Thank you for this article. Everytime I hear someone bitch about their period, I wonder if they’ve ever tried skipping it. I’ve skipped mine since I was 18 and moved out of my Catholic household. Fuck periods, fuck religious communities for telling women they have to suffer despite the many medical options. Long live…

Matt’s actor looks soooo much younger in real life - they actually AGED him to play a 17yo. We had a good laugh about that

We kept him alive, so we thought that was the best part. Heh. I liked how the game made us constantly choose between making the “right” decision for Emily’s character and the “fun” decision. Makes it really difficult to get a perfect play through. XD

Heh, that’s exactly what my boyfriend and I did. It’s nice because the female characters aren’t terrible to play, which is different from when I last bothered myself with console games long ago. IMO Emily had better game play than all characters excluding Mike once you get her in the mines far, far away from any…

Does anyone remember “Oor Wullie”? Donald Trump looks REMARKABLY like Wullie in that photo. It’s uncanny.

The cross waving was weird to me, both as an atheist and as someone raised Catholic. Is she a vampire? Are they driving her out of town? Or are they simply threatening her with crucifixion? If the cross-waving is intended to be positive and welcoming, would it not have been better to greet her with palms, like…

I don’t think she’s bad for getting a divorce, but I do think her religious views are incredibly short-sighted and can’t believe she can so brazenly cherry-pick quotes from an old book. And that is why pointing out her inability to realize, “I’ve done things that my religion doesn’t allow and wasn’t prevented to do…

In the documentary Guys and Dolls, a lonely British man leaves signs next to his Real Dolls when he leaves them outside or in his vehicle so people don’t think they’re catatonic and try to rescue them. Perhaps Re-Born doll owners should do the same. >_>

Now I’ll never stop laughing, thanks.

The best thing about this story is that it scares children out of being horrible pieces of shit, just like the German fairy tale where bad children get their fingers cut off with scissors

I agree. I appreciate this gesture, not because the women need absolution, but because this statement DEMANDS that all the other Catholics treat them with more respect. Like, they’re people of worth, they’re not unforgivable baby killer trash, so leave it “to god” rather than throwing insults at these women. Pope…

That’s the word I use instead of “crybaby douchebags” when referring to children. Maybe that’s what he did there? He’s definitely laying down some damage control for when little Billy runs home crying - he doesn’t want a pitchfork mob going after him or his staff.

How do you get a screaming, wiggling little person onto your lap and initiate breast feeding with it while driving, anyway? This is the thing that impressed me.

What really impresses me about Japanese bento items is that Japanese children are expected to eat around the little toys without choking, whereas US children can’t (or won’t) be trusted to eat a Kinderegg properly.

Zen Chicken!!

I should keep tabs on this investigation, it’s so interesting. There are people at my mom’s church who swear UP AND DOWN that they saw something and they’re always telling everyone that they’ve got to see it for themselves.

Idk, people seem to enjoy believing in things they’re told not to. The Vatican is nixing the…

“Elsewhere in the state, Casey Davis—another county clerk who refuses to compromise his religious beliefs, no blood relation to Kim Davis—has started a 400 mile bike ride to spread awareness of Kim Davis’ persecution.”

Trying SO HARD not to lose it at work...”My sister is being PERSECUTED, better GET ON MAH BIKE and…

I would like to think this is a cute prank. The Bison Selfie Gorings, however, are real...Do people miss the part of the ranger’s lecture where s/he explains that most animals actively avoid humans?

Who wants to meet a bear, anyway? You could meet one by punting a bear cub into a creek, I guess. You could also meet a…

My mom did stuff like this too!! She’d go through everything I had: my books, sketchbooks, everything. If she was good enough at computers and if my dad didn’t secretly watch porn, she would have installed spyware/he would have helped her install spyware. So instead of doing that, she would leave Catholic pamphlets…
