It’s a start. I live in California, and we get 8 to 12 weeks, which can be extended by a doctor, since they recognized pregnancy as a disability under state law. I ended up with disability for a year after my first child after developing PPD and worsening of chronic conditions. This is the way it should be, at a…

6 weeks isn’t much... but then I remember that Americans get nothing at all normally.

It's incredibly sad to me that a mere six weeks leave is something to be happy about. But umm...good I guess.

It’s amazing that someone who ran from responsibility for his actions for four years and lied to (and endangered the lives of) his significant others and partners is now claiming the mantle of humanitarian. I guess it really is true that you can spin a story any way you want to.

Yes, and while we are at it, let’s campaign to fix our TV commercials. Women are STILL portrayed as being responsible for choosing peanut butter, doing the laundry, washing the dishes and making Stovetop stuffing. There have been a few improvements but in total there is really next to no progress. I’m so sick of it.

To me, the last paragraph exemplifies why this is a good idea. It seems like they’re going out of their way to avoid saying “your immigrant ways are wrong” and instead are saying “there are the rules here. even if these rules don’t apply where you are from, they apply in Norway.”

Can someone offer a similar course for certain members of the GOP?

Is it weird that I feel like this is okay? Like, it should be taught as part of language classes and middle school classes and to everyone everywhere.

America’s chocolate game is WEAK. So weak.

Fancy chocolate is overrated anyway. Give me Toblerone or Milka and I am good.

It’s a slippery slope if someone is black out drunk but not unconscious and actively doing things to the extent that another person can’t tell they are that drunk or is equally drunk themselves. On the first night of a Vegas trip, all I can remember is dancing and putting down a few of the free vodka drinks for ladies…

I have no idea who these people are and I assume Nik Richie was female. Jokes on me!

yeesh is right

Let’s take a minute to consider that this is Nik Richie, founder of a revenge porn gossip site, trying to press a woman into talking about rape. This is the kind of woman he regularly chews up and calls a gutterwhore on his website.

If Lala doesn’t feel violated, I am happy and glad for her (being a rape survivor myself, I would never wish anyone to feel what I feel/felt), but I certainly hope she doesn’t feel like she can speak for any other women that have had a similar experience with this guy. She might not feel violated or threatened by him,…

“the recent grad of Moody Bible Institute” is “serious about finding himself a woman,” but he’ll be keeping things PG until a special gal puts a ring on it. Renoe “says he’s still going to wait for his honeymoon to tear up his v-card.”

Yeaaaaaah.

No one is saying he did, that statistic is for the nearly 1000 officers mentioned above, origins/names unknown.

How could they do this? Simple. It’s called the law. Something you were supposed to uphold, not break.

Related, if indirectly. This just reminded me that I don’t know the answer to this: if I were pulled over, how do I indicate to the officer pulling me over that I am waiting until we get to an area where I feel safe?
