Thank you very much for this. I wish they would have included that in the article.

I have not. I will have to search that out - thanks for the recommendation.

This man is a hero. The courage it must take to be an outspoken and highly-visible abortion provider in this day and age, when you have seen your colleagues killed, and in the face of rabid anti-choice activists and legislation, is tremendous. I fervently wish for his continued safety.

Oh my God. That kid, so sweetly literal. I love how that coach/dad handles it. The hug and the expression on his face really are priceless.

I just cried watching that and remembering when we had a president who was intelligent, composed, gracious, and who believed in facts and a free press.

You’re very welcome. Sometimes we need some outside validation that what we are feeling is true and right. I certainly did with my ex. I loved him, but was so unhappy, and yet still convinced it was all my problem. Housekeeping was just one issue that we had, but it was so disheartening to clean up after a dinner…

Do you have the means to hire a cleaner? Because it sounds like he is unwilling to change. And, barring, some lobotomy, you will not ever be happy with that division of labor. That resentment won’t go away with the status quo. You deserve help and he needs to step up.

Right there with you. I re-watch that show way too often. It is so terribly amazing.

I divorced that man, too. Sometimes he would brag to me that he cleaned up after all the mess he made taking apart his bike. I just wanted to throttle him as I cooked, cleaned, vacuumed, scrubbed and did all the rest of the everyday household chores that affected the whole house, not just his little bike corner.

I, too, think this would have a good chance of a 6-2 ruling. Both Roberts and Kennedy lean conservative, but with a full-on constitutional question where the government hasn’t even provided anything that I think reaches a rational basis level of justification, I think both of them would feel pretty safe in playing…

I can’t bring myself to watch him speak. The quotes from him give me a ragestroke already. Hearing him actually say these things out loud would probably kill me.

I had that same thought. I double-checked my source, realized that it was a legitimate quote, and weeped for our nation.

I’m 34 years old, was with my ex for 12 years, and am 2 years out from the date that my ex and I separated. The divorce has been final for 1.5 years. It was very painful, even if it was more my decision, but I am feeling hopeful and happy for the first time in a long time. It took a lot of therapy to get out of…

I hope that you think it’s equally fucked up and heinous for Johnson not to tell them that he knew he was HIV positive. Because what he did was akin to a person loading all chambers of a gun when the other party thought they were playing Russian Roulette. I never said I thought they were smart to have unprotected…

Conceptually knowing there is a statistical risk and knowing that the person you are having an encounter with is, for a fact, HIV positive, are two entirely different things. Is it a good or smart idea to have unprotected sex with a stranger? No. But the burden here is on the one with the information who withholds…

Having a disease isn’t a crime. Knowingly exposing others to that disease without giving them the necessary information to make an informed decision to continue with the activity is.

Would you perhaps be Alaskan?

He is. Unfortunately, the Satanic Temple wouldn’t have standing to sue until the rule affects one of their members.

Exactly. My dad didn’t graduate from high school and my mom got her GED and got out early. Neither of them went to college (at least until the three of us were already out of the house, then they did community college because they wanted to better themselves and increase their earning potential). We were poor for a…

I live in PA now, so my vote did “count” this year, unfortunately just not enough. I have friends who are in Washington and Oregon who have that same line of thought - that they need to move to swing states and spread out the Dem population. It’s completely fucked that this tiny portion of voters can hold the…
