“My love for my best friend turned into hate. I can’t even look at her without getting the urge to slap her. She did nothing.”
I saw this post among the slew of comments on this Planned Parenthood post regarding the decision on the after 20-week abortions ban in Arizona.
It was nice to see a conservative man standing up to the anti-choice bullies on the page.
Two diagrams of describing theological positions
A smart and concise explanation!
This is excellent.
Now let me print this and whip it out next time someone tells me I can’t be an agnostic atheist.
We don’t need a melting pot in this country, folks. We need a salad bowl. In a salad bowl, you put in the different things. You want the vegetables - the lettuce, the cucumbers, the onions, the green peppers - to maintain their identity. You appreciate differences.

Only one percent of rapists are arrested, and only one percent of those arrested are convicted (Russell 1984). Those who are convicted serve little time before being put back on the streets. Some are freed because the prisons are overcrowded. Women are encouraged to walk in groups, to not go out at night, or to go out only in the company of a male. Rather than effectively stopping rape by locking up rapists, our system “locks up” women. Probably because women do stay off the streets, “more rapes take place in or near the home than any other single place” (Gordon and Riger 1989 p.14). Despite women’s best precautions, we are not safe from rape in this culture.

Animal fun fact: Chinchillas can’t get wet. Their fur retains too much water and will start to grow mold. So they bathe by rolling around in dust.
Chinchilla fun fact: Chinchillas have around 20 hairs per follicle; unlike humans who have 2-3 hairs per follicle. Because their fur is so dense, they cannot get fleas or other parasites. The bugs will suffocate in their fur.
What cuties
Chinchilla fun fact: Petting one of those awesome little guys feels like touching a motherfucking cloud.
