I can remember, so vividly, the embarrassment I felt when, in 8th grade, a teacher softballed a question about evolution. I, scoffing know-it-all, blurted out, “If evolution was real, how are there still monkies?!” You know, what I was always told was the nail in the coffin of the pro-evolution argument. My teacher

My stepdaughter turned 18 this year, but felt strongly enough about Trump that she campaigned for him despite not being able to vote. She still drives around with a Trump/Pence yard sign in the rear window of her car.

Here’s the flag: “alternative history.” She’s a very vocal ancient aliens proponent and is all about the woo-related skewing of history. So...yeah, this isn’t exactly shooting to be an educational show. It’s simply more faux history being pushed for ratings.

He’s astonishingly healthy and strong.

What an annoying little git. 

I wish closed captioning worked on this song, because I’m having a helluva time understanding what she’s saying for 75% of it.

A large portion of my husband’s family in Virginia have made or currently do make their living in coal mining, including my father-in-law. My FIL is a foreman and something like the 2nd or 3rd head person at the mine; he makes bank. He’ll probably be lucky enough that coal will hold out until after he retires in a few

Lmaoooo

This is a Bad Take™. If you haven’t refilled the tub at least twice because your water got too cold, that doesn't even count as a bath. That's like...a tub spritzer or something. 

One of my most favorite things was begging my parents to let me stay at my mamaw's late so that we could watch TV. She'd be in her bed and I'd be in the easy chair under a blanket. What did we watch? Unsolved Mysteries, of course. Scared the shit out of me every time. 

R. Kelly needs to disappear. Forever. Into a jail. After a trial that makes clear what kind of monster he is to everybody that still stans for him.

I’m so terrified of the day that the last survivor passes away and the Holocaust is entirely an event in memories. We’re already struggling against revisionist history and bonkers antisemitism, even with survivors left to tell their stories. 

So...she feels like she’s responsible for her own assault?

Considering all four of his victims were found *just this month*, that reads like escalation to me. I'm sure there are more, spaced further back. You generally don't go from murdering nobody to murdering four women in a period of weeks.

Princess Caroline’s episode last season murdered my soul. I'd just had my seventh miscarriage two weeks before. I dehydrated myself with tears that day. 

Casper is actually now married to a non-famous woman (she never got her big break and mostly works at conventions now), whose sister I was friends with in college. They got married like last month and had the afterparty at Dollywood.

I thought she’d already done the Balmoral thing when she first did Christmas with them. Was it last year? The year before? She gave QEII a jokey singing wall-creature of some sort.

As someone who also spent some time in jail for something relatively minor, it certainly changes your outlook. Nearly every other woman in there was because of drugs or something related to drugs. Many had children taken from them, but they loved to talk about their lost kids and show off pictures that were so worn

There’s at least two in Knoxville still. In my opinion, Old City has the best little eateries. Just go park somewhere on the end with The Melting Pot and Barley's Brewery and start walking, see what piques your fancy.

Yes, this is the way rich people do it. There are a lot of ways around inheritance taxes and public declarations of fiduciary worth if you know what you're doing or have good asset management
