I’m not trolling at all. I’m not sure in what way issuing licenses or passports could be considered a health reason for listing sex on a birth certificate (nor why sex needs to be listed on any photo ID at all, for that matter).

When are birth certificates used to dictate health treatments?

Listen, “if you don’t want to get punched in the balls, don’t touch women when they don’t want you to” is a good rule of thumb for life. As someone who has both acted like an asshole and been punched in the balls for it, I’ll give this a pass. It sure as hell taught me a lesson.

No.

As a ball-haver, I’ll say this. Getting hit in the balls is awful. But if men are going to be bigger and stronger (generally, there are a lot of women that could kick my ass in a fair fight) then women absolutely should go after the balls when threatened. I taught my sister that, I taught my nieces that, and it’s the…

I’m sorry, having your friends laugh at you being routinely groped and so feeling like the best you can do is laugh along is “putting up a front you can’t maintain”? Fuck that. You grab me, you get what you get.

Yes it’s so infuriating that ball-kicking is considered OFF LIMITS. If men don’t want to be kicked in the balls, maybe they should stop ASKING FOR IT by doing fucked-up shit that makes you have to kick them in the balls!

This is so good. And mirrors so much of what I feel. Hopeless and angry and just so fucking full of rage at the class of men that I don’t know what to do with myself.

These controversies are so weird. I don’t know that I will/would choose to kiss my kids on the mouth, but my parents kissed me on the mouth WELL past this kid’s age, and I’m fi— OK, I’m not fine, but I’m *truly* sure that that had nothing to do with it.

More like Slaytanists!!!!

That feeling when a ressurected Jesus Christ would get along better with Satanists than a good 95 percent of his own flock.

This is from the “Jill Stein challenges an election even though nothing will change for her but it might actually benefit others” playbook, and I am HERE FOR IT. Hope there’s more like this.

jeebus, my brother moved out near short pump and i go out there over xmas, and the place is insane!

Right? I live in Richmond and lived in Carytown for 8 years. We were genersally most annoyed by the white people coming in from Short Pump who couldn’t park, not random black dudes looking for cheese.

I think they were mostly sticking around to figure out why there was nobody working there.

This isn’t even a very large CVS. I honestly have no idea how one could spend 30-40 minutes inside of it. In addition, there are a couple other 24-hour stores within a couple blocks that they could have gone to if the cheese pull was really that strong.

Rachel, a correction: There is no Carytown, Virginia. This happened in the Carytown NEIGHBORHOOD of Richmond, VA. I grew up in that neighborhood.

This is the right wing, in a nutshell. I’m so sick and tired of hearing how they give a fuck about the people of this country and how it’s the evil elites on the left who are the real villians. The right care about power, holding power and using it to fuck over as many people as possible before they lose it. Fuck…

I should have read further down in the comments! I just wrote a long description about the episode hoping it would trigger someone’s memory about which podcast it was on.

There is also a pro publica story about it that is a little more in depth, I think.
