PenguinLust: if the ultra-sound tech asks “Do you want to know the sex?” that means it is a boy - they can only know the sex at that stage if they see a penis.

First (and most important), I am so sorry for that which you endured. That any child has endured this is one of the most damning aspects of being human in this world. And I truly hope that you have found some measure of peace and healing in the interim. Thank you for eloquently expressing your vantage point.
Exactly. Her run for Democratic presidential nominee was what she needed on her resume to be the token democrat-liberal on Fox News.
When they did the ultrasound on me in ‘94 and asked if I wanted to know the sex, I said no, I can wait. It didn’t really matter, though, because if they had gender reveal parties back then, there aren’t enough trees in my city to even dream of causing a bonfire.
He doesn’t eat Whoppers. He just tells them. He prefers Bigly Macs.
Cocaine.
He’s got a lot of good ones. This seems appropriate too.
There is a similar program that STAR was modeled on called CAHOOTS in Eugene, Oregon. According to their media guide, they handled over 24,000 calls last year, and only required police backup 250 times. I am all for alternative crisis response teams.
We already have 911 set up to send firefighters for fires and ambulances for medical emergencies. Like, the whole 911 system already acknowledges that sending someone with a gun and legal impunity isn’t always the best solution in an emergency. How is catering to mental health emergencies even radical enough for…
I’m a social worker who works as a therapist in LA County. There have been many times that families I work with call the police because a family member is expressing suicidal ideation or has been engaging in self-harm. The police go out, can’t do much, and end up having to call the PET team or transport the person to…
No lives matter to these bitch ass gangers in blue. If you’re so fucking scared; find another job. This isn’t for you.
I’m saying that the end result of zero tolerance policies has been racist. https://www.pnas.org/content/116/17/8255
Back in 2017, I stopped recognizing the U.S. as the place I’ve lived all my life. Liar-in-Chief’s America is not my U.S.
If Biden gets elected, his day one executive order should just be “Reverse everything Trump did”
They just don’t give a shit. Since the college kids showed back up in my city, dodging clueless idiots with no concept of distancing has gotten so much more difficult. They do wear masks, so I’ll give them that, but they also run around in groups of 10 and and form a throng around you at the grocery store while you’re…
Oh buddy ... it wasn’t a story in Salon that got you fired, it was your hate-addled brain pudding.
It also helps that the internet made recipes and cooking more available. Before you used to need to get one from someone, or invest in cookbooks, read and understand. Or have time to watch a cooking show before shopping. Now you can skim a dozen different recipes and watch a few videos in less time, assuming you know…
Perhaps, but that would suggest a richer inner life, and a greater capacity for self-reflection than he seems to possess. I think it might really be as simple as it appears on the surface - he looks at everything from the perspective of how it can benefit him, and he truly doesn’t understand the concepts of altruism…
Congress is at a stalemate over how best to relieve the financial burden of their constituents.
