Wouldn’t it be nice to see a woman really claiming her pursuit of pleasure?

It’s also telling that sex workers are cast aside in this narrative. Allen was, as she wrote in her Instagram post, in a “dark time” but now she’s moved on. She doesn’t “do it anymore.” She’s “not proud.” What about those sex workers who helped her in that “dark time” and served as “an outlet”? After all, the fact of…

I don’t know if calling her time with sex workers a “dark time” that she doesn’t do anymore - I don’t know if that description disparages sex work necessarily. Saying you were having a dark time and seeing a therapist doesn’t disparage therapy work. Sexual healing is still healing. If people want to see a sex worker…

I don’t know....those text messages sent to Rain Dove where she admitted she had sex with him. The fact that she tried to justify it because she was in a relationship at 17 with a 33 year old. The fact that she’s now pinning the payout on the dead guy who can’t really defend himself. The fact that she’s using the same…

Brad Pitt’s so good at the game that he cheats on Aniston but Angelina’s the bad guy, and the FBI is called about an incident with the oldest son and Angelina’s the bad guy, and now she’s divorcing him because of whatever went so wrong between them so she’s the bad guy, and he’s admitted to having substance abuse…

I feel so, so sorry for the woman whose act of kindness (giving up her seat) ended up being used as a jump-off point for Blair. Blair has done nothing but try to turn this into internet fame, asking for free plane tickets and a job at Buzzfeed. Listen, it is this simple: don’t fucking photograph someone without their…

I feel like there are two types of people in this discussion. There are those that understand how tiring and degrading it is to constantly have people insisting that you perform your job, which you are an expert in, in their way, and engage with their ideas, and listen to *them*, and that they know better than you...…

We need to entertain the possibility that Gilliam’s problems are due more to him being a terrible businessman whose decisions are often poorly thought through and whose projects are inevitably fraught with conflict than to him being a misunderstood genius.

I found that one detail pretty funny, and telling as well, shouldn’t they have been the first ones to speak up and admonish that jerk?
And not all college students are the same: So are these the kind that worked their ass off as they went to class, paying for their own tuition?
Or are they the type of waspy privileged…

I was thinking the same thing, plus her “friends” may not be as supportive as they should be. They clearly see this asshole ruining her opportunities with a new guy, but they don’t do anything to call him out on his gross actions simply so there isn’t an opening at the dinner table.
Like...seriously...as the…

This actually hit me in the middle of the grocery store after i read this article yesterday:
“Hold up...she says that she’s been in an abusive relationship before and it was her ‘friends’ that helped her get through it. But one of her ‘friends’ is clearly showing signs of being a psychological abuser (she’s granted…

Not the author’s job to save her though. In the past I fell for that too, and more than once. It NEVER works. She needs a therapist, not George the Incel guarding the gates.

sure, but it was an insult nonetheless. why did the entire friend group let George spend all night insulting a guy who nobody even met until that night.

I think a final warning is warranted before going to that length, but I agree with the concepts here.

I wouldn’t be surprised if undiagnosed dyslexia or ADHD led to difficulty in school and a subsequent belief that he’s “dumb”. He is intelligent and good person; it’s a shame he suffers from the idea that he is somehow lacking.

Yup, if you’re good friends with a bully it’s because you are a bully.

“A” may very well be a shitty person herself. She is good friends with a person who bullies others; and her social group doesn’t mind language like “retard”. And when her boyfriend gets upset by the bullying, she just tells him to go home and she’ll just stay and hang with her asshole friends. Maybe it’s true that…

SAME. The whole letter I’m thinking that she’s part of the problem. If this guy has SUCCEEDED in driving off multiple suitors in the past then either she’s okay with that behavior or...? What’s the other option? There isn’t one! She’s part of the problem. I have large friend-groups too and if there was someone in my…

Dumb and Angry doesn’t actually sound dumb at all.
