A Light Kind of Dark

Oh, I’m sorry that happened. I asked a question and you answered it, so that’s really unfair. I absolutely see the point about this not being like her other very edited photos. I guess my larger point was that, in all honesty, the Khloe in that photo IS fit and thin from any objective standpoint, even if the photo is

He’s in the process of inventing a new type of transportation - a full self-driving car. The humans drive it now, but it’s a Trojan horse. How do you get people comfortable with a car that drives itself? Put it in a closed loop with no chance of hitting oncoming traffic and send a million people in it each year. Grandm

This is a good response to my question. I’m going to take issue with a few parts. Especially that the point about her thighs touching to her knees is absurd. She’s putting one leg in front of the other. It’s a very common pose for pictures, and tells us nothing about how big her actual thighs are. Her mistake was in

I’m waiting for someone to point out where in the original photo she looks like she isn’t fit? Her stomach is flat, her ribs are slightly showing, and she has a clearly defined waist. What the fuck is even wrong with that photo? I find it bizarre. It looks just like what she’s showing on instagram, except from a front

Yeah. And I forgot to add that aside from the drag itself slowing down the plane, you’re supposed to fly slowly so people can read the banner. The whole thing is a cluster of Do-Not-Do’s when you’re flying. 

No, this sounds like a stall, not poor maintenance. See my other comment for why that’s the likely story. I guess poor maintenance could have caused the stall, but it’s more likely human error mixed with unfavorable winds.

So, I’m not a pilot, though I did grow up around them. But my understanding is that it’s the drag. First, it naturally slows down the airplane, and speed equals lift, so it’s hard to keep the speed up in those small planes with the drag. This means any strong, sudden breeze coming from the side or front could stall

Banner towing is one of the most dangerous professions for pilots. My dad has done it a few times, and after a few scares decided it wasn’t worth risk. For reference, his actual profession is jumping out of airplanes. He is not risk averse, by nature.

Yep. As I said his fat-phobia wasn’t my only issue. My mom was... not nice. He really was the better parent. But that made his fat phobic comments all the more serious to me. His hatred of fat people was terrifying to me, because he was the only parent who liked me.

My father is openly fat-phobic. All three of his daughters either have or had disordered eating or a full blown eating disorder. His fat-phobia wasn’t the only reason, but it did make clear the one thing I should learn to ‘control’ in order to have any worth.

I just threw mine out (and the baking powder) based on this comment. I don’t even want to tell you how long I’ve had the same two boxes in the cupboard. 

That’s actually really sad. To think of a child being scared of becoming something he can’t control with no way of stopping that... that’s awful.

If conversations with my father are any indication, it was that wind turbines were to blame. 

So I’ve actually been on both sides of this coin. I waited till I was 40. The whole idea weirded me out, but at the end of the day I wanted one with my husband (didn’t want one with the first husband). I told everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, I’m going to be one and done. I hated my pregnancy. I swore I would never,

It’s also possible that she had multiple C-sections and you literally can’t have unlimited amounts of them. It eventually renders you infertile, because of the scar tissue on the uterus. No more than three is recommended.

I think it’s ‘cute’ that the Daily Mail (a UK mag where everyone working there is on the NHS) thinks his medical bills will total $97,500. I’d guess it’ll be closer to $500,000.

Also, aren’t they enforcing Flores once again? So it really is temporary. Trumps admin literally decided to break the law and ignore the rules set out because of the Flores Agreement.

The lead up to ‘those moments’ are actually more damaging long term, even if ‘those moments’ (physical abuse) doesn’t even happen.

I agree that we don’t have all the facts, but there’s one thing that makes me inclined to believe that Jamie doesn’t the high road here. The man has a restraining order against his own grandson. Two people trying to co-parent after divorce can get complicated, I understand. But it’s also pretty common and most of

Prolonged suffering? Yeah, that’s worse.
