what’s the use of a relationship if not to have a uniquely important platform to occasionally tell a person they’re being a shithead?

Amazing. Holy shit.

hmmmmmmmm, though it’s sort of adorable to imagine a version of me that would stop doing something simply because my boyfriend wanted me to, that’s not what happened here.

It’s almost like she’s a rich, white feminist...

2016 America: Where a 12-year old boy is shot and killed by the police for playing with a toy and it’s his fault because he should have “known” that people would see him as a threat, while a full-grown adult who rapes an unconscious woman and tries to flee should only have to endure a couple months of jail because…

You know, I didn’t even have to check your username to know instantly that you were a man.* You know why? Because this is a prime example of how men with fragile egos love to interrupt conversations about gender to make completely irrelevant assertions in defense of manly-manly manhood.

You know, I know you’re talking to a group of Liberals (including me) here, but calling God “Imaginary Sky Daddy” while talking about how you’re so much smarter than conservatives is *exactly* what makes conservative people who don’t think very hard about it think that liberals are assholes.

My best friend and college roommate for three years is a conservative, and was a member of the college Republicans. He was (and is) an exemplary conservative and one whom I wish the party was full of.

Some people cover-up their unhappiness with their jobs very well from the bosses! There have been several times that co-workers make that “just off” comment to me that shows that they’ll be leaving in a month or two, but otherwise seem perfectly content with their day-to-day. As a job hopper myself, I’m privy to the…

I just want to point out that you started off by saying the women who say SSM is a cult are“fucking crazy” and then proceeded to write a 10 thousand word single paragraph incoherent ramble.

Maybe they expected a change of scenery would make a predator not be a predator.

Grow up, the internet doesn’t stop for you

Especially the LDS church. I’m inactive now, but let me tell you, it was so much fun being the one blamed for the divorce - despite my ex’s abysmal track record of even keeping a job. (Not to mention the million other reasons I dumped him.)

I was using ‘Raleigh’ to mean the state government, not the city itself, but your point is well taken. thanks for the insight!

No worries! If there’s any silver lining, I’m super proud to see so many people affiliated with NC (the brewery pact featured on NPR, lots of companies and residents, many cities/towns, etc etc) condemning it.

Spot on, but just want to point out that a large portion of “Raleigh” as you referred to it, is horrified and disgusted at all this shit...just because the legislature and shithead governor lives here, doesn’t mean the people in the city are anywhere near supportive!

If the whole thing you ‘disagree’ with is the mere idea of someone loving another person who is the same gender as them than yeah. You’re not respecting them at all.

He helped enact policies that put countless black men in jail. Thats a form of racism if there ever was one. Certainly at least a much as if he said “nigger”.

How do you get charged with *just* resisting arrest is the question? What was the original charge she was resisting being arrested for?

how can someone’s only charge be “resisting arrest” tho? i’m not arguing that she wasn’t resisting, but doesn’t it scare you that you can be arrested for the sole reason of resisting arrest?

“Fuck. So close.”
