Wait, isn't Nick married to Bobbi Kristina? Doesn't that make him next of kin? And that statement is shady is hell (regardless of how gross Nick is) because we all know those "terms and conditions" could be anything from submitting to a drug test to only looking at her through the glass.

I mean I don't think I would reduce it to something as simple as "restricted lives" and "arranged marriages." That calls for painting the situation with broad strokes which could quickly lead to racist backlash against muslims yet again. I don't want to speculate on the exact circumstances that led to these girls'…
They are fully aware and looking forward to it. They just haven't realized what it actually means.
England is in an election year, and there are a lot of rich white guys hitting the anti-muslim campaign button. The same rich white guys who are condemning people for joining ISIS, you don't need to be an expert in teen psychology to see why ISIS (which is nicely remote from daily experience) is suddenly the top…
There are de radicalisation programs particularly within Muslim communities that do actually work. Political beliefs and feelings of isolation aren't things that you're born with and being a teenager burning with outrage at everybody else's seeming insensibility to the injustices of the world is something people…
Some definitely do, or at least see it as something that was necessary. When I was at school, I lived near an army base, and a significant amount of the teenagers there, who then joined up straight out of school, were proud of some pretty nasty acts of violence. Plus, there was a scandal at the time when various…
Children? According to Islam they're old enough to marry and impregnate, so they're adults. Or don't you respect the cultures and beliefs of other lands? Stop forcing your western ideals onto them. Oppression! Oppression!
Thinking back to all my 17-year-old high school classmates who signed up to go to Iraq, I really don't see much difference.
My old therapist and I talked about this often. I always say I have a chronic, potentially fatal illness. I don't actually want to die when I'm suicidal. I actively fight against it. My fuckered up brain chemistry makes me think that suicide is the only cure. It's like having a voice in my head that sounds like me…
I admit, I am now way too invested in this. I will cry if this is fake. I will be all adultosaur if it's true tho, because this is the BEST THING EVER TO EVER HAVE HAPPENED.
I just wanted to point out something you may not know. The mental health community is trying to change the language of 'committed suicide' to 'died by suicide'. The change is to help reduce the stigma that people suffering from severe mental illnesses have 'committed' something shameful and are making 'selfish'…
Teacher here weighing in. Yes - some administrators might not do what they're supposed to. Some teachers may not do what they're supposed to. It's disgusting and embarrassing when adults don't intervene. I can't tell you the number of times I tried to report, contact home, intervene, involve administrators and was…
I seriously doubt it's true. Like I believe they were at the same party, but I doubt they're dating. Harry usually goes for blondes, right?
Oh, it was intense. Black people basically stopped talking to everyone. White folks walking around feeling guilty/sad/scared. You could cut the tension with a knife. The headquarters office almost got involved. It was a mess. And again, all because one white man felt left out. It was just crazy!
Oh man, this is going to sound so lame, as it always sounds so lame to voice one's personal emotions about a celebrity's life—but I am happy for her. I have not seen that movie—but I think she is a good actress who gets too much flack for being a bad actress, given the abominably written role of Bella Swan in…
the scamp prince + hermione granger story is my FAVORITE piece of gossip that has ever been gossiped.
Kristen Stewart winning a César award is actually a pretty huge deal. She is the first American actress to ever win it, and the first to even be nominated for it in 33 years. The most recent nomination received by an American was Adrian Brody in 2002. It's an incredible achievement.
My job did this a few years ago. It's a federal government office. On the menu was "chitterlings and maw" and something called "Hopping John." Yes, this was all planned by non-Blacks.
