Me. Me! Meeeee! It’s all about MEEEEE!
Those poor babies.

“Where are the kids?”

Those poor babies.
Hubby & grandparents aren’t helping at all … no one seems to understand at all what to expect out of stay-at-home parenting.
The same people who will spend the time to learn to golf or do yoga or any number of highly skilled hobbies seem to believe they’ll know what to do when babies come via instinct.
The one small glimmer of hope for her is that she believes she’ll come out a better person on the other side of this trial. If she keeps that attitude, she will because having child DOES grow most people up. It needn’t have been this hard, though.

Proof at last of condescension.

Migration as a “human right”? That effectively abolishes all international borders.
I used to think the “New World Order, Global Government” nutters were, well, nuts. (o.O)

“Where are the kids?”
Proof, if any were needed, that man never quite grow up completely.
I would have smacked the husband so hard …
It would still have been worth it.

“Educated”
As one wag puts it,

1. Go to college.
2. Accumulate debt.
3. Pick stupid major.
4. Graduate with useless degree.
5. Play victim.
6. Blame society.
7. Vote Democrat.

An example, one of many in the archives.

I feel I ought to have a secret wine cellar.

The sign-carrying, black-masked protestors in the replies seem… well, disappointed in the “ignorance”.

Was she mental before Gender Studies, or is that the actual cause?
You do have to wonder why anyone in their right mind would pay for a “gender studies” course – a subject that’s widely and rightly ridiculed as intellectually flatulent, actually stupefying, and which is generally taught, badly, by someone whose sole qualification is in English literature, rather than, say, biology or neuroscience or evolutionary psychology.
Though there’s little if any maths, or much of anything too demanding, which may hold some appeal.

I feel I ought to have a secret wine cellar.
You mean you don’t already have one at the Guild of Evil™ Headquarters? I’m disappointed – no lair worth the name should be without one.

You mean you don’t already have one at the Guild of Evil™ Headquarters?
Alas, no. But we’ve repurposed the never-used dishwasher to serve as a glorified wine rack. Albeit one that’s also cluttered with takeaway menus and bewildering blender attachments, the functions of which, even now, years later, have yet to be determined.

“Are you willing to die for YouTube shit? … Death is coming to you.“

“Are you willing to die for YouTube shit? … Death is coming to you.”
The willingness of “moderate liberals” to tolerate and defend such thugs shows that liberals are not the moderate and reasonable fellow citizens that they pretend to be.

“Are you willing to die for YouTube shit? … Death is coming to you.”
And the police do nothing. The “justice system” does nothing. Yet shoe on the other foot and it would be a watershed moment for the history books. I’ve seen this day coming for 20 years. When I spoke up about it, to “conservative” people no less, I was the one with problems processing reality. Don’t ask what I see 20 years from now. Hopefully I’ll be dead. Prolly will be one way or another anyhow.

With the season of bonhomie fast approaching …
Bonhomie? Sweet Baby Jesus, please don’t tell me there’s going to be bonhomie.

It appears that feminism causes weight gain.
It’s a feedback loop, a mechanism for both sowing and harvesting energy from disattraction, as it were.

Well, if I can’t bring my famous Kazhakstanian bonhomie recipe, I guess i’ll just have to bring eggs pickled in hump fat!

But most of all…
6. It’s an individual’s own decision to decide what is best for themselves, their health, and their body.

I agree completely, but then I’m of a rather Libertarian viewpoint.
Do EF really want to run with that? I rather fear that they haven’t started to thing through the consequences of thinking that people should be in charge of their own lives.
The rest of it is nonsense. I don’t judge a person’s obesity based on their BMI, because I don’t know their BMI (but I do know how fat they look). I do judge people on other aspects of their health, such as their management of stress and sleep (albeit I keep it to myself). I do consider overweight but active people to be managing themselves better than skinny unhealthy people. I doubt I am alone in that.

It’s an individual’s own decision to decide what is best for themselves, their health, and their body.
It’s funny that decisions about diet and exercise and other lifestyle behaviors (e.g. sex, drugs, rock’n’roll) are strictly individual and not to be questioned, but the health consequences of these decisions are a societal problem requiring the participation of all (or at least everybody with money).
I’ve argued with quite a few people that they really don’t want me to be in charge of paying for their health care, because I’m not going to take on that responsibility without also taking on the management of their lifestyle so that I might more effectively control my costs. (They generally don’t appreciate that line of reasoning.)

L Frank Baum’s original novel was written in 1900 and the film was made in 1939. Yet all the themes of Trump’s America are there.
Because the “allegory about the gold standard” BS was all played out. These are smart people. They went to college and stuff. Can’t do much real, productive work but they can allegory like there’s no tomorrow.

I’m overweight, I admit it, and blaming the entire world will not make me one ounce thinner.
I will assign David some of the blame for serving hump fat.
