Correspondingly, if you just kept doing it the same way every time, it wouldn’t be much good.

Zoo Kid - “Out Getting Ribs”
I was under the impression that people born in the 90s don’t have souls, but according to P’ork this kid is 16.

GOP attacks on women
1) Republicans not only want to reduce women’s access to abortion care, they’re actually trying to redefine rape. After a major backlash, they promised to stop. But they haven’t.
2) A state legislator in Georgia wants to change the legal term for victims of rape, stalking, and domestic violence to “accuser.” But victims of other less gendered crimes, like burglary, would remain “victims.”
3) In South Dakota, Republicans proposed a bill that could make it legal to murder a doctor who provides abortion care.(Yep, for real.)
4) Republicans want to cut nearly a billion dollars of food and other aid to low-income pregnant women, mothers, babies, and kids.
5) In Congress, Republicans have proposed a bill that would let hospitals allow a woman to die rather than perform an abortion necessary to save her life.
6) Maryland Republicans ended all county money for a low-income kids’ preschool program. Why? No need, they said. Women should really be home with the kids, not out working.
7) And at the federal level, Republicans want to cut that same program, Head Start, by $1 billion. That means over 200,000 kids could lose their spots in preschool.
8) Two-thirds of the elderly poor are women, and Republicans are taking aim at them too. A spending bill would cut funding for employment services, meals, and housing for senior citizens.
9) Congress voted yesterday on a Republican amendment to cut all federal funding from Planned Parenthood health centers, one of the most trusted providers of basic health care and family planning in our country.
10) And if that wasn’t enough, Republicans are pushing to eliminate all funds for the only federal family planning program.(For humans. But Republican Dan Burton has a bill to provide contraception for wild horses. You can’t make this stuff up). (via MoveOn.org)
THOROUGHLY DISGUSTED
Republicans in the House vote to cut the federal funding for Planned Parenthood, and at the same time they vote to allow Pentagon to sponsor NASCAR.
I just, I have no words.
what the mother fuck ?!?!?!?!?!?!
