can we please stop this “waist training” bullshit and just call them corsets, which is what they fucking are?

Here are Matthew McConaughey’s deeply romantic musings on the first time he saw his wife, Camila Alves: “I didn’t say, ‘Who is that?’ I went, ‘What is that?’

I work with rescue, and you are 100% right. I see a lot of people going back to breeders because of the insane hoops they have to jump through to adopt from some rescues. The people running some of these agencies are control freaks with no sense of reality.

Gonna weigh in as someone with multiple degrees in the animal field/currently in vet school:

So, I love cats and was frequently traveling to L.A. for work in 2015. I decided to attend the inaugural CatCon event, a convention for cat people, held last June.

I have never once heard someone say “get the facts before you judge someone” and then subsequently received any facts that would change my judgment. The only fact that seems to matter is that they don’t feel like they did anything wrong, and therefore they didn’t.

These occult/religious guys that always go for multiple wives or young child brides are usually the same ones that couldn’t get one wife if they were a secular Joe.

Go back a couple of generations and they’re right in it. Christine’s an Allred and Robyn’s first husband is a Jessup (and also an Allred). When Christine gets all paranoid about her grandfather being taken away, she’s referring to a massive crackdown in the 50s in which her (step)grandfather Rulon Allred was arrested…

Are you referring to Prophet’s Prey? It’s so good, and those tapes made me shiver and cringe. I feel so sorry for the boys and girls born into this cult. The ones that get out and manage to flourish are - to paraphrase Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt - strong as hell.

You must have no idea about John Lewis’ role in the civil rights movement of the 1960s or how powerful sit-ins were for that movement. If you did, you would not be calling this childish.

They are giving speeches right now, in addition to not being moved.

You are silly if you think that intelligent conversation is possible in this Congress. But based on your spelling you’re not in the US, so you can decline the silly label on a geographic technicality.

You’re very clearly not American, so you don’t know that other more “adult” strategies have thus far failed. Sit-ins have a long and successful history in this country of forcing change for the better. So go fuck yourself.

It’s been almost 8 years, it’s about time the Dems realized “compromise” is not giving the GOP everything they demand.

We tried intelligent conversation. It was called a “filibuster” and the Republicans wiped their asses with it.

Sit-ins were an essential reason why the civil rights movement of the 1960s succeeded, and John Lewis was one of the men who made it happen. So you can stop talking now.

Former members have lifetime floor privileges. They should have arranged for Gabby Giffords and any other former members they could find willing to come join them.

trickle down “give no fucks” Obama!

Update, 12:30 PM: As the Democrats sit in, KOMO News reports that another mass shooting has occurred, this one with three dead and one wounded, in Lacey, Washington, outside of the Olympia area.

Let’s all take this opportunity to tell our representatives in the House that we support the Dems and we support reasonable gun control laws. Call or email your congressperson now!

I am fucking ECSTATIC that our elected officials are taking a stand (sit) against this bullshit. It irks the hell out of me that they need to adopt the tactics that those outside government use to urge government to action, because more than half of congress is basically a bunch of spoiled children.
