The show was well produced, acted and written. It was faithful enough to Marvel Comics to not piss all of us comic nerds off. Anything would piss off some comic book nerds because you know, comic book nerds. Read more

I had prepared myself for them, but at the same time, I’m glad they resisted the urge to engage in fanservice and focused on the narrative and characters who were important. I think if they’d had Strange show up in the final post-credits scene it would have been fine, but I’m also happy with that scene as it played… Read more

I am tired of being accused of teaching religion when I teach evolution. It is just a part of Biology that is well documented science. I have even had Chemistry and Physics teachers accuse me of promoting the “religion of evolution.”

For F%*KS SAKE GET EVOLUTION OFF THAT LIST, It is a natural process that science has been able to document and explain. IT IS NOT A RELIGION AND SHOULD NOT BE LISTED AS ONE.

I shared on another article, but I got my first shot two weeks ago when the clinic that my wife works at was giving vaccines.
It was 4:30 on a Friday and they had some doses that they needed to use by the end of the day or they had to get rid of them. I happened to be in my office that day, which is only a few minutes… Read more

I’m 5'10 and 335 lbs. I also work in healthcare. I am now fully vaccinated. I have a complicated relationship with my body, but like Megan, I feel like in this situation it’s helping me out. Read more

When it’s your turn, unapologetically get that shot. I have no patience for the stupid people who judge this. It does not matter why you’re eligible. You’re in line and we need to keep the line moving until everyone gets in. Read more

Yep, it’s explicitly stated. This is in reference to federal student loans though, not private. Private loans continue to do whatever they want, for the most part. Read more

One thing I don’t see mentioned at all is the cost factor. Most American insurance plans don’t pick up any of the bill, and it can get very expensive, very quickly. My family is in a fortunate position and are lucky enough to have a high income, but when my wife used to go to therapy it was a bit of a financial… Read more

We definitely went longer than six lessons... I think we went for like 10 weeks because we kept thinking we were on the cusp of a breakthrough. We put him back in lessons when he was 3 years old and he was a little nervous/cautious but warmed up to it much faster. Read more

I’ve made sure my parents know what I’m not flexible on and what I am. Like, if regular bedtime is 8:30 but they stay up until 9:00 with grandma and grandpa? Fine. Dessert every day they are there instead of once a week? Ok. But spanking? Nope. Riding in the front seat of the car? Nope. Read more

I grew up in a rigidly observant Catholic household and attended Catholic school for 16 years so I’ve had plenty of experience giving up most of the items listed in this article. I no longer practice the faith of my youth but for the past decade I have given up social media for Lent. I often miss a few events that are… Read more

I was gonna say, Sure we don’t need Masculine specific beauty products, but they tend to be cheaper so don’t give brands ideas.
We either need more gender neutral stuff with less pronunced or inexistant smells, and cheaper because of it, or we need more “masculine” products that don’t smell like “Extreme sports for… Read more

I feel like the title and tone here are backwards. Women should be using ‘men’s’ products to avoid the pink tax. My wife’s razors cost more, not mine. Men don’t need ‘masculine,’ beauty products, but neither do women need ‘feminine,’ ones, and if you are wanting to avoid paying more for no reason the products you… Read more

These people are, by and large, NOT tough. Their imagined oppression and keyboard Rambo shit has made them softer, not tougher.

This is a level of intellectual dishonesty that is almost impressive. Read more

You know that covers and samples are not the same thing, right? Read more

Our coward of a governor said he’d “like to know more” before calling for Evans’s resignation. Apparently, “Treason” isn’t enough for our craven governor. Get me the fuck outta this state. Read more

If suddenly being exposed to new viewpoints causes your kid’s worldview to pull a bootlegger’s reverse, you were controlling the viewpoints they were exposed to in the first place. This is a very common thing to happen in conservative households once the kids go to college.
