This is possibly the most depressing point about this really emotional topic.

It takes not only a nurturing person, but an incredibly strong person to help people through that much suffering. You end up taking some of that pain on yourself, so you need to let it out occasionally.

What are they made of, I wonder? Because no matter where you live in the world, winter is the season of being way too fucking dry and dealing with all the discomfort and ugliness that comes with that.

It reminded me of a joke on Parks and Recreation where Tom calls an interviewee “a million year old racist”. Ron: “He said he LIKES ethnic girls, Tom.”

Don’t forget a Kermit puppet!

Protrayal in media is PART of the culture, not a distinct thing.

Everyone should read The Bluest Eye, even if they have excellent teachers.

“Three well-timed ejaculations”

The offense in both cases is rooted in detracting from the environment. You seem to think that laughing does sufficient harm to other passengers that it’s ok to eject the laughers and threaten them with arrest. Does it not seem like the makers of those signs were creating a hostile environment for female students,…

I read your entire 1st comment, and you are kind of right. The people who are talking the most about this do seem to be moralizing/projecting, but moopidoo’s post brings up something I think is important. Setting aside all romantic notions for the moment, a marriage is a contract with another person. If one party is…

So gross. I read the first response noticing that he mentioned openly discussing this with...his therapist. Who he tries pretty hard to make it SOUND like supports his actions. He doesn’t mention how his wife actually feels about any of it until he says he’s not worried about the leak because he used a spam email his…

Their precious frat has been suspended until they can find a scapegoat to eject, at which point they’ll be reinstated and probably congratulated for “doing the right thing”. Stop freaking out about a slippery slope and consider that very little has actually been done.

I just shout-laughed. You were so devoted to fighting for the cause that a wine train is too fancy and serene a place for a dozen black women’s laughter, and that it was right to put them off the train for laughing, but today you think wanting to see a toxic group who advertised that they are gross assholes booted out…

“Inappropriate laughing”
*Tries to imagine the diagram of Laughter Propriety a young LaurEli920 studied at charm school.

I had to pause at “I wish the bears were in someone else’s yard.” so I could collect myself.

Eh, I don’t begrudge her the loss of something she most likely used to lie down, close her eyes, and float weightlessly while dreaming about if she’d married the guy before this one.

Right? So he basically says that those bears are going to ruin EVERYTHING YOU LOVE, CHILDREN. And then splits the scene! Hahahahahaha. I love how at the end, when Mom tells them to get him to call animal control, they ratchet up the screechy cries.
I know that it was annoying to a lot of people, but personally I…

translated: “I’m under no obligation to seek out information that doesn’t fall within my personal confirmation bias because of how teachers organized things for educational purposes when I was in school.” Adios, you lazy turd!

SO GO AND FIND SOME.

Beach pictures though? That really got thrown on there.
