Groomed for abuse sounds right.

just coming round to remind everyone that george bush and his dad are still pieces of shit k thanks bye

Related to the Astros’ win: have you ever wondered what happens to the championship hats and shirts pre-printed with the logo of the team that ends up losing? We don’t see them, but they actually have a much more interesting and arguably more worthwhile life than the real winners’ merch:

Narcissistic Abuse Survivor Thread

I actually worked with Paz on a film last year, she has clear substance abuse problems that interfer with work, but she is a talented performer. In the three weeks I worked with her, she was under the influence at all times. She is not a difficult person just a very troubled person who needs help. Those troubles…

Arrest them all!!!!

A few years ago (after this had happened) there were a ton of stories about her basically getting drunk and high and acting crazy in public, and I feel so awful for even reading the stories. This poor girl was self-medicating because she was raped, not out having too much fun.

“Perhaps not. But that résumé also couldn’t be achieved without any privilege to begin with.”

I think it’s unfair and futile to ask individuals to tamp their ambitions to “make room for someone else”. This is precisely the reason we need systematic change — you can’t simply ask a smart, motivated, passionate, educated person to ‘just not’. They have every right to do what they want to do and this is a…

Being what I guess is the closest person to my age here (I am 50, but people honestly don’t buy it when I tell them), so I turn to you for advice on where to start. I have hormonal skin - always have. OCM has finally banished my teenage skin, but I think it is time to start upping the game. I have heard only good…

Her body is perfect! Jealous Jan is Jealous. Oh ummm...Jan Shedd, if you’re reading this, as a physician I’m qualified to tell you the following: get your ass off the internet and get an ANA test because that low level butterfly rash on your face that the cruel hands of time had a field day with, is looking a little…

I hate it when ugly old white women think they’re the ones that run everything. Show some respect! There’s no way Demetria is a “16-18"! The hater is blind.

I’ve always wanted to do a video series like this, where I find a particularly racist shitheaded comment and then deep dive into that person’s entire online life. You’d be surprised what sorts of rabbit holes you find yourself in. One guy who was convinced Pizzagate was real is also super into birdwatching, and while…

With everything hideous happening in the world right now I’ve NEVER BEEN HAPPIER to read a skincare article. I read it with a ferocity reserved for the great Russian novelists. I read parts of it out loud. I opened every link in a new window. Thanks for throwing us some fluff. If I cry over my laptop anymore this week…

It’s sorta bittersweet how Gawker is being vindicated left and right after its demise.

Yes, people DO put thier hands on other people completely unwarranted and unprovoked. It happens all the time. You realize you are being a complete idiot right now? Perhaps you should listen, listen to women’s stories of men grabbing them and groping them, instead of claiming something never happens just because it…

Next time you feel like expressing an opinion without reading the whole article, maybe, y’know, just...don’t.

Victim blaming and poor reading comprehension. He did tell people at the time, and he was also very low on the totem pole and was undoubtedly afraid he’d be fired. With Spacey’s rep, there is no reason to think anything would have been done.

I have friends who knew him in high school (as Kevin Fowler) and are not surprised about any of this.

Maybe Denton could buy up Gothamist people and make a hybrid Gawthamist.
