The focus of this article should not have been on the 1/3 who had to travel 25 miles, but rather the women living in the rural areas.

Well, the entire Gawker syndicate is U.S. based, so don't be surprised if they focus more on U.S. issues.

I live in a rural area, and yes. People have to drive a good 2 hours to see their doctors sometimes. Often the small medical community nearby doesn't offer certain specialized services. Diabetics in particular have to drive out a good 1.5 hours.

Sssshhhh....maybe KIrke can only concentrate on one thing at a time??

Imagine when a Song of Ice and Fire ends...Dear lord, how will he even wrap THAT up?? It's either gonna be really good or really bad.

Wait. So you have to take multiple leaves from work, at least some of which will be unpaid, for the stupid "counseling sessions", set aside at least 2-3 hours (probably a lot more if you live in a rural area) pay for the gas it takes for the multiple trips, and then pay the insurance copay/premiums for those…

I've been afraid of "ending" books ever since:

Actually, I'm still in college! Sad to say, I was a HUGE reader before, but now I can barely bring myself to read even Jezzy articles. I…

YES!! I've finally found people who read OSC. I've only read Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow, but it came as a huge SHOCK that he was a homophobe.

Aw, I never watched Young Justice. That was when I no longer had access to the Cable. But I'm sure it was awesome while it lasted.

Don't you mean...*strains, grows neckbeard and puts on fedora*

At my university the common punishment for a rapist (convicted through the school) uesd to be only suspension for TWO semesters. Then after a (multiple-time) rapist ran for student office, a huge shitstorm broke out. Seriously. It was all people talked about. It was frankly a good debate. Now the punishment is…

I know!! When they announced the new Green Lantern movie I just assumed it was going to be John. DISAPPOINTMENT.

You can make Monsieur feel inadequate because John Stewart is just so great.

You should definitely at least watch the Justice League cartoons! My god, GL is brilliant in those.

Oh f*ck yeah Justice League. Damn, I was so jelly of both Hawk Girl and John. They were both so hot and cool. And the expressions on John's face whenever people did stupid things were so great.

John Stewart > Hal Jordan

In high school I used to get this a lot:
