Considering both of the cases cited her and Biden’s order allow for options to not get vaccinated (exemptions and testing in lieu of vaccination) it would seem these lawsuits have zero merit. 

Oh, this would be awesome. There’s a guy in Tulsa who has shot and killed people who broke into his home twice. And said he would do it again, eagerly. Seriously, the guy has no remorse for taking a life (his life was not overtly threatened, they had no weapons he could see, and were just there.) Now, I’m not against…

What Malcire said, but also, the longest thread on that post is actually about politics and why “conservative” has taken on a sinister meaning rather than just being the opposite of “progressive.”

While there are a few things they have done that are just bad decisions, I agree that it was inevitable that the first year, at least, would be rocky because of the 4 years before that. It would have been rocky in normal times, but we also have a pandemic, so that just makes it worse. They’re having to do some major…

You can’t equate Bobert and AOC. AOC wants to do radical things that help other people. Bobert wants to do radical things that hurt most people. “Radical” is not always bad. If radical is for the greater good, then it can be good (assuming you don’t hurt people on the way to the greater good.) It’s when radical is…

The problem is that you think that pro-choice and “pro-life” are comparable. One leaves the choice to the people involved, the other takes choice away (and stops caring once the pregnancy is completed.) One takes no moral stance on abortion and the other wants to legislate morality. (And, in this case, religion,…

These days, “conservative” equals “anti-lgbtq+, sexist, racist, and all-around selfish and hateful.” So, yeah, I have issues if someone is that kind of conservative (which is the kind that the vast majority of articles on this site rail against, not just fiscally conservative or someting.)

Came here to recommend this. It was really good. I went to a Chippendale’s show when I was 21 or 22 (I have a picture of me with two very tall dancers) and thoroughly enjoyed it. That made it so much more interesting to learn all this about it.

My friend played against him last week (obviously earlier than that, it just aired last Wednesday.) She said he is really nice. 

I’d pull my kid right out of school and find a way to home school or some other kind of schooling, because fuck that. Especially if my kid was under 12. It’s not worth it. I know there is just absolutely no way for some people (and possibly for me if I had ever had kids, who knows) and that just makes it so much worse.

Is it not at all possible to you that a person may want to move from the House to the Senate in order to have the ability to do even more good than they were able to do in the House? Or, is all upward movement considered pure personal ambition to you? Would working for a non-profit as a peon and want to eventually be…

That’s because he’s a man and he’s not allowed to cry. Unfortunately, the same patriarchy that says men aren’t allowed to cry assume that any time a woman cries anywhere but in her bedroom alone (or in the bathroom at work) is doing it to get sympathy and not actually moved to tears, which isn’t as hard for us because…

Abstaining from voting on something that her no vote would not have changed in order to get to the Senate where she can do more good than she can in the House is not necessarily about power. I mean, every politician, no matter how much they care, wants power a little bit, but that doesn’t mean they are all power…

I’m OK with her abstaining based on wanting to move to the Senate because a) a no vote from her wasn’t going to change things and b) she can do even more in the Senate than she can in the House and it shows she’s looking toward the future and what she can do to help put things right.

Here’s the thing: There’s no such thing as the rapture or anything like it under a different name in the bible. There is one place where it mentions the 144,000 being taken up, but many bible scholars believe those will be Jews. And, even if they were Christians, that’s a drop in the bucket of the number of people who…

The underwear commercials pretty much have a camera slowly going up the body of a woman wearing the underwear and on her side. (There is a possibility that the women in these ads are also celebrities. I’m a little out of touch and sometimes I know names but not faces. They could also be just unknown models or…

If I thought someone was in my house, I would a) not go looking for them and b) not holler out so they could know exactly where I am. I’ll lock the door of the room I’m in and call 911. (Now, if I had cats, I might go look to see if it was them. If I lived in a small house, I might look if I was armed--even with just…

I was slightly disappointed there was no murder that an actual killer confessed to in a note on a doll in the wall.

As a gray, this is exactly how I feel. Someone might see a piece of my comment or no one will see anything at all. It’s like I’m a ghost.

Me, too. And since I am gray on all but one site and Kinja won’t let anyone reply to most gray comments, stars are mostly all I get these days. :(
