Sexual predators don't need a functional penis to sexually assault people.

“esp. since the source material doesn’t do it (& if it did, I would whole-heartedly support changing the character to not re-enforce painful stereotypes)”

The Tarzan soundtrack is on my permanent shitlist because its treacly mom song won the Best Song Oscar over Aimee Mann’s “Save Me” from Magnolia. TARZAN SUX.

Criminal / This is Criminal is one of the few true crime podcasts I enjoy, largely because the host Phoebe Judge has a professionally soothing voice like an NPR host.

Sword and Scale is a shitshow, though. The host Mike Boudet is a misogynist bigot who doxxed rape victims and other victims, harasses other podcast hosts, and was literally banned from his own show’s subReddit for doxxing and harassing people.

No one’s said it better than Langston Hughes.

From your lips to God’s ears

Sounds like the death of previous President James Garfield!

Even today, a photo taken in hospital after a pregnancy loss might for the parents feel like the only evidence that their child existed and was loved and mourned. A lot of times, there isn’t a grave to visit afterward. It wouldn’t surprise me if Teigen and Legend also took direct postmortem photos of their son that…

This article left out a highly relevant portion of Cameron’s statement: Cameron said he ONLY recommended the wanton endangerment charge; the grand jury wasn’t given ANY charges to consider for Breonna Taylor’s death.

*Instant money is never free UNLESS you’re already rich, in which case other rich people will fall all over themselves to hand you another billion dollars for a harebrained scheme 

I would bet that the words “But Nicole’s not like *BLACK* Black” have left Paris’s mouth at some point.”

I was wondering that too. If so, early Vin dodged a bullet. 

Shitstain Collins just reminded me to donate to his Democratic opponent, Raphael Warnock. Turn Georgia blue and never give Republicans a moment of peace in their lives: 

I hope the commenters on that 2016 Jezebel article calling Emily Ratajkowski a dicey legal liar just after money, implying she had no right to be upset or taken seriously because she got famous for being naked, and chastising her for not carefully reading the model release form all feel REALLY proud about themselves,…

O Captain, my Captain!

Tiny, superconservative Texas towns also LOVE playing Martina McBride’s “Independence Day” for July 4, which is, uhhh. “Domestic violence escalating to murder/suicide” is not really imagery that I usually associate with “patriotic anthem,” but maybe it should be!

You’re so thoughtfully taking care of your kitty! Would it help if you put the kibble in a food puzzle toy like this one https://www.amazon.com/PetSafe-SlimCat-Meal-Dispensing-Great-Treats/dp/B0018CG40O so that the cat has to work to get kibble out and she can’t gobble it all at once? Could you put wet food in a timed…
