A Light Kind of Dark

The end of Trumps’ presidency will mark 28 years of rule for Baby Boomers. I’m a Gen X’er and frankly, bring on the Millenials. Maybe they won’t fuck it up as badly as the Boomers have. Seriously. Fuck Boomers. Most of them want nothing more than to keep the status quo, are conservative even when they’re liberal, and

Nah, raging narcissists rarely kill themselves. Depp is simply too sure that the problem is never him or his fault.

Honestly, I read that more as a them expressing frustration that sometimes they aren’t even allowed to do that much for the children. Especially after reading what the ICE employee said to her later in the article, getting real with her. It doesn’t change the reality, but the employees at the detention center aren’t

That is EXACTLY what they are doing. It’s been Kelly long-game.

Yep.

Getting rid of the Flores settlement has been in John Kelly’s sight for a while now. As ex head of DHS he is uniquely familiar with it. The rules around it can be difficult for ICE, but are necessary to the health and well-being of the children. Getting rid of it would be the height of evilness. It’s not just a

serious question: Does this prevent the dreaded milk boil-over some people are so prone to doing? Because one can stare intently at the milk determined not to let it happen this time, and then look away for a millisecond and THAT’S THE MILLISECOND IT BOILS. Asking for a friend.

I think he’s been a copy for a while, because he thought they had fixed the ‘James’ problem, and now he’s thinking they didn’t and he’s fucked. But he has to know for sure before he shoots himself.

Honestly? Rent a car and leave. Or fly to Akureyri, rent a car and leave. Myvatn (mee-vat) was the highlight of the trip, in my opinion.

It’s a photograph of the leader of the free world at the G7 Summit leading her peers and intellectual equals in conversation, while a sleepy lil’ salamander pouts.

Nailed it.

Interestingly, Paul said that. Jesus came ‘make all things new, to put away the old law’. It’s one of the reasons the Council liked Paul so much. They didn’t have to keep to Judaic law, which was messy, complicated, and difficult.

Wow. I couldn’t agree more and it’s weird to see an atheist stating conclusions I’ve come to on my own as I was leaving the Church. I mean I’ve read the theology and history of what came before Pauline Christianity, but it’s refreshing to see someone else acknowledge the profound impact Paul’s specific brand had on

Co-dependency is definitely taught, imo. Your brain’s been trained. My real therapy started when I was 36 after a brutal rape, beating and strangulation by my then-boyfriend. I hope that others like me get help way before I did and never have to go through that. You don’t need to do therapy as a child to get better. I

I’m going to make some possibly erroneous assumptions based on admitted projection and experience. Feel free to dismiss them if they don’t speak to you. You admit to being co-dependent, which I relate to so much. I’d really recommend raisedbynarcissists on Reddit, even if your parent(s) aren’t narcissists. Many

I always look for your commentary on these posts, so thank you. Frankly, this feels like a stunt and something about it feels distasteful. However, I have it on good authority that during the Obama (and probably the Bush) years the circumstances that usually led to these children being separated from their parents

Raniere comes off sounding like Dexter. He knows there’s something fucked up about his lack of humanity. He desperately wants to be a ‘real boy’, so he makes an effort. He tells himself his motivations are pure and his self-serving actions are justified means to a perfect end. But at the end of the day, he’s

I don’t believe your interpretation of what farmerenginner said is at all what they meant. I understand why you’d be sensitive to the term ‘broken’, but co-dependancy is a real thing and it’s very dangerous. It nearly killed me when a man I believe to have BPD beat me, raped me, and held me hostage. I agree that a

There’s a clinical word for this type of person: co-dependent. I think your language is clumsy, but I’m going to assume you’re referring to this. A co-dependent has their own damage and probably their own set of mental health issues. None of us can say for certain that Grande is co-dependent or that she seeks out

I’ll research it. My father is more worried about this than I am, but I’ll make him happy.
