On Thanksgiving many years ago, my mom surprised me and my brother with our early Christmas gifts. She was giving us the gift of togetherness. She was flying our sister home for Christmas.

Our mean and utterly horrible sister.

My brother asked if his gift could be returned.

That dog is very stressed, maybe setting off some fireworks near it is a solution

Just saw a Botox commercial where a woman talked of her “moderate to severe lines” like it was diagnosis

“This is the worst part of my job. I’m sorry to tell you that you have stage four crows feet”

About twenty years ago my mother developed Religion. We'd never prayed at the table, but she decided Thanksgiving was the time to start. She began thanking God for the food and my uncle who drove 3 hours for his visit muttered "I'm the one who's been cooking since dawn, you ought to thank me."

Reminder for humanity: kids are not a bandaid to solve your relationship problems, nor are they a way to fix your psychological problems. Get your shit in order on your own before you create kids who have to deal with you and the fallout of you for the rest of their lives.

This is a disturbing read & so frustrating. So many people are completely ignorant about how dangerous childbirth was in the past, both to the infant & mother. Even if it didn't kill one or both, permanent lifetime damage could be done. While modern medicine is flawed, it's so much better than this.

Between my sinuses and my joints, I feel as though somewhere in the past, I may have made some sort of bad fairy tale deal to have the ability to always know what the weather conditions are, not realizing how it would play out.

Today is Trans Day of Remembrance. May those lost in the past year be remembered fondly, may their loved ones find some peace and healing, and may humanity move forward so there doesn't have to be a day of remembrance to remember those who were persecuted and harmed for just being themselves.

I don't consider myself a great cook by any measure, but I get a kick out of my kid texting multiple times a week to complain about the food off to her university, detailing how much she misses my cooking.

after this many years of watching president grandpa get mad at whatever he sees on television i'm prepared to vote for whichever candidate can most snobbishly say "i don't even own a TV". the more they look down on the debate moderator for asking about it the better

The issue isn't "AHAHAHA, GAY". The main issue about that particular news is that El Cheeto didn't want certain information getting out, setting himself up for being blackmailed and manipulated by Putin, which leads to questions about exactly how that played out.

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

What they don’t seem to get is that normal people hate pedophiles regardless of their political affiliation.

"Can the white house confirm that President Trump has performed fellatio on former President Bill Clinton?"

Look, all I’m gonna say on The Current Topic is that moderation needs to be consistent - if you’re gonna drop the hammer for quoting song lyrics and getting pissed about child rapists, yet you let slide accounts that say trans people shouldn’t exist, then yeah, there’s gonna be some questions.

I really hope Megyn Kelly's daughters have safe adults in their life, because it really sounds as though their mom isn't one.

Yes. Prosecute them ALL. If they knew, if they were complicit, if they participated. Every last one of them. I don’t care which party, who they are, how beloved or rich or supposedly important. See how this works? Do the crime, pay the time. Those girls deserve justice.
