I get what you’re saying. It’s along the same lines of why most suicides are no longer reported in the news.

You can’t control a Sex Ba-Bomb.

“We cannot be out there going ya-ya-ya there [Ed note:He means protesting] and then when it comes to young brothers killing themselves, then mum’s the word,” he’s said. “No one’s saying nothing? You can’t ignore that we are killing ourselves, too.” Who exactly is ignoring it?

I use them too. Context, though. If I’m saying “my boyfriend and I are banging” it’s didn’t than “he’s banging me.” I’m not a passive actor in the banging! Look, you don’t object to it, I find it icky...move along.

In the context of that sentence it sounds sexually aggressive and dominant to me. Like he’s the one doing the act and the women are being acted upon, as opposed to a mutually enjoyable act.

Of course. I’m talking about the difference between feminists and non-feminists.

I agree with you here but I think a guy who refers to sex as “banging” and women “chicks” is trying to get across a certain message and it’s not “I enjoy enthusiastic consensual sex with women whom I respect as political, social, and sexual equals.”

Dude’s Twitter bio says “I bang chicks for a living.” Who believed he was a feminist??

He might’ve been, you don’t know that. And historically planned parenthood and similar clinics are attacked by Christians so it’s not an unsafe bet.

My best friend is a local news director. He is constantly in awe of the things viewers have the time and will to complain about.

If only he’d said that God told him to protest the run, he’d have been totally protected! At least that’s what Westboro Baptist Church and their legion of copycats have taught me about free speech.

I was JUST about to post this. I want to eat it.

Can we bring back Photoshop of Horrors for this picture of Oprah? Because her head is about to roll right off.

On the bright side, Salt Lake City, UT just elected their first gay mayor.

I wish you had posted this yesterday. A few of my friends didn’t vote because they just didn’t realize it was election day. The non-presidential elections just don’t get the media coverage they deserve so people literally forget to go vote. I almost forgot and I am a rabid dog when it comes to voting.

I just sat at my voting booth with my phone out researching everyone one/thing until I felt satisfied and then voted. There’s no rush at the booth, thankfully. Alternatively, you can get a mail-in ballot and sit at home and research while you vote then mail that sucker in.

I feel a certain kinship with you

I was raised Southern Baptist. We didn’t tell ghost stories around the campfire growing up. We told possession stories. And we believed in them because demons are biblical. I remember having lively debates with my friends about the biblical case for demons and how not believing in them means you don’t believe…
