They never said your statement was a lie, but that you are a liar. A liar can say true things too. Misdirection is a classic technique of liars. Putting someone on the defense for something they never actually said.

I think the blue pill would only compound BAWS problems. We’re talking about viagra, right?

Do former British colonies count? Ya know, like India

Certainly the rapist has no shortage of tears in the photo, so crying isn't indicative of any actual empathy.

“During her testimony, she became very emotional and cried. You could just see something different in her when she started talking about the rape and when it happened,” said Speaks.

Hey, remember that the one person at the center of all this is a man who left his fiancée and the mother of his child for the 16-year-old little sister of said fiancée’s close friend. When he was 24.

the onus here is really on Tyga, not any of the women in his life. he’s a coward and a pedophile.

Trevor Noah didn’t tell her how to react. He was floored, and I was too, that she confronted him with all of his hateful tweets and let the whole thing go with an “did I do that? Oh, excuse me,” then moved on like it never happened.

I think it’s fair to criticize Kelly (and lots of other journalists) for treating Trump with kid gloves. He’s an idiot with dangerous, constantly shifting policies, and he should be called to account for them. It’s not fair to tell her how she has to react to the way Donald Trump has treated her.

If I had to wear corsets and high collars all day, couldn’t get an education, had to go to church all the time, and couldn’t do anything unless a man approved it, you can bet I’d be poisoning people left and right.

You have to go on the costume designer’s blog : terrydresbach . com She shows so many close ups of pretty fabric!

OKAY SO I texted my mom who is a doctor about this issue.

In a society that vilifies people for being overweight; addicted to drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, gambling, or overspending; or for committing crimes- we sure do seem to rationalize and justify cheating as being a “biological drive”.

Agreed. If you don’t like the terms - don’t agree with them! Or at least, if you really want to violate them that much, call your partner and end it first. It won’t be as easy as cheating and never telling them, but only selfish, shitty people do that.

This, more than anything else, has convinced me I need to start watching Outlander.

You don’t get to own someone’s body, no matter how poor they were in life. That doesn’t seem all that complicated.

There’s a Derek Jacobi show from the ‘90s called Cadfael. It’s about a crusader-turned-monk set in the 1100s. He’s an herbalist, too, and uses his knowledge of plants to help solve the murders that happen in every episode. It’s basically a detective series. It’s awesome.

Anyway, one episode is all about how some jerk…

If you can't smell your bay leaves, throw them out and buy new/better ones.

A major takeaway here is how international companies not only turn a blind eye to graft in sub Saharan Africa, but benefit greatly from it and often fuel it. We always hear about glutinous and corrupt African politicians and bureaucrats but we don’t hear enough about how big business encourages corruption and then…

I hate that they had to feel the indignity of being singled out because of their skin color. I hate they will have to have that memory of anger for being treated as less than. I hate that the only thing I can offer are my condolences and my own story of being treated differently because of the color of my skin. I hate…
