I have my own body image issues and wish my nose was smaller, etc. Is it weird that my reaction after reading this was to try to love myself more?

The “fuck it I have a spare moment for a mini UK Update” update:

he doesn’t want a partner - he wants an accessory, a bauble, a thing he can look at other people and say, look at this thing that i have and you don’t. 

Only permissible in non-gay-wedding cakes.

What about thoughts & prayers?

Someone else summed it up like this. The internet lets you put on a mask, and some people become batman while others become super-villains.

Hurry up and open that tomb. Dude still owes me a skateboard.

DON’T FORGET ALL THE PINK! If it’s not PINK, it’s not real cancer.

JFC.

Ah, October. The month we are bombarded with expert opinions on breast cancer from people who are not oncologists.

Ahem.

Once a coworker told me that even after Sandy Hook he’s never giving up his guns, I realized any attempt at a discussion about it was completely over.

You can’t legislate evil. You can, however, legislate so people who would do evil don’t have access to military grade weapons and ammunition. Also, we legislate against evil already...they’re called “LAWS” you stupid fucking NRA ass monkeys.

“I think if you look to Chicago, where you had over 4,000 victims of gun-related crimes last year, they have the strictest gun laws in the country. That certainly hasn’t helped there.”

“Also tucked in the bill...is the legalization of armor piercing bullets, so long as they are marketed for ‘sporting purposes.’” Yeah, because you know Bambi is kitted out in full fucking Kevlar as she gambols around the meadow. Fucking lunatics are in charge right now.

Also, in the interest of stopping witch hunts, police have cleared Marilou Danley of any connection to the shootings.

This makes so much sense, though. The way to stop religious communities from enforcing rules on how women dress is to have governments pass laws enforcing how women dress.

I feel like that could be even worse, given that Syria, Iran and Turkey are also very much opposed to an independent Kurdish state.
