It seems like an odd diagnostic criteria. I have anxiety because my brain is shit with a neurotransmitter or two, my brain would still be doing that even if I didn’t find it distressing. Similarly, someone could be besties with their hallucinations and entirely unbothered by them, does that mean that she’s not…

The “causes distress” part was weird to me when I took Abnornal Psych. Saying that Trump exhibits perfectly all the diagnostic criteria of narcissism, but he’s cool with it, so he’s not a narcissist even though he looks, behaves, thinks, and talks like one is weird to me. Seems like a pretty academic distinction, like…

The full Jolie.

Oh, were you instead raised to believe that opting out is how problems are solved? No, I was not raised to be so cynical, although I don’t know what our respective upbringing has to do with anything. Why do you bring that up? Complaints from the type of people who can afford private school tuition are actually very…

So you’re the opposite of a Republican that suddenly cares about LGBT rights when their favorite nephew comes out as gay.

It is so weird to me that people don’t see government jobs as jobs.

I replied to a few comments on a post that was about a week old a few days ago, I clicked on it because it was at the top. I felt a bit foolish, it’s true.

Then get involved. Go to school board and city council meetings. Vote for these things even if it’ll raise your damn taxes. Give a shit and do this work even before your precious fledglings are subjected to the horrors of public school. Use your privilege instead of throwing your hands in the air and leaving the…

People, even progressive people, turn all snarly when you suggest that their child doesn’t deserve a special leg up because of opportunity.

I love this! I am completely against private schools, they totally foster and promote inequality.

But if we feed them and they succeed they’ll end up competing with Real American Middle Class children, and we can’t have that, can we?

Paul Ryan, we don’t like you here. Go away.

It does make you wonder why she doesn’t keep the PR firm on retainer instead of contracting them only after she’s gotten herself into it. Maybe that’ll be her true lesson learnt. 😂

That’s kind of what I mean. She seems like a person lost, with no true sense of self, because she’s so image focused. She’d have to find a genuine self first in order to share it and the first step is awareness.

Two things, first, I’m glad she listened to my advice about her hair (http://theslot.jezebel.com/1798346471). Much better!

Predators are excellent at choosing their victims by that exact metric, believability.

The easiest way to do that would have been to not test anything. I’ve seen this floated, but it doesn’t track.

Portugal can always use more tourism cash money. It’s pretty much their main thing, so if more people go there on vacation (and SHOUT OUT everyone should, because it is a beautiful and fun country with great beaches and good people) that will be one good thing Madonna does.

I’ve just made up a theory that this is about testosterone levels, your anecdote supports that.

Have you ever had your hormones tested for anything? This sounds more like a testosterone level thing than anything, really. Your friends probably have higher testosterone levels than you do, testosterone is the randy hormone and largely what drives the feelings of lust you don’t understand. Which is something that I…
