Good to know that you were a perfect young adult. Because otherwise, surely you wouldn't bother doing anything as selfless and pure as treating children.

Nicholas Sparks: The George R.R. Martin edition.

Not one of those children died in a situation like the one that happened here. Six of them were left because their parents forgot they were in the car. The other two were supposed to be somewhere else and found their way into the car without their parents' knowledge. Your link says nothing to justify making it against…

I could see myself waiting until mom got back before I drove off, maybe even next to the car so I could see his face or something. I'm not capable of ignoring children out in public. When I see a kid who looks under 10ish running around my neighborhood, I give a quick look around for whoever is watching them. There is…

You don't think being *forced* to cover up from head to toe is oppressive?

This is almost exactly what I said to a friend of mine when I read this story

I'm sure they do ask, but not out of the blue. They're raised in a culture where this is expected. My religious upbringing wasn't half this creepy, and I asked when it was my turn to participate in certain rituals.

It's so crazy how I look at them and think they all look great, but I get into a dressing room with a swimsuit and can only see my flaws. Body positivity is hard in practice, y'all.

Don't hit your dog with a fucking car, you asshole.

Pretty sure you're not thinking of a Jessica Simpson song: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sourc…

It's like you didn't even read the article, that's how far over your head the point is.

The courts have ruled again and again that students cannot be compelled to stand for the pledge.

Fuck you. Is that respectful enough for you?

Aw, this makes me sad. All of the parents I know are so ridiculously in love with their kids, I feel a little twinge when they're around. That's not to say their kids don't make them crazy occasionally, but they can't seem to imagine a world without them. A lot of them are people who had to work at getting pregnant…

Ehhh. I don't think there's anything wrong with being uncomfortable with certain potential side effects of birth control, even as an educator. Before I finally sucked it up and got my IUD, they terrified me. I worked in a family planning clinic, I'd assisted with IUD placements before, I knew the pain was fleeting,…

They're going to say that no matter what her circumstances are. Because they're assholes who hate women. Also, statistically speaking, she's not in some tiny minority. According to Guttmacher, 51% of women who had an abortion had used a contraceptive the month they got pregnant. That means 49% hadn't. They're no less…

Your comments give the impression that you don't see her as a person with agency. In the same way that it's OK for a gay person to come out of the closet, even while it's unacceptable for another person to out them, this woman electing to put a vulnerable moment out there for all to see is not wrong or bad. It is…

She can believe whoever she wants to believe. I'll respect who I want to respect.

That's how life is. Oh, OK. Let's not criticize people for sticking up for known creeps/probable rapists because C'EST LA VIE.

Because MN is amazing, duh.
