The replacement of the VM by a student group with a student-created production doesn’t seem like it should be conflated with throwing out anything problematic. If this group could only do one performance that year/semester or if they only wanted to do one, then I think it is a good thing they decided to produce their…

I’d like to see women who had to have abortions, or carry to term or miscarriage despite wanting an abortion, after 20 weeks sue the state if laws make it hard for them to access abortion in a timely manner. They should absolutely be able to sue if they would have had an abortion at 19, or 14, or 12 weeks but lack of…
You donate a piece of liver and then the liver repairs itself and regenerates what is missing.
The time drainage is real. I would put it at as much, if not more, than Zombie Simpsons, though still less than TvTropes. I’m pretty sure it was a Jezebel thread that initially turned me onto it.
Yeah, I think that quite a few people underestimate just how much prison maintenance and labor is done by the prisoners themselves, not to mention the varying degrees of supervision at low-security prisons, ones that actually manage to get funded job training programs, etc. And even if some items are considered…
In the books they weren’t expected to consummate. That’s why Cercei can get her arrested for adultery. Because of her hymen being broken, likely because of horseback riding (Cersei even makes a snide remark about how fortunate it is for her and works for her plans that Margaery enjoys riding), there is considered…
That is also odd. Not familiar with their app and how much they encourage it, but I do know how heavy their focus on training is. I’m actually impressed with how much training they seem to do on customer relations and stress management based off a profile on their training program in a book about building habits I…
I, especially not always the best myself, can sympathize with workers losing it over seemingly small things, especially if they happen all the time and their are personal problems going on. Not excusable or acceptable, but in some cases understandable. Not that I think every employee automatically deserves…
I definitely don’t disagree. And what I was trying to get at in the case of people like cab drivers, hair dressers, servers, strippers, and nail techs (I’m guessing some of them either rent their work stations and pay for supplies or only get commission too) is that they have never really been “something extra.” The…
In some professions, such as hair dressing, the hair dressers either pay rent on their booth or get a commission so the full price of the service isn’t going to them. Same thing with taxi drivers. They have an overhead to meet as a result of being considered independent contractors or such, and tipping is…
I can’t find the link now, but those who go in for a later-term abortion are a minority and if the reason is other than medical it is often because finances, distance, pre-screening and waiting period requirements conspired against them to make things even more costly and time-consuming. The first link includes a link…
You were writing in response to someone who said that having her in office wouldn’t necessarily advance women or women’s issues, and then belittled them with a comment about their assumed youth. In the comment of yours they were referring to you straight-up said women’s issues would be done a world of good by a woman…
It would be huge, but that doesn’t mean it would automatically be great for women, especially those at the “bottom.” And way to be condescending and dismissive with the age comment that completely failed to address any of their points. Margaret Thatcher’s success was huge, but that doesn’t mean it was a complete boon…
I think you could cobble together a diet meant to do the equivalent for women from a couple of Muscle and Fitness Hers magazines or some interviews/videos with women bodbuilders (those in the categories like figure and physique). For the cheat day diet, well, you could just copy my semi-daily one. Gelato, black bean…
That makes sense and kinda knew what you are getting at. Just that I would expect the people most often labeled “SJWs” to be at the forefront of pointing out how ridiculous it is when sexual harassment is excused by saying a guy “is/may be/must be on the spectrum or have a mental health/personality disorder.” But I…
And of course if she had responded with her name and hadn’t been abrupt in ending the conversation and he kept creeping on her, the same assholes would be saying “You shouldn’t have led him on.... You should have just ended the conversation if you didn’t want to talk to him...........How was he suppose to know you…
I find it interesting you specify “SJWs” and the “SJ” community. There is nothing social-justice oriented by trying to lay bad behavior at the feet of mental illnesses and mental health issues. Especially given how often it is used to excuse/explain racism and sexism and harassment, and given how it is used to give…
Yep. That’s what really disgusts me. Fantasies are one thing, but abusing access to privileged information, arranging for payment for kidnapping, and all this in conjunction with looking for info on chloroform and rope goes beyond fantasy. http://jezebel.com/5990151/cannib…
Except he kinda did. He used his police powers to look-up personal information and addresses of women. This goes into it more: http://jezebel.com/5990151/cannib… . I get not prosecuting people for fantasy, but feel that abuse of powers to aid in gathering personal information combined with searches on how to make and…
