I think a big thing is that physical abuse is always coupled with psychological abuse. The abuser makes the victim feel responsible for the abuser's actions. The shame that victims feel is immense.

The unexpected fees sometimes associated with public schools are oftentimes prohibitive for certain families. I remember being ridiculed by my math teacher on a daily basis and eventually booted down to the lower class (which I had already passed) because the TI-whatever calculator was just a completely impossible…
Celebrity news is so weird to me, because I tell myself that I don't care, and then I click. Then I find "woman has long hair" (side note, Bossip: she's not 'showing off her newly long locks'. She is doing something while having hair. If I walk down the road for a venti salted caramel mocha, I'm not 'showing off'…

I just want to be her. She has literally everything I've ever wanted in life: Cats, money, long legs, amazing style, sexual history with Jake Gyllenhaal...
everything in this movie was a fashion do, and anyone who says otherwise can fucking fight me.
My agoraphobic cat is anxious looking at these pictures. I once brought him onto the roof of our apartment building on my boyfriend's birthday due to a drunken whim. I think I still have bits of his claws embedded in my chest from where he attached himself. He also engaged in this insane defensive shedding — I swear…

WHAT IS THIS BAG GIVE IT TO ME
