“But it is not an excuse for Democrats to try and strip away Second Amendment rights from law-abiding citizens.”

oh thanks for reminding me. My favourite thread on Jez. May my insomnia never leave me

Jake Gyllenhaal really should play the Joker in some upcoming Batman movie

That’s probably because you don’t look like you’ve put your head in a microwave

I know it’s hard to imagine but Ted Cruz is only 46. Someone who is smack bang in the middle of Gen X should have some clue on how social media works.

I think divorce rates are going down actually as well as marriage rates. Me and Mr Witch have been married 9 years and going on 13 years together but I am starting to see more couples divorcing in the age group that’s a little older than me. Probably their kids are older so they feel they don’t need someone else to…

Why is he doing campaign rallies at all?? He’s only been president for 8 months, though oh god does it feel longer

This song is fucking awful and I’m high and drunk. This is should make me feel something but instead I recoil

I don’t know if it would be painless but as least it would be quick. I live in Vancouver which I can’t imagine is a direct target but close enough to Seattle that we would probably be in the die slowly range. I’m old enough to remember the last time the world was worried about nuclear annihilation. The 80's fashion…

What do you think the chances are that some higher ups in the military are changing the nuclear codes right now and not telling Trump? I hope it’s fucking high. I don’t want or die or see hundreds of thousands of people die because of Trump’s small penis syndrome

This kind of happened to me or rather my housemate. My house had been broken into and the police came round to take a look. When the policeman popped his head into my housemate’s room he exclaimed ‘Wow, they really did a number on this room’ And I had to explain that my housemate was a complete slob and it always…

I’m from Australia originally, lived in the UK for a time and now live in Canada. I’m under no illusions that any of these countries are perfect but one thing that I’m glad about is that from my birth that my health care and treatment has never been about whether I could pay for it or being frightened of many unstable…

I believe America has been on a decline for decades and only now, maybe are Americans waking up to this fact. I think this idea of America exceptionalism is only in your own minds. No one who lives outside of the US has thought the US to be exceptional at anything except perhaps telling everyone else how exceptional…

My husband was taken away from his birth mother when he was 18 months old. She doesn’t have a mental disability, in fact she’s quite intelligent but she was unfit to parent him. Her heart is the right place but she, through various mental health issues, just doesn’t get appropriate behavior and boundaries. So my…

One thing that’s always struck me about Jehovah’s Witness’s is how unappealing it seems. No celebration of any holidays or even your own birthday. There are two JW churches near to where I live and have a few neighbours that are JW who are fine people in any other regard but I find that there isn’t any joy or…

Having lived in the UK in the past I have to say that the advertisements in general are much better than in North America. A lot of ads over there are funny or whimsical or original while American ads have a lot of woman licking yogurt spoons, close up shots of greasy over colour saturated fast food, weird…

Yeah, I live in a townhouse with husband and two kids. 3 bedrooms, 2 bath and around 1150 sq foot. We have lots of storage which is great, but I can see that it’s going to get pretty cramped as the kids get bigger. Also because we don’t own it we can’t really do much to make the footage that we have work for us…

The Flatlands in Melbourne CBD. It doesn’t exist anymore but it was where I learned to roll a joint, got addicted to tobacco, a place to watch the skater boys and pool our meager monies to buy junk food. A place to run to after being chased by security when caught shoplifting. I also had my photo taken there that…

I remember seeing something like this when I was a kid. My dad and his friend had been fishing and caught some rather large fish. Have no idea what. Anyway when my dad’s friend had beheaded and gutted them and cut them into smaller pieces they were still twitching. It was so fascinating to me, but no one ever…
