38 minutes ago, that sentence tore a whole in the universe

That male cheerleader is like something out of a Marines commercial.

And they say women couldn't stand the heat of battle. SHE, ladies and gents, is who I want to be in a foxhole with.

Surely if the internet bands together we can find her and celebrate her for the goddamn hero she is.

She tourniquets her arm at the elbow with an ice pick and towel, washes the blood off, puts the offending knife onto the gas fire, heats it to a nice brick red and...wait for it...cauterize her own arm.

Look, can we just call everyone an asshole?

Celiac isn't a gluten allergy, though, and there are non-Celiacs who are allergic to gluten. There aren't a lot of them, and most people claiming to be allergic to gluten these days are completely full of shit, but they do exist. A better test is to see if someone understands that "gluten" and "wheat" are not…

Was at our town's new "deluxe diner" last week. It's fantastic and they are brand-new so the waitstaff is still getting their footing, figuring out staffing patterns, menu quirks, etc. The food is sort of upscale diner-ish and just delicious. Anyway, as my table was finishing our meals, a new table sat next to us. Two…

If someone actually has Celiac, they tell you they have Celiac, don't they? So can we all just agree that if someone declares themselves as "allergic to gluten," that they're just an asshole?

"VERY allergic to gluten"

I'm glad it helped. The issue of audience complicity in violence has been explored by many performance artists (Abramovic, Chris Burden, Yoko Ono etc.) and one thing we've learned from their work, as well as from social science research like the Milgram study and the Stanford Prison experiment, is that there's really…

Yeah, I taught an undergrad performance class once and if one of my students proposed this piece I'd have some very tough questions about its scope and purpose, the implicit interactional parameters they expected, and what they would do if an audience member violated one of those parameters. I probably wouldn't…

It's because it's not a black and white situation. As a rape survivor, frankly this pisses me off. It doesn't feel legit to me. The way he's talking about it, as if he couldn't say no and couldnt even talk to his girlfriend about it because he was SO committed to the ART, oh and the poor other boyfriend... to me it…

This breaks my heart even more than the original post. Maybe I'm generalizing based on my own experiences, but there are those good and bad moments in our lives that we crave to repeat or struggle to forget. I don't know if anyone saw the movie 'The Loneliest Planet", but there is a scene where one of the characters…

They've all had the opportunity; libraries are everywhere. They don't actually want to learn about evolution, they just want their team to be right.

Anyone who has ever visited a dog breeder or a cattle farm should understand that evolution is just nature doing by accident what animal husbandry does on purpose. The fact that even hicks try to say it's not real is willfully stupid.

Can someone please explain to me how creationists claim there are no fossils to prove evolution? Either I'm totally missing something, or these fucking people have never opened a book in their life (except for one, obviously).

I speak Italian and watched this at HuffPost last night. At one point, they ask her if the Pope knows about her singing, and she says, "I'm waiting for him to call me."

Her horns killed it!
