For somebody who plans to serve, you’re not that vigilant.

How can you not compare? When I see something like those Duggars in their weird shapeless clothes pushing their values on TV and having and army of babies and then I see what happens when people buy into that stuff and have jihads over it, and I see women’s rights being taken away comparisons don’t have to be made,…

I feel like I’m never going to understand economics. :(

Oh, well that’s even less choice then the lack of choices I was ranting about. Let’s let women choose when to procreate and when to mother. I was saying people shouldn’t be forced to parent regardless of their views on abortion, as in if you’re prolife that doesn’t mean you now have to raise babies as punishment for…

I’m prochoice. I’m against personally having an abortion but I say let others chose. And no, I’m not saying I’m against murder for myself but other people get to decide to murder. The way i feel about carrying babies to term is right is more analogous to how I feel it’s right to go ahead and plant seeds and water them…

I don’t get what the fuck being anti abortion has to do with razing a kid you don’t want. anti abortion shouldnt mean forced motherhood. Maybe it’s because I was adopted, but I’d assume if the only reason you weren’t having an abortion had to do with principles and you didn’t want to raise a kid then there are people…

I wonder if I’d burn even more calories by thinking skinny thoughts.

So instead of going on a diet I should just pull an all nighter every now and then? I’m a huge person with medical issues so my weight fluctuates by several lbs a day. I have noticed that if I’m up all night, instead of gaining or losing 2 or 3 lbs, which is my normal fluctuation, that I’ll be 7 lbs lighter. I may…

I don’t think baking is a subset of cooking. I think it’s it’s own thing. Anyone can cook intuitively, you mix stuff together and/or heat it up. I can look at a salad and make my own sub par salad after just looking. Baking is some kind of mysterious science.

I don’t mean to disparage the police. I haven’t met all these bad cops myself (still alive). But I did see them on TV and the internet and I was very angry.

I think that only works if it’s on and possibly if it’s actively being used on NCIS. (That’s just more crime drama fantasy like giving a damn about victims, competent employees, rape kit funding, DNA, and fingerprints.)

Are religious people who refuse medical intervention or pump out as many babies as their bodies can handle also mentally ill? I don’t think just because you do crazy shit you’re crazy because a lot of crazy shit is normal in a crazy culture and a lot of normal stuff is looked at as crazy. Like, if you hang around a…

And the blackface is really funny too.

Do you realize her intent is to do science reporting, not write a personal essay?

I’ve always had “used” dogs and I kind of want to raise a tiny puppy because my used dogs are so awesome I feel like I missed out. My full grown dog was great, but I wonder what kind of puppy he was.

I could make it an anology for ongoing reaffirming consent. Sweet, I’m going to be able to discuss regular boundaries AND BDSM in one metaphor. I can’t wait to have kids!

I’m just a contrairian, it was a great example.

But what about the nonverbal communication to keep going? When we’re tickled, we smile, which tells the tickler to keep tickling (and helps us learn how to protect our vital organs in a safe environment).

What microagressions are you talking about? You’re applying the phrase trigger warning wrong if you think it’s about microagressions. When you’re talking about trigger warnings, you are talking about abused people. it doesn’t need to be specified. For example, racism would be considered triggering because there’s a…

Do you know the definition of the word trauma? I think the problem is you’re misreading it as offended or something.
