Ugh, Ed Sheeran just lost major points with me. I absolutely loathe people that use the "If I had a daughter, she wouldn't do x" argument for things they don't like. It reflects the mindset that girls are still their father's property.

" Beyonce is likely the finest living performer we have right now and she proved that again tonight."

Shit, I hope Roger Federer doesn't do this challenge. If my 80-year-old grandmother, who has framed photos AND a life sized cutout of him in her bedroom and carries his photo in her wallet, sees a video of him all wet, I don't think her frail old heart could handle it.

Due to the publicity from the ice bucket challenge ALSA has been able to earn 31.5 million dollars so far. And that's up from 13 million just a couple of days ago. Last year they only earned 1 million dollars. People are donating because of the challenge so I think it's a great thing. Almost every person I know who…

Mrs. Richi.

Indeed I am. But oft times we drink the wine of passion, even knowing it is deadly.

Spoiler alert: her mother is not looking out for her best interests.

Of course he's shocked. He thought he could get away with killing a black person! Welp, sad day for him. As for the lawsuit, I understand where the family is coming from, but I don't think that dude has $10 million. How would they get it?

I'm shocked, too. I thought for sure he'd get away with murdering her.

Obviously I disagree. I think the founding principles and how they are interpreted are heavily implicated in the progression of any institution.

Canada has 4 million fewer people than my state, California. But also, this article isn't talking about Canada, nor is Canada in Europe.

My brother and I were taught from a very young age to sit silently, with a napkin in our laps, and practice fine dining manners (like signaling the server by putting the fork and knife at 5 o'clock or tearing off and individually buttering each piece of bread). If we acted up we were given one warning, then abruptly…

Vietnamese parents save hella dollars on diapers because their children are potty trained before they are even 1 thanks to an elimination communication method that involves whistling when it's time to pee.

In the aggregate, it does make sense that there is a correlation between a big wedding and "high-quality" marriages. The reasons cited above make sense, and I would add that there really is a lot of comfort, in an odd way, to feeling pressure to stay married. So long as marital problems are not abusive or destructive,…

Real easy not to go into the military when you have decent education and employment opportunities. Not all of us have that growing up.

Maybe I'm just a little on edge about this shit lately, but it seems kind of telling to me that if you get involved in the American Prison Industrial Complex and you're white, you get a million dollar publishing deal at the end of it. As opposed to if you're black, in which case you get dead.

And you especially do not want to be the kid of one of those people.

What's worse is that some women blame themselves. Like I was drunk or I put myself in that situation or I maybe came on to the other person or I just let my guard down. It's one thing to be scared of what other people my say or think. That's horrible enough, but for a man or woman that was assaulted to have those…

oh honey <3333 i'm sorry.

Well for my sake in this context...I'm hoping it is haha...

otherwise my kids are coming out of the womb with acid flashbacks and demanding a bottle of Jim Beam.
