Yes, but HOW? How do you get followed by the site admin when no one sees your comments? If this is going to be the system, Jez needs to be a lot more generous with the following.

Back to the comment caste system I see. Sigh. It was nice having people see my posts occasionally. </Eeyore>

It absolutely is NOT sterile. Bacterial colonization begins the first couple of weeks after a child is born, no matter how he or she is fed.

He had me until the Harry Potter deal breaker, but I guess I'm as bad as he is since people who feel that way about Harry Potter are out of the running for me.

People have posted a couple of links to the story on their FB so if they are not aware, they should be soon.

I hope Fred and Friends, the makers of these novelty baking cups, sue the surgery practice for using their product images in this ad campaign, since I'm fairly certain they didn't ok this.

I don't disagree that they are a big deal. I disagree that they are a bigger deal than a person needing donated blood to recover from a surgery or accident. Would your boycott extend to personally refusing to accept blood obtained by these discriminatory agencies, even if you needed it?

I'm with you guys, it's severely wrongheaded to think that's the way to fight this. I agree that it's total bullshit that MSM individuals and their partners can't give blood, but denying innocent people who DID NOT MAKE THE POLICY a life saving transfusion is a callous and just plain stupid way to deal with it.

I'm glad you're writing to the Blood Services, but you must admit that your letters do nothing for the people who wait for blood transfusions while you wait for policy changes. I mean, it's no worse than anyone else who doesn't give blood (which tons of people don't, mostly just because they don't want to), but…

You should amend it to "too bad I have a rate blood type you won't get now, sick and injured people!" Because while I understand the urge to boycott, it really doesn't hurt anyone but the people who need blood transfusions. :/

Maybe they just decided to sell the furs because they realized they were hideous? Because they are.

I can see my uterus demanding this once a month though TBH.

You might be the actual worst.

Ugh, I'm sorry. You're lucky you weren't killed or badly hurt no matter what you did since plowing into a deer at full speed can sometimes mess you up as much as hitting another car! That's a no-win situation right there.

Except that in this case, the wife of the motorcyclist who witnessed the tragedy isn't even out for vengeance: 'in the days immediately after the accident, even [Paulina] Volikakis questioned the wisdom of bringing charges against Czornobaj. "She saw them die, both of them," Volikakis said. "You can punish her until…

It sounds like this woman made a measured decision to stop for some ducklings, which I agree was stupid (especially without putting on her hazards or using a road flare or SOMETHING), but it's also sometimes an instinctive reaction to stop for animals. I slammed on my brakes on the interstate once when two large dogs…

I wonder if it isn't supposed to subtly remind us that Katniss and Prim's father got blown up in the mines when they were little (along with a number of other children's parents no doubt)?

Gotcha. Really I was responding more to the implied question of "why is an endorsement from Shailene Woodley bullshit?" rather than the literal question of who she is, since the googles can answer that.

Ah fair enough. I forgot that detail (and having seen the show, I didn't take the time to rewatch the video, oops) and that would definitely make a difference. Still not for me since, like the Beastie Boys, I like my sugar with coffee and cream.

Hey, she can be good at her job and still be a moron. She's also young, which doesn't give her a pass but maybe she'll learn better?
