I get my seasons mixed up because I watched them all at once, so I was upset Amir wasn’t hanging with Benjamina and Selasi. Then I remembered Nadia and Amir. I will never forget her saying she would rather give birth again than bake whatever challenge they had.

So same as with GBBO then?

On some level the Dems admittance that in some places of the country the only way they can win is by not supporting women’s rights is a reflection of the country and how little it’s progressed than anything else.

And she got her ass handed to her by J.K. Rowling earlier this week.

Solid troll comment.

Naw, Maxine and Nancy need to stay exactly where they are for as long as possible.

I know this is sort of way off point, but since when has “paddy wagon” been an OK thing to say again? Here in the U.K., that’s considered a slur on the Irish. I can’t imagine it plays so well in the States either...

Posted elsewhere, as well, but I’ve been thinking recently that at some point Trump is going to start believing this is true and woe be to Pence the day that happens.

Fortunately for her, he has to sell his business to keep his job.

Of course he did. Why would he waste time on a little non-event like the birth of his child when he could have a front-row seat to an aspiring fascist dictator indoctrinate children?

Jesus Christ. My ex missed the birth of our daughter because he was stuck in an airport in Ireland, en route from Afghanistan. That is a perfectly honorable and respectful reason to miss the birth of your child. Being absent due to service to the objectively worse US president, in terms of competency and pretty much…

I’m glad your dog wasn’t too badly hurt!

Plagiarizing myself from GT, because this story makes me so happy:

So this may be noble and whatnot but I don’t trust anything PETA says, does, or acts on. They’re horrible so until someone trustworthy talks out this, I’m not taking any shit they say on their word

That’s it; similar to the show Jack and Ozzy Osbourne are doing (touring historical sites while vamping on the father-son role reversal nature of their relationship). It genuinely looks like they love doing it and enjoy the adult father-son relationship. God knows they don’t need the cash (nor do the Lowes).

To everyone who screams about how awful socialized health care is, I like to remind them that Charlie Gard’s parents won’t face crushing debt for their son’s medical bills.

RIP Sweet Boy. You suffered way too long. May you find peace now.

On top of that, they made him a media spectacle and the financial and medical support required to keep him ‘alive’ could have been better used elsewhere, for other sick but recovering children.

Judging by today’s front page (no I won’t link to it), I fear that the Daily Mail has got its tentacles into the family and will soon run an exclusive interview that can be used to beat up on the NHS. That paper has a particular history of publishing especially harmful ‘health’ stories and using grieving relatives to…

Agreed. A friend of mine is an ICU nurse and was recently telling me about having to be the voice of reason to a daughter who was in denial that her mom’s stroke was unrecoverable. For three weeks mom was on tubes and wires and intubated and just about braindead. That is not a meaningful existence. If it were me…
