“Calling it a wedding kind of detracts from actual weddings and commitment ceremonies, and given that’s a right that some people are still fighting for, it seems kind of disrespectful.”

Don’t forget, this is also about getting presents.

I’m not sure I buy that it’s disrespectful to other marriages. It’s just another philosophy on what a marriage can be.

I’ve done that long time ago, it’s the best relationship i ever had.

Wonder if we’ll meet the surrogate? She’ll be famous: “Surrogate to the stars.”

Ok I’m disconcerted too! These procedures started wayyyy before she turned 18. Her body, her face, and her capacity to make long term decisions about permanent body alteration were not formed yet! It just baffles me that this is legal. I understand minors having cosmetic surgery to correct disfiguration or other…

Just in case anyone is curious... I am not pregnant, nor am I expecting to be anytime soon. Thank you for your time.

“... what the President is doing to this country” not “... what the President is doing for this country”.

And I love what he’s doing ***to*** this country

I imagine it takes a LOT of time, energy and money. Three things I have in short supply and am unwilling to spend in order to look “pristine”. Then again, I am not paid to keep up those kinds of appearances. Your average social media celeb is. Don’t know about your fellow bridesmaids, though.

I generally prefer to caboodle.

Yup, I can be happy that they’re doing this demonstration, but it’s not going to change my mind on the NFL as a whole. The whole “inducing traumatic brain injury in a majority of its players” thing is really a turnoff for me, in addition to all the domestic violence, substance abuse, and murder layered on top of it.

Uh-huh. Meanwhile, they gladly take million$ from the Pentagon and in return turn the ceremonies surrounding the games into propaganda events.

It’s almost comical to see the team owners all over cable tv this morning prostrating themselves with righteous indignation at Trump. This was the straw that broke their camel’s backs (not any of the egregious things until now). So now they’re sorry they openly supported Trump, stood on stages at his rallies and voted…

If a person wants the privilege of being president he or she should not be allowed to disrespect the very ideals that form the foundation of our government and should uphold the constitution. If not, YOU’RE IMPEACHED. Find something else to do.

Some stupid ass had linked a petition to Whitehouse.gov (not that I clicked, so could be fake) wanting to name and shame everydamnone who didn’t stand for the anthem. This fascist shit is getting out of control

The NCAA champion team Tar Heels is also refusing to attend (reportedly because of scheduling issues).

There have been some really interesting (and disturbing) articles written on the careful linking of professional sports to nationalist ideology/symbology and the armed forces. I’m going to try to pull some links and post below.

I thought the Pope was a master class in “How To Pose With The Trumps 101".

First office job syndrome? “You wear things like thus, right?”
