Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

No offense to my friends who have penises, of course.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

ION, ha ha ha ha:

A column penned by the doyenne of right-wing rhetoric Ann Coulter has come under fire for alleged plagiarism, RAW STORY has learned.

Much of Coulter's Jun. 29, 2005 column, “Thou Shall Not Commit Religion,” bears a striking resemblance to pieces in magazines dating as far back as 1985—and a column written for the Boston Globe in 1995.

A RAW STORY examination found Coulter's work to be at worst plagiarism and at best a cut-and-paste repetition of points authored by conservative religious groups in the early 1990s. These groups sought to de-fund the National Endowment for the Arts, detailing projects paid for by the NEA they dubbed “obscene.”

I can't even.

None taken. As always, your perspective is insightful, yet troubling. (Does that make us humans funky monkeys and friction junkies?)

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I didn't watch TV last night-- was this visible?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Is the guy in the foreground wanking? Or am I seeing self-love where it doesn't exist?

Not the channel I was watching. But they did have some odd angled shots of his wife, with a strange expression on her face for the occasion. I'll bet that's why.....

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm totally sending my kids to Auntie Allyson for The Talk.

Me, too.

I, fortunately, was 18 when I had mine so I didn't have t tell my mother. Thing is, she went through an abortion when my oldest sister was 16. Of course, that older sister got pregnant again at 18, hid it from my parents until a week before she had the child.

Both my parents could have dealt with me having an abortion--after the tears, yelling and recrimination. And yet. Didn't tell them. Never told them. Will never tell them. It didn't hurt me to not have them to turn to. I had a friend and my other sister to provide support and hussle me through the asshole protesters trying to stop me from entering the clinic.

Any parenting my parents needed to do, they did way before I got pregnant. It was my own mistake and my own choice. And I don't think the year between 17 and 18 meant a bit of difference in my maturity level so the law would have just made an already tough situation that much harder for me.

I do think my parents are a lot better off not knowing to this day.

Could just be a "comfort hold". I've seen some guys do that in their sleep.
