It’s the biggest, messiest word salad I’ve encountered today.
I’m actually impressed that the whole thing wasn’t blacked out.
I read the whole thing too and had the following thoughts:
reading this you can also map out Trump’s speech patterns
So, she is Carla from Cheers?
Yeah - except the “irrational” part makes no sense.
Korea went from Lee Myung Bak - probably their worst president since the dictators, and voted for an even WORSE president, Park Geun Hye.
There should be no surprises about any of this, and yet; Koreans are acting surprised.
I mean, it would the same as if America were…
it’s comforting to people who have lost a baby or spouse. weird but i kind of get it.
I agree it seems weird. My mom had a still born baby in the early 80s. Sometime later when it because more common to take pictures with still born babies, she talked about how much she wished that would have been an option for her and the baby. The a slightly different situation but I guess if it helps you grieve and…
It definitely doesn’t seem like my cup of tea, but losing a child is something so awful that I can’t bring myself to judge anything that might bring comfort.
This bill is horrible and shitty on it’s own. But it’s also terrible because it’s a smokescreen to hide a ban on cities increasing the minimum wage.
I know of no previous law outlawing women from using the men’s bathroom - thank goodness. I went to a college that had become coed fairly recently and used the men’s bathrooms ALL. THE. TIME. Even the few “Women’s” bathrooms had urinals.
as embarrassing as this law is, it’s really highlighted some of the awesome progressive groups that are doing good work in our state... and I love to see that since we’re so often painted with the broad “redneck backwater” brush by well-meaning people who have never been here. McCrory has been a damn nightmare and as…
Most jurisdictions have not had any laws mandating who can use which bathroom. The bathroom panic only started when Republicans realized trans people had been peeing next to them for years, and they’d never noticed.
And let’s remember that more senators have been arrested for misconduct in bathrooms than transpeople.
The North Carolina legislature is now this year’s biggest bathroom joke.
I had this discussion with friends yesterday. Before these past few years, were there ever any laws that mandated you can only use the bathroom assigned to your gender? Because myself and just about every woman I know have used a men’s restroom to avoid the huge line for the women’s.
This law has been such a fucking embarrassment. As a Black woman with roots in North Carolina, I come from a family that has some experience with old white men in Raleigh trying to say which bathrooms we could and could not use. It’s been heartening to see the protests that have been going on throughout the state—I…
