Well since the court only considers one a person I imagine that’s where most of the problems are.

I don’t think this is neglect, I think it’s abuse. And it reads like his school failed to help him, at the Santa Fe New Mexican link:

I’m wondering if the fact that the teacher was only seeing the kid over video from the shoulders up may have helped mask things for a lot longer than if they had been seeing him in person at school every day. Even if he was getting tired and sluggish, they again are seeing them sitting at a table for a few hours,…

Santa Fe is not remote. It’s a 40 minute drive to Albuquerque, the state’s largest metropolitan area. There’s also a low cost train that runs between Albuquerque and Santa Fe. Albuquerque is generally where people with cancer from other areas of the state seek treatment. As a lifelong New Mexican, I’m much more…

The parents let this poor child die a horrible, agonizing death. I felt sick just reading about it. 

Though the lack of universal healthcare in this country is a travesty, this boy’s tragic death isn’t entirely due to it. From the Albuquerque Journal:

I must be a hipster then. I was bullied and disowned for being queer. I would never and could never be friendly with Mike Pence even if it meant me becoming President. Aspiration over integrity is not progress or equality, no matter how many Ellens the straight people eat up.

There’s also the matter of it’s not just…

Yours is a perfect description of why discerning voters were comfortable with Buttigieg, but were passionate about other candidates.

I don’t know either of them personally, but I do know a handful of McKinsey folk and Pete always reminded me of the rest of them: Exactingly cultivated personalities with principles that extend no further than their usefulness.

My granny used to tell me never to vote for a Kennedy because Joe Kennedy (JFK’s father, not the current one) repeatedly tried to bribe her father (my g-grandfather).

When will this country learn that when a “Kennedy” from THE “Kennedy” family is running it is a bad thing?. Do they think their idea of what “Camelot” was will happen again?

This fully armed boy had 3 cops roll past him after killing two people, during the curfew they were claiming to enforce, and not even a single tear gas spray was directed his way. White America’s sons of anger get to kill people with the state’s seal of approval.

Michelle Visage needs her ass beat for several reasons but her criticism of Chi Chi is chief among them. She is to gay men what Michael Rapaport is to black people. When you’ve spent THAT much time around a community and still manage to do more harm than good, there is no teaching you.

This is a lovely article, and really speaks to how great Chi Chi was, and what aspirational shits RPDR is sometimes. As a total outsider to the art world, i think it does very often prize access over talent. One of the reasons I love drag is that it questions everything, reflects pop culture and turns it on it’s head.…

The show’s following the book pretty closely, this was just Chapter 2. It makes sense in the big picture.

Samuel Braithwhite (Tony Goldwyn)—son of Titus, father of Christina

Sign my gay, biracial heart up for beating wildly in anticipation of this reboot!

Ugh execs are so out of touch, for starters baby pink and blue is the trans flag. The bi flag is fuchsia and deep blue.

Im fine with this change.  A lot has been written on how terrible the wives of plantation owners could be.  Hell one could argue one of Americas worst slave owners was Madame Delphine LeLaurie.  I say this without having seen it yet so I could be 100 percent wrong. 

White women's power to target black men with society's racism is a great part of the story of black Americans so hopefully they are switching the sex of the character to investigate that.
