This. I got picked on enough.  I can’t imagine how awful it would have been if we had social media back then.  I cringe at the thought.

I am so infinitely glad that  when I was a teenager (a) social media didn’t exist and (b) I wasn’t famous enough for anyone to give a shit what I did.

From 2002 people, 2002.

None. After he walked out on me and the kids I made a big point of continuing to go absolutely everywhere that I liked because fuck him, I own all these places and HE can go find somewhere new if it bothers him. 

Most of the men around me responded to each Me Too outing with utmost concern about how the changing environment would affect them personally. So, excuse me if I have zero hope for us, ladies. I await a benevolent lady billionaire to buy us an island so we can finally be free from dick monsters. 

College graduates in the 60s and 70s could work a minimum wage job during the school year and summer and easily pay tuition. 1994-ish was the last year that was possible.

Robert De Niro just turned 76. I hope I’m as sure-footed as he is when I’m his age. Just looking at those things gave me an imaginary sprained ankle.

I believe it’s called acid and you buy it in little squares of paper.

There is this bizarre push on the conservative Twitter to “out” him as a Warren and Sanders supporter and being anti-police, which to me obviously misses the point.

I didn’t really stop to think about what they really meant - I guess the idea of slaves…

“in danger of slipping off her hand and tumbling into an open sewer, the toilet”

It seems to me that if he’s so committed to sufferers of MENIERE’S SYNDROME he’d know how to spell it! (And that Jezebel wouldn't repeat the misspelling)

Jesus fucking Christ. I can't even imagine what happened to this poor woman, to end up deceased in a car trunk. Fucking animals.

This is disturbing.

This is a good write up on her meaningful contribution. One of, what I hope to be dozens, that should spring forth in her honor. I would like to believe that even though she is gone too soon, that she left behind many young stars that will shine in her wake.

Embarrassment, lack of insurance, unable to get a referral to a dermatologist, being told that there’s nothing to be done by a GP.

We see this a lot too from the media/politicians as well through the lens of “non-consensual sex.” There isn’t sex and non-consensual sex, there is sex and there is rape.

It was such a short, fast trip for him from “adorable dork” to “insufferable jerk”.
