and for those interested, you can find the report HERE

Just in case any dudebros are unclear on what this means: it means that your buddy who totally just had some bitch trying to ruin his life by accusing him of rape…almost certainly actually did rape her.  

Just keep that in mind.

Yeah man, imagine that, bitches don’t be lying.

Can we put this into context? It means that 99.4% of rape allegations are true.

Entitled: If media covered America the way we cover foreign cultures →

jahanzebjz:

Yet another massacre has occurred in the historically war-torn region of the Southern United States – and so soon after the religious festival of Easter.

Brian McConkey, 27, a Christian fundamentalist militiaman living in the formerly occupied territory of Alabama, gunned down three men from an opposing tribe in the village square near Mobile, the capitol, over a discussion that may have involved the rituals of the local football cult. In this region full of heavily-armed local warlords and radical Christian clerics, gun violence is part of the life of many.

Many of the militiamen here are ethnic Scots-Irish tribesmen, a famously indomitable mountain people who have killed civilized men – and each other – for centuries. It appears that the wars that started on the fields of Bannockburn and Sterling have come to America.

As the sun sets over the former Confederate States of America, one wonders – can peace ever come to this land?

"On Periods: Let’s put this shit to bed right now: Women don’t lose their minds when they have period-related irritability. It doesn’t lower their ability to reason; it lowers their patience and, hence, tolerance for bullshit. If an issue comes up a lot during “that time of the month,” that doesn’t mean she only cares about it once a month; it means she’s bothered by it all the time and lacks the capacity, once a month, to shove it down and bury it beneath six gulps of willful silence."

Boston Bombing: The Meaning of Dunkin' Donuts →

micathemineral:

Why Dunkin Donuts matters to Bostonians.

sadly, this very nearly made me teary-eyed

My dad had to do deliveries for his job in some of the outlying boston areas that were under lockdown. He interacted with one dunkin’ donuts employee who was working alone in the store. My dad went over out of curiosity about whether or not it was open, when he found that is was he asked the young woman working why she was working during the lockdown, she said “I asked my boss the same thing.”

I saw a bunch of tweets compiled of people complaining about dunks being closed during the lockdown or praising it for being open. People should realize that those who work at dunks are real humans who are not paid enough or treated well enough to risk their lives to serve coffee… It is so ridiculous that a corporation who risked the lives of its throw away employees is getting positive press from this situation.
