How many Freudian analysts does it take to change a lightbulb?

afternoonsnoozebutton:

Two. One to change it, and the other to hold the penis.

LADDER.

I MEANT LADDER.

What the Bible says about...

christiantheatheist:

Suicide

It’s better to kill yourself (or have someone assist your suicide) than to be killed by a woman.

And a certain woman cast a piece of a millstone upon Abimelech’s head, and all to brake his skull. Then he called hastily unto the young man his armourbearer, and said unto him, Draw thy sword, and slay me, that men say not of me, A women slew him. And his young man thrust him through, and he died. — Judges 9:52-53

Suicide is a noble thing if it results in the death of your enemies (including civilians).

And Samson took hold of the two middle pillars upon which the house stood, and on which it was borne up, of the one with his right hand, and of the other with his left. And Samson said, Let me die with the Philistines. And he bowed himself with all his might; and the house fell upon the lords, and upon all the people that were therein. So the dead which he slew at his death were more than they which he slew in his life. — Judges 16:29-30

Suicide must be a good thing since Jesus did it.

Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. — John 10:17-18

At the end of the world many will try to commit suicide to escape God’s torments, but God won’t let them.

And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them. — Revelation 9:6

Eileen submitted: Animals practice birth control too

Wooly spider monkeys in Brazil eat certain plants that increase their estrogen level when food is low to have a lower chance of pregnancy.

And baboons eat abortifacient plants when a new male becomes alpha male to prevent that male from killing their young once it is born.

So much for abortion and birth control being “unnatural”. Apparently monkeys get more choice than human females do.

*moneys may have more rights than people do… but still relevant.

Rabbits and cats can also abort.  The placenta basically reverts and is reabsorbed.

The Two Sides of the Health Care Argument:
  • "Liberals": Obviously the states have been doing a shit job of providing health care for their uninsured, poor, and dying citizens who can't get it from asshole corporations. So the Federal government should do it instead like with civil liberties, roads, Medicare, and the military.
  • Republicans: Well fuck the poor because FREEDOM.

stfuhypocrisy:

Charles M. Blow: “Britain is winning the war on child poverty. The US should be able to, too.”

thesoapboxschtick:

“42% of American children live in low-income homes and about a fifth live in poverty. It gets worse. The number of children living in poverty has risen 33% since 2000… And, according to a 2007 Unicef report on child poverty, the U.S. ranked last among 24 wealthy countries. This is a national disgrace.” 

“In 1994, about 30% of British children were below the country’s poverty threshold. Fifteen years later, that number has fallen to 12%. How did the British do it? It was a three-pronged attack:

1. They established a welfare-to-work program and a national minimum wage (which, at about $9, leaves ours wanting) and instituted tax reductions and credits for low-income workers. They made work more attractive, and people responded. The report said, “Lone-parent employment increased by 12 percentage points — from 45 percent to 57 percent — between 1997 and 2008.” 

2. They raised child welfare benefits, especially for families with small children, whether or not the parents worked.

3. They invested directly in the lives of young children with things like doubling paid maternity leave, providing universal preschool, assisting with child care and allowing parents of young children to request flexible work schedules.

The British example shows that child poverty is not an intractable problem. If we can rise above the impulse to punish parents and focus on protecting children, we might replicate Britain’s success.

Come on pro-lifers, you should be on board with this!

One of NOM’s Top Secret Donors Revealed: Mitt Romney  → hrc.org

We often talk about how hard NOM works to hide their donors – even if it means circumventing the law – but now, we’ve learned the identity of one of their high-profile financial supporters: Mitt Romney.

Financial documents obtained by HRC reveal that Mitt Romney donated $10,000 to the National Organization for Marriage in 2008 – essentially funding NOM’s strategy of using racial division and unfounded scare tactics to attack LGBT equality, at the same time that NOM was fighting for Prop 8 in California.
