Tangential note: in many countries the definition of belonging to a religion is much different than here. Ever read a stat on the percent of Catholics in a lat am country and then visited there? No one in church....only in the us do people stop identifying with a religion once they stop practicing. Weird for us, but…

It doesn’t appear he even did jail time.....or if so not much since he is only 28 and managed to marry, have children and “come highly recommended” wtf. The “misdemeanor” version of crackinng a skull open does’t warrant jail time?

I’d disagree with most commenters. Doctors and pharmacists usually tell me nothing and I decline to be counseled (so my mistake) during checkout at the pharmacy. Then I get home and I’m like -oh crap I’m supposed to read this book?! So I skim it sometimes but I can totally understand people who don’t skim it. I even…

Most of the far right will die off and these (formally considered liberal) beckies might just be the right. Not sure if you are describing a change to the battle , just a shift of the battle to the left, or as some might say, progress. Any way I am a Becky who would be ok with reparations but you know, I don’t tithe…

Is it so bad to imply that being close to death makes people reflect harder on their life’s work and try, then to bend that work towards compassion? I don’t think he means the physical brain tumor made him incompetent... just near deathyness made him nice

So true! I am a white woman, so I acknowledge I am not bearing the full brunt, but these studies typically control for job title and yet my job title is unfairly way out of line with I operate in the org. So many have titles above me that know and do less, so in a study they would seem to be fairly paid more, but in…

Our culture says women can’t show their boobs and men can....just sayin

Well the surgeon general said it was ineffective, but the GAO said it was counterproductive in some populations and some implementations.... maybe figure out where it did work and where it didn’t and improve on the program instead of saying that any national program designed to dissuade drug use must be awful.... I am…

This is probably an outside opinion, but DARE seemed to work for me. i remember the role playing for “just say no” and I feel we joked about it on the one hand and then used that line later semi joking but also seriously....I mean, opinions don’t count when stats say otherwise so I am down to hate the program if these…

Some people get a misdemenor, and a drunk pickup and can’t get sympathy (or a job) for the rest of their lives. Others get elected. Gawd. No wonder he just went right on criming....we as a society had basically given him two thumbs up for his previous infractions.

We need to start a “shareconomy” website of phone sex, ladies. Let’s help these workers cut out the middleman (or at least make the middleperson a computer who only take 10% or so). Think airbnb of phone sex :) Who’s with me? Website names?

What the hell is “leaked uniendo”??? This is making my head hurt

Too bad this won’t go anywhere. Without those recordings who would possibly believe that this *really* happened and it wasn’t a joke or a lie made up by some greedy women (who got lucky when they guessed the timing of these technical glitches).

Don’t be too hard on your mom! At some point, when the reward gets high enough, the statistically correct decision is to buy.....ignoring, of course the fact that others do the same so you may have to share your prize. Still! Do it! To figure out if that time has come find the expected value of your ticket by…

“After that day in the bungalow, she said, Cosby called her boss to tell her he should be fired. And she was.”

No no, it’s not bad when men allow business to trump patriotism, that’s just their competitive spirit. But when a woman does it,...blech! Doesn’t she stand for anything anymore?.

Gosh and she is using generic dumb model face/pose and he is like “what’s that camera device your holding?” Face. But her look isn’t all that well framed with that stony beach — something is just off here, and with her and her appropriationisimo quote

Devision —> division

Yes! I was totally one of those people that figured out advanced degrees were kinda bs. Then I went back and got one. I learned some stuff, don’t get me wrong, but I mostly learned that if you want to shift careers you have to either take a pay cut or be a over-confident career shifting person (with luck and…
