In the case of Trump-Kushner it’s throwing someone else’s money at the problem and taking your cut off the top.

I debated whether to acknowledge your post or not, so here goes. I know I’m about to be crushed by SECULAR LOGIC AND SCIENCE! but have mercy on me! Also, probably won’t be debating you on this because I don’t really care how you came to your conclusions.

“ it is also okay for people to have a religion, it’s okay for them to incorporate their religion into their progressivism”

Even better, he gets to be uber-superior because ITZ ABOUT GOD LULZ, and he’s way too sophisticated for that nonsense.  

You misunderstand. I’m not arguing the theology. There is a region called the Holy Land. It includes Jerusalem, most of modern Israel, and bits of a few other places.

It’s more fun to reduce huge problems down to a single one that one can then smugly comment on in a “Why can’t you be logical like ME?” way.

I don’t get the impression that she’s trying to say that this isn’t Christian God’s fault and that she’s trying to defend religion. I don’t know anything about her personal faith or what she’s getting at in her reply (yet, as I’m writing this no reply yet)

There was a popular media personality in Phoenix, Bill Heywood who with his wife did just the same thing. I know that Alice knew him. Bill and his wife were extremely close. They checked into a hotel that had a foyer that led into the bedroom with a door inside the exterior door. They posted a note on the inner door…

She’s 61?  She looks amazing.  (This is not the time to snark “she’s had work done”.  I dun care.  She looks good.)

It's incredibly narcissistic for him to declare his wife can't live without him. She's ten years his junior, I doubt she'll be hip to follow him immediately into the great beyond.

I love almost everything about Alice Cooper, but I do hope this is something they wouldn't really do. Their kids don't need to lose them both at the same time, at the very least.

This isn’t catastrophic or anything, but I vacationed solo in Arizona this spring, hoping that a week hiking and doing yoga in Sedona would relieve the stress of my hellish job. WELL, I got there and it was cold (like high of 45 cold) and rainy, and stayed that way for the first three days. Turns out I arrived in the…

I was hoping for something terrible in regards to your pee bags, like someone was outside and you smacked them in the head with one. 

The first summer after my husband and I married, we went on a vacation with his extended family. He has two sisters and a brother, and one of his sisters in particular - I’ll call her Mary - can be very bossy and judgmental. I was young and nervous about making a good impression with the family, especially her, since…

I am hoping against hope that farther down in this thread is a woman posting her story about how when she was a tween she got her first period in the dark woods while on vacation with someone else’s family, and then I hope you both lock eyes and say “it’s you!” and then you get together over international coffee and…

So, this is, like, not a super fun story. Maybe trigger warnings?

I was meeting my best friend in Istanbul a few years ago, arriving two nights before she did. I had booked the cutest little hotel near the Blue Mosque and was just super excited about the whole thing. When I arrived at the hotel, the very cute clerk…

Portland, Oregon with my ex. We were supposed to go just the two of us (well, originally I was going to go by myself but he asked to come and got me really excited about a fun trip together) but he offered a friend a ride up kinda last minute and she spent most of the trip hanging out with him. We fought the whole…

My dad’s family had been going to this rinky-dink set of cabins in rural Wisconsin for generations. By the time I was a ‘tween in the 90s, they’d at least been retrofitted with electricity, but you still had to use an outhouse. The nearby lake was great, but my fond summertime memories of bonfires, tubing, and jumping…

My family once decided to drive almost 2.500 miles from Fairbanks, Alaska to a small town in Eastern Washington. We were going to my uncle’s wedding. Taking advantage of the fact the whole family was getting together, there was an intervention planned the day before for another uncle who was an alcoholic. On one hand…

omg jezebel has been DRAGGING me with these contests!!!
