Personally, I want to take people who say that, "but those disabled people are so nice and inspirational!" (as if that's somehow an argument against eradicating a illness) and beat them with a stick.

That's the mystery to me. I thought it already was. If I'm out and about, I won't go near alcohol if I'm driving. (And we all know how much I luvz the alcohol.) In Texas, it's a $10,000 fine for popping over the limit on a DUI test. They revoke your license. There's jail time. That's a hefty deterrent, BUT that's not…

It's wonderful, absolutely wonderful! I'm financially independent. I look great. I'm healthy. It's never been better!

Huh, so a bunch of doctors in the "the world’s largest specialty association for facial plastic surgery" put out a press release basically blaming young women for their own poor self image, and Jezebel publishes a more or less uncritical summary of their press release?

I am truly perplexed at the apparent war against the selfie.
Phones have cameras. People snap pics of themselves.
Whatever problems we have, can we all just agree that people taking selfies are not the cause of these problems?
I can't believe I just typed that...

I'm weirdly tempted to get my own picture sneak-posted (friends on reddit) because I didn't get enough positive attention as a child and I sort of want to know how much garbage I could collect.

I know not all dudes (or even most dudes) are like this, but I have to say— when I read comments like the ones in this article it makes me scared of all of them for a bit. How can people be so awful? How can men who reference wanting to be intimate with someone expect that openness with women when they talk about us…

I don't think this woman is heartless or soulless. I think she has an addiction and possibly some mental problems. I don't doubt that she loves her daughter. She's just a shitty parent. I don't think I'm getting up on a high horse by saying this. She doesn't meet the bare minimum standards of acceptable parenting…

Any other cynics out there who have just accepted that they will get cancer at some point in their lives?

Duh, everyone knows Repubs use Grindr and Rentboy. Craigslist is so passe.

Wait. Isn't American Apparel's entire schtick that they make their clothes in the USA? I'm really confused by this ad.

I think the other thing I'm certain of is that I want to be more neighborly.

Because casual racism is tame, at least! We shouldn't worry about it then, of course. These people don't deserve to share their unique experience.

Someone should submit a bill that allows us to sue salespeople for items that we purchased that we now regret.

"Iowa proposes law that allows disappointed voters to sue their elected officials."

I have no idea whether these claims are true or not, but Morrissey's entire "why would someone lie about this" stance is either breathtakingly naive or simply dumb. People lie about absolutely EVERYTHING, often for nonsensical, ridiculous, mental illness-related, or (yes!) malicious reasons that don't actually benefit…

What I would like to know how the statistics breakdown when you only count tithing members of a particular church. Those are the real members.

I've listened to Pat Robertson talk. It can be pretty hard.

I'm torn because while I hate SeaWorld, I also hate PETA. I don't particularly trust either of them to deal with this situation in a reasonable, non-batshit evil way.
