Also, McCarthy is not an "autism activist." She's a "fix your unacceptable retard-child with bullshit fixes that won't 'cure' a thing and could very well lead to them dying of something like measles" activist. Subtle distinction.

I think going into this a little more is helpful...basically, the Health Minister is allowing her to have a Caesarean section that will end her pregnancy, but because the fetus is at 26 weeks it's not considered an abortion. This is just her "delivering her baby", according to the government.

Her face looked much, much better after she chopped her hair off, so I wonder if it had a LOT to do with that horrendous wig they put her in. It made her head look huge and her body looked so tiny, she looked like Tila Tequila. I could not. stop. looking!

I am usually the one who ruins the fun for others.

I for one, applaud these dauphins on being the first of their species to earn their medical degrees and board certification in obstetrics.

Can somebody come up with an internet-ish nickname for the person that pretends that both sides are the same so they can absolve themselves of any critical thinking?

The "we were equal opportunity exploiters" doesn't hold weight here because I sincerely doubt Khan was being ogled by Uhura in this scene and as Conan points out with his joke about the music is a dramatic scene expressing something about his character. Likewise, Kirk is not ogled in his scene and it's about his…

Also the war on drugs is super effective you guys.

Oh, here's another question WHERE WAS THE REST OF STARFLEET!?! The earth should be on massively high alert due to not one, but two terrorist attacks, one that wipes out their senior command, but they don't notice two starships fighting (one a freaking dreadnought) behind the moon!?! Pretty big freaking blindspot to…

I am not. Not because he doesn't deserve it, but because we lose bits and pieces of our humanity when we allow it.

There's a lot for and against the idea that Hearst and DuPont conspired to have hemp banned because it could replace paper products, but a lot of drug prohibition has to do with racism. The opium ban was aimed at Asians, Marijuana came under fire because migrant workers from Mexico liked to smoke it on their breaks,…

I seem to have a bipolar disorder (though it hasn't been officialy diagnosed yet), have been treated for depression for at least 5 years now. Though I've already tried many different medicines to fight my condition, I haven't found the right one yet. Funnily and interestingly enough, smoking marijuana has an amazingly…

There's the problem, mentioned before, of Moffat's tendency to tell rather than show. We have characters constantly banging on about how important River is, how deep her relationship with the Doctor is, but then we're never actually shown any of it. We're told about this vast myth surrounding the Pandorica, but then…

The scene is terrible and shows that JJ needs to go back to overblown TV melodrama. Kirk should have been born in the sickbay in a quiet scene with his dad before he left for duty so then when shit hit the fan there wouldnt be a ridiculously long back and forth over a communicator in the middle of a battle. When you…

THANK YOU. Yes- She has a shitload of cash. YES- She is going to buy the best health care that she can for herself. And hey, look guys HEY LOOK: She already criticized the healthcare that the impoverished have. She's been talking about the healthcare they receive for over a decade, you assholes.

It's clear that nobody actually read the Op-Ed who keeps harping on Angie for being privileged about this. She says, and I quote:

I haven't thought about that possibility. But my guess is that the kids are more likely to get healthier lunches at school bc parents lack education about healthy meals. It is also probably less expensive to have healthy school lunches than increase food stamps (economies of scale) and, at our school anyway, the…

Until someone finds a way to monetize domestic abuse prevention we are out of luck.Just look at how you local police spend your tax dollars.Low profile cars to blend in so they can make more money from speeders,but not bad drivers.Tanks and body armour to get the pot smokers and confiscate dealers money and property…

This is has a fairly judgey tone. I mean, some things are illegal no matter what, like bestiality and child porn, but gang rape porn? Not necessarily illegal or shameful. The mass-produced videos are all done in a consensual manner (with conversations with the women confirming this) and they're just fantasies. And if…

No, you just don't understand how to read the chart. The bars are sitting on top of each other, not behind one another. A thicker bar means more deaths, height on the chart doesn't matter. So pharmaceuticals are by far the largest (i.e. thickest) bar, while cannabis etc... are invisibly slim.
