Children are definitely property in his worldview. It match conservative theology to a T.

Wrong. He will fall in love with me and we’ll get married for real.

at this point in my life, the thing I love most about this, and i love Keanu and I’m psyched that Winona has a romantic lead, is that Winona is only 7 years younger than Keanu and not 20.

Am I missing a style guide or is Weinstein’s PR responses using both victims first names in an effort to mock and minimize them?

But if you focus less on the mother and more on the child, what difference does it make? Are we so intent on punishing people to the fullest that we’ll sacrifice a baby’s well being, knowing that the detrimental effects of premature separation are long-lasting? Denying infants the ability to stay with their mothers…

As someone who spent some time in jail (though not prison), I can tell you how deeply the loss of their children scars these women. I heard stories of forced parental terminations, of relapsing into drugs when their kids are taken because they feel there’s no hope. Women passed around photos of their babies that were…

Its designed to be cruel and insane. Not only is prison designed to replace slavery, it’s also designed to be severe punishment. Other nations that use their prison systems as punishment often have far shorter prison times - although they are also far more destructive, or they’re a dictatorship that often kills its…

I don’t understand that thinking at all. You scratch the surface of a Mike Pence or a Tony Perkins, and you’ll get a Commander.

You would pay tax on your rewards, like everything else.

He never could have made that leap if it hadn’t been for two things: 1) being able to buy income-adjusted health insurance on our state’s marketplace; 2) us getting married and knowing that my salary could cover the…

Something I don’t often see people take into account is that a UBI would free people to take more risks. I’m much more likely to quit my job and start a new business if I know I have a safety net to catch me in case the business fails horribly. A UBI also means I don’t have to worry about paying myself when starting a…

On the plane I fly when a major malfunction occurs we disengage the autopilot, regain control of the aircraft run any drills and then and only then do we consider engaging the autopilot again.

I have nothing but admiration for the way Stormy Daniels has comported herself during all this. She’s been articulate and dignified.

That last sentence was a doozy. The rest of the comment seemed well-intentioned if mistaken, but it finished with a whole lot of scorn and derision.

Whole lot of nope. Survivors of trafficking don’t want this. It’s a horrible bill that only people who either hate sex workers or don’t understand how trafficking works would support. https://survivorsagainstsesta.org/

She was on an episode of “The Cosby Show” called “Eat, Drink and Be Wary.”

OMG the grandstanding you must witness.

A family of candy asses.

Does anyone else feel like this is a direct reaction to the popular/positive news stories about the unveiling of the Obama portraits? Like, Old Donny is so pissed that Obama made headlined during his precious presidency that he’s nipping all portraiture in the butt just to make sure they can’t paint anymore cool pics…

I seriously want to thank you for this attitude - we need more of it.. especially around places like jezebel and the root.
