Agreed. When I read the post a few days ago about teachers dealing with their students, I thought it read like a Studs Terkel oral history.

Smoking causes cancer. Eating processed meats causes cancer. If giving oral sex to your wife (Catherine Zeta Jones) causes cancer, I dont see why that should stop anyone. We have all done worse for less.

Or a shitty Jimmy Smits movie.

Switch: “not like this... not like this”

5 years probation. Suspended CDL. The company caught a major fine and their insurance had to pay out for the first victim’s expenses as well as for my car plus pain and suffering.

What about in these?

If stupid people are having more kids (which is a hypothesis that I find dubious to begin with), then they are more fit, and their traits will be passed to the next generation (if you believe intelligence is inherited, which is also debatable). This does not go against Darwin’s theory of evolution in any way. He never…

“Then our music critic Ken Tucker reviews ‘The Thoughtful Hick’, the new album from a country music duo who met at Princeton.”

Sometimes I get the impression that Terry asks her guests sex questions as if Terry is still trying to figure it all out too.

“Hi, welcome to Fresh Air. I’m Terry Gross. You may know Jesus of Nazareth from his kicking the moneylenders out of the temple or possibly from his biographical anthology, The Bible. Jesus, welcome to the program.”

Lately I’ve been really feeling this conflict surrounding the Brock Turner case (and the other ones like it). Because on one hand, I’m 100% against rape. On the other, I’m not the wrath and punishment sort.

Ok you know what, I can count the number of people on one hand that I’ve ever called a cunt in my entire life, it’s not a word I use lightly.

Ah you think porn is your ally? You merely adopted the porn. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn’t see the light until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but blinding!”

I love when you can see athletes enjoying their sport. The game can be so serious with everyone’s eye on the prize and not taking the moment to enjoy the whole deal.

Well, they haven’t had a lot of experience with winning major international competitions the last century so I guess I can see why they want it so much.

This is a huge issue with male liberals. It is a “side” issue or “woman’s” issue and we really need to focus on economics and free college. I hear this ALL the time by otherwise very progressive men in my real life. Something that affects half the population isn’t a fucking side issue. Not too mention access and…

I fucking hate the way that the “white girl” meme has morphed from a tool for women of color to talk about white women’s complicity in white supremacist systems into a way for people to spew gross misogyny under the guise of calling out racial privilege.
