Um, getting a disease is not part of living a healthy life.

All the points you’re making are completely and utterly wrong for this thread. American prisons are notoriously harsh and cruel places. The food is bad, the CO officers are abusive and corrupt, the sentencing is uneven, and most don’t have Internet access. They need someone from the outside to pay for extremely basic…

Prison is a holiday? Are you insane?

Both men and women perpetuate elements of the patriarchy which directly harm them. 

Wow. A woman doctor... in the US... in 2017.

Quite. It’s why it’s very important that we retire calling genital mutilation “female circumcision”; the life-changing results simply aren’t comparable.

Yep. Well, honestly, it needs to be remember that it isn’t the same thing at all. What’s removed in FGM is not equivalent removing the foreskin. It’s equivalent to emasculation — removal of all or at least part of the glans.

Someone on an IRC channel today showed off a PDF full of apparently illegal things he had done in his past and claims about his mental state.

Remember, being “disruptive and belligerent” is a crime punishable by beating in our police-state.

As long as it’s not ME being dragged off that plane. Because, hey, it never will be.... right? RIGHT?!

Until one of them finds out that that was THEIR doctor, and how dare he reschedule them because he’s on “VACATION”, doesn’t he know that they had to rearrange THEIR schedules to make this appointment happen??

Oh God not suburban opinions

like stable, the comments are annoying but did it really warrant a “fuck off”?

Yeezus are you okay?

Yes, because I support the arts and am an adult enough to understand theft when I see it.

It truly was a horrible time. I was really upset too. It helped put the final nail in Heroes coffin.

Well, fwiw, I suspect the idea that Trump is going to be run out of office by illegal connections with Russia is a bit of a pipe dream. He’s more likely to get sick and resign, have a heart attack and die, or just decide he’s not that interested in the day-to-day bullshit he never anticipated having to deal with. I…

You’d be surprised how many legal immigrants voted for Trump on the thought that their undocumented family members would be fine.

What infuriates me is that what she learned from all of this is that she thinks she shouldn’t have voted at all. Really? With hindsight, you don’t wish you had exercised your right to vote for someone whose administration probably wouldn’t have ended up encouraging the type of ICE deportations that resulted in tearing…

I feel bad for him. But her? Screw that. She should have listened to him more carefully, or, you know, not drunk the Kool-Aid and done some research. The only good thing to come of this is that maybe, just maybe, people like this will turn on him in 2020.
