Or he’s crying like a baby because he got caught and knows he’s in a world of shit.

We aren’t and we don’t need to be. A lot of people have some form of cognitive disability. They’re still responsible for their actions so far as they’re able to understand them. If someone’s functioning at a level where he’s able to carry out a plan to threaten to cut someone else with a knife unless she allows him to…

Who gives a fuck?

Its why I’m optimistic. There are two Hilary Clintons: the intelligent and capable woman and the sleazy duplicitous liar of right and left wing fantasy. She’s constantly underestimated until people actually see her in action.

When the debates come around and Trump actually has to share the stage with the genuine…

The narratives that have built up about Clinton being a terrible campaigner and Trump being a political genius are going to change now that we’re (almost)into the general election. She’s going to destroy him, and I’m going to love watching it.

Brilliant. Clinton is so much better than she’s given credit for. She’s intelligent, thoughtful, and experienced. She’s made mistakes, but so have we all. Plus, she’s learned from them, which unfortunately cannot be said for Trump.

The Skeptic’s Guide to the Universe did this too. They have a science-history segment they do, and during one of them they said that they had gotten complaints about focusing on women too much, and then they went back and counted and found it was like 4:1 in favor of men, at which point they committed to talking about…

When we exist it’s just TOO MUCH.

Damn! I love it when they lay the smack down. Once, out at the range, a visiting officer commented on how there were "so many women out here." There were exactly four of us. We pretty much just rolled our eyes and were like "Yes, sir."

if the story is true, he ODed a few days before this and had to be brought back to life with Narcan. to overdose twice in one week means he was not using his scripts as prescribed and was abusing them.

He was planning on entering rehab. I love Prince to death, but it’s safe to say someone heading to rehab considers themself an addict.

If you have an injury or surgery, DO NOT take narcotic pain meds longer than a week.

i don’t agree with this post, if I’m understanding you correctly. Which I may not be, it’s pretty early here. For example, a week of narcotic medication only? For ANY type of surgery or illness? And yeah, life wasn’t an unmitigated hell scape of pain for everyone before the 1990s but it was for some people. It still…

You... don’t really know what you’re talking about. I take 10 mg of extended-release morphine every 12 hrs for my rheumatoid arthritis and it’s allowed me to continue working and stay off of disability.

My parents used leaches and harnesses on all us kids when we were toddlers, as every one of their kids was a complete ADHD case who would get overstimulated in crowded public places, and then do stupid, stupid shit.

I'm also positive someone else saw the kid climb the rail, but too many parents (including my wife) have this belief that no one can tell anything to their baby. So no one probably said anything.

Considering Jane thinks gorillas shouldn’t be in zoos at all, I can understand the “whatever” part. At least it isn’t facing life in prison for the crime of being a gorilla any longer.

to the hysterical outrage of many

Yeah, I read her entire note as “I disagree with the choice you made but I’m not judging you, you did what you felt you had to. Here’s some professional advice re: the other gorillas.”

She’s in her 80s ... I think her use of “whatever” was not in the dismissive tone you use it here.
