I think that it’s helpful to have multiple people saying the same thing. Gives it more weight.

wow, wow, wow. That’s not how autism works. Autism is neurodevelopmental, Autistic people are Autistic their whole lives. Stop telling parents that EI will “cure” their kid, it won’t. What it does is help their kid by educating the parents on their child’s unique development and how to support them. Please do better…

At this point I might even be able to stomach some sort of pardon if it gets him gone.

Why? Churches often have large spaces that go unused during the week, there a ton of them and they are located in a diverse range of areas. Strict rules about campaigning and electioneering should be in place for all polling places. The church does not get anything for being a polling place. So how does it impact…

I think the danger is that people may think that the police are actually like that and that can impede real change. I mean, who really wants to defund Jake, Amy and Captain Raymond Holt? 

This is not the win we think it is. He will likely be replaced by his primary challenger not a Dem. And his primary challenger will learn from his mistakes, not the whole “don’t be a white supremicist” thing but the “don’t say explicitly white supremicist things too loudly”

I'm an active church goer and I love that my church is not "cool." Give my hymns, intergenerational community and fussy babies. The last thing I want is to be shunted into a Young Adult group and be seen only for my age. I love how my church is invested in training leaders and fostering community. Oh, and they have…

But if we sing enough praise music and put in a coffee bar no one will notice. So many of the "cool" churches are really homophobic and conservative.

And when he was talking about homosexuality he was talking about a preditory Greek practice of men coercing boys into sex. Similarly to Soddom, we are talking about bad sexual ethics and raping people. Bible is pretty clear that rape is bad. Unfortunately the examples used are homosexual and everyone misses the point.

Married someone who is really allergic to pine. Sadly it took my mother-in-law many Christmases of everyone getting sick to figure it out. An artificial tree may be in out future but for now I put the ornaments on my houseplants. 

And they are the same ones that accuse me of “cherry picking the Bible” because I’m a pro-choice, feminist, sex positive and not LGBTQ hating Christian.

I think having both partners take time for childcare has has an effect on the home level and a larger societal level. If childcare is seen less as a woman’s problem and more of a parent’s problem it makes it benefits everyone. To that end it seems like employers should be required to offer paid parental leave and…

Doesn’t make it ok. I know plenty of couples who do not have this division of labor. I would never settle for this kind of behavior from my spouse. I married an adult and he had damn well better act like one.

Which is why we need to focus on paid PARENTAL leave. Fathers who spend time as their child’s primary caregiver are more invested at they grow. It also normalizes that parents are important regardless of gender and they need reasonable accommodations to be parents.

I feel like a 10 hour day isn’t the worst idea, or at least having childcare that is included in public school that goes until 6 pm. Most people work 8 hours and then you get an hour on either side to commute, go to the gym, run errands that are easier child free etc.

100% guarantee that officer walked past at least 3 white people engaged in other prohibited behavior such as drinking coffee, vaping, playing music without headphones or eating. 

But this is the first time the test hypothesis is that the people to become better.

I like this theory. Because he really hasn’t done anything in the context of the After Life that is bad or harmful. He’s just a big goofball.

Exactly. I knew we could not afford a full meal so we got married at 2 pm and had a heavy appetizer reception with cake. We went home and opened wedding gifts in our pjs while eating cold pizza. It was perfect.

I mean I think the feature makes things less safe because it distracts the driver and encourages them to engage with the app while driving. But I had not thought of how this could help keep POC safe by reducing the chance of them being pulled over. Something to think about.
