My younger sister was really into the Black Cauldron and also the Last Unicorn (not Disney, but cartoon) when she was about 5 and both scared the crap out of me.

But the a in cat is not a sound that exists in Spanish. You might say cat and pasta the same, or cat and gato the same, but that’s not the way it cat (or apple, or bag) is correctly pronounced in English.
Not everyone has the luxury of NOT being a community activist. In every movement that’s led to real change, that’s had a material impact on YOUR ability to pull your shitty ass up by your bootstraps, the real work has been done by working-class and poor people, mostly women. Not because they’re bored, or they’re more…
I am seriously not trying to be glib, and it’s entirely possible that in this particular case and many others intellectual disabilities render parents unable to safely parent (or pet-parent), but isn’t what you said true of absolutely every family? Parents of totally normal IQ leave their kids alone in the bath,…
All of these are fair points, and I have no idea if the decision in Oregon was correct or not. It’s entirely possible - likely, even - that these parents should not have custody of their children. And I am glad that the woman in New York had her daughter returned relatively quickly, but I doubt that if I were in her…
I am trying to say that the expense of foster care is not a deterrent to states making bad or willy-nilly decisions about when to remove kids. Yes, there are many documented cases of NYC removing children and filing neglect charges on the basis of possession of too little marijuana to even be a misdemeanor. And I can…
Ha, fair, and it is indeed a terrible newspaper.

Thanks!
Can you say where you found these? I’m in the market for something like this. Thanks!
My pumped milk set off not one but two explosives detectors once. They were supposed to pat me down, but they couldn’t figure out how to do it around the baby they had let me wear in a carrier through the metal detector against their own regulations. So they just patted down my husband instead.
She is beautiful and looks like a fighter, and Catalina is a gorgeous name. Sending all the good vibes.
Yeah, I used to take trains out of Penn Station a lot in the years after 9/11 and there were always National Guardsmen checking for LIRR tickets in the waiting room and kicking out people who didn’t have tickets. I know the real point was harassing homeless people, but I didn’t understand the pretext - like if you’re…
Sure. It’s shitty for anyone to get bumped, and I agree with you that there shouldn’t be a meritocracy as to who is more deserving of bumping. That’s all well and good in the comments section, or maybe, MAYBE if they worked this out before boarding the plane. But think about how this happened - the flight had already…
I’m further in and too deep to stop now but it’s definitely bad timing.
But now they have a beer garden! The current ads are pretty much the same as the 1986 ones. They’re my favorite after the Rollin Roasters ads.
And now Louisiana has made it a FELONY HATE CRIME to resist arrest. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/king-louisiana-resisting-arrest-hate-crime-cops-article-1.2955185
Good point. She’s not holding Donald’s hand, and she does kind of look like she’s trying to shrink into the background.
