You know, its actually not funny to those of us with personality disorders. We’re not punchlines or jokes. We’re human beings just like you with feelings and its really disheartening to only see negative and disparaging remarks about your disorder being bandied around like you are so cheeky or edgy for using them as…

Mark, man, buddy am I so sorry to hear that you are leaving. You are easily one of my favorite writers here. You’re charming in a boyish way, goofy, gross but you can get it together to be serious as fuck. I really admire that. Plus I totally adore your Allen stories.

I’m not sure that’s true. I blocked my son’s dad’s new girlfriend because she was harassing me in private messages. That was almost 2 years ago. Those messages are still there.

This so much! I know several seemingly reasonable people who are Trump supporters and when I point out instances like this to them they brush it off or make excuses. ‘He doesn’t really mean that. Its hyperbole.’ Or they’ll acknowledge that its scary and/or ridiculous but point to how he’d benefit the country. ‘Yeah,…

I thought I was the only person who had a serious crush on fox Robin as a child until a few years ago when I mentioned it on facebook. Tons of women admitted that they adored him. I still can’t articulate why I love him so much but I do. Biggest Disney crush.

I have a personality disorder, well several actually, and Charlie really seems to have a personality disorder from my perspective. Narcissim maybe but I think Charlie’s speech patterns seem more indicative of a different one (though it could be co-morbid) but I can’t seem to remember which one.

My aunt and her husband do actually have separate houses about a block and a half apart (her adult son and his family live between them!) They’ve been married for almost 20 years now but lived apart at least half that time. He is her third husband and she is his second wife. They love each other dearly, eat supper…

Here’s the thing. This is Jezebel. Virtually all its readership is going to be in agreement that what happened to this woman and her friend is beyond repulsive. Obviously the people in the hotel and the police are disgusting shitbags. Like, we don’t need to say that because literally we all agree.

Wait, so they’re just closed for Thanksgiving? Yeah, um, no praise from me. Closed for Thanksgiving should be the standard not a give us a cookie we’re so great to our employees. When I started in retail 15ish years ago, nobody but grocery stores were open in my area and even they closed around noon. I noticed the…

Simpson’s did it.

Slay, you seem really hellbent on people agreeing with you that the state of Iowa is a horrible red state. What’s your bone in this fight, man? You seem to take this Iowa-bad thing personally.

So like, you’re mostly right with the judges and Ernst buuuuut, they didn’t repeal all the judges. Wiggens is still on the court and he was there during the infamous 2008 ruling.

Thank you! I hate when Iowa is lumped in with the worst of the Midwestern states. We are not all backward, ignorant, hate-filled fuck-sticks. Most of those Iowans live on the western half of the state. We’re not the most progressive (though we’ve done progressive things in the past) state but we are a pretty…

I knew I lived in an economically depressed area but to see parents claim how high childcare/pre-school is in their area really astounds me! 18k is just a couple thousand less a year than I and many families in my area make a year! And then I saw a comment by someone who said higher quality places tend to charge…

Quite honestly is it something you’d like either? My son’s father impregnated a woman while we were separated. The feelings are complex. A person knows you can’t blame the child, but you can’t fairly claim its something you desired or were anticipating.

I don’t think she meant it that way. Sounds like an affectionate turn of phrase. Though I may be biased because my mom’s pet name for my sister is her bonus baby. She believed the myth that you can’t get pregnant while nursing and well, my brother and sister are super close in age! Wait, what was I talking about? Oh,…

This topic always gets to me. I live in the Midwest, in a somewhat depressed area. We have jobs, but the majority are low-paying service. My son was born a year prior to my friend’s twins so we looked a lot at childcare and daycare together. My friend was always looking for the best bang for buck. I can’t fault her…

I worked retail, so ymmv, but the first place gave 3 weeks paid off after a year of employment as long as you were in the system as a full time employee. The second place had a 2 year policy prior to receiving 2 weeks paid maternity, also only for full time employees but they based your status not off what you were…

Here’s the thing, even if they learned a gazillion other things, useful and/or good, they still learned they could treat other people, specifically female-identified people, that their worth is correlated to how attractive they are and even then any worth they had from being attractive can easily be disposed of once…
