Van Kuilenburg’s appearance at Cruz’s rally was meant to call attention to the violent impact of such prejudice. He went, he told The Frederick News-Post, “to show Cruz supporters that rhetoric about gay and transgender rights hurts real people like him.”

Wait, which god?

Another commenter points out they might be chinos or something; whatever they are, the fit ain’t right.

Those are JEANS?!?!?

This is brilliant

I’ve appreciated reading other people’s mantras in the comments. Mine is “Your getting fat.” The typo is deliberate, to anger/motivate me even more.

I didn’t know this was a thing but I have had one for a few years now. “Look better, feel better, f*ck better”. It works on all three fronts, and it has kept me motivated for quite a long time!

I don’t have a mantra, I just imagine myself going Super Saiyan with all the white spiky hair and yellow energy and hyooge muscles. Then I’m like, “I’m going to be that. But not if I don’t go to the gym.” Sometimes I even do the silly power-up pose. I don't know why it helps.

My mantra is “You will look like an idiot if you drop dead on the 10k course”. Works for me.

And there are a lot of so-called zoos that amount to nothing other than concrete prison cells for animals.

Fuck for-profit zoos. They’re aften terrible.

Sanctuaries and wildlife preserves are also able to promote conservation of a…

They come from a long tradition of brutal exploitation, so many people do not trust this new raison d’etre.

Fuck zoos.

As a mom of a child with autism I find it mind-boggling that parents of non neurotypical kids jump on the anti-vax wagon. Because the message of the whole movement is: “It’s better to risk the life of your child than to wind up with one with autism”. It’s so unbelievably disloyal to your children. My son is perfect…

Fuck this shit.

Fuck you, guns. And douchebags with guns. RIP Will.

There were 2 reasons I chose our pediatrician, and it was based on negative Yelp reviews.

That’s my Senator! And not yours!! I shook her hand in Porter Sq. when she was running against Scott Brown in 2012. I was so surprised she was there I couldn’t think of anything to say tho. My big mouth failed me when it counted.
