I have a feeling there’s more to this story....

Truth.

This is really awesome.

Just had to say I’m currently wearing a shirt that says all the cats with floating cat heads.

You know. This is a good idea. ( I mean clearly you know, I’m just surprised more folks don’t do this as a side thing).

“You see this is why we can’t let immigrants into this country. Many Mexicans and those from South American countries have ties to drug lords. It’s simply a fact of life. And these immigrants use their family connections to smuggle drugs across our borders! These family members protect them as they flood our cities…

“Women’s rights became important to me after I had a daughter.”

I took sewing in junior high but I haven’t used that to skill since and have no intention to. It’s a fun hobby for some, I’m sure, but I’d rather hire someone if I need alterations. Sewing would not be cost effective for me. Cooking I learned just fine outside of school, though a few classes on basic culinary…

Bush began supporting more lenient sentences for drug users after Noelle briefly went to jail.

My daughter! She told the woman who used to clean for my elderly aunt, as she was making meatballs “That is not how you do it, you need to make a panade!”. She is 9, but I am raising her to be a food snob.

WHY IS THIS WOMAN WAGING WAR ON CHRISTMAS?!?!?!?!?!?!

Kara is correct:

Hugs.

Iman, her and David Bowie’s teenage daughter, his son Duncan... I want to hugh them all. Their loss in the gravest. Everyone else still has his artistic legacy, which is phenomenal and will never die. They’ve lost David Jones. David Bowie will never really die.

The judge gave her an extension to the time she has to provide the evidence. This is just the judge telling Duggar and his lawyers to “shut up, you’ll get it when you get it”.

Yeah, I’m going totally hijack this for David Bowie.

Hang in there. That part about how calm you were and how strongly you felt about not getting married again suggests to me that you have a deep well of strength and the will to get through this. Sending you hugs and good thoughts and wishing for a happy life for you and your daughter.

My half-assed opinion on this is that the Catholic Church is as successful as it is partly because it has always allowed (but strictly controlled) avenues for people to express certain differences. Women who didn’t fit the mold could be nuns rather than getting married. Gay men could become priests. Conquered peoples…

It’s so interesting to read that many female saints entered religious life to avoid the constraints of domestic life given the Church’s role in keeping women out of public life.
