...And of course, there’s the fact that as far as they’re concerned, Kavanaugh really does represent each and every one of them. They can’t back down about anything, but they ESPECIALLY cannot back down about something that hits so close to home. They’re terrified, and not without reason.

Yes, drugs! Another excellent example.
I get where you’re coming from, but to me, the low profile of this pump only signifies freedom. It’s supposedly silent, which leads the website to quip, “It’s in stealth mode so you don’t have to be.”
FWIW, the pump actually comes with a pair of “bra adjusters” that work with the standard structure of a nursing bra to give the cups more slack.. I think it’s a pretty clever solution!
“Most of these places require the workers, madams and pimps have to register - if they don’t they are subject to prosecution.”
I disagree in that I think there are perfectly valid reasons to oppose prostitution – one could argue that it’s an intrinsically corrupt business, beyond any hope of salvaging – but even if certain people will never be able to see sex work as anything but degenerate and evil, I think it’s only reasonable to recognize…
“...obviously depends on the age of the ‘child’ and the circumstances involved...”
Co-Parents Must Be Married, Or Else Their Children May Shoplift From the Grocery Store!
Well, hey, I’m curious enough about the lives of internet strangers that I’m happy to listen while you vent about it if that might be therapeutic for you. Tell me, who was this legendary heartbreaker? And when you fantasize about The Prom That Could Have Been, is the montage in your head unfailingly accompanied by…
Steven Universe does a pretty decent job of examining this trope, though it has been a process of gradually heightened confrontation. Long story short, the kid’s magical mother ~gave up her physical form~ to create him with his human father, and so naturally there are some awkward unspoken questions from the get-go…
Wait, so drinking wine in the shower is actually A Thing??? I knew that a glass of wine is part of the whole cliché bubble-bath-with-rose-petals-and-candles-and-maybe-a-book-or-a-vibrator scene, but at least that’s when you’re sitting down to relax. I can’t imagine why one would want to be tipsy while standing on a…
Now playing
As always, let’s please refrain from mocking the actual size of physical penises and stick to mocking the grand displays made by ridiculous losers like Donald Trump in the hopes of convincing the world that they do, in fact, possess physically large penises. And hands.
Indeed, the writing was viciously excellent. The only point on which I disagreed with LBT was her assertion that the piece was “not going to be wise or inspiring,” but “petty and punishing.”
The thing is, misogyny isn’t just simple hatred of women (or of XX chromosomes, which – just a friendly reminder – do not a woman make). It’s a culturally-facilitated coping mechanism in which all general feelings of stress and negativity are converted into a suppressable form of resentment that flies loose when an…

I’m sure there are a few who hate-watch it or who watch it exclusively for the purpose of reporting on perceived violations. Then they take to Twitter, armed with clips and screencaps to rev up the outrage machine. It’s not totally unlike what happened with Roseanne, but in reverse.
Well, The Middle (which was an ABC Show) was perhaps an ideal example of “Red State programming” that never promoted the values that eventually coalesced into Trumpism, but unfortunately that show’s run is over; in retrospect, the characters’ worldviews were perhaps emblematic of Obama-era freedom from the looming…
...But of course, even then, their ~punishment~ has been entirely a matter of business and social consequences. Because for insanely powerful celebrities, their concept of “losing everything” just means an indefinite (entirely-possibly temporary!) halt to their gains and a significant decrease in popularity.
I’m not sure why everyone is assuming this was something Fallon decided on his own. I automatically pictured a scenario where his staffers are like, “Dude, Norm McDonald just said something very unfortunate things about Roseanne and Louis C.K. and #MeToo, and there’s no way interviewing him now is going to be a good…
