Robert Kardashian Sr. was one of OJ’s attorneys. He and OJ were very good friends. Kris and Nicole Brown Simpson were besties. Robert Sr.’s decision to defend OJ was one of the reason Kris left.

This is something I struggle with in Baltimore. I live at a busy intersection with a lot of bus and foot traffic. I hear a lot of arguments, but only once in four years saw one get physical. I hesitate to a call he cops because of the very real possibility that the cops will shoot or otherwise cause serious…

Another note on flavored condoms - they are for oral sex only. Do not use them for vaginal penetration. The flavorings can cause yeast infections.

Lots of families in the South use families names over several generations, regardless of financial status, so being a IVth doesn’t really denote socioeconomic status. He was in first class (actually business class) because his mom is a Delta employee- employees and their families get international business class seats…

This is one of my biggest concern when it comes to parenting my hypothetical future children - I know I should not laugh at behavior like this, but I can’t help it.

That was possibly due to something you all ate, but not necessarily the last thing you ate. As a tour group, you probably all ate similar food over several days - if everyone got sick on Monday morning, Saturday’s breakfast is as likely the cause as Sunday’s dinner. It’s also very likely that you all had norovirus -…

From a life of experience with motion sickness - it isn’t always as simple as look outside. Looking out the side windows will make me (and many others) motion sick. I need to look forward, through the windshield, to avoid getting sick. Looking through the side window is as bad as reading.

Yes. Raccoons will eat anything that is edible and accessible.

I believe that’s called a trans-magical family.

I don’t disagree - genetic testing definitely shows European and African ancestry. Modern DNA tests are reasonably good at identifying broad ancestry patterns. They can’t really say when and where certain ancestry entered an individual’s family tree. DNA testing can’t say for sure that specific members of the Lumbee…

Probably not. Genetic testing could show Northern European heritage among a tribe, so tests would (maybe) show that Lumbee Indians have some English or Northern European ancestry, but can’t really tell when/where it entered the family tree. There’s also some new archeological evidence that suggests the list colonists…

Yeah, but it’s still held up as the populat go-to explanation. Recent archeological finding suggest the lost colonists ended up near Elizabeth City, possible assimilating with a different native community.

The Lumbee are very much a real tribe. They are recognized as such by state law. They do not have federal recognition due to a whole lot of institutional racism.

I read a similar article a few months ago that had an important caveat - some states prohibit tattoo parlors from piercing anyone younger than 18.

I suspect either pronunciation works. As the kid grows and develops a gender identity, s/he can choose the more traditionally masculine or feminine pronunciation.

The next group of colonists found the word “croatoan” carved on a tree. It may have been a reference to a nearby tribe or a nearby island. The prevailing theory is that the original colonists assimilated with a local tribe, and the prevalence of blue eyes among Lumbee Indians is held up of evidence.

Same here. I need to lose some weight first, but at my lightest I was 34G (currently 36H, ugh). I’m in my mid-30's, and just staring to feel neck/shoulder pain from them. I always thought I would wait until I have kids, but don’t think I can wait for that anymore.

And it’s pronounced sear.

The Holocaust study makes a lot of sense - if you learn to follow rules for the sake of following rules, then there’s no framework for questioning bad rules. If you learn to follow rules to protect yourself and others, then you have a framework for challenging rules that hurt people.
