I'm not sure why Phil is hating on ISIS so much. They really seem like his kind of people. Read more

First of all, I'm tres impressed with the grace with which this dancer handled the snake bite. I had a python, "Monty" (yuk yuk) who I loved dearly but so many of my friends were afraid of her. So for those of you snakeophobes out there, if they didn't bite would you still be afraid of them? I'm genuinely curious. Read more

Why I clicked on the Wiz Khalifa link I will never know. But the booty shaking I was met with made it a good decision. Read more

Dear everyone, this is what the teeth of large non=venomous snakes look like. Love, Your Nightmares

This is getting scary that you can be charged/prosecuted for having a miscarriage. If your body doesn't cooperate like it *should* and carry the fetus to term, be prepared to suffer consequences. As if you can even prevent a miscarriage or that a teenager would know what to do in that situation. Read more

How the shit can you "abandon" a miscarriage? Read more

Fuck Texas; fuck anti-choicers; fuck "prayer" being part of a police investigation; fuck abstinence-centered sex education; and fuck leaving women in crisis (or, in this case, children in crisis!) with no viable options, letting them suffer alone, and then treating them like criminals for doing what they have to do.

OMG, I'm so incredibly jealous! I never wanted a traditional wedding and actually tried to convince my then-fiance to get married at the Star Trek The Experience when it was still in Las Vegas.

"Up until two years ago, I, myself, had never had the privilege of attending any wedding with a theme other than "whoops, she's pregnant" or "might as well."" You Deserve all The Kudos just for this sentence alone. Read more

This sounds like the best wedding. I've never been to a wedding (that wasn't my parents'), but this sounds so much better than those pintrest-y barn weddings. The joy shines through and that's what matters!

Jezzies, if you could have a theme wedding, what would it be?

If I could get away with it, a cyberpunk wedding Read more

Do we REALLY need to have a conversation about the history of American Indian boarding schools run in this country for hundreds of years and their policy of forcibly cutting children's hair in direct violation of their native cultures in an effort to destroy their identities and reshape them as good little Christian Read more

This is what I can't get. Also, at 5 or 6 years old, the other kids are not going to really give a shit that one of their classmates has long hair and they don't. If they ask, it's a good teaching moment to explain to them about how people are can be different or look different but on the inside we're all the same and Read more
