A hearse and a coffin would have been better, according to my Teenage Goth side.

This seems like a different matter than everything else that’s been discussed. As the Duggar case has shown us, courts don’t usually prosecute based on just a report, and Dolezal’s adoption of her brother would have required court involvement as well.

I’m so glad movie ratings here have more power. Parents can take younger children into movies rated 12+. But 16+ and 18+ ratings are like laws that spawning idiots parents can’t just invalidate by their presence.

This is just my personal perspective, but if you had the intent to have sex with him before you got blackout drunk and your intent never changed then I don’t really think you were raped.
It’s a grey area, and I’m sure some people will disagree with me, since extremely intoxicated people can’t consent and all that jazz.…

Be awake and alert, listen to what your partner tells you, and if they look like they’re uncomfortable or not having a good time, they’re very likely not, so stop what you’re doing and ask them and if you get even the slightest intuition that they’re not enjoying it, stop.

I would really, really like to see comprehensive education on affirmative consent become part of sex education. (I would also like to see real sex education in all the states, instead of abstinence only education.)
But this is positive, this is a good start, at least. :)

One more thought about working at the theatre. We provided a student discount because I live in a college town. When a person behind the counter asks if you’re a student it is NOT funny to say “I’m a student of life.” It is NOT the first time they heard that, probably NOT the first time that day. I DON’T CARE if you…

Passion of the Christ, which we can all agree was basically a torture snuff film, brought the craziest people out of the woodwork. According to a friend who worked at the local theater at the time, more than half the staff just straight up quit over the abuse they got from people so ignorant and belligerent. This…

IS THERE ANYTHING WORSE

Eh, most of them have a cap you can put back on so you don’t actually touch any pee. And it’s not like they drip or anything, unless you’re peeing all over it (which would make it invalid, anyway).

I have black family members who look just like this woman, down to their freckles, and green and blue eyes, though their hair is darker. I wouldn’t have questioned her blackness.

Agree 100%. When I first met my wife, she out-earned me and I felt insecure. I surpassed her salary for a while, but she eventually far surpassed me and years later I couldn’t care less. We’re in our 40’s and know that we both contribute in our own ways. Age and maturity both play a MAJOR factor here.

Anti-choice is the nicest name I can make myself call these goddamn mother fuckers.

And I agree with you about Hillary. She may not be the ideal candidate, but we need to fucking vote her in anyway because any Republican will be so much worse.

I was kidding. But that sounds like some believable shit, doesn’t it?

I don’t think it was the content but the placement that was the issue. The other tattoos don’t appear to be on necks or, if they are, are likely on the necks of people who are already heavily tattooed.

It sucks that men are stigmatized into not talking about their experiences with being sexually assaulted by women because they’re expected to enjoy it. Good on him for sharing his story. His opinion about the Duggars though...

He LITERALLY said “but I have a black friend”

Thank you for saying what I wanted to say in a clearer, digestible way. I have a handful of tattoos, some highly visible, some more discrete. I was in for a touch up a few weeks ago (because I am old and have tattoos old enough to be faded and need touching up, which, for some reason, made me acutely aware of my own…

Not to mention that the work that she included is on the bodies of other people who didn’t ask to be dragged into this and publicly mocked.
