Absolutely saddened to learn that Yogi Berra has passed away. A World War II vet, present on the beaches of Normandy. And a Yankee. Anyone who knows me, knows I am an unabashed Yankee hater. But that dude transcended my opinion. What a personality, what a ball player, what a legend. RIP Yogi.

Bladen county and Columbus County are FAR worse. BY FAR. They’re both about 40 minutes’ drive from Fayetteville. So really it’s that whole fucking area (Robeson, Cumberland, Bladen, Columbus, hell I’ll throw Sampson county in there too). I commented in my own (grey) thread about the area because I grew up in…

Reminds me of a funny Reader’s Digest story. A dad wrote in about giving the facts of life speech to his young son. Since the son was his fourth child, he’d had a lot of practice, and he felt it went very smoothly and successfully. His son’s response was, “Wait. You’re telling me you and mom did this?” He said yes,…

Yes, it is fucking good for me. Because I don’t know how many fucking people have told me “oh you’ll change your mind” or “you don’t really mean that” or “but what about my grandchildren!”

So fucking yes, good for me. It’s been a goddamn struggle coming to terms with my own decisions with my own damn body and it…

Thank you. For a long time, people couldn’t believe how nightmarish the experience was, because they couldn’t believe that a (Catholic) doctor would insist I carry a dead foetus until I went into labour naturally and my husband was so incapacitated by the loss, he forgot his role as my advocate. They told him to go…

Agreed. Jackson has to go.

Let's not get crazy. Lima beans are the worst.

BANNED.

Dismissed, blocked, and flagged for hate speech.

THIS IS A FUCKING PERSONAL ATTACK ON ME AND EVERYTHING I BELIEVE IN

Biased in favor of... facts?

Lots of us aren’t screaming. In fact, I’ve spent a good portion of my life talking to parents about vaccination schedules. And what you’re saying is actually NOT common sense, unfortunately. Vaccines aren’t like drugs, where more vaccines = more toxicity. Vaccines are made up of disease antigens - bits of the thing we…

Obligatory:

Uh, I believe that you’re one of the “shitty people” living in Chillicothe. Regardless of the ends that these poor women have met, your self-righteousness is breathtaking. So, you have options to care for children in a depressed area (and what are you, a Realtor?), and are fortunate enough to escape a genetic…

Brilliant! You’ve solved the case!! I’ll notify the FBI and tell them to go home. Just out of curiosity— where are you walking here at night? I’m also curious about your age? If you’re young and immortal— I can’t really trust your judgment because there are plently of places here I wouldn’t walk at night. Mainly…

Drug addicts and prostitutes can be serial killer victims too. In fact they’re pretty easy victims since it’s hard to get people to really care about what’s happening when they go missing.

I’m from Chillicothe; I knew Tiffany and Charlotte from high school. People have their opinions of the town—I even agree with a lot of them. It breaks my heart, though, to hear the constant narrative of “Yeah, it’s such a tragedy, but they were drug-using prostitutes. The town’s riddled with poverty, what do you…

No, no, no. Racism ended in 1833 when the British outlawed slavery. Everyone knows we’ve never had trouble since.

Fucking, fucking, fucking hell. What an absolute bastard. I am so, so, so fucking sorry that some piece of shit tried to use that against you.
