I don’t like flying, okay?
I hear you. Reading this is like getting a letter from the moon.
Tell me again why I can’t choose to legally discriminate against Catholics? Can’t I morally object to their sick, disgusting lifestyle choice and refuse them employment, services, or housing?
I’m honestly most confused by the times she’s chosen to specify brands. When I go to the grocery store for bread and toilet paper, I know what brands I like and/or I get what’s on sale. Why specify “Wonderbread” and “Charmin” rather than writing “bread” and “TP” - especially when you’re cool with just writing…
I like Mel Brooks’ version: “Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you walk into an open sewer and die.”
I will admit to liking a handful of prison rape jokes, but only because nobody in them is actually ever raped. I still giggle over the dumb Leslie Nielsen one:
The issue is that it was tested on women first, and only later tested on men as carriers. So the verdict of people who are interested in punishing sexuality and uninterested in saving lives (e.g., the Southern Baptist Convention, the Catholic Church) didn’t care how many lives were actually saved, because all they saw…
I was in junior high in 1992/1993, and I swear to god we actually watched those Reader’s Digest “I am Joe’s _____” that later became infamous via Fight Club. All on one of those old filmstrip machines that would go whap whap whap for a while when the film was done if the instructor dozed off due to boredom. The only…
Oh, a Catholic.
I’ll never really get why sex workers aren’t celebrated as hard workers like stevedores, or valorized like professional athletes. Maybe something is just broken in the way I look at the world. All three are people who sell their bodies and have them used up and used out; the stevedores and pro athletes suffer…
I was thinking, “Isn’t she, like, ten years old or something?” I guess some of her movie earnings are going towards getting a fucking great education.
Neither, I think. It’s more along the lines of Nazis burning books so they can pretend contrary ideas never existed. Cosby was very important for a lot of comedic and television history in the US, and trying to pretend he wasn’t by deleting his work and references to it is, I think, ultimately not helpful. Those who…
And that’s why the entire student body of Columbine High School should have been charged with aiding and abetting, right?
Oh dear lord she has the exact same hair as my 73-year-old mother.
“The only thing I can do that anyone will give me money and attention for is having unprotected sex.”
This would cause me to never report being groped or grinded on. I’m willing to put someone through the hassle of misdemeanor charges. But the fallout from a felony conviction is so drastic that I’d be unwilling to, for example, get someone deported because they drunkenly grabbed my ass for five seconds.
