If she’s due in March, I’m six months pregnant with the enchiladas I made for dinner.

Martin Luther King III is trying to build bridges. Kudos to him for trying.

Something about this seems… infantilizing. Can we not show solidarity without resorting to wearing silly looking hats in a gender-stereotyped color? If we want to be taken seriously, I think the worst way to go about it is to make ourselves look ridiculous.

No, I don’t think a nice wedding is an investment. I was trying to imagine how affluent parents rationalize the expense. Marriage itself has financial perks, but a courthouse ceremony is very cheap.

Ugh. Over the holidays, I was at my parents’ house in New York when Gov. Cuomo was announcing his free tuition plan for SUNY. My mom made a snarky remark to the tune that, “Too bad this wasn’t around when we put our kids through college,” and I flipped on her. They did not put me through college. They paid for my…

I try to tell my partner ALL THE TIME that the reason why I am in such a different place than he is, is because he was gifted his education from hard working grand parents, his past marriage/wedding and small things from his family constantly like a new pair of boots every holiday...some little things like a pair or…

I’ve had a mix of this. I worked full time to pay for college, my parents allowed me to live at home rent free (I did for two years) which is still a huge help. No rent, utilities, groceries to buy etc. When I went to law school it was all on my own. Hence coming out with six figure debt. But, what was really strange…

He’s a murderer, a terrorist, an unapologetic racist, and an evil piece of shit.

I once knew a guy who, after accidentally flooding the bathroom and a box of tampons, took one of them to the store as a sample and bought the correct replacement. Too bad he moved back to Canada.

I’m an ex-Catholic, raging anti-Catholic atheist. And I think this is cute and sweet. Humans are the worst.

Thank you! That took a lot of dedication and hard work. What a thoughtful gift that was. Why do people have to ruin things like that? As far as we know she’s, not hurting anyone. Besides, that gift was not for us.

Unlike many of those getting angry with this there is no way this girl did this without reading most of the bible from cover to cover.

Well, tbh, she seems really nice. And that bible is lovely.

i assumed she wrote dumb shit because why else would she be getting hate. i looked at those pictures and she just pull-quoted bible verses that meant a lot to her. what is wrong with that? she put a fuck ton of work into it too.

I like the profanities in her self defense. People need to lighten up about writing in the Bible. The only thing I don’t like about it is that he won’t be able to write his own notes. Why would a devout Christian be upset that she read the entire Bible closely enough to add commentary, then shared that commentary…

Poor thing. I have nothing but sympathy for her. What’s wrong with people? She did nothing wrong, offended no one, spent months making a heartfelt gift, and gets death threats? People suck. I hope this didn’t ruin her Christmas or damage her boyfriend’s appreciation of the gift.

The pastor who taught religious studies at my old school had a bible full of illustrations from the Middle Ages. One day his little daughter got her hands on it and used it as a colouring book. He loved it. He particularly liked that the parting of the sea now looked like a giant wall of lime jello.

This is what bibles looked like in the Middle Ages when they were still being hand-copied by monk scribes. All decorated with pictures and shit. Stick that in your pipes and smoke it, haters.

All of this for doing what Christian monks did for centuries?
