Excellent point. And look, I think Bernie is a great legislator and an important voice to have in congress, but I will never forget how much like the typical dude he acted when push came to shove. Clinton had been working for or with the DNC for all of her adult life practically. She paid her dues. And the fact that…

I’m around the same age as Sinead O’Connor, and was also raised Catholic. When she ripped up the photo it was absolutely a sane and gutsy thing to do, albeit not great for her career.

Even as a young Catholic girl, surrounded by critical adults, I got what she was doing. Agree or disagree but it fucking made sense.

She was a megastar. I was a teenager then, and she fucking huge.

She recorded a full reggae album about ten years ago in Kingston and donated a portion of the profits to Rastafari elder community there. I remember an aunt of mine going to a concert of hers a few years ago but she was not happy that Sinead played none of her well known stuff just exclusively the reggae material. Not…

It definitely said so much that people in this country were so shocked. It was before the sexual abuse coverup scandal. I really think we’re still that provincial.

Rich, it is very fair to pist an article criticizing Dr. Phil for all he does. I would have preferred though if you had continued the tactic of taking him to task in the body of it.

WORD! I remember reading Flowers on a long car trip at about...15?Having no idea of what I was in for. I was a very precocious reader and had read a bunch of my grandma’s romance novels way too young but Flowers is my first clear memory of, “DAFAQ did I just read?!?”

Between that, It, all the caveperson rape in Clan of the Cave Bear, and the incest in Flowers in the Attic it’s amazing I got out of my teen years without having been grossed out of ever having sex altogether.

Yeah, that’s likely true, but I found it odd that she asked him to cut off contact with this other woman so early in their relationship. I don’t think a trusting girlfriend would dictate to whom her partner could speak. That doesn’t mean she was wrong to distrust him, or that her behavior (i.e., reading his private…

She didn’t trust him to begin with. Why is it ok for straight people to say their partners can never have any sort of contact with anyone they have ever been interested in again? I see this constantly and it’s so fucked up and unhealthy.

You are one hundred percent right. Sports culture in this country is disturbed. And the toleration of bodily injury and pain is probably the worst thing about it. Throughout high school, college and grad school I’ve watched star athletes be praised for doing the exact same thing: injuring themselves and then taking on…

I am not clicking that video.

This is, “thought” for ”thought”, “point” for “point” what ISIS al-qaeda uses to recruit/motivate.

I mean it’s basically the same thing as “72 virgins.” They’re just ISIS with different outfits on.

Fuck you, you pathetic equivocating piece of shit.

Wait, I’d consider Yellow Summer one of the best seasons. The pressure is off, you’re past the ‘what are you doing right now while its amazing out’ moment.

Gray-brown fall is not the worst season. It’s vastly superior to both Gray winter and Brown spring, as both of those seasons involve discovering what’s been rotting under snowbanks since White winter. Bird spines, human poop, rat arms, etc.

As we have discussed elsewhere, there are EIGHT seasons, not four. Fall contains the best season and the worst season. The correct and accurate rankings:
