Wow. I wonder if he thinks that human vaginas have crazy twists and turns and dead ends in it like some other animals do

Awww man, I missed the news of his funeral. How sad.

Instead, Bonevac writes, because pregnancy is the result of "voluntary and consensual sexual intercourse,"

So apparently you can't get pregnant when you're raped. That's great to know /s

I ended up ranting a bit so feel free to ignore this comment 🫣

It's so shitty too because even if you spent years or even decades paying your bills on time, if you hit a few hard months you are completely fucked. None of these companies, not the government, not even the community gives a shit. Everyone just tells you to apply for food stamps, go to a food bank, apply for section 8, etc etc, without realizing that (at least where I am) they actively vote for and support policies that prevent most people from accessing those things. Not to mention food banks have so much moldy shit it's not worth standing in line for 5+ hours to get nothing edible and then have to go to a different place next week because god forbid you go to the same food bank twice in a month. And then section 8... So many places their waitlists are closed for 10-20 years! If you get accepted during that time you still have to apply, find a participating landlord, and jump through 5,000 hoops before you can even plan to move in somewhere. And don't get me started on healthcare!

It's ridiculous how much rebuilding takes, at least in the US, and how much racism and classism plays into it.

I went to NOLA like 5 years after Hurricane Katrina and most of the houses I saw in "certain" (poor) neighborhoods still had the spray paint on them from first responders. Also one of the (predominantly black) universities there I don't think had fully rebuilt either at that point while the other (predominantly white) university had just gotten a new sports field.

I just can't imagine being in a war torn place where much of the world hardly acknowledges you as a human and trying to rebuild your community.

It just blows my mind every day the cruelty in this world - and the fact that there are so many genocides happening simultaneously. I still remember when I was a small child finding out that WW2 did not hold the only genocide the world had ever or would ever see. I still can't quite wrap my head around it.

If you go to a physical therapist, make sure they actually consider your other health issues (if any).

My recent experience: I tried multiple PTs. One said they were familiar with my issues, but kept trying to make me do things that were painful and then tried to gaslight me by saying I wasn't actually in pain. Another one didn't even ask about my other health issues (which absolutely affect their work), and then proceeded to send like 6 different assistants in to guide me through the exercises. None of them asked me how the exercises were for me and I wasn't even told how long I was supposed to do them for. I finally just booked an appointment with a PT that I already know is good, but I can't get in for a few months and it's a couple hours round trip to go in person. It sucks but at least with them I can trust relatively well that they aren't going to actively harm or gaslight me.

Same issues in my neck of the woods. Since they all feel the same why I tend to pick the ones that at least talk to (some) residents.

If only that person could be with him every day of his life...maybe he wouldn't be half as annoying

And then there's me. I hate the smell of cold chicken but loveeee cooked chicken.

I believe you are looking for this

Someone in the comments said Germanotta is a liberal plant trying to make Trump supporters look bad.

I don't think anyone needs to try to make Trump supporters look bad...

I know it's still online, but I'm not sure if you've done this already. I personally join community groups on Facebook and see how they interact with people. It's been quite telling.

Pick on someone your own size!

Wait. They redefined it in 2019 but I thought that "new" way was what I did in school 🤔

What would happen is I would require you to also send a fly to sit on the wall in said apartments so we can enjoy the fallout together

She sued him a few years ago and lost, so was ordered to pay his attorney fees

I was very surprised by this part of the article:

Trump made careful effort not to mention or criticize the jury in a press conference on Friday morning.

Fuck

Fascinating

For sure
