Well, to be fair, I’m not sure Melania can actually move her face any more. 45 is just an asshole. Read more

I saw that tweet and I was thinking, “DO NOT FUCK UP MY CURRENT BENEFITS, YOU FAT FUCK!” Read more

In my experience, it’s the ‘willpower fallacy’. Drug addicts and mentally ill people are ‘weak’. It’s the same disgust people have for the poor and the different. Especially because they want to believe they would never be in that position, because they are ‘better’. Read more

no crucifixion here. I agree that many people are disturbed by the idea of abortion, which they have a right to be. They just don’t have a right to impose their personal morality on others, that’s all, and most people who aren’t fans of abortion do live and let live - and often, when placed in a tough spot themselves,… Read more

This. Like, I draw my line at fucking with someone else’s grief. You do that? All bets are off. As they say “I don’t condone it...but I understand it.” And, as someone who had a sibling die tragically fairly recently and then people on the internet who didn’t really know him talking shit about him, when I say I… Read more

No crucifying coming from me, I promise!

Ok, so having said that, I would just like to say that I have yet to hear from anyone who “likes” abortion; that is, I’ve never heard of anyone who think it’s something that *should* happen, just something that does. However, there are plenty of us who are morally ok with it,… Read more

I would like to borrow a toddler and go back to that one and ask for some food for the kid and see what happens. I know just the little maniac for the job, too.

I think people ask in order to keep order in their universe. Nothing freaks people out and makes them face their mortality faster than hearing a vegetarian jogger dropped dead of a heart attack, or a person who didn’t smoke died of lung cancer. Some people want the cause and effect in order to feel okay. They don’t… Read more

Or how about in liberal areas like mine where there are ZERO CPCs and just our local PP (where all of my friends have gone for BC, STI screenings, and one who got treatment for pre cancerous polyps on her cervyx who is currently 25 weeks pregnant 10 years later, woohoo!). What then? I was an idiot kid who’s parents… Read more

Not going to crucify you, but if you think about it for half a second, abortion being *legal* is not the same as it being *legal and accessible*, and it is not the latter for too many women - by design of anti-abortion advocates who keep doing all they can to make it as inaccessible as possible, especially for the… Read more

There are a few things I would risk jail for; securing reproductive freedom for women is one of them. Read more

I read the wife thing more as an issue because he’s never even met her, while obviously Scott knew him and his sister personally. If Scott was a decent person, he would have called himself to offer condolences while refraining from being an asshole in interviews. Since he chose to be an ass instead, the next best… Read more

I’m not going to crucify you. I don’t think there’s many women that are excited to get an abortion. I do think that’s a straw man. It’s a medical procedure, just like I wasn’t excited to get my tonsils out Read more

Refer her to Susan Collins, Republican senator of Maine, who opposes shutting down Planned Parenthood precisely because there are not enough community clinics to take over that workload here in Maine. It is surely the same dire situation in many poorer and more rural states. Read more

I want that ridiculous-long-ass tie to get caught up in that wheelchair’s mechanism and enjoy what happens when Vet Dude takes off.

Yeah, Missing-Leg-Guy doesn’t look remotely proud of that monkey on his back. He just looks glad to be alive.

Right? A one time bag of clothes (used, in my area) maybe a can of formula if they have it and diapers once is not some major saving grace. Read more

I’ve literally never heard about those places giving freebies. And anyways unless they give food, shelter and money, they’re not helping anyone.

God, he is such an embarrassment on every front. I’m mystified at how he got to be a figure in media considering he has no idea how to talk to another human.

How do these rich, powerful lap-of-luxury fucks manage to look tenser and unhappier than missing-leg guy and his wife?
