Uh why? Explain to me how pulling welfare, which provides basic resources like food and shelter, is a good way to address a problem with truancy?

Yes that is exactly what I was saying.

People are idiots. There's no other way to explain our society.

Most people are easily mislead morons: News at 11

"... powered by the cheap and ungenerous idea that snark is a form of deeper wisdom or understanding"

Ugh. This piece was so many levels of horrid I don't even know where to start.

I went to a top tier school, though it was no Ivy. I met Mr.Soup when we were both in the same college. I do think I had an easier time finding someone appropriate for me in college than I would have later, but that has nothing to do with how smart people at my school were versus how smart the people I met after…

Correction:

No, no you don't understand, laws exist to protect the freedom of people. Women are not people, they are lumps of flesh that produce people.

Because remember ladies, you are not a person you are a person incubator.

Is it because not every embryo from the procedure gets used?

I'll take misogynistic asshats for $800, Alex.

I'm not interested in giving out gold stars for every asshole who after decades comes to the great revelation that all people are equally deserving of rights and protection under the law.

The Republican Party in a nutshell:

You're not alone. The first thing I thought when I read the title was "... How much risk?"

I agree to an extent, but as a woman and a feminist I'm always much more surprised when I see a man (especially a cis, straight man) "get it." I think that's why we wind up giving it more attention.

OK I'll admit, I'm totally the person who wants to pet random dogs on the street. My apartment doesn't allow pets which leaves me in animal withdrawal, but who the hell doesn't ask before petting a random dog?

No. A psychologically stable person is capable of exercising rational judgment to determine whether or not to follow medical advice. Example: A Jehovah Witness may refuse a blood transfusion for religious reasons, while being fully aware of the risks their decision poses. It may not be a medically advisable decision,…

People with mental illness sometimes have their judgment impaired to the point where they are not capable of acting rationally on their own behalf. The same is not true of pregnant women.

I have a couple of cans of soup, bottled water, candles, flashlights and batteries stored in the back of a closet. I live in a studio apartment. That's as prepared as 450 sq feet will allow me to get.
