The only thing I have learned from the backlash against the crusades comments is that Christians don't like to be reminded of all the shitty things they have done throughout history. I remember taking a history of the church class in HS and I was basically done with all of that noise. Christians have been both…

Dear Azealia Banks,

What a novel argument. Please tell us more, only through this kazoo.

Here's what people are trying to tell you: the point isn't that these sites are sacred in some absolute way. It's that they are considered sacred by the local people. Disrespecting the site shows a deep disrespect toward the people. When you're a traveller, disrespecting your hosts is pretty despicable.

It's only a Shoebill! They are as cartoony as they are terrifying. Also they are ginormous.

He has become pretty much verbally abusive/manipulative to me in the recent years, and we're trying to work on it

You have a lot going on here. First things first- get the hell out of this relationship. Then you will have the time/space to get to know yourself better and figure out what you want. Do not, under any circumstances, marry this dude, not just because you need space to process these feelings about your sexual…

I'm bi, too, and there definitely seems to be some special kinds of shame surrounding it. Obviously I don't know your family, but I think most people who come out are amazed by how quickly something that's shocking at first becomes the new normal. I was so terrified I wanted to vomit, but once it was out and I wasn't…

I don't know how to tell anyone in real life that I'm bi. I'm 30 years old and I can't even bring myself to say it to anyone. I'm afraid my decently progressive parents will react differently when it's their own daughter, and my extended family is traditional "old country" Greek. The last time I told a boyfriend, he…

I'm just explaining why it's creepy to people, dude.

Such an unnecessary post. There's a very clear difference between spanking your child as punishment (still not something I agree with) and spanking a cartoon girl in a sexually provocative position in a game that's sexually focused.
I hope to God you can see that...

Puppy sitting and Sufjan. Are dudes welcome to post here? I like the vibes here.

I had a hair color appointment go wrong this week. While I don't especially care (hair grows back, y'all!), my husband was trying to be funny and told me I looked even more like our Rottweiler than usual.

SO I just got a kitchen aid stand mixer (YAY- I've wanted it for so long) I've made what seems like 20 batches of Chocolate chip cookies and I need to switch it up. It would be really great if you could share your favourite baked good recipe. Breads are good too!

People need to stop calling this game creepy and a game for pesos.

Dude seriously who fucking plays these games.

i can't believe these claims of things that have clearly happened. just can't believe it.

He is enormous and adorable and I just put out the FUCK OFF mat on my own uterus.

This is a picture of my cat from a few years ago when there was some kind of ad campaign with a cat surrounded my marshmallows. It looks like he's sleeping, but he is staring at them intently.

I worked in an office with a guy who was incredibly good looking and also very charming. We had an admin who would freeze up every time he walked by and could barely breath. One day he stopped by her desk to say "Happy Administrative Assistant Day" and the only thing that came out of her mouth sounded like something…
