So I am going to need some kind of Kardashian to English translation on most of this.

They would have found a way to diminish her no matter the circumstances

He’ll just build a seawall. And France will pay for it.

Reince should txt him to say, “Congratulations, I’ll pray for your child.”

Maya Rudolph is perfect.

This should be the first post in every article of police brutality in ANY country.

Goddammit, cops. Sir Robert Peel figured this shit out in the 1820's. Get your heads out of your asses, police departments. Remember who and what police officers are supposed to be and do.

Peel’s 9 Principles of Policing

Tender sex as a MO gets on my last nerve. It’s ok sometimes, but other times you might want to get a little boisterous. Rough even. And when you growl, “Spank me,” and your tender lover goes wide-eyed and whispers, “I could never cause you pain,” that’s when you know this just isn’t going to work.

I’m a boring ‘ol married person, so these questions (one hopes) no longer pertain to me, but I’ve often wondered, in these days of long-acting birth control, if the young ladies still require their dates to use condoms, every time?

I’m glad some other peeps are talking about the COMPLETE lack of appearance freedom you have when you are not a freelance writer. If you work at typically most American corporate jobs,etc., are married, occupy any group social activities involving religious groups, etc. you better toe the appearance line. Or you will…
