I’ve been there too. There is some relief in hearing other people describe having gone back after the fact...

The last residential school closed in 1996. It is fresher hell than most realize!

That’s an interesting bit of info I didn’t know before! Maybe I’ll hear it differently now. It’s always grated on me for a lot of reasons but clearly not enough to stop listening. ;)

It’s one of those podcasts that depends significantly on who the guests are and can be WILDLY hit or miss. I am a fan, but I rarely recommend it to friends unless I’m suggesting a particular episode.

I’d like some kind of meme as evidence, you put a photo behind that text and I’all believe you 100%!

Bummer! Thank you for replying anyway. :)

VERY IMPORTANT PARALLEL PIECE:

Somehow I don't put a lot of stock into what David Spade thinks about dignity.

Oh shiiiiit she is amazing. I’m in Alberta and have been looking at a place in Calgary that seems solid (pink permanent ink clinic) but this gal’s work is fantastic. Maybe a post-masters treat?

They take pride in their diversity (of discrimination)!

I am less worried about offending but reply politely because I don’t want things to ESCALATE, which they often do. The times in my life that I’ve been assertive with inappropriate men have universally led to situations in which I feel even less safe than I did before... “Is he following me home?”

I’m with you on Kimmel, but can’t bring myself to be Team Leno...is “neither” an option?

Nah, I'm acute one

Remembered the best worst text I have ever received...

One gentleman I was seeing briefly repeatedly told me I was his, “guardian sex angle.”

oh god, I know. I don't usually correct people when they use "begins" in place of "vulva" or even the catch-all "pussy," but a girlfriend described having her "vagina waxed" and I nearly doubled over in discomfort.
