    Minimum Wage The Ruinous Compassion.

    The facts were provided earlier in the thread; there's no need for me to repeat the facts, simply because what was too emotionally devastating to digest was simply glossed over, the first time. No need to change the font colors; a simple correct utilization of the "quote" feature works fine...

    Feminists and feminism?

    Oh, my!!! Less-strong, less-powerful "feminists" accomplished all of that, all on our own? "Murdering unborn babies", "dressing up little girls like sluts", AND destroying families and women's proper place in the world? We do this, all by ourselves??? AND, still manage to raise children...

    Minimum Wage The Ruinous Compassion.

    @ A TruLibby: As I'd previously stated, stories *is* stories and "FACTS *IS* FACTS." According to The Rules of the Internet, because my font is bigger, bolder, capitalized, and underlined, I am *righter*...ergo, I win.

    For Members Who Drink Alcohol

    Wine ("I said, I had a bad experience") and tequila. I am a living testament to all the horror stories anyone's every heard about tequila. Except Tequila Rose...that doesn't count as tequila, dammit.

    Got for free

    It's a toss-up between the $1200 [first-ever] jackpot AND free set of Glass-Lok casserole dishes while gambling a few weeks back or common sense, provided free-of-charge at birth and honed over almost 55 years of living on this planet. :drunk:

    Confederate flag prom photo. Racism or Ignorance?

    I didn't realize "racism" and "ignorance" were mutually-exclusive; it appears they are joined at the hip and that one can not exist without the other.

    Paraguay blocks abortion request for raped 10 year old girl

    Yup. Why? It was a product of rape, she doesn't want to continue the pregnancy, the mother who's been arrested for "breaching her duty of care" doesn't want the pregnancy continued, and the rapist who is (presumably) the father of the fetus has fled...indicating his further lack of interest in...

    House passes bill banning abortions after 20 weeks

    Personally, while Pro-Choice, I have no problem with putting a time-limit on when The Great A can be performed. If a woman has chosen to terminate a pregnancy for whatever reason, she should know it - and have dealt with it - long before the 5th month of the pregnancy. I do worry, however...

    This question stumps Republicans

    A sad commentary, all the way around. Many of the same people who bash whomever the current POTUS is - the leader of [still] the most powerful nation in the world, "whether we like it or not" (though we ARE working hard to absolve the US of that responsibility) - are the very ones who lament...

    (?) Stuarth's Dragon (?)

    I got this. Having given birth before, what you're supposed to do is: 1. Gain at least 25 pounds to "nourish the baby" of which 10 will remain with you for a lifetime to "remind you of the baby"; 2. Have strange food cravings, which you MUST satiate (see Item #1); 3. Experience hormonal...

    Columbia Students Claim Greek Mythology Needs A "Trigger Warning"

    From the OP's own cited article: "Critics on both the left and the right have expressed concern that these trigger warnings are impinging upon free speech and undermining the meaning of a liberal arts education, where students from all walks of life are exposed to new and often disturbing...

    Minimum Wage The Ruinous Compassion.

    Whenever there is a proposed increase to minimum wage, there are always stories of capitalists deciding/threatening to take their balls and simply go home...i.e., to knee-jerkingly react to the fact that they, personally, maybe won't have as much money at the end of the year to provide their...

    Feminists and feminism?

    Personally, I like feminists, both men and women, alike...but, then again, I DO have a dog in the fight. Come to think of it...any heterosexual man who would like to permanently hook up with a woman should have a vested interest in 'feminism', since they'll be combining funds, one way or...
