It’s not about shitting on victims. If you’re on a defense team the victims can’t be relevant to what you’re doing. Victims don’t have rights, or shouldn’t, within the court system. It’s not an easy idea to swallow, for sure, but it’s one meant to keep the sides honest.

According to my husband and all of our other public defender friends, “Victims don’t have rights.”

Ooh...This sounds like a parenting pro-tip!

I had an employer who hated my breasts. I’m a fairly small person with disproportionately large breast and she hated them. Once she even suggested she could work out a deal with one of our plastic surgeon clients.

This is fucking adorable. 😍😍😍

That’s mean to Satan’s bunghole.

Eeeeeeeee! That puppy has a heart shaped spot!

I try to keep Dawn on hand for grease stains on clothes and pepper accidents. My routine for accidental peppering is: olive oil rub, dish soap lathering, and rubbing alcohol dousing if the first two fail to stop the burning.

OMG!!! I say this all the fucking time!!! It’s all I could think about when I heard delusional Sanders supporters talking about not voting for Hillary and possibly voting for Stein or Trump. I mean, especially with Mike Pence as VP...wtf, people...

Atwood is a fabulous, prescient witch. I love her so hard.

For reals! I’m from Houston and currently live in Philadelphia. Up until recently, I reveled in comparing the summer forecast here to Houston’s. Now... it’s basically Houston up here. WTF.

Are we really going to reward people for being decent human beings? Shouldn’t we just be decent people? Shouldn’t that be our default setting?

This is the most hilarious thing I’ve read today.

For sure. My white husband feels the same way. He is reluctant to get the police involved because of how they might escalate any given situation. Also, through his job he is more than familiar with their shit corrupt ways and just how generally awful they are, especially in Philly.

Nope! I would not say that I respect the police. I regard them in the same way as a rabid, wild animal. (And truthfully, I have more respect for diseased wild animals.)

Yeaaaahhh!!! We announced mother’s day weekend at 16 weeks with the okay from our OB. It was early-ish to me, but my husband and I also failed to tell our families (and our friends) that we eloped....soooooooo we felt obligated/compelled to tell everyone about this in a timely fashion for a change. We made a very…

But they’re only “pro-family” to subjugate women and minorities and to keep poor people poor.

Yes, yes, yes!!! We imbue them with more than just life merely by WANTING them and no woman should ever be forced to carry a child if she doesn’t want to. We need to stop thinking about pregnancies in terms of cooing fat babies and realize that those babies grow up and cost money. It’s 2016, dammit, we’ve got a cure…

Holy shit. I can’t with this family leave situation. I’ve had friends who took the bare minimum allowed and returned to their jobs feeling totally fucking displaced. And when one of them tried to confront their employer about it she was accused of being hormonal, shrill, and paranoid.
