There is a huge difference between being born into poverty and putting on the trappings of poverty as an adult by choice. And I never said she didn't live in a trailer park, I said it's idiotic that she would chose to do that after going to prep school and then private college just to play some part. Good for her for…

Lana has not lived in any subculture and certainly not one associated with disenfranchised POC. She was born to a rich family and went to prep school in Connecticut. I've heard rumors she lived in a trailer park after college or something which is idiotic and contrived, besides the fact that it's associated mostly…

I totally agree, she appropriates class more that race. Right down to praying to Marilyn Monroe, John Wayne, and Elvis at the beginning. Her trailer park acrylic nails bullshit poverty bit is so old, I can't stand it.

I think she went to prep school in CT.

Oh Lana. Not only is it offensive, it was also done EIGHT YEARS AGO. Stahp

CYA like a pro Lindy. Nice.

So what you're saying is...... she's older than her chronological age. -__-

Wait hold on — 17 and 24? Kind of an alarming age gap there.

That is the wooooooorst. If I NEVER see another mason jar again in my life it will be FAR TOO SOON. They do not belong at weddings! People want to pretend they have some kind of rural Americana fairy tale rustic blah blah when really they're just from the suburbs. This whole "revival" of canning, sewing, and growing…

Yeah, isn't the south so BACKWARDS and ~~cRaZy~~??? Thank God we have The Great White North and Liberal San Fran to help us see the error of our ways. It's just so much better to get married young for a green card, everyone knows that.

I wouldn't take my adderall for a long time because of wanting to be drug-free. I didn't want to have to be dependent on it in order to get work done. My doctor finally explained that I don't have to take it every day, I could take it twice a year and be fine. (I am used to the kinds of meds that you have to take…

Seriously! Not only did it take me 3 months to believe my diagnosis (ADHD inattentive and a couple other things), it took 3 MORE months to get me to actually take my medication because I hate meds (my own issue, I know) and because I could not stop feeling like it was "cheating" because I had only ever known people…

I definitely say there is and I never even realized it before. My family is classy ~as fuck~ and we have multicolored lights on the tree (Catholics). In fact as I was reading these articles I was all "team white lights" and then I thought of the tree that goes up in my parents' house every year and realized DAMN, I'm…

Way to forget the BEST MOVIE MUSICAL EVER. Of ALL TIME!

I'm a cute white girl and I'm a social worker so I speak sort-of carefully, which makes people have all kind of crazy assumptions about me. Sometimes I feel like everything about me is surprising to some people ("That girl likes rap music? But she looks so sweet!" "I bet I can hit on her and she won't say anything,…

I 100% feel exactly the same, I think you said it so well. I can't even listen to that song because of that line.

That makes no sense. If that were true then we would not have "til death do us part" in marriage vows, it would be a contract to last 7 or so years. Men were the ones who have been in charge for thousands of years, they are the ones who made the rules regarding marriage and commitment. If it was so unnatural or…

*shifty eyes right*

I second the advice of Marillenbaum..... dad should probably step up. It would be easy for him to get custody (at least share custody) considering she has a DFCS case open. You can always make DFCS reports anonymously but I know what you mean about the mom probably knowing it was you. I think talking to any mandated…

I could literally imagine some of these jokes on Family Guy and they'd fit in perfectly. Just throwaway one-liners where the punchline is race/sex/ur fat/blah blah. Stupid.
