Abuse comes in many forms. Check out Mic.com’s latest article on non-physical relationship violence and join the conversation.

Abuse isn’t always physical, but that doesn’t mean it’s not excruciatingly painful and wrong.

"Cain killed Abel with a stone" is not a suitable argument against gun regulation. It's just not. We aren't talking about a guy and a stone. We are talking about one guy being able to kill and injure over 100 people because he had the weaponry to do so. If that same man had walked in that night club with a fucking stone this would have been a very different story.

"If you want to marry a girl, you ask her father." - Modelo Commercial Thanks for that misogynistic piece of wisdom Modelo. When you only devote one sentence of your commercial to a male-female relationship, you might not want to boil it down to a male to male transaction. FYI: If you want to marry a girl, you ask her.

OMG, saw this over on Facebook.  I am SCREAMING inside.

Religious marriage and legal marriage are two different things. Why is that so difficult to understand? Your religious leaders can choose who they want to marry in a religious ceremony, but that does not give them jurisdiction over legal marriage. In America, legal marriage is the government's job, not your religion's. No one is dictating that your priest, reverend, or minister must preside over same-sex marriages so give it a rest already. This ruling does not affect you! All you have to do is mind your own damn business. It's not that hard once you accept that you are NOT God.

My mom was half asleep, but said this little gem about our dog Zoey, "She would give you the face off her face. If you didn't have a face and needed one, she would give you her's."

Heartwarming Pics Of Children Who Were Just Adopted

[somethingratchet]

I love adoption stories. My mom adopted 3 kids and she never let us or anybody else make a difference out of the 6 of us. My biological brother had the same name as my adopted brother and people could not understand why my mom would name 2 sons in succession, Johnny. But we wouldn’t explain it. Adopt kids. Make it normal. Not the the thing u do simply when u cant.

That is fucking terrifying. As an American, it is also mortifying. The ignorance and hostility shown here is sickening. I am so sorry.

America’s Id is running for president. Trump is the part of your brain that’s, like, at 3am going, ‘Let’s go take a shit in a mailbox’

My first period after Easter is rough. It's like a coke addict got a key to the evidence locker. I wake up when the supply runs out, covered in candy wrappers, colored grass, and a few stray jelly beans, with no recollection of how I got there other than the distant memory of the onset of a chocolate craving and the heady realization I was in house full of chocolate. That bunny didn't stand a chance.
