Yes! Thank you.

Yep - the forcing you to download the app to read reviews was a killer. I know there are a lot of factors in their demise but that has to be one of them. If I google something and want a quick look at a few reviews I can’t be bothered with some service for which I have to use a standalone app on my crappy phone that…

I had to read that like 3 times before I realized and quit responding, no, Chicago West is in Illinois!

This really shouldn’t be a shock to anyone. Haley stepped down for a reason. Bolton is back doing what Bolton does, withdrawing from the Human Rights Council, and if he had his way he’d withdraw from the UN completely. Putting Nauert in is a compromise for him - he’s not allowed to leave the UN but he can make sure…

I’m sorry you are going through this experience. Be kind to yourself and let yourself be however you want to be, grieve however you need to grieve. I remember at the time someone (who had never had someone close to them die) telling me I was doing it wrong because I wasn’t following the 5 stages of grief in order!…

Almost a decade ago my boyfriend passed away unexpectedly. I remember walking down the street in the city where I lived and wanting to shout as loud as I could to all the oblivious people passing by that [his name here] had died. I knew it was irrational, as although he was well-loved by those who knew him the vast…

Hmm yeah that sounds like something with avocado in it - I think I know what you mean but am not sure of the name. Something like this? Usually see it served as a kind of condiment like on tacos like you do.

Most likely salsa verde - it’s delicious. It’s tomatillo based, usually spicy and very easy to make. Lots of good recipes online.

GREAT article - and articulated most of what I’d been thinking. The quote at the end from his 2001 boat trip though was another nail in the coffin

Most of the Portuguese people in the Central Valley are second or third generation at most (and mostly from the Azores) and would definitely consider themselves to be white not Latin or Hispanic. Most of them also work in or have a background in agriculture/ranching - a lot are active on the rodeo scene for example -…

The cartoonist (and whoever has been publishing his stuff) is racist, full stop... someone else went to the trouble of collecting some of his more ‘problematic’ cartoons, you might say there’s something of a theme.

Best post being dumped drunken solo karaoke song ever.

Zero. His church would have to care and I’m fairly certain the people that matter there don’t (I say this as a church going person and this makes me very sad). Even if any of them think he ‘slipped’ they’ll put the blame on her - she’s a temptress you see.

Change out the word ‘lover’ for rape victim and I’m right there with you. She gave birth when she was twelve so it seems likely he raped her when she was 11. We need to talk about this crap. Supposedly the father of the baby Aretha had at 12 was her 13 year old boyfriend but I seriously wonder if that was just the…

There is this weird deference given to preachers that I’m not sure is matched anywhere else in our culture. Gives those who are so inclined massive room to abuse.

Yup. This stuff happens all the time, especially in churches that are built and revolve around a single man (or man and his daddy in this case). My husband and I concluded that he probably acts this way in his own mega-church all the time and no one bats an eye because he’s the ‘Bishop’ and because of who his father…

I don’t know much about this bishop but I do know a lot about churches and my husband and I concluded that this is probably how he acts all the time, both the questionable ‘jokes’ and overly touchy/gropy in his own church (which Wikipedia tells me is a megachurch and that he basically inherited his position there from…

Definitely not,  I think 5'10 is probably accurate. I’m 5'8 and he was not much taller than me - definitely not taller than my brother in law who is 5'11...
