One day a teacher had “show and tell” in class. “Class, does anyone have anything they’d like to share for show and tell?” A little boy named Billy raised his hand. “Yes, Billy?” “Yesterday we made our cats drink gasoline.” “Oh my God!” the teacher gasped. “What happened?” “Well they started running around backwards! Backwards in circles, all over the yard. Just spinning around in backwards circles. Finally they ran into each other ass first!” “Now Billy, don’t say ‘ass,’ say ‘rectum.’…

The ultimate guide to talking to a woman with headphones on

I feel so bad for the men that sign up for the seminars. Google is failing me right now but i remember reading an article where a journalist did an exit poll of men leaving a PUA seminar and most of them are looking for love and a relationship. Not just anonymous sex. And it made me so sad. These PUA guys are preying on both sides! The women they instruct others to harass and their students!

"Free hug man" in Times Square punches woman for not paying him

Wrong. Obama campaigned on universal healthcare in 2008. He tried to pass the public option America’s Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009. But he only had a majority of Congress supporting it, not the required supermajority. What you describe is what came after, in late 2009 and 2010, once that public option battle was lost in mid-2009. Once it was clear that Democrats could never pass a public option by themselves.

"Free hug man" in Times Square punches woman for not paying him

Absolutely. That’s essentially their gameplan in general: to prevent any possible progress whatsoever that might help people, whether it’s healthcare, veterans’ benefits, equal pay for women, medical aid for 9/11 first responders, aid to victims of the water crisis in Flint Michigan, etc, in order to make Obama as ineffectual a president as possible. Their stated goal is to destroy his legacy by preventing anything whatsoever from getting done.

It makes me wonder if the judge isn’t getting a little kickback from these counsellor-specific referrals.

There’s a lot of problems with AA besides the god-talk. For instance, the whole angle that you as a wretched addict are an evildoer who must necessarily hurt others as part of the additiction, will never “be okay”, and have no personal agency. “We admitted we were powerless over alcohol and that our lives had become unmanageable.” Bullshit. If that were true, then nobody would ever get sober. It only encourages people to embrace learned helplessness and engage in AA’s cycle of codependent f…

Non-religious woman who refused judge's order to meet with Christian counselor loses her sons

I think the difference we’re having here is that while I’m okay with a counselor offering religiously-based services as part of a private practice, I’m completely intolerant of the court ordering someone to go see such a counselor who can’t do their job in a secular manner. Basically I think both the court and the counselor are in hot water, but in this specific case I’d rather focus on the court’s abuse of authority, rather than the counselor’s petty criminality of conducting business in a lib…

So. . . she’s an “exorcist” then? OK, let’s see here. . . the counselor is demanding that someone believe in god as part of a court-ordered counseling, clearly unconstitutional (imagine if the reverse were going on, that the counselor demanded a religious person renounce god as part of the program), I’m not sure what having a parent write an essay on “What God is to me” is except very obvious (court ordered) proselytising. she is illegally using a public library to do her job on the chea…

Non-religious woman who refused judge's order to meet with Christian counselor loses her sons

I once had a guy knock on my door asking if I wanted to go to church with him that Sunday (he wasn’t JW or Mormon, I think his parish priest just asked the parishioners to try and increase the flock), I replied: “Sure, but I’m actually a Satanist, I’ll go to church with you tomorrow if you come to a Black Mass with me tonight up in the woods near Salem, you don’t even have to get naked your first time!” He got visibly embarrassed, stuttered something and left.

This is completely off topic, because as has been pointed out before, the mother in this case is having her legal rights trampled, while Kim Davis was trampling other people’s legal rights. However… No. Davis put herself into that job, as an elected official. No one needs to “find her a new job” - she either carries out the job that she actively campaigned to do, and stops preventing her charges from carrying out their job, or she removes herself from the position she was elected into, whic…

Actress Jen Richards explains the problem with casting cis actors in trans roles

I guess that makes sense, but wouldn’t it also apply to the Tom Hanks example? Back in the 90s plenty of people (that is, more than today) talked about homosexuality as a “choice of lifestyle” rather than an inherent human trait.

Actress Jen Richards explains the problem with casting cis actors in trans roles

The other tricky thing here is that, quite frankly, I think a lot of transgender people would prefer to just be themselves. If you’ve transitioned and now identify as female, and you’ve always felt female, then most likely you’re going to prefer to identify as a female actor, rather than specifically a “transgender female actor” who’s limited to those roles. Transgender people don’t want to be seen as just trans. They’re men and women.

Now see, I’m not interested in SRS, but if something like that was available it would make life so much easier, especially for people like myself.

Clean old records with wood glue

So this process could be said to be making a copy of the record, thus killing music??? Do you commonly advocate processes which will inevitably result in the utter destruction of an entire industry?

Speaking of games…

Is it hypocritical for free speech advocates to moderate comments on their own site?

Tell me about this “maintaining the point.” Is this a game you win by posting the same thing over and over?

“Freedom of the press is guaranteed only to those who own one.” Nobody has a problem with what you say to your hearts content at your own blog, or once or twice here as a guest, which we all are here.
