That tears it - I’m definitely not voting for Hunter.

Combined with the general disdain of the humanities. For many in the GOP base, the ego is wrapped up in being the biggest bully in the yard. Limited interest in examining the human condition and complexities of life.

I was just thinking about why works of artistic expression from conservatives are usually so terrible. I think (most) conservatives lack the empathy and genuine interest in the quirks of humanity to make compelling art. It comes out so flat and dull.

Don’t forget that the mifepristone lawsuit had similarly tenuous standing (in that it was brought by practitioners literally arguing a hypothetical case of women taking it and needing to get emergency care afterwards) and was successfully argued in Texas. That’s an even more apt example.

To be fair, it’s probably harder to find a small town in the south where someone HADN’T been lynched. When Alabama started putting out historical markers acknowledging where lynchings took place, it was wild.

Their experiences with being denied care are “tragic, but in the past,” a state attorney said.

Based off this article they started dating when she was 15 and he was 19. That’s a bit of a gap to shrug off.

In case you’d like to feel old this morning, Thompson is turning 18 in August, and graduated from Wilkinson County High School this year. She’s preparing to go to college later this year, and has been dating 21-year-old Dralin Carswell for two years.

Yeah, that bugs the heck out of me. Biden might be trying to change things at the border - even if it’s not as much as we commie pinko libruls want - but everything gets held up in court, so policy’s still stuck in Trump mode. Which is, as you said, cruel and inhumane to actual people. (I wonder, what if there were a…

“Forcing people to carry unwanted pregnancies drives people into further positions of poverty”

Our current family structure keeps us isolated and disappointed and perpetuates abuse.

This picture isn’t a selfie. It’s a bunch of people standing up in the middle of a show, blocking an aisle (even if a lounge setup, I’m pretty sure people have seats) with a bright enough flash to illuminate them when backlit by the stage. It also looks like the kind of situation where people take multiple pictures in…

After seeing the picture, I’m on Team Miranda here. Get to the concert early, have the champagne delivered, and take your group photo before the artist comes on stage. Later, during the concert, maybe a quick snap of her (preferably between songs) to show how close your view was. After that, put the fucking phone away…

Feels the same to me like the IN state AG going after someone who goes to IL or MI to take advantage of their recreational pot policies (he’s not, but pursuing someone for engaging in commerce out of state because it’s not legal in your own state is truly and sincerely fucked up).

1. That’s not a selfie. I know English is an evolving language but that’s not a fucking selfie, otherwise any goddamn photo with a face on it is a selfie.

The people saying that this has nothing to do with her being Black is insane. The Black community takes missing Black women and girls pretty seriously online. It’s how we let the community know to look for people that the cops don’t care about it. On the one hand it does make Black people look bad if people are lying…

You and me both. I wouldn’t piss on this guy if he was on fire.

No one asked me, and I’m not even a Kennedy...and even I want to issue a statement denouncing this turd.

Soldiers are owed respect from conservatives, and conservatives cannot bring themselves to respect women or minorities so they must exclude women and minorities from the military.

One could and should. I believe in reparations, though I doubt you’ll ever convince any of these pinheads. As a Californian (expat, but still a voter), I’m desperately hoping they don’t mishandle the Reparations Task Force, because the entire nation is watching (red states especially, hoping to see it fail), and if it…
