Shut. Up.

Republic Jews. They make up a teeny, tiny portion of the Jewish population and they donate a LOT of money.

Hey, potato chips count as a serving of vegetables! https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2011/11/ketchup-is-a-vegetable-again/248538/

I find this, “they weren’t allowed to pick her up, to hold her or hug her to try to calm her. As a rule, staff aren’t allowed to touch the children there, she said,” to be one of the most disturbing parts. Children need to be touched, held and comforted in order to develop proper, healthy attachment styles. This is…

Why the constant reporting on what Meghan McCain says? She’s not a spokesperson for the right? She’s a token member of the View and nobody listens to her, including the audience.

It’s a JOKE. Moreover, private companies are often indistinguishable from the owners. So Trump use the legal fiction of a corporation to shield him from liability and leave someone else holding the bag. Yet another instance of his being a dick and a coward who is particularly skilled at fucking people over, especially…

Yes, as in “alleged to have done so.” Learn the definitions of words, you racist twit.

Yes and no. A collaborative relationship with any treater is the ideal. A doctor who takes this approach as standard and presents a range of options with pros and cons of each, and has a meaningful discussion and a populations of people taught that they should seek out this form of care. This is clearly too nuanced…

If that’s the point, that’s what it should target: present a message that portray this very situation. Show the patient in the doctor’s office asking about alternatives to opioids. Most people don’t question their doctors, especially when it comes to the extreme situations that would necessitate such extreme…

How about just requiring that guns have finger-print-recognizing tech that won’t fire without your fingerprint on the trigger. Responsible gun owner - fine. Only he can use it. As it should be. Why would any gun owner want a criminal, whether he’s an active threat, a robber, or downstream on the black market, to be…

Dude, seriously? Stricter gun laws - not even prohibiting or removing guns - drastically reduces gun-related injuries and deaths. For fuck’s sake, prohibition works.

Also, I remember when Bertucci’s was “fancy.” It was the hot family spot in Salem.

They’re only closing the central and western Ma locations for now. I’ve got a friend who works there as his recovery job, and it’s staying put.

OMG the giant Santarpio’s lettering over East Boston fills me with glee. The legitimately have the best pizza, the angriest waitress staff, and their wine options are “red or white.”

Thank you!

It’s changed. Somerville is pretty awesome, albeit expensive, these days.

I recently completed a treatment program at McLean Hospital in Massachusetts for dependence on Valium. It was life-changing. They are the number one mental health hospital in the country and arguably in the world. They have spectacular programs which don’t accept insurance directly (I stayed at Fernside, a former…

Try looking up the definition of rape under federal and nearly every state law (apparently CA is an exception). It requires violence or the threat of violence here.

I didn’t realize the guy who married Jennifer Aniston was such a dick.

It’s an ANALOGY. Extreme financial constraints are put on people for exercising constitutional rights.
