She does have a face to go with the vulva, if anyone is curious.

Everytime I see this picture, I am reminded a summer session college art class where the discussion was “ what is obscene and what was art? Our instructor (female) projected this picture on a screen in the front of room to audible gasps from the class, a ten foot vulva in its natural state. After a minute or two of…

Every time I hear the word “obstruction” come out of Mitch “I’m going to do everything in my power to make sure Obama is a one term president” “No we will not hold any hearings for Merrick Garland during a lame duck period” McConnell, I want to punch his face sooooo hard.

She was lacking both a head and a name, reduced to salacious parts without identity. That doesn’t sound like “dignity” to me.

I’m starting to think this Mitch McConnell guy is a bit of conscience-free, partisan, hate-filled asshole.

I seem to remember a long-ago edition of either Wired or Popular Science that went into how the US would invade a secessionist California, with awesome diagrams and little F-22 icons, and all that kind of stuff.

White GOP guy is accused of sexual assault by 4 individuals (at last count IIRC) and throws the biggest hissy fit I’ve seen in a good long while on public TV at a committee hearing of all places and is still under investigation by the FBI: Expedited 7 day wait for confirmation.

“If you listen carefully... you can practically hear the sounds of the Democrats moving the goal posts.” - Mitch McConnell

This painting is my favorite counterexample for anyone who claims that there’s a difference between art and porn. Those nudes in prestigious art museums, and even a lot of paintings that feature no nudity at all (Fragonard’s The Swing, for example), were created to be titilating. That doesn’t mean they don’t have…

Way to go a dox this lady for the high crime of wanting to share one (actually) tasteful nude!

More red flags there than a May Day parade. 

I’m with you. Precision in language is important even in non-medical or non-scientific discussions.

I’d always hoped it was Joanna Hiffernan, if only because I am perpetually amused by the madonna-whore complex exhibited in how different artists painted that model. For Whistler she was the virginal girl in white, for Courbet she was a naked lesbian. Knowing both those images are the same woman makes them infinitely…

Yeah, a creepy guy in my college dorm had a giant print of this above his bed.  And he was bitter that no young women wanted to date him.  

Vulva, not vagina. The vagina is the interior, canal part. The vulva is the exterior including mound, labia, vaginal opening, etc. It’s an important distinction.

Jesus. The senile old goat thought she said, “I’m not thinking, Mr. President,” when she actually said, “I’m not. Thank you, Mr. President.” As in, I’m not surprised that you picked me. What a fucking moron he is.

I know you’re not thinking, you never do.

Perhaps it isn’t minimizing the Dreyfus affair but is instead tongue in cheek, the way Polanski downplayed his sodomy, rape, and drugging of a child?

From the article:

My mom’s office had a UPS driver who was a sarcastic pain in the ass. One day she couldn’t find a seat at a popular fried chicken restaurant during a busy lunch hour. The UPS driver was there and offered to let her sit at his table with him, promising not to talk to her. Luckily they did talk, and they’ve been married…
