Marriage isn’t “just a fucking word”. It’s a legal status with fairly extensive implications in healthcare, tax, child custody, inheritance, property ownership, civil and criminal legal cases, pensions etc. Marriage doesn’t protect spouses from cheating or leaving, sure, but that’s a massively different thing from…

And one of the reasons you are still with your partner is because she also doesn’t want to get married. If marriage were important to her, you likely would have lost her - and that’s fine! It is truly okay to value your beliefs above your partner! In the end, every couple faces compromises, and a couple’s staying…

If you don’t really care about getting married, then of course you aren’t going to want to do it because the whole process is stressful as hell and costs a ton of money. That doesn’t mean that you are strongly AGAINST marriage. If the other person’s desire to get married overcomes your general apathy (which sounds…

NBC= No Black Champions?

Officers singled out Al-Matar allegedly because of her “suspicious behavior”, which included “walking at a brisk pace, in a determined manner.”

I’d rather vote Zapp than Trump.

The vast majority of people in the military do not serve in combat roles. The nature of war and warfighting is increasingly being fought in cyberspace. There will be no conscription of women into combat roles. I’m not surprised Hunter only acknowledges the combat side of war because he was an artillery officer.

I’ve lost two jobs solely based on the reporting of my case.

I blame the English language. It’s not Natasha’s fault that “All you can eat” can be singular or plural (and boo to Denny’s for taking advantage of the ambiguity). This wouldn’t have happened in Shakespeare’s day. When the tavern had an “All thou canst eat” special, everybody knew it only meant thee, not thy whole…
