Whenever I see things like this about the US it genuinely makes me sad. Its like no matter how much money the US has its never enough to truly support its people.

This is so AWESOME! I'm so happy for this awesome soldier and his family :] And big kuddos to the officer! I am so not crying. Nope, no tears. None.

You mean Jack Nicholson who hosted Roman Polanski's photo shoot and rape of a 14 year old girl is a pervert!?

January 1st here, I have a party every year, but its never really for me, I always feel like I am crashing someone else party. Have you ever try finding a restaurant open on Jan 01, its a good thing I love Indian and Chinese food.

Maybe you should stop being such a judgemental killjoy (she says judgementally).

On the one hand: this story is a great example of why there are still major issues in how we treat women in American society, proving that the whole, "women have tons of privilege over men!" argument is bullshit.

Perhaps a Chiwetel Ejiofor gif parade will help. I'll start with one from Serenity.

oh, dodai.. i truly love you.

First of all, as noted in the post, Chiwetel Ejiofor is not "African American." He is British. Second, I am not a "fucking millennial." Pull yourself together.

My ex GF always used to tell me that once women figured out how to reproduce without men, we'll all be rounded up and "taken care" of. It would have been funny had she not been 110% serious

And to think my husband has tried to convince me his sperm has magical healing powers.

Really? I always thought the mocking I got from other girls was much, much worse than what I got from the boys.

Er.

If you exclude everyone that breaks a single tenet of Catholicism, I doubt there would be much of a church left (premarital sex? I'd say that would eliminate the majority of Catholics). Many people identify as Catholics and worship as Catholics, but disagree with some of the teachings of the church.

I take it you're not familiar with Jesuits?

You're my kind of people.

I commented on one of those. Something to the effect of "Oh great, a new way to let your impressionable daughter know she's a piece of property! She "belongs" to her father until he decides to let someone pork her? Great way to let a young woman know her worth!"
