Stephen’s the religious one, right? He’s quite probably working out how to start his own church with Justin’s celebrity pull.

One of these assholes tried to run that train on my sister after she had her second kid on Facebook....only didn’t actually think to look at her current occupation.

These are the people who, after watching their child suffocate due to diphtheria, will either go “at least they weren’t autisic!” or “why didn’t anyone tell me vaccines were so important? It’s their fault!”

This exactly. My son is on the spectrum, and that is the first thing that I think when I see this shite. He’s quirky and fucking awesome (very, very much into all things Italian and loves Franks Sinatra - like I said, fucking coolest 7 -yr-old ever)... I’m glad that I won this lottery.

Not to mention: These assholes run their fearmongering on the stigmatization of people with autism. Even if vaccines *did* show a causal link to autism (which they do not, don’t @ me) these folks are saying, “I’d rather risk actual death than put up with an autistic kid,” which is monstrous.

You know what else can kill your baby?

Rich people need better hobbies. 

She’s been on the bench much longer than Kagan and Sotomayor, and has a brilliant legal mind. I’m happy with our culture bending toward reverence of learned, esteemed women. That said nothing this guy does or says seems remotely deeply felt or contemplated. 

It’s like you’ve breathed life into the voice of of ignorance- do you like being stupid? https://www.sfgate.com/movies/article/RBG-highlights-the-life-and-accomplishments-12882565.php I defy you and any other dipshits to read the body posted therein. This will be reposted, if dismissed.

As a Democrat and a native Vermonter, I’m incredibly wary of people trying to attach any sort of broader narrative about trans people in politics to this specific election. Scott is a moderate Republican by any barometer, who recently made waves by supporting gun control measures after a thwarted school shooting. I…

Yeah, tell that to the women who are still searching for the kids who were snatched from them at the border.

Vermonters rarely oust incumbents. I am a registered democrat, and typically vote for more liberal/progressive candidates. But, like many of my cohorts, I supported Scott over Hallquist in this election. Why? Because I was satisfied overall with his performance over the past two years, feel his experience is…

The thing that these narratives get wrong is that, for most rational, even liberal leaning people, trans identity does not automatically imbue someone with the capability to govern and lead. It is a descriptor of someone’s personal identity and exterior aesthetics, not evidence of their skills and capabilities. And…

Some births are deadly, no matter HOW much “primal instinct” you have. I watched a live-stream of a shelter/feral cat attempting to give birth, and after the second hour of struggling and pushing, the person running the show said, “nope, something’s wrong, taking her to the vet.” Turns out that the first of her 4…

Six days. Six. I’m a gay dude and even I know that’s not a good sign.

I get mistrust of the US health care system. I really do. But it wasn’t THAT long ago that childbirth was a leading cause of death for women. Forgive the expression, but don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater.

WTF is the point of living in modern times if a person doesn’t avail herself of some of its luxuries, like a freaking pre-natal appointment to a midwife or something? Yet she will chatter on FB about the “primal instinct” that takes over. Guess what? Birthing can be pretty deadly, just look at history. But no, the…
