Because not everyone's kink involves a power dynamic, and so the terms sub or Domme don't always apply. Saying "kinky" or "kinkster" just seems to be the general term everyone lands on. They're not my favorite words, either, but they're commonly understood and short. "I'm turned on by something that isn't widely…

Does anybody actually do anything productive here or is it pretty much just this kind of shit all day every day?

Right? I'm as liberal as they come but if someone published my random, not for for consumption comments and remarks, I would be a lot more like Bristol than Chelsea (minus the "liberal media" BS of course). Fuck is my favorite word.

Here's the thing. In my experience, I NEVER, literally NEVER see men casually greet each other on the street unless they know each other. These men are throwing out seemingly harmless greetings in hopes you will turn and want to talk. Or they may just want a smile. Sorr,y but I only smile when I feel smiley, not…

Yes .. Muslin Terrorists are controlled by Satin.

As a seamstress, my greatest fear is a Muslin Terrorist.

Dude are you familiar with how the Supreme Court works? It's not like they issue a ruling, and we all go, wow, that's interesting. They issue a ruling and it affects how the law is interpreted and complied with at every level. They are the final word. All they DO is governmental policy. That's it. Were you sick that…

This makes me laugh (so as not to cry): You'll understand one day when you are no longer fertile and it no longer is a danger you personally will face.

My dad: "I can't watch Stephen Colbert because he's so full of himself. He thinks he's so funny."

AEI - Women being concerned about the unlikely probability that they are drugged is a bad thing.

Right?! Like, MRSA and other antibiotic resistant infections, influenza, etc. are way easier to catch and transmit than Ebola. Are nurses never supposed to leave their house because they've been around a highly infectious disease? And the reason she left is none of our fucking business, either. She followed the…

Just out of curiosity, did he ever explain why he singled out "women nurses"? Does he still think that it is an all female profession, or am I unaware of some difference in what male and female nurses are doing to fight Ebola?

He'd better be careful – insisting that women and mothers have an innate understanding of illness and public health is one slippery slope away to thinking women are capable of exercising reproductive autonomy.

This is where the use of female (female nurses) is appropriate, but they went with "women nurses" to fit their "war on women" narrative. Want to know what is really a war on female nurses? The restriction of their access to healthcare and the lowered payment allocated to their profession due to it being a traditional…

HOLY SHIT WOW THANKS RANDOM MAN FOR EXPLAINING THAT TO US! WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT, BEING WOMEN EXISTING IN A PUBLIC SPACE FOR OUR ADULT LIVES, OF JUST TELLING THE MAN TO LEAVE US ALONE? I AM SO GLAD A MAN CAME INTO OUR CONVERSATION AND EXPLAINED TO US HOW BEST TO BE A WOMAN IN PUBLIC BECAUSE IT WOULD NEVER HAVE…

How does a dog receiving care in Spain have a single thing to do with something happening on the ground in Africa? Also, do you realize that compassion often isn't a limited resource; I can feel shitty about the dog and shitty about people dying in Africa AT THE SAME TIME.

Considering that she contracted this disease while risking her life to care for a patient, I'm glad they aren't just immediately killing this poor woman's dog. She is already in a horrifying situation, and she doesn't need to hear "Also, we had to kill your dog" on top of this. If my pet were killed because of my…

Note to self: Before signing over DPOA to someone, make sure that said person is ok with me receiving narcotics so that I'm not thrashing around and screaming "mama, mama" from the pain of dying. Also, I will make sure that the person I give DPOA to doesn't think that it's impossible for doctors to adjust the levels…

I've worked with animals quarantined for possible rabies numerous times. During the high risk period of quarantine, you just don't touch them...you can feed and clean up after an animal without laying hands on them. No touching = no bite risk.

Breach of protocol or not, she put herself in harm's way to care for this man and do her job. She's a hero in my book and I hope she makes a full recovery.
