I did some research on the juvenile justice system in Germany (in comparison to the U.S.) in law school last semester. Juveniles (up to age 21) are never tried as adults in Germany. Most serve less than 10 years. I believe the maximum is 10 maybe 15.

I want all jobs to add -fighter at the end. Crafts Fighter. Chair Fighter. Air Fighter. RIFLE MOTHERFUCKING FIGHTER.

I wish women didn’t have to depend upon finding the “dream” job to get paid maternity leave (example: my husband’s law firm, where women get about 6 months of paid leave). The odds of finding that job are nearly impossible and to qualify for it you need a HUGE advantage (education - probably a graduate or professional…

I would also argue that Andrew Jackson was an absolutely shitty president and it boggles my mind that he is lauded as one of the best presidents. He led the country into a horrible depression and passed the Indian Removal Act, aka “Trail of Tears”

So there are staff members who pretend to be stupid so that the tweets sound like they came from Trump? I cam imagine a group of people looking at a sentence and saying “okay, let’s take this idea but make it less logical and then add Sad! at the end”

natural selection - let’s hope we’re thinning the herd

The only positive spin I can add to this - coming from an immigration background - is that it is unlikely for an immigration judge to deport him under these circumstances alone (I can’t help but think we’re missing something). If he has U.S. citizen family members, such as a spouse or young children, then it is even…

This would be a reckless and dangerous thing I wouldn’t do in this situation, but a vengeful part of me would LOVE to return the packages with some added “gifts” inside. Pigs blood? Dog poop? Teletubbies?

I love the empty written-by-the-media-team apologies that everyone makes on social media when they backtrack on something that they said.

I like to cook too but I filled my registry with Le Creuset. OOOH THEY SHOULD HAVE GIVEN HER A BABY DONKEY!!!! I know she’s an animal lover!

As someone who isn’t even that girly, I admit that I have a pink frilly apron from Anthropologie and I feel very posh when I wear it. It’s a sign that I’m about to do some real adulting like cook a roast.

I just had to explain to a couple who arrived in the U.S. recently that if the wife couldn’t find a health insurance plan that would cover her pregnancy she should look at low-cost clinics in the Boston area for prenatal care as opposed to the world-renowned Harvard teaching hospital where her husband will be working.

I have a question because I’ve only heard of abortion being talked about in connection with Planned Parenthood or private clinics. What if you try to go somewhere else for an abortion, like a hospital? For example, I get all my medical care at Mass General Hospital - PCP, OB-GYN, Psychologist, Psychiatrist, etc. -…

The best thing I learned in fourth grade was how to sew a button (and I WILL always have a calculator in my pocket Mrs. Jansen so there!).

His only impression of Africa is probably those Feed the World commercials with crying children. I work in immigration law and do a ton of visas for doctors and have brought many amazing doctors and researchers from these “shithole” countries to a hospital that has been ranked #1 in the U.S. many many times.

I live in Boston and I would enjoy seeing this pupper at the MFA almost as much as I enjoy seeing Keytar Bear around the city (Keytar Bear is a person in a bear costume who plays the Keytar and spreads happiness to the world with his melodies).

I work in a hospital so the flu shot is required for all employees (obviously because I could kill babies and the elderly and other people with weak immune systems). I also get the flu shot because it’s kind of shitty if you don’t do it (and even if it’s only 60% effective or whatever it’s better than nothing because…

Can someone explain the whole “suit with a cowboy hat” thing? There are no more horseback riding cowboys. It’s a partial Halloween costume. And he looks ridiculous. Also, he’s in fucking Alabama, not Texas.

Senorita...what a tune.
