Can’t agree there. I was totally on board with her complaining about another child teasing her kid until she cries. One may or may not agree about the pretend guns, but that level of teasing is not teasing anymore; it is flat-out bullying.

I’m with the librarian about Point #2. You can’t expect a library to get rid of all the children’s books with subtle sexist messages. Even if the library just got rid of all the books with OVERT sexist messages, it wouldn’t carry any European fairy tales. (Except Hansel and Gretel. Gretel’s a badass.) I think the…

When my son was in kindergarten, I consistently spoke up as the parent of a kid with autism, bringing those issues into conversations, and I worried that it would mark me as the Weird Mom, but after a couple of years I saw attitudes changing among the parents.

I once met an anti-vaxxer who “didn’t believe” in modern medicine or drugs of any kind, refused to vaccinate her 3 kids, etc.

That is way more eloquent that I could possibly be. My only reaction was FUUUUUUUUCCCCKKKKKKK YOOUUUUUUUUUUU!

People, please start believing that health care IS the miracle God sent you.

This is amazing. I love The Golden Girls. I used to watch it with my grandmom when I was a kid but didn’t get a lot of it. Re-watching it as an adult was a goddamn treasure. Hot damn that was a sassy and smart as fuck show.

As much fun as it is to watch the GOP freak out, this maniac should not be this close to any public office. It doesn't matter if everyone is sure that the Democrats can beat him, he should not be in a position to potentially become POTUS. I'm scared and I'm not even American.

Yes. France, Italy and Spain have no tourists. No-one who lives there dares venture outside. They are now solely inhabited by freely roaming, wild nipples.

“said New Hampshire could lose tourism dollars if women are wandering public places with their breasts uncovered.” Have any of these people ever been to a public beach in Europe?

I don’t know. I sort of recall even as a teen thinking that Atticus’s enjoyed having the poor and suffering precisely so he could show his superiority. Scout even opens the book with a tracing of ancestory back to England, which, of course, those American “aristocrats” love to do. It is an early signal that this man…

Fred Smoot was reportedly unimpressed.

Globe story reveals that more than two thirds of people on board had no idea it was a Gronk cruise until they showed up

These standards DO apply to adults in the real world. If I made a racist remark to someone at work, I would lose my job. If we want to treat college students like adults, then they to need to understand that even legal actions can have unfavorable consequences.

but you know, she wasn’t wearing them to antagonize black women...IT’S ABOUT HERITAGE!

For every time Sky Daddy says “don’t judge” he also says “but if they do this fairly minor thing, stone them the fuck to death” so no, Sky Daddy cares a great deal. You can’t pick and choose Sky Daddy quotes, no matter which batch you pick.

Actually, Sky Daddy cares. He explicitly said we shouldn’t judge others. Christianity, you’re doing it wrong.

where are they registered? i’d like to send them a wedding gift and a note of hope and love.

I am a case manager for low income families. A lot of my clients have some trouble with family planning and regardless of the fact that some of them live off of less that a thousand dollars a month, continue having baby after baby. Do I think it’s right to keep bringing children into poverty? No. Do I keep my opinions…

Writing as I read because I have SO MANY FEELINGS about this.
