The idea that a school could use an Indian guy in a war bonnet as a mascot, but not allow an actual Native student to wear a feather—a deeply significant symbol—to their graduation ceremony is absurd. It's incredibly racist. Rules against decorating graduation caps are usually in place to prevent students from…

I'm pretty sure if a white student wore an eagle feather + beads at this graduation, also the kid in question is actually a he, it STILL would not be allowed.

Wait what. Did we read the same article?

Poor Toni Braxton. That is internalized Tea Party/Christian Right misogynist self-hatred right there. I hope she finds some peace and forgives herself.

Ugh... Toni Braxton may have said the dumbest and most horrible thing I've heard all day, but it's early. I have a kid in my family with autism too, and yes, his mom believes that vaccines probably caused it and it's hard to argue with someone who really wants there to be something to blame.

dear god why

"The kids were absolutely ravenous," remarked an onlooker. "At one point they cut the throat of a raccoon and feasted on the blood while cooing "'sweet nectar.'" Another witness noted that blood-soaked copies of acclaimed hit Country Strong were found scattered around the restaurant.

The grey haired guy and his wife are my good friends!! Their names are Tony and Chelsea Northrup, they've got a great sense of humor and have been getting a kick out of this Velveeta thing. They're both very talented photographers and you can check out their work here!

I think it's an accomplishment to stay in school as a teen parent and graduate.

This seems to me to be more of a problem with the mother, thinking that a relationship with a 15 year old could ever be consensual. I wonder if she ever even reported it, which certainly could be difficult if she was here illegally, but at least from the reports so far, it sounds more like the mother was angry they…

Seems like the mother wasn't too concerned about her daughter making plans to run off with the man if she complained to the neighbors and suspected there was a sexual relationship between the two and didn't do a blessed thing to stop it. Her 15 YEAR OLD!

Well technically, they might still wind up in the waterway, depending on how that garbage is handled. What you should have done is mixed in some acetone to dissolve the plastic, then let the acetone evaporate so that the plastic congeals into larger aggregates.

A friend once told me she overheard her sister singing "all by myself" while pooping. Personally, I'd pick something more upbeat.

This was my experience as well. In fact, every French woman I was friends with when I lived in Paris discussed her weight CONSTANTLY. It totally fucked with my head. And a lot of my friends had these super weird eating habits, like where they would have a pastry and a coffee in the morning, drink coffee and smoke…

But Sweden is the HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH!!! haven't you read all the articles and scientific studies!?!?

Right? I guess they are just appropriating, and not really understanding or caring about the artistry or meaning behind what they are toying with. I've never involved myself with Katy's tendency to do that because I try not to speak for people.

If I ate a baguette with jambon and beurre for every time one of my French female friends, colleagues, acquaintances and/or students said they were on a "regime", I would be shilling for Victoza a week into my tenure at a French middle school.

Not all French women.

This is how I imagine these guys must walk, if the ball-space thing is such an issue.
