On an entirely selfish note, as a millennial, it is in my best interest for all DACA recipients to be allowed to stay and become citizens. My generation needs as many working adults paying into social security as possible once the baby boomers all retire. Economically it makes sense to help them stay. The idea of…

It makes sense. Boys and girls sizing is essentially the same when they are children. There is not really a reason to have separate sections for things such as “girls shirts” and “boys shirts.” You could easily organize a children’s section by theme. I’m thinking dinosaurs, sports, space, princess, cartoon themes…

The article makes a good point about lost resources. Losing transgender military personnel would mean losing all the time and money that went into their training and the experience they have from their time in service. Assuming any kicked out soldiers would remain eligible for veterans benefits, losing them could be…

As someone who just got married, I can definitely say the dress can be a big part of a wedding budget for some brides. My dress was under a thousand, and if it hadn’t come in, I wouldn’t have been able to afford to replace it. It wouldn’t have been an emergency, but I would have been deeply disappointed. (I would…

If a country does eventually move to legalize a form of plural marriage, they will probably need to release immediately guidelines on related legal matters. I would imagine, that they could just modify existing marriage laws.

Well, maybe the store can make back its losses selling some kind of peahen merchandise.

I’m sure they will do a wonderful job of regurgitating food for their chick.

Yay Steve Adler. I’m really looking forward to seeing Wonder Woman at the Alamo Draft house. I bought my tickets before they announced the women only screenings but it sounds like its going to be awesome.

Do you get to pet them, or do they just run around and act rodenty?

People, especially when their on vacation or on an outing to a touristy spot, tend to forget that they are still interacting with nature. I ran into this a lot when I worked at a resort near a national park in Colorado. Elk would come down from the mountains for their mating season and wander around the grounds. …

I’m surprised they kept the playset on the white house grounds so long. The Obama girls must have outgrown it years ago. Were visiting children or the children of white house staffers also using it? That would explain keeping it around.

I’m ok with these becoming fashionable. Then all my favorite worn out shoes will be in style.

It sounds like the UK needs to start training more specialists and staff to meet the need. Doctors who write the initial referrals for gender identity clinics should probably also talk to their patents about what resources they can access while waiting, such as support groups, counseling for stress ect...
