Exactly. I’m happy for them, that they had a happy, comfortable experience with Evangelical churches.

Okaaaay, but why? Like, I’m glad that this author is a well-adjusted person with happy memories of her childhood and adolescence, but I don’t really see how that contributes to the conversation.

“It is rare to hear someone in mainstream media acknowledge that they are glad to be or have been evangelical, even though about a quarter of Americans are evangelical.”

Also pointed out that the D&C, the exact same procedure that is done for an abortion, is performed for miscarriages and there’s no building codes placed on a facility doing THAT procedure to be retrofitted as if it’s Cedars/Sinai Hospital.

Say what you want about George Clooney, but if he were there, he definitely would have done something:

You know that Charles Manson never actually killed anybody, right? And he’s clearly mentally ill. Are you arguing for him to be released and put into therapy until he “gets better?”

Generally, the legal standard is the ability, in the moment of the act, to determine whether what you were doing was right or wrong. Based on the evidence here, she almost certainly had that capacity, though obviously the defense will attempt to show otherwise. But with text messages in the record, she’s left a trail…

I’m as liberal as they come...but chick was practicing her responses beforehand. That shows forethought that she knew what she was doing was wrong.

Living in Massachusetts, I have been following the case since her arrest and what she did was seriously messed up.

Jenna Fischer just broke my heart.

when sometimes people are just egotistical assholes

He’s simpering and unlikeable but he does good impressions, and the bar is that low. I’m afraid that most of humanity is unremarkable.

Colbert is 100000000000000000x times funnier, more clever, smarter, and better at interviewing.

I’m so sorry. I put my cat down a year and a half ago. My advice— be there when they do it, because they will look for you if you’re not. Hold him and tell him how much you love him and pet him in his favorite spot. You will be surprised how ready they are. You will cry your face off, but the vet doesn’t mind. It’s…

He’s a gigantic baby who has always fancied himself to be far more important and talented than he actually is.

I am a case manager for low income families. A lot of my clients have some trouble with family planning and regardless of the fact that some of them live off of less that a thousand dollars a month, continue having baby after baby. Do I think it’s right to keep bringing children into poverty? No. Do I keep my opinions…

Don’t be; this show is so much better than My Super Ex-Girlfriend ever could have hoped to be.

That’s not fair. Vince Gilligan wrote “Small Potatoes,” Darin Morgan just played the monster. Also let’s not forget that showrunner Chris Carter wrote a heartwarming episode all about monster rape. Not sure what my point is, I haven’t seen the episode yet so I still want to defend Darin Morgan I guess. I might feel…

It’s a canid that looks like a raccoon. As I wrote to my local news station. it is not possible for canids and raccoons to cross breed.

I just saw a tanuki for the first time a few days ago. Racoon/dog thing. I’d post a picture if only I knew how!
