Sharks and Portuguese Man-o-War.

Gators, snakes, alligator snapping turtles, brain-killing amoebas, and flesh-eating bacteria. Just don’t go in the water unless it’s a pool. But also check those for gators. And bears.

They’ve basically turned into a lobby for the gun manufacturers. And every time there’s a mass shooting, gun sales go up.

They all seem to think that the “they” in “if they try to take my guns” is some unarmed, unguarded, singular person in a suit, or something. I’m pretty sure the “they” would be the local SWAT team, which is probably outfitted with military surplus hardware. Maybe the National Guard or the military - you know, if…

I think it’s also designed to prevent them from mentioning studies that indicate that having a gun in the home actually increases your risk of harm, and other secondary effects. Maybe stats about kids and accidental deaths. Not just the actual damage a ballistic projectile does to a person’s body.

This is my mother. She thinks of Fox News like she thinks of MSNBC. It’s insane.

I think it’s also location. No one had ever heard of Sandy Hook before - it’s a small town in a small state. Everyone’s heard of Orlando. Millions of people vacation here every year, and everyone knows Disney. It makes it more real for a lot of people when it’s somewhere they know and somewhere they’ve been. There are…

Yeah, all the gun nuts I know are doubling down, extra-convinced that “Obummer” is coming for their guns. As if, you know, a few handguns and assault rifles would do anything against military hardware if the government were ACTUALLY coming for people’s guns. I think my relatives harbor fantasies of Obama himself…

This was very cathartic for me. I was floor directing our local news show for 10 hours on Sunday, and thus prevented from screaming every time this terrible human being (and her cohort, Governor Voldemort) opened her mouth about the LGBT community. We played the clip of her at the press conference a few times, and I…

I mean, the club’s website just has a statement up now, but before then, it was described on its website as a gay club. All these people who refuse to admit it was a gay club confuse me.

I was in a sorority at a private women’s college. No hazing, no embarrassing pranks - just a little induction ritual done in the sorority house. We had mandatory public service hours and study time (if your GPA was below a certain point). Nothing tortuous or tormenting (unless you count being made to watch Survivor and…

UFC’s going full-on WWE - they’ve even got their own backstage “reporters” for fighter reactions, now.

Well, technically you can murder someone in less than 30 seconds, if you’re quick enough. There’s a reason why sentencing isn’t based on the duration of the offense (unless, maybe, we’re talking about torture).

Or, just own it proudly.

I’m not fond of insects or arachnids, but reptiles are awesome. Especially snakes. Snakes are great. Those dancing spiders who play bongos and wield lightsabers are pretty adorable, though.

Oh, I have no doubt he’s anti-union. Former wrestlers like Taz have backed this up on their podcasts. It was more of a rhetorical question, like why doesn’t SAG-AFTRA step up?

Pro wrestlers (or “Superstars”, whatever) are actors. They have scripted lines they have to recite, and WWE programs are stunt-based soap operas. They’ve even started putting up disclaimers on the network about how the characters are fictitious, etc. How are they not covered by SAG?

They are, in the South. When I worked at Target and Old Navy in Georgia and Florida, it was fairly common to see women taking their sons into the women’s bathroom, and just as common at we’d get complaints about it and not really be able to do anything. And we’re not talking toddlers. Up to 11 and 12.

Can’t stand the smell. Instant headache and sinus problems. So, no thank you.

I was a little surprised that WWE didn’t ban it after the Benoit incident.
