I imagine that if we ever use the draft again, it’ll have to be universal regarding gender. We weren’t even drafting women last time we did it, so quite a change.

OH I agree, we NEED universal healthcare, how can we progress as a nation if we won’t even take care of it’s citizens? It seems to me though, if you ARE part of these religions that are against contraceptives, they probably wouldn’t even ask for them to begin with, so having an option to opt out of them if they don’t…

It pisses me off that there’s a ceremony to take that shit down. Just take it down, put it in the museum, move on. The Confederacy was traitorous and they lost the war, you goddamned morons.

I’m a family law attorney, and my office has been up in arms about this all week.

Now we’re incarcerating children because of their parents’ behavior? WTF is this world that I am living in?

They had a ban on dancing. A ban on dancing. American Taliban.

Jesus never said anything about gay people at all.

Dude...no. You can’t have zero respect for other people’s rights and expect those people you disrespect to respect your “right” to be a bigot.

On one hand, fuck this guy. Fire him if he doesn’t want to do his job.

“I’ve never cried over fireworks before but when they went off in Liberty I had a change of heart,” Davis said. “The part of our national anthem that talks about the bombs bursting in air and how our flag was still there made me think of how those men and women were persecuted (during the American Revolution) and…

Yep, totally agree! This post was more to kind of address the anal retentiveness that some people can develop with tracking calories. It’s important to know how much you’re taking in on a daily basis for weight management, but it’s just as important to avoid striving for perfection with it—just as long as you are close…

It is a shame that so many will take this as “OH WELL I KNEW TRACKING CALORIES WAS POINTLESS!!!!”

Sanders 2016!!!!

Right? He can be very funny and cute but there’s a distinct thread of... kinda immature, smug humour there too. I know everyone Tweets something stupid from time to time but all his slip ups had a similar “punching down” flavour, targeting women or fat people, which doesn’t bode well. I dunno, he just seems a bit…

I know she didn’t want it but sometimes, damn it, we all have to do things we don’t want to for the good of the many.

I agree that we’re better off than most developing countries, but we’re not better off in many ways than many Westernized 1st world countries.

OMFG thank you. I spent 13-ish years, including the bulk of my childhood and adolescence, in the States. Was it good? Yes. However, I am white, middle-class, and from a blue state. Your mileage may certainly vary if your circumstances are different than mine.

I’m always a bit perplexed when people act like America is the only place where freedom exists. Like, do people think that there aren’t other places where you can openly criticize your government and where you can own property and vote and go to school and have a career and stuff?? Cuz probably like 200 countries have…

I myself am struggling to think of something sexier for a guy to say to me about his butt.

But that's the thing...it is a sexy thing to say!
