I thought his name was pronounced Dead Mow Five?? I’m so embarrassed. I’m turning into my mother already.

Kid’s fine, by the way. Suck it, CDC.

Somehow the plastic is an effective barrier, but the thick layer of metal cannister that is an airplane fuselage isn’t?

Religion makes no fucking sense, man...

Also, if your religion prohibits you from interacting with literally half the people on the planet, your religion probably sucks.

The Court is NOT on Dr. Luke’s “side.” The Judge merely applied the law to the facts. As an attorney one of the hardest things to deal with are bad facts. They are what they are and we do our best to construe them most favorably to our clients but ultimately Judges have no discretion to choose a “side” they like. It’s…

In other fetal court news, the right to life types have been oddly (to my mind) out of the Iowa Supreme Court case involving Slipknot Bassist Paul Gray’s wife and (at the time of his passing) unborn child suing the doctor who overprescribed him pain pills. It probably is because the case has more to do with statutes…

I’m 100% pro-choice and here to tell you it’s time to let go of absurd ideas that a fetus past the 20 week stage is anything resembling an “unviable clump of cells”. Understanding pregnancy & science is not a bad thing.

I think it should be a stronger charge, invoking the denial of choice to carry the baby to term - it’s more than just removing an organ, because it’s the removal of the oppertunity of personhood and life. I’m very strongly pro-choice, but I think unwanted and forced abortion should be a charge of some kind of it’s…

I think you’re operating under the faulty assumption that if you tack as hard as you can to the most extreme position, it’ll help your cause instead of just making you look like an extremist. A 16 wk (or 22 wk) fetus surviving through huge technological intervention is not the same as a 36 wk baby surviving with…

The defendant’s boyfriend said he saw the baby take it’s final gasping breaths. I’m not sure if he’s being allowed to testify to it or not.

“A fetus is NOT viable unless it is detached from the umbilical cord.”

How far are you willing to take this line of reasoning? A seven-month-old fetus is not a clump of cells, it is basically a viable baby. Is the precedent so much more important to you than the facts that you would refuse to call anything inside the womb a baby, even if it’s days from delivery? I find it frustrating to…

animal cruelty? What the fuck is wrong with you?

I’m extremely pro-choice (and work in OB at a Catholic hospital, so... it’s a struggle), but I didn’t get the impression from the information in this write-up that we’re talking about a ball of unviable cells here. If we’re talking about like, a 25-week-old baby that should have gone to term, I don’t care what kind of…

What exactly is the implication of dressing like an alien?

So, what are you saying? That dressing up like an alien shouldn’t be kosher in South Africa? You wouldn’t have even noticed any racial element to these costumes if it wasn’t originally framed in a “Is this blackface?” context due to a shitty photo. So that is ENTIRELY being read into it by you. No, they were not…

It sounds oddly like you’re kiiind of saying that even though they are clearly dressed as aliens, actually this was still a bit racist. Please tell me that’s not the fucking case.

The amount of people reaching to incredible lengths to STILL classify these girls as racist is bizarre. Someone on this story said it’s racist because people in the past have said “I’m not racist, black, brown, purple,. I don’t care!”. What the hell is the motivation there? Weirdos.

I love how Jezebel left this photo out on purpose because it clearly shows the purple while the other are ambiguous. Stay classy, Jezebel.

So it’s pretty obvious from the new evidence in the linked article (i.e the undarkened photos) that this was indeed an honest mistake. It seems like maybe the title of this article should be reworded. Unless you meant it to be clickbait...ohhhh.
