THE GOVERNMENT HAS OFFICIALLY SHUT DOWN!!!

     I'd like to take this grand moment to give a big (S)hole standing ovation to our President and Congress! You once again have proven what your real agenda is and that you couldn't even come together, EVEN on a bi-partisan deal in support of the Nation! Looks like while President Trump wanted to be celebrating all of his accomplishments or lack there of on Friday evening, instead he commenced his Presidential anniversary with a major government shutdown. Though this hasn't been the first government shut down our country has seen, most recent was in 2013 when Congress was unable to come to an agreement on The Affordable Care Act, often referred to as "Obamacare". At the start of the 2013 government shutdown, around 850,000 federal employees were furloughed per day, according to the Office of Management and Budget.
     The big question now is how long will the shut down last and who will this majorly affect? Our military could very well be feeling the biggest impact if Congress doesn't come together on a Bill that could move the economy along. While most Federal employees will still have to report to work with the reality of no pay, including the military. Congress will still be payed and are considered "exempt" from the "Shutdown". Lets keep the (S)hole applause going for the GOP Senators who voted no to a stopgap funding act to continue government services, including Lindsey Graham, Jeff Flake, Mike Lee , Rand Paul and our favorite Toby Turtle stand in, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell who also voted no. While the Dems and Repubs go back to the drawing table, lets make our voices count by keeping the conversation going. These our our elected officials! Lets vote in our favor this next go around!

Trump The Emperor God?

                                                          President Trump reversed his Executive "No Tolerance" order on immigrants crossing the border on last week. The reversal comes on the heels over an outrage across the Country of people expressing their disapproval of the separation of children from their parents while crossing the border. President Trump touted the idea that this was the Democrats fault and that they needed to fix it, both He and his surrogates were on several news media outlets saying that Congress needed to do their job. While many on the left are use to President Trump diverting from responsibility, it seems that the Country called out Trump on his lies this time. The American people seem to be unanimous on the reunifying children with parents, however it does seem to open up some new compartments regarding...

When Women Rape Men

-

       It might come to no surprise, but the idea of  men being raped by women is heavily disputed and even heavily debunked. I believe the scenario people cannot get pass is "how could a big strong man, be raped by a woman?"  Just to be clear, all of the definitions of  rape exclude men in gender, but not with regard to consent. Consent is an important factor when determining if a man can be raped by a woman, after all there are variables that could put a man in a precarious situation to be sexually assaulted. According to the law, only a man can commit rape (as the penetration has to be with a penis). I would argue what if he is under the influence, or in an incapacitated state of mind and the woman sexually assaults him to penetration, if he does not consent, why isn't that rape? What if she used her mouth?     If penetration denotes the rape by forceful penetration of the penis then the law...

Scared of Interracial DATING???

          Starting a conversation about race is not always the easiest thing to do. Recently, one of my friends told me that they had to deal with something that had been extremely challenging for them. Telling his mom that  he was in love with a white woman, he is black by the way.  To clarify, his mom is not racist and has never exhibited any of those behaviors. However, she has intimated that she might be a little disappointed if he did bring home a woman who was not black. It wasn’t what she said exactly, it was more of what she didn’t say. For the record, his mom is a woman of many words to contextualize this, her silence when jokingly asked about her son dating a white girl hypothetically was louder than her speaking. I remember ease dropping on a conversation between her and his dad and she jokingly said “he could even bring home a white girl” but then she said, “let me not say that too loud”. It was obvious to me then that his mom felt ...
