My main issue with this is that this is not about paying artists what they’re worth (for which I am very much in favor). This is about changing the nature and purpose of rights laws to better support large corporations in the changing landscape of the internet.

“It’s fine to talk about how it is hard to be a Republican and a woman—it certainly is.”

Well it began several million years ago when Tilda emerged, fully formed, from the Great Ocean and stepped onto the muddy shores of East Pangea...

The gun has the Second Amendment engraved on the receiver, because civilians slaughtering each other wholesale every few weeks with weapons of war is surely what the founding fathers had in mind.

Reubens had a collection, much of it bought in lots at auction, of old muscle’n’fitness magazines, nudist lifestyle stuff, and vintage erotica. The DA said it did not meet the definition of child pornography. A city attorney later brought lesser charges against Reubens. I haven’t seen his collection, obviously, and I…

I’m sure everyone’s seen it, but it’s still my favorite.

This dirt bag needs a brain bleach chaser:

Wait what? Recess and Pepper Ann are what were waxing nostlaiga for? I came here for some Care Bears, Jem, My Little Pony (original), and those freaky claymation after these messages people:

Much music. Very sound. Wow.

I had absolutely no friends with children (at least not baby-children). I knew a girl at quilt guild who was due around the same time as me. After mine was born early and I learned (through stalking of her blog) that hers had just arrived, I e-mailed her and literally said, “I don’t have family here, and it looks like…

Counterpoint:

People who know her are saying that she did not have a lawyer or anyone with her when she was being interrogated. The information that has been reported in the past (she knew about the ammunition, drove him to the club etc) may not be accurate. If she is as disabled as this article claims, then everything she said…

Unfortunately, many people with severe physical/learning/mental/emotional disorders have to simply make do because we don’t have a good system set up to assist them. She also could have had help from her family or friends or neighbors, or maybe she’s able to complete tasks like doing the wash, cooking, and cleaning.…

Where does this particular article say she or her family admit she pleaded with them? Elsewhere people have said she did not even know what he was up to. It is the authorities (who dropped the ball) who say she knew and pleaded.

ohhhhh my god, I feel really bad for laughing at this

She doesn’t get to pull “being disabled” because people on the Internet have already decided she should be hung? The fuck?

It’s possible to have a very serious executive functioning deficit and a disorder of working memory that would make it very difficult to understand cause and effect. I understand you’re being facetious, but not all of the things that are commonly called “learning disorders” are as straightforward as dyslexia or bad…

There is a very wide spectrum of learning disabilities, so she could very well fall at the far end. Frankly, from what we’ve learned of the douchebag asshole fuckwitted shooter, he sounds like the sort of person that would marry someone who’d struggle to be able to disobey him or argue back properly. He would love a…
