Gwyneth: it’s called a halo. You have one, right? Didn’t you curate a collection of platinum and jewel encrusted haloes to match the ibis feather wings and the uranium harp in your “I’m No Angel, I’m What Angels Admire” sales campaign?

California state laws set the term of imprisonment for second degree murder as 15 years to life in state prison.

In this case, the inmate had been taking female hormones since the late 1999. If it’s legally feasible for them to have a medical guideline that they have to take hormones for at least 5-10 years before they are even evaluate for surgeries, that should be enough to discourage “fakers.”

I can’t get on board with taxpayers footing the bill for sex re-assignment surgery. However someone feels about their body, it is still functional, and there is no guarantee that surgery will solve their dysphoria or that it won’t lead to other complications. I think 30 years is probably enough time served for a bar…

Agreed. Everyone is acting like he just died, but he’ll still be around, adding to the conversation. Just in another form/context. It’ll be OK, everyone. Really.

I absolutely love this post. You summarized your opinions, which I share, in such a thoughtful, and for me, very bittersweet way. Obama has not been perfect, but his rational “no drama Obama” approach was the antidote to the paranoia and utter insanity of the Bush years. Obama played the long game and won.

He 100% will be missed. Unless you’re on Fox News.

Somehow this made me cry again. He's such a loss to the conversation.

My 22 and 17 year old sons watched in sadness what has been a household staple for them their entire lives. Despite us being a pretty open and political family, it was Jon Stewart who created the discussion with our kids about various subjects. Both of them are better people, more socially aware, more compassionate…

Jon, you were brilliant, erudite, and just plain awesome. You shamed Congress into passing the 9-11 responders health care bill, you fed Tucker Carlson his testicles on Crossfire, and you gave birth to brilliant talent....John Oliver, Steve Carrell, and Stephen Colbert among others. You will be missed buddy. Your…

The Daily Show with Trevor Noah which was why he was measuring the peen.

(It’s always how I’ve pictured you.)

If you told me 10 years ago I'd be saying Thank God for Al Franken, I would have thought you were high. I'm proud to be one of his constituents!

Fantastic work! Even if folks know their representatives support women’s health, constituents calling or writing to thank them really makes it easier for them to continue doing so.

All of abortion is healthcare, you piece of shit troll. You’ve been leaving feces stains all over this fucking site today, hopefully somebody notices soon.

If I am pregnant and you force me to carry it to term, you are impacting my health care, whether the pregnancy is “safe” or not. A full-term pregnancy has a mental, physical, and emotional cost that women who want to give birth sign on for. If I do not want to pay those costs, having an abortion is in fact a matter of…

If it involves a medical doctor and my body, it’s fucking healthcare.

I respect human life, and I do not want Alabama to be associated with an organization that does not.
