Well, he must be relieved that he can now ditch his “jury-friendly nerd” costume and return to his original “lax bro” look.

Springtime for Hitler and Germany!

And how is the banana costume the most expensive?

I’m just over here wondering what kid tells their parents, “Mom, Dad, I want to be a banana this Halloween!”

Well, good for Target. It really isn’t difficult to include a variety of people of different sizes, shades, and abilities. That mostly doesn’t happen, though, so good for Target.

This is wonderful. I have a friend whose daughter has the CMV virus, which she contracted shortly after birth and which has led to multiple health issues including seizures; speech, vision, and hearing impairments; neurological deficits and developmental delays; and issues with coordination.

He really laid down the law when lable flacks kept trying to suck…

That would actually make sense. But it would defeat the purpose of rape culture, which is to keep women scared and marginalized.

“sexy” and “Trump” cannot be used in the same sentence.

Obligatory women’s health nurse post.

My pleasure!
