That's all I got. Fuck this.

I am 100% against the death penalty in any and all cases. That said, the idea that beheading is "barbaric" is just western racism.

I think sometimes abusive parents have a tendency to believe the lies they've told themselves about how wonderful their children's childhoods were. Particularly if their children turned out to be decent adults.

It's completely his own business - but it is also part of a broader narrative about what it means to be transgender. Most of the mainstream media is pedaling this idea that someone can just go to the surgeon, say I wanna be dude/chick, and away goes their current gendered anatomy. This is so profoundly false, and…

I don't know Bruce Jenner's business, but if he is trying to transition I hope intensely that the douchewad Kardashians will publicly (and of course privately) support Bruce's choice. As the sister of a trans man it's hard to imagine family rejecting someone they love, but clearly that is not the world we live in (RIP…

Thank you! Here's an otter for your troubles.

I was seriously starting to think I was the only one that had this problem. Everyone seems so content to just throw in whatever cheap junk headphones came with whatever gadget and use them all day long. Me, if I try that, my ears are throbbing in pain within 30 minutes from the stupid things. I have small ear canals,…

Wow, awesome photographs from Iwase-san

Goodness what a lovely, and well written, item.

the Yoshiyuki pics mentioned here:

Man leaves daughter when she's 5. Man comes back into her life 10 years later. Man grooms daughter who shows the need for a father figure she's been lacking and has probably told about her discomfort with other men(probably in some part because the lack of a major male presence in her life). Sounds about right.

I'm…

Um can we talk about the part where he had a girlfriend IN THE HOUSE who had him having sex with his 17 year old daughter and didn't call the cops??

You know, if she were 35, and her father were in his early 50s, when they met again, I might have the same, "OK, that is NOT RIGHT but I can see how that might work." But she was 15. She's 18 now. And that means I cannot see this as anything other than deeply, deeply sick (instead of "well, it's not hurting anyone, I…

She found out when she heard us making love. I guess we didn't realize how thin the bedroom floor was. She really didn't mind. Now we're like a little family. She calls me her daughter.

Yup, if any 30-year old man started talking to a girl when she was 15, and then slept with her at 17, and married her at 18, I'd call it grooming.

WHAT THE FUCK KIND OF BACKWARDS ASS BACKWOODS THE HILL HAVE EYES TYPE SHIT ARE THESE PEOPLE RUNNING?!?!

If that food poisoning one is actually true, then that's awful. Her and the bride had a problem, and a bunch of wedding guests had to suffer because of that? Yikes.
