The best thing about this article?

"(Also, how is "you came in that thing..." UNintentionally funny?)"

Wait. Wait. No, "At that speed are you sure you'll be able to pull out in time?"

Dinosaur tails especially. That being said...adorable painting.

You're absolutely right - I was referring to the flexibility of the adorable baby dinosaurs tail in the painting.

I'm saying that the Olympics effectively preventing her from competing is equally if not more problematic.

Good point.

But in those cases athletes are being exploited/endangered and the restrictions affect the athlete's ability to compete, either for the better or worse. To tell an Olympic athlete who is otherwise fit to compete and willing to compete wearing a hijab that she is not allowed to because fuck her country doesn't strike

Oh wow.

The bigger scarier ones still did when they grew up, but...I dunno, feathers can still be menacing.

And by not allowing them to wear hijabs, the Olympic committee would be facilitating it.

By not, we effectively exclude Saudi female athletes, who are being allowed to participate for the first time.

"Abandoned" church. I think they do theater performances here, too.

Oh. My God. That's so good.

So you'd rather just have her not compete? Or compete without a hijab and go back to a home where everything is much worse for her?

"It doesn't necessarily mean that she wouldn't choose to wear a pink mohawk either, and is about as irrelevant."

"In The Dark Night Rises, when the League of Shadows returns to the pit to break out Bane, he's basically lounging around with dirty bandages covering his mouth. So, it's not like he 'needs' the mask to eat and breath."

Which doesn't necessarily mean she would choose not to otherwise.

Wait...Galactica 1980 had skinjobs in it?

Sorry, I should have said flipped it across the X axis. Switched left and right. Mirror. Goddammit.
