I mean, it’s mostly internal

It’s actually how it works in many states, believe it or not. Rather than deal with chronic underfunding, the counties bill the parents for the costs of dealing with the situation, whatever it might be, on the rationale that it’s all their fault. Yet another way the system penalizes poor families.

Hey bros, look at all this weed I bought from this super cool upperclassman I know! He told me “Oregano” was this awesome new strain of dope. I can’t wait to try it! Let’s wait till our parents leave and go carve an apple we can smoke it out of.

After having my own kids get rung through the system for something that happened to them I am VERY wary of social services. My kids were the victims in this scenario and yet we had these people in our lives multiple times a week making both of our kids miserable in a way that I didn’t know was possible. My daughter…

Yes, but that is how the system is set up, see what I’m saying? We are not immune to white supremacist ideas about Black families.

Taken into care for slipping out of the house while mom was in the bathroom? What the hell? I’m pretty sure this happens to like, 75% of parents at some point or another, excluding those rich enough to afford round the clock nannies. I babysat kids in the summers while their moms worked when I was in high school , and…

This is infuriating. Especially because the foster care system is hard on children. It’s hard on children who actually should be in it because they legitimately come from a dangerous household, and it’s a whole other level of hard on children who shouldn’t have been removed in the first place. No one wins in the…

I get what you’re saying. Beyonce skin tones varies wildly different depending on the picture. That said her wax figures wig look a crime. It’s like they bought a $20 store wig and called it a day.

oh man. That looks like LeAnn Rimes!

If only I could remove the hot takes from random white women about Beyonce’s pregnancy and (Beyonce in general) as easily

R.I.P. Mariah Ora, we barely knew ya.

I thought it kinda looked like Mariah Carey?

I understand that. But to reiterate, your solution to forcing women to wear something is to force them to not? That’s different how?

Meh. Anyway, the security issue here is moot. As the article states, the woman carries an ID that shows her face, and always unveils when asked for security purposes. The security at the school weren’t the ones who told her she had to leave. It was when she was meeting her daughter’s teachers and other parents that…

How is it possible to ban hoodies in a country that rejects umbrellas? Is the British stance: if you can’t survive soaking wet for 5 months you don’t deserve to live.?

I appreciate your knowledge (as always) but we’ll have to agree to disagree about the appropriateness of blanket clothing bans.

Will never understand this. “No one should be telling women what to wear! AHA let’s make a rule telling them what they can’t wear!”

Jesus. I was about to post that Trump apparently thinks the Attorney General’s only job is to investigate the President, but this is far more disturbing.

There are so many nice nuggets of WTF, but this was a delight- “Plus, it’s the 100th year of the First World War.” Like, I know what he meant, but it’s pretty funny.

$12 life insurance is a thing, for a 21 year old.
