I must say, the whole “all cartoons are only for kids” mentality annoys me.

WHAT THE FUCK.
If you know what was wrong the first time around and if there is solid, concrete evidence that it has changed. If you don’t know what was wrong, don’t even waste your time (actually, you could, you would just know even more strongly that you’re not right together).
I’m with collierLA. Unless you think they are planning to sell her to the highest bidder, why not let her go? At 15 she’s on the verge of internships, jobs, driving and proving she can navigate the world. How is this different? She’ll be with adults and they’ll have a place for her to sleep at night that’ll probably…
Jezzies! I had my very last math class this week. I AM FREE FROM MATH FOREVER!!! Also, I suddenly realized on Thursday that I was completely over my ex. It’s been a liberating week! Also I’m super stressed about finals but what else is new
At the age of 29, I have...I think my first date? maybe?
Just a little venting tonight:
Fifteen is PLENTY old to go on a long foreign trip with parental chaperons, even if they ARE doofuses. (And what’s wrong with no itinerary? I’ve never traveled anywhere with one.) Just be straight with her : “look, I think you’re smart and wonderful, but your dad and stepmom are occasionally idiots, so I’m nervous…
I want to take a few minutes to thank you all for allowing me to vent and to just decompress these last few months. I look forward to this night every week because I don’t share a lot of this information with a lot of people. Having trouble with a child is bad enough but when you are doing it completely in secret it…
I thought maybe I’d be sad about Mother’s Day because this is my first one as a single mom, but I decided to take it as a Treat Yo Self weekend. It has been AWESOME. New pinata cake pan? TREAT YO SELF. New nail polish even though you have a billion? TREAT YO SELF. Entire afternoon off from parenting to prepare for a…
YOU ARE NOT! YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL AND WONDERFUL AND LOVED.
Thank you so much for this! I was taken away from my mother when I was a child due to serious neglect. The apartment we were living in was condemned. She left, didn’t even try to get me back or see me. No phone calls, nothing. Just left while I wondered why. I got that we weren’t living right, didn’t understand the…
My mom tried to run me over with her car at Christmas and I have only spoken to her once since then. And somehow I feel like the piece of shit in this whole situation.
I don’t get it. Are they supposed to look bigger? I can’t see much of a difference in size. Is there some other, new way in which my mouth is inadequate? I feel so behind the times.
What is it with sushi and stupid people? I was out to dinner this weekend at a very nice sushi place (the kind where they serve sushi and that’s it, no hibachi or noodle dishes or anything) and the two women at the table in front of us were absolute nitwits. They sat down, looked over the menu, and then started doing…
Do you guys ever bump into another lady on the street and wonder to yourself if they’re a fellow Jezebel commenter because I do all the time. And then I think wouldn’t it be crazy if like adultsaur’s doctor IRL is yoga nerd md and neither of them knows it.
We used a Willow Tree figurine that now sits on display in our home. We had a very tight budget so couldn’t afford a 60+ dollar handmade topper. I’m white, and the Mr. is black...and let me tell you, it’s appalling, the lack of interracial wedding cake toppers. I figured wood-colored skin was better than two white…
I’m Chinese & my husband is Korean. To simplify things on our wedding weekend, we didn’t do any traditional Chinese or Korean wedding rites. But we gave a nod to both our individual heritages via our caketoppers: me in a traditional Chinese wedding garment, and he in a traditional Korean wedding garment:
I don’t want to make this about me but .. two days ago, I told someone off for using the word tran*y and was instead subjected to more transphobic commentary, and this was someone who I was close to, and I was coming out to them. I identify as genderqueer and this interview & along with what I had to go through two…
