Love bats. I live next to a nature reserve with a big lake. The only reason we aren’t swimming in mosquitoes every Summer is because we have a huge bat population. Every night you can watch them flying overhead eating thousands of those bugs.

yeah, thank you for saying this. it’s weird how people who don’t have mobility issues/ disabilities keep explaining to people who do that it’s really really easy if you just try it their way. like i get the initial reaction to extra plastic and cardboard, but once someone (or several people) kindly share with you how…

Ehh what is the big deal. Maybe you have mobility issues and this is easier then trying to cut one open? Really, to post about this??

As an ace, having the standalone Jughead comic that’s been one of the only pieces of popular media to specifically address some of the problems I’ve got in my life has been absolutely wonderful. I was so damn excited to have a very openly ace character on a major show when they announced the series, so this is kinda a…

Another friendly reminder that political correctness is simply treating people with respect. So yea, he’ll probably be acquitted.

Because there are standards in place for safety and building codes and storage units are not made to have people living in them like this from a fire hazard standpoint at least. And there’s no plumbing of any kind so anyone living there has to use the next door gas station for bathroom breaks and showering? And he…

Oh. For real? Great American’s Day? Between this and Trump disrepecting John Lewis on Twitter, I have got a full day of teaching to do. Here I thought I could enjoy my day off but America continues to demonstrate it needs to be schooled.

But remember people, Hillary was just as bad as Trump and people who voted Third Party just so they could personally feel good aren’t selfish in anyway.

I wonder why Jon Chait didn’t get that same sense of welcoming from his women friends.

Abstinent people also use it for skin conditions and menstrual irregularities.

Side note: Married people use contraception too. People act like every woman on the pill is a literal prostitute.

Well sure they raped her, but she caused them “sustained shame, mortification and hurt feelings” and I think we can all agree that there’s no more heinous crime than making a man feel even remotely uncomfortable for even a second!

One of my co-workers went through about four years of IVF, all but the last ended in miscarriage. It was really hard on her for a long time. At the same time, though, I kept thinking that she was a loud, vocal proponent of the idea that anyone could just put unwanted babies up for adoption because there were lots of…

I know a couple undergoing IVF treatment and are very religious/anti-abortion. They say they will either have as many kids as eggs that successfully fertilized or donate their eggs, but they do indeed believe destroying the fertilized eggs is ‘abortion’.

It might be permissible hitting, in your view, but spanking is definitely hitting.

Yet if you did the same thing to an adult, it would be assault.

I think it’s abuse. How hard is “don’t hit people”?

Probably best not to hit little kids.

A bit off topic, but in the realm of fertility.

It bugs me to no end when someone is stridently against any abortion, yet undergoes years of IVF treatment to get pregnant.
