Strangely, I enjoyed deployments. I was stationed in Ft Drum. I hate being cold. So much so that I actually looked forward to going anywhere, but there. Luckily my unit did a shit ton of training so we were hardly ever in Drum.

This one time I woke up to this big asshole yelling at me. I got up and got dressed. I ran down stairs and stood in a gaggle fuck for awhile. Then I went and picked up the 120lb bag and another 100 lb bag I packed days earlier. Then I sat on the bag in a parking lot for awhile. Then I got up and someone handed…

30 years ago, we lived in Dallas (eww) My wife befriended a couple who had a small young son. When we moved back to California, we invited them to come out and go up to Reno and then onto Yosemite for a nice California vacation. We had my family to watch our sons, it was understood to be a child-free vacation.…

How to make women feel safer? By actually making women safer. Which means by prosecuting the living fuck out of guys who prey on us — meaning many more men than most guys are comfortable prosecuting — and making it stick.

It's actually pretty simple if you have the stones to do it.

But what will they do when they discover drugs in their drink, except of immediately leaving the room? When people don't believe there is such a rape culture when actual rapes happen, why should they believe rape culture exists just because some women say their nail polish changed it's colour.

The fact that something like this is needed is depressing, but thanks, gentlemen, for restoring a bit of my faith in humanity.

You rang?

You just wrote Sean Hannity's show for tonight. Kudos

He shot himself in the back without a gun! No wait, he shot himself in the chest without a gun, while his hands were cuffed behind his back! But no, he had a third arm we just didn't know what to do with because there are only two cuffs! No wait, he stole an officer's gun and held a white child hostage! Actually, he…

I'll be Sausage Dick.

His dad sounds like one of those guys who are so sure they're thinking some super deep thoughts but come across as uneducated, sexist idiots. There are way too many folks like that out there.

I live in England now and sold many of my books before moving over here. As a surprise for my birthday a few days ago, my husband and his mum bought me the entire set in the blue Harper dustjackets and box like I had before I came here. Though common in the US, they are pricier and hard to find over here. It made…

You're missing the bigger point: The women you know may not give a shit about certain details, a whole fuckton of other women you don't know care very very much about those details.

I will devour this like so much maple sugar snow candy.

The retort for "most women don't know how to drive a manual" is "most men don't either." :)

It'll get more realistic over time as they release more models and more supercharger stations get built.

Or, you know, avoid the stealerships completely and use CarMax. Better yet, buy a Tesla.

Heartbreaking. My husband is an avid climber and this is a discussion we have often. He loves climbing so much, I can't bring myself to ask him to stop, but I basically sit with my phone in my hand when he goes.

America was founded on the individual pursuit of happiness, no? I think we are independent in a way that makes us more concerned about our individual success than the success of our society as a whole. If you are too concerned with everyone having a quality life then you are labelled a socialist. But it's part of the…
