This just proves what I’ve been telling people since I was a kid (being raised by a cat,) cats are trainable. They’re just as trainable as dogs. But first you have to train yourself. Because if you don’t, you’ll basically be training yourself to train the cat the way IT wants things to be, not the way you do. That’s

What the fuck is that thing in the picture? You’re Australian, aren’t you?

Welcome to being an opera fan of color! Come join us in the white-person-free back corner of the theater, where we try to ignore both the problems coming from the stage and the stares coming from the audience and ushers!

On the healthcare front (and life insurance,) I believe they already are. There have been suits, mostly surrounding the BRCA gene test for breast cancer, but I wouldn’t doubt at all that much of that testing is carried out by these same companies or their associated labs.

What...what was that song...something something....Oh, yes. GOD IS TRYING TO TELL YOU SOMETHING, GOD IS TRYING TO TELL YOU SOMETHING...MAYBE GOD IS TRYING TO TELL YOU SOMETHING RIGHT NOW.

Yep. “Can I touch your hair?” should always be answered with “can I grab your tits?” Nothing else quite gets across the concept of “this is an invasion, dumbass.”

This is so much the problem with all the people out there going “I’m not a racist but...” It’s like no. Maybe you don’t THINK you’re a racist...maybe you legitimately don’t KNOW you’re a racist...but let’s talk about both what you’ve just said and what we all know you’re about to say (and try to justify.) You listened

Right. But that’s part of what makes me...leery of this. Their base numbers sound right to me, but I don’t think they’re taking into account that “know” “interact with” “are acquainted with” and “are friends” do not necessarily intersect. Plenty of white people know plenty of POCs. Plenty of white people interact with

I guess “stew” as opposed to “pudding” would depend on how thick the person cooking made it. But yeah, I’m probably still too chicken to try it.

Is next week the end of the season? Or was it this week? I’m waiting for the ‘Wennas to kill Ossie.

So these myopic twits do realize that some of us like to celebrate Christmas without all the silly Santa crap, right? That there’s nothing wrong with wanting your kids to be happy about a gift from their parents and other relatives? That perhaps some of us think it’s a little more meaningful to give a gift to a loved

A dumpster full of tires on fire?

Oh, is that the blood pudding? I’ve always been too chicken to try that when I’ve been somewhere I’d have been able to.

Yeah, don’t ban it. Learn how to buy good cologne/perfume AND how to properly wear it. If you’re going to wear perfume, FOR THE LOVE OF GAWD DO NOT USE A LAUNDRY “RERFESHER?BOOSTER”.

They are never going to stop trying to make Amal Clooney, who dresses like that one semi-fashionable mom who voluntarily chaperoned your prom, happen.

You can be as nuts as you want with a toothbrush and not kill 26 people. This isn’t a mental health problem, this is a gun problem.

Why is/was Disney under the impression that we don’t/didn’t already know/think this?

Chinese? Ginkgo nuts and rock sugar sounds Chinese. I suppose I’m not surprised that there are (real not modern fusion) sweet congees.

Yes. My mom loves orange chicken (the old PF Chang’s recipe that apparently no one at the company now even remembers) and I was able to come up with a reasonable facsimile of it (because I also do a duck a l’orange with a brown rice, wild rice and almond pilaf, so I had a kind of head start) and white rice was just so
