Lots of insurance plans cover elective abortions.

That has nothing to do with where you got your money. That has to do with the type of porn being illegal/unavailable.

Because they’re health care.

My first car was a ‘98 Cavalier, and I still get a sniff of nostalgia when I see them on the road.

I don’t trust them with my luggage (I only check things I can live without for a while, if anything). I can’t imagine I would ever trust them with my pets. They can fly with me if they absolutely must come (I have agoraphobic cats, so if we moved overseas or something). Although that’s not safe anymore, either, since…

It’s too bad the adults can’t put the same effort into not letting assholes get guns that they do into punishing the kids they shoot for protesting.

I would read the shit out of this YA.

“If the work was objectively good before you knew he was a rapist, it doesn’t become objectively bad all of a sudden, now you know the truth. That’s how I see it.”

Thanks for the warning. One of my new years resolution-y things was to spend less of my energy watching that kind of stuff.

No. There’s this thing called consent. It means the difference between super fun sex and rape.

Is he up to date with his eye exams?

To paraphrase JK Rowling: the world is not divided into good people and Larry Nassars.

I can see that, but it’s so weird. I feel like SVU has taught me so much about sexual abuse that I didn’t know before. Namely, the varied ways people respond to trauma.

That sounds like a reason *to* read it. I always want more motivation to back up my hatred.

But how do those questions prove that it’s her kid anymore than “is this your child?” does? That’s why I’m confused.

It sure must be. My original comment was about how *her employer* created a hostile work environment by hiring a man who expressed a desire to ejaculate on her.

Why would I be?

Weird, since I copied and pasted from the first sentence of the Wikipedia article...🤔

My current mantra is “I don’t participate in football culture”. As a Minneapolitan, I can’t wait for this mess to be over (and have provisions to hide out in my apartment until all these dummies are gone).

So your employer hiring someone who has publicly expressed a desire to masturbate to ejaculation on your person doesn’t create an environment that is difficult or uncomfortable for another person to work in? Okay.
