This kid always creeped me out, let's see what he looks like now.

Just wait until they start menstruating all over the church floor. Then the no underwear rule will magically disappear.
Uh, wah wah wah? That's all I'm hearing. Poor strain on the poor prosecutors, clearly they're the victims here! Not the actual victims! Next time people, when someone commits a crime against you, think of the poor prosecutors and don't be so selfish with your shattered life and grieving process.
What are you complaining about? Most rape victims never burden your precious system in the first place. They take the burden and the pain themselves, for no pay or reward.
Do you understand what it's like to be raped? The only obligation a victim has is to healing themselves. Even in ideal circumstances it can be traumatizing, let alone when one is homeless. For some victims it has truly ruined their lives. And as a D.A. you should know that juries are very unlikely to convict when the…
Why, exactly, does it have to be a contest between which is worse? So letting rapists walk free is worse, so that makes it automatically OK to lock up victims who have difficulty with the process? That kind of over-simplification of these types of issues always bothers me. That's not how we have to deal with these…
I am pleased to learn that the new Kallax shelving system will have the same internal dimensions as the Expedit system.
I find religion offensive and appalling, so deal with it.
This isn't so much about taking them literally as it's about taking them at face value - and pretty much nobody argues that the Bible is a book you're not supposed to take at face value. Even if you accept that these are "teaching stories" you're supposed to think that the takeaway from the story of Job is "you're not…
dude, the article is literally parts of the Bible.
Yes! See that's what I'm always trying to explain to people. It's like, compare the OT God to gods of the contemporaneous Assyrian religion. All those Bronze Age cultures had gods that were insanely badass and seriously bloodthirsty. Basically, those were tough times.
You're so lazy you still have your Christmas name!
I want to mock these people but I can't because I am a big fan of subscription boxes and that's almost the same thing—getting surprised by stuff I could easily buy but find much more interesting when someone else sends it to me.
See, no, basil. What you're missing is that Piers claimed to have read the book. Mock wrote a piece in Essence Magazine critiquing what Marie Claire did, AND (this is pivotal) she addressed it in the book which Piers has claimed to have read. He called it an inspiring and amazing book—yet he keeps harping on something…
We do not have to apologise to our oppressors for being angry, and allyship and oppression are not mutually exclusive (despite what Piers seems to think). We are not attacking them, Janet Mock was not attacking Piers Morgan.
She did NOT. Her editor changed her wording without her permission. She made that clear repeatedly. She was USED.
I've always admired the PATIENCE and restraint you use in your essays. They're appropriately a little fiery, but you're so good at breaking shit down politely that it makes trans issues incredibly accessible to well-meaning people I know who don't Get It. I love linking your work to others, and they enjoy learning…
Mock could have taken it as a moment to be an ambassador for trans people and used the show as a platform to teach Morgan and his viewers.
Exactly this. I can 100% believe that he was not trying to offend when he initially said "born a boy." What I can't wrap my head around is that when she said it was offensive he decided to argue her to the ground about whether it was or not instead of learning something new.
Heath! I finally found you, There you are! The only person in the world who doesn't already realize that snow and ice on the roads go hand-in-hand! I can't believe it's really you! How are you old friend?!?!
