  • You are correct. A cognition tests look to see if you are having severe mental cognitive issues. The questions are extremely basic like doing connect the dots or identifying a lion.

  • I do love that Boeing is like "we have no idea what the fuck went wrong. Here's the data cause we give up." Boeing sure is turning de a new leaf and putting safety first. /s

  • I'm going to guess that this is because we said his preferred gubernatorial candidate should fuck off?

  • It's still good but they generally have to keep two residences: one on their state and one in/near DC. That's not cheap.

  • It's rich that he is claiming she has a low IQ when he got gentlemen Cs while at Penn. One of his professors called him his worst student ever.

  • He also pardoned a child rapist because the guy's family gave him $50k.

  • Muhammed Yunus is the viene acting PM Which is a good sign.

  • Oh don't get me wrong, there is a lot of messed up shit in the Quran. It was written by a dude in the 600s. And while it may have been progressive then in comparison to Christianity, it is still pretty messed up by today's standards. The views on punishment, slavery, and women fail pretty hard from today's perspective. I am only saying with regards to divorce.

    Your abortion example is interesting because the only spot in the Bible that could related to abortion is actually supportive of it. It is prescribed for a possibly unfaithful woman.

    As far as things like this being cultural, you see similar shit with honor killings in backwards areas of India that are by Hindus.

  • Well that is a surprise. They wanted to throw him in prison a few years ago for working past retirement age.

  • I do love a good meme but McMahon is a rapist who regularly puts his employees in mortal danger with little safety.

  • I give them props for asking in the first place. Most journalists would never think of asking hard hitting questions because that would post them access in the future. This journalist realized that there was no possibility of her having access in the future anyway and went with it.

  • There are 1.6 billion Muslims in the world. You really saying that all of them think this is acceptable? Shit like this is because of misogynistic local practices that would happen regardless of Islam.

  • I do not give Islam a pass. But there is nothing in the Quran that advocates for something like this. There is certainly quite a bit of misogyny in the Quran but when it comes to divorce, it is much more open than Christianity and Judaism. A woman can seek Khul' and have arbitration for a divorce.

    Shit like this is local cultural practices that would happen regardless of the area being Islamic or not.

  • Most people who claim they are 1/16th or 1/32nd native are not at all. It is a very popular family myth. My mom told me that her mother said her great grandmother was native. I viewed that as possible since my grandmother was an orphan. I did 23andme and there is no native American. I also went through ancestry.com to build out my family tree and indeed there was no native American in there. The 60s and 70s were a period of growing acknowledgement of Native communities and I feel like that was kind of a way that people made it seem like they were at least nominally supportive.

    Or it was just one of the batty things about my grandmother. Orphanages back then were simply work houses. You did school for a little bit and then went to work manufacturing. The discipline must have been pretty strict considering one of the teachers beat her so bad that she lost an eye.

  • That reminds me of the scene in Parks and Rec where someone asks where Tom Haverford (Aziz Ansari) is from. He responds Illinois. Then the person asks "but where are your parents from?" He responds "Georgia."

  • You are assuming that the birthers use logic. If that was the case, they would not have cared where Obama was born because his mother was an American born in Kansas. That would make him American even if he was born in Kenya or Canada (like Ted Cruz).

  • I had such high hopes for Tunisia since it seemed like they were the only ones that were successful in it.

  • This has zilch to do with Islam which allows divorce.

  • Tom from MySpace did it right. Took a massive paycheck and then fucked off.
