The only thing I can say is get your PTSD treated as soon as possible and the loss of a family member can definitely cause PTSD. If you don’t like your therapist, where the sessions are going (like if they’re deviating from the actual trauma) and/or you’re not seeing any progress after several months then find a new…

Steve Bannon also looks like an alcoholic Captain Kangaroo.

Steve Bannon is the deadly space virus.

I’m in a very similar situation to you, and I wish you all the hugs and happiness you can handle.

I think there is some effort made in the header paragraph to indicate that the ‘friend’ the article is about......might make too much out of fairly trivial problems. Real shit is real shit, so I didn’t take it particularly personally, and I don’t think you should either. Celebrate how far you’ve come and I hope 2017…

I was at Penn at the same time as Melker. Donnie was indeed a sad sack of a human being who peed everywhere and assaulted everyone. He belonged to the most rape-y of rape-y fraternities and comfortably communicated with his asshat brothers in the misogynist language of his father and...he just sucked. He really did…

come on let’s have an honesty moment, Rih is too good for drake. We all know this.

So the guy perpetrates the violence and then blames the woman for not preventing it? (Checks all of human history.) YUP! CHECKS OUT!

I wonder if the parents of those girls will face any kind of charges. Did they never see their daughters? Did they never notice the significant changes this situation *had to* have made on the girls’ behavior? Who do these girls live with now? God. I know I could click the link and maybe get some questions answered,…

The irony here is so delicious this post could almost be considered Foodspin.

What an idiot. Donald Trump didn’t want her to commit voter fraud. He wanted her to stand silently outside a polling place in a liberal-leaning area with a gun.

Once the video went viral, the charges against Goodman have really only given the story more legs, since it’s now a story about the oppression of the free press AND an environmental issue, AND an issue of Indigenous rights. Moreover, DemocracyNow! is a platform that couldn’t be more perfectly suited to covering these…

She’s my hero! Let’s be clear; this protest would not be receiving the attention it rightly deserves without her team’s help. This is the fossil fuel industry coming up against the rights of indigenous people, and the state is hardly ever challenged to support the people over the corporations.

No administration, Democratic or Republican, has ever respected a treaty with Native people.

Fair point. However it’s a bit of a distinction without difference as the pipeline is championed by the Right and they are the ones with a lengthy track record of trampling both native rights and free speech in the form of the fourth estate. Still fair point, I suppose in those case it’s more stop being provincial…

This isn’t really “the right.” This is a state’s attorney, who probably is a Republican, but the motive here is more locals versus outsiders who are perceived as agitating a disliked minority. Feelings about the pipeline aren’t all that predictable based on party lines, and white residents’ feelings about Native…

Amy Goodman was a national treasure long before her stellar and necessary reporting on this issue. She and her team do excellent journalism, every day.

I no longer understand the right. Like, they know we can see them, right? Can you stop being so mustache twirling evil for a while? Suppressing voters and media that disagree with you is not how a democracy works. If your policies are so abhorrent thst you can only shore them up with the tactics of fear and silence…

I very recently was in the shower and felt what seemed like, well, poop in between my cheeks. I reached back figuring I’d clean it out and pulled a worm out of my ass. Like a six inch long white worm. I screamed and threw it on the floor and it was wriggling around. My SO came running in looked at it and said “this…

This is a gross thing my doctor and I experienced together.
