You can wear it over your ass, but your ass can’t sit on it. I think. Flag rules are weird.

But its ok to wear it as a swimsuit.

i also really respect - as a fellow ex-mormon - that she doesn’t shy away from saying that the church fucked her up. i like that she calls out specific behaviors and dialogues and people who told her the wrong things. i’m impressed she does it with as much gentleness and dignity as she does.

I respect her so much. She has some very biting things to say about purity culture in general and it is wonderful.

Keep fucking rocking, Elizabeth Smart! That’s all I’ve got. I have no snark or cynicism to give. Just keep being an amazing human being.

What’s better, make him a felon and throw him in jail for a few years, have him come out and most likely be unable to find a reasonable job? Then we’ll complain he and other low-earners are hurting the economy. Seems like we can stop this cycle by forgiving 17 year olds who made a very idiotic—that ultimately would be…

“Maricopa County”

69 counts of indecent exposure? Nice.

I think kids deserve a second chance, but offering them the military or jail is unacceptable. There’s no choice there. A second chance is about rehabilitation and decreasing recidivism. It should not manifest as what is basically tantamount to forced conscription.

By all means, please accept mentally unstable men and women with criminal histories into the military and then train them to kill. That’s a super great idea that has no chance of backfiring.

I’d take Trump over Cruz any day of the week.

That’s horrible. That poor young woman. =( At least that your BFF isn’t married to that guy any longer... I couldn’t live with someone who has that mentality, especially toward their own children. Disgusting.

Yes, that smugness is so irritating and incredibly common.

Same! I was one of those “Well, only in rape or incest or life of the mother...” assholes when I was young. It was once I had my daughter that I re-evaluated my stance. I would never want her to think she is obligated to have a child if she doesn’t want to. Some people treat it as if it’s some sort of punishment for…

Amen. As a non-uterus haver, I’ve been pro-choice, but watching my wife go through pregnancy with twins and then with another, there is no way to justify forcing someone to go through that process against their will.

“I felt so cared for, and so respected.”

I just want to commend you for your commitment to journalism before I read this.

Dammit, I came here hoping for a Mariah Carey-esque tour rider. Bernie doesn’t like busy patterns. He also wants 20 white kittens and 100 white doves to be released when he goes on stage for the debate.

“I sure hope — we’re in Bernie Sanders’ backyard here in New Hampshire — I sure hope he intends to show up in his neighboring state”...“There is nothing worse than a debate about debates.”

I can just imagine him getting online and smashing other people and just laughing to himself “Dont fuck with the potus.”
