Illegal Immigrants Do Not Get Free Shit
I’m posting this because a spam status is being forwarded around my Facebook newsfeed, and I can’t let this idiocy go without comment.
To those of you among my friends who truly believe that illegal immigrants get free health care, business tax breaks, education, and other benefits… I kindly direct you to factcheck.org.
That assertion is the logical equivalent of a steaming...

Mating turtles shut down runway at JFK - CNN.com →
Cue Barry White…
Per CNN:
Love is in the air at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York. More than 150 turtles crossed over an active runway and disrupted air traffic on Wednesday so that they could continue their mating season.
The diamondback terrapins were trying to get to an ideal location to lay their eggs. That’s a sandy area that happens to be across Runway 4,...

Gay couples to sue NJ, seeking same-sex marriage
Good for them. It’s good to see the momentum from our victory in New York propelling pushes for equal rights elsewhere in the country. Rights such as health care, inheritance of pensions, and hospital visitation and medical decision making should be afforded all couples, regardless of sexual orientation. Per The Kansas City Star:
Seven gay and lesbian New Jersey couples, along with many...
Outcry in America as Pregnant Women Who Lose... →
socialismartnature:
This shit is getting absolutely out of hand. The right-wing is trying to make it so that during the entirety of the nine months that a woman is pregnant, she literally cedes all autonomy over her life to the government.
Her own embryos become “state property” upon fertilization, with the one exception that she is still responsible for all of the costs, burdens, and labor.

I was just outside watching the sun go down and communing with my thoughts when this strange cat saunters up to me. It climbed up on the step next to me, looked up, hissed, then ran off.
Seriously thinking I just got told to eff myself in catspeak.

An Eiffel Tower is:
In this group sex act, one man penetrates, or “doggies,” a woman from behind while another gets a blowjob in front. During their exertions, the man—jubilant over their good fortune—reach up and high-five each other, thus forming an Eiffel Tower-like shape with their outstretched arms.
Oh my god.
Jubilant over their good fortune.

Abortion Foes' Latest Backdoor Ban - Mother Jones
I have two problems with this. First, it’s a bit disingenuous to claim that the new (so-called) standards are about patient safety, when the obvious and clearly more efficient solution is to require that every hospital in Kansas keep an abortion doctor on staff. Not only would this ensure that every woman seeking an abortion receives adequate care (even though less than 1% experience...

On your 'seven week old aborted fetus'
pcub:
7 week old aborted fetus. Blood has been pumping through it for about a month, there is brain activity, and it can suck it’s thumb. But don’t worry. It’s not a person yet.
Psalm 139:13-14
I decided to delete the photo as it was of low quality and appears to be yet another fake circulating on Tumblr. However, as pcub seems to want to pick and choose their Bible verses to present the...

projectqueer:
With the New York State now the sixth – and largest – state to end the exclusion of same-sex couples from marriage, the American Medical Association (AMA) adopted a policy position declaring that excluding same-sex couples from marriage is “discriminatory.”
The AMA also reaffirms its existing policy to support relationship recognition of gay and lesbian couples as a means of...

North Carolina Gov. Beverly Perdue has vetoed a bill requiring women considering an abortion in the state to get an ultrasound and wait 24 hours after mandated counseling before they could undergo the procedure.
The Democratic governor is an abortion-rights supporter and announced her decision on Monday.
The GOP-led General Assembly could try to override the measure next month.

New Yorkers cheer historic vote in gay pride... →
I am so happy for New York and its citizens, and can only hope we continue to see the states come around this decade.
More than equal rights, however, I look forward to the day where such marriages are cultural norm… when we can simply call them ‘marriages’ instead of a separate category.
Per CNN:
Forty-two years after a police raid sparked rioting and perhaps the birth of...

Interesting commentary. It’s an extremely bold step for any organization to enact a policy that abandons the pledge or the anthem these days. There are some who’d call it treason. It’s perhaps even more bold for an entire church to espouse pacifism in an age where the majority has made warmongering and military strength equivalent to manhood and masculinity.
Personally, I...

Another day, another child-raping priest. It makes me wonder when the parishioners of the Catholic Church are going to take these matters into their own hands and stop attending or giving their money to these monsters. It also makes me wonder why people are so afraid of atheists, when we’re not the ones who’ve institutionalized the commission and coverup of a child-sex ring disquised...

More evidence that Clarence Thomas is not only a hypocritical pervert, but that his vote is for sale to the highest bidder.

Real estate magnate Harlan Crow has been very good to Justice Clarence Thomas, lavishing gifts and other favors on Thomas and his family. Crow provided $500,000 to allow Thomas’ wife to start a Tea Party group, and he once gave Thomas...
