensive gift.

All of this for doing what Christian monks did for centuries?

the greatest story ever colorized...

The problem is largely that homeless services are centralized instead of dispersed, which is how phenomenons like Skid Row came to be. While it is alarming to work at clinics in Skid Row and see the high concentration of homelessness, I am inclined to agree with you. Homelessness in CA isn’t worse, it’s…

You already knew someone who thinks they’re clever was gonna make a comment like this. It’s 75 degrees in LA today. I’m going to enjoy myself.

It’s not about a ghost in the sky. It’s about finding strength, cleaning house, and helping others. If you do those things, however you find them, you can get better. (And I, for one, put my higher power in a couple of pill bottles - do they make me feel better? Yes. Do I fully understand them? No. Do they make it…

Self-medicating with drugs and alcohol is a common way of coping with the isolating symptoms of mental illness. Fisher has spoken at length about how substance abuse can seemingly counter the symptoms of a condition, offering a false sense of normalcy (sometimes even euphoria) when they become too great to cope with…

I’m an atheist in AA who goes to meetings that are principally filled with other atheists and agnostics who have very figurative and unique conceptions of their higher powers not founded in any sort of dogmatic religion. Different programs and different solutions work for different people. I’m happy people no matter…
