  1. The 6-month-old puppy has finally surpassed his big brother Edgar. Puppy is at 65.2 lbs today, and Edgar is 59 lbs at 4 years old. He's gonna be a big'un.
  2. The dogs stood and barked at the couch till we looked under it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. My dogs during the first storm here in 78727. Suuuure you want to go outside. Lightning and thunder are starting to pick up again.
  4. Where'd you get the water buffalo horn? My two are insanely heavy chewers and these are the only things that last, and I've never had one that smelled. We've also had luck with really thick rope toys.
  5. I appreciate this. Thank you. I'll have more to say in the morning but wanted to acknowledge this tonight.
  6. I'm genuinely curious as to your thoughts (and those of the other pro-lifers in this thread) on punishing men who fund/approve of/push women to have abortions, or if you think any punishment should rest solely on the woman. I haven't seen any of you address this topic although it's been brought up several times.

  8. I, for one, love your brand of liberated woman. Surly bitches unite.
  9. I can't even discuss the awfulness that is Bran right now. I will say that Sansa's and Arya's endings worked, independent of the other shit that went down.
  10. What was the entire point of R+L=J?? Jesus Christ.
  11. Is it murder if a woman decides to terminate because she finds out at 8 weeks gestation that she has stage 3 kidney cancer and treatment to save her life will irreparably harm the baby? What about if she finds out at 19 weeks that the baby has trisomy 18 and might make it to term, but will only live for a few painful minutes after birth, so she decides to induce at 22 weeks to spare the baby and she and her family any more pain and heartache? And yes, I have close friends who dealt with both of those awful situations and fuck anyone who would call either one murder. The decision whether or not to have an abortion is usually the farthest thing from black and white possible, and while we're all allowed different opinions about it, I would love it if people would stop calling it murder. Doing so is unnecessarily inflammatory and makes it difficult to have a reasonable discussion.
  12. It has to do with them because discussing them in the context of abortion showcases the rampant hypocrisy of many anti-abortion advocates. For example, many of the same people who wax poetic on their self-righteous soapboxes about saving babies' lives are the same ones who are ok with denying government assistance to families in poverty while yammering about how they should pull themselves up by their own bootstraps. You (the general you) shouldn't get to go on about how we need to pass legislation to make abortion illegal while denying people services and assistance that would help prevent them from getting to that point. I don't think anyone here will disagree that having abortions to "prevent their plights" should be the absolute last resort for anyone in that situation, but we as a nation could do a much better job of helping people to not end up in that position in the first place.
  13. This entire subject is exhausting, especially considering that no one ever discusses penalties for men who fund abortions, or in any way acknowledges that women can't get pregnant on their own when talking about punitive measures. If you still need proof that this isn't really about babies, look no further. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Sometimes it is really depressing to be a woman.
  15. Matt Walsh is, unfortunately, very real. I'd tell you to go read more of the stuff he's written but your head would explode.
  16. Geez, I had no idea Rory McCann was that huge.
  17. Regardless of the story itself, the acting was phenomenal. We've never seen Cersei cry, or see Tyrion slack-jawed in shock. The Hound's whole demeanor as he fought his brother was fantastic. I'm at least grateful that the actors were able to get everything they could out of the script.
  18. This is what I thought, too. They were Chekhov's gunning the bells like crazy but it didn't play out like I hoped. When Jaime showed up with Cersei, I was expecting him to be Arya in No One mode.
  19. Then and now. The "little" one is almost 50 lbs at 5 months old. [emoji51] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. I always forget that she's Rashida Jones' mom.
  21. Never go with a hippie to a second location.
  22. Came across this after Patton Oswalt tweeted it with "how in the who in the why in the actual fuck". I've done some googling and am pretty sure, but not 100% sure, that it's real.
  23. Someone should erect a statue in the emailer's honor.
  24. Crazy downpour in Milwood. I've got one dog barking to be let outside, the dipshit, and the other one (5-month-old puppy) freaking at every boom of thunder.
