Is it just me that sees five rows of Hasidic Jews in the lede?

Just an update because a lot of you were super supportive last year when my daughter was having serious issues with her mental illness: school has started, she’s a freshman this year and she’s doing so damn well! She’s even in pep squad which has taken us all by surprise, but fuck it! She loves it so we figure it’s…

“after refusing to violate hospital policy”

Important to point out it’s not really that it is hospital policy- the hospital’s policy is simply them complying with the Supreme Court’s ruling on this exact issue. She refused to permit him to violate the constitutional rights of the patient.

These are exceptionally well done, but I still find the thirst to be on Ellen grating. I’m totally open to the idea that I’m just being a cynical asshole though.

Thing is, Lord of the Flies was a response to a particular conceit of British pulp novels which depicted young boys/men being stranded as a fun adventure with little internal conflict. Golding took the subject of entitled British boarding school boys and the kind of savagery he saw in how they acted with each other…

Almost time for me to culturally appropriate some tacos for lunch. I’m so hungry right now.

Good christ do you people have a lot of rules.

On one hand, it’s a little disturbing that they’re ignoring him because disobeying the order of your commander-in-chief is not a great precedent.

I’m in the military and I think one of our Soldiers may be transgender. I write “think” because I really don’t give a shit because they do their job. I have found most of my fellow Soldiers feel the same way.

Talk about a captive audience. And here in my little town a childhood friend is having a hard time finding a way to get out of a flooded area so he can get to the funeral of his son who is one of the sailors who died on the USS McCain. My message to the White House in regards to his situation were (shock, shock)…

Trump has yet to accept Mexico’s offer of help to the Houston flood victims.

Its not hard to find, i’m looking at a page right now you can get a box for around $40 USD. Get discount if you use bitcoins.

These price cuts are nice, but the cuts to staples to milk and butter are pretty minimal and not likely to bring too many new buyers in.

The cuts on fresh protein—the salmon and the lean beef—are pretty significant and worth convincing, especially if my local (nice) Kroger doesn’t have them on sale. It’s enough to get…

Yeah, and I’ve been taking Prilosec every night for nearly 10 years. That shit’s only supposed to be taken for 7-14 days.

You’re not supposed to take Advil for that long either, yet people do despite the risk to their livers. One could argue Advil is a performance enhancing drug too in that it decreases pain and may allow someone to work harder than if they were hurting. One could also argue that, as is often the case, her long term use…

I always thought the Sharapova suspension was chickenshit.

i want some. get me some. kinja deals?

I’m so glad that they’re safe but it feels weird to think a viral tweet is the way to get emergency crew to come quickly.
