    I lived in Des Moines for a couple years and have family around the state and despite the current republican governor, it’s actually a pretty liberal state and has gotten even more so in the last decade. Of course you’re going to find staunchly conservative populations in rural areas but that’s true of many states. my

    What does it the fact that this happened in Iowa have to do with it? Did you not see the part where it says it violates Iowa’s gender discrimination laws? Why do you assume then that Iowans would support transphobia and racism?

    First, Let’s not forget Iowa has had same sex marriage since 2008 so shut your ignorant mouth. And Iowa does not pick the president just because they have the first caucus, in principle all states pick the president. If we want to get technical really Florida picks the president which is such a horrifying realty it's

    I don’t know my aunt has a mole on her face. She’s had it removed...twice. It keeps growing back. Idk I think there’s something deeply disturbing about that, but I guess like Miley Cyrus some moles can't be tamed.

    Actually half of Kansas City is in Kansas the other half is in Missouri, yes it's confusing. It's confusing to everyone including residents

    O thank god someone said it. I was going to say ‘when will the Brits get crest white strips’ but I was afraid id by accused of trolling by an angry yellowed toothed mob. But let’s get real teeth that large need some extra maintenance.

    That’s true but that was taken the night before, not the morning he died. And while it’s not the classiest thing to do it certainly doesn’t mean she’s in anyway resonsible or had any idea that his life was at risk. She probably saw clients take drugs and pass out all the time, it comes with the job. I mean I’ve taken

    That’s actual not quite true. She did not rob him. When she left early the next morning he was still breathing and laying in bed. She thought nothing of it, she thought he was just asleep. She said he did snort large amounts of coke the night before, and acted very erratically. They didn’t actually even have sex

    Does anyone else think national pink out day is funny. Like ‘ step right up and get your pinks out ladies were tested them for the stds’ hehehe I love PP.

    Me too! Now I’m sitting here with greasy long ass hair and I don’t know what to do with it when it’s down except stare at the split ends. I wonder what’s worse for you a top knot, or staring at my split ends til my eyes cross. Back to the top knot it goes...

    I totally agree it’s especially shocking to see if you’re from the north. However it’s crazy how the civil war is viewed so differently between the north and the south. In the north it was all about freeing the slaves( even tho there were several other issues at play and prob most of those union solders were as racist

    I’ve noticed that myself. It wasn’t always like that of course there was a lot of German denial when photos and details of concentration camps came out. But I think that’s understandable, as nothing like that to that degree with such purpose had ever happened or been recorded in so much detail before. I can only

    Honey my grandfather was in Okinawa, and I’m telling you japan was NOT about to surrender. Were they on their last leg? Absolutely. Most countries would have surrendered loonnnng before. But But the Japanese army is not the surrendering kind. For you to sit here and as spit out shit you read in some crappy article on

    Yea I remember learning a ton about WWII throughout all my schooling. I learned about Japanese internment camps, pearl habor, the atomic bombs, nazis and the holocaust in 5th grade. I went to a regular public school Iowa. I think people aren't remembering all of their history lessons clearly.

    O the mommy guilt. Don’t worry your kids are normal, first borns often do better academically than the 2nd. Growing up my older brother was such a perfect easy child. I on the other hand was ...difficult. Stubborn and low tolerance for any kind of discomfort with a few tantrums thrown in there. My mom recently

    I really hate the total abstinence of everything attitude that is so pervasive in the United States around pregnancy. I feel it comes from this idea that women can’t be trusted to make decisions as if we’re children ourselves.Drinking in moderation during pregnancy is totally fine ( if it wasn’t most children born in

    Anyone else surprised Matt Damon didn’t interrupt with a ‘imma let you finish Viola but I’m the biggest Hollywood diversity expert of alllll time!”

    I'd loveeee to see what their policy on vasectomies is...

    Dude-I get where you're going with this and certainly classim is a serious issue. But are really...really sitting here as a white male and saying people NEED to realize that sexism and racism are not the biggest issues? I mean, wow how easy for you to say as someone who has not for 1 second experienced life as a black

    Yea I was thinking that, but what so strange is the two babies look identical wth which really throws me off? Even stranger is,again low income black neighborhood, and the babies have hats on backward, plus it’s facing a organization that runs a youth workforce development program for gang and court and involved
