I’d like to formally announce the Critical Thinking Challenge

Just tell him not to eat a Tide pod and he probably will.

What the fuck people.

I remember standing in front of the bathroom mirror with my dad when I was a little kid (not every morning, since he was usually off to work well before my bus came, but fairly often), and we would blow ourselves kisses and tell ourselves how amazing and fantastic we were. ^_^

Communication, yes. Telling women what is and isn’t coercive or is or isn’t assault is not your lane, as a man. As a white woman, I don’t get to tell a POC what I feel qualifies as racist.

I am a woman.

The handwringing and faux outrage over Pompeo’s words in this thread is enough to make me want to check into Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital For The Terminally Damned and wait beside the ghost of Denny Duquette* (*his time he’s armed with Negan’s bat to beat that storyline to death)
for a meteor full of hospital lone…

read some of the other comments. faye was on grey’s for a season and i imagine ellen would only bring her up out of familiarity with her.

I think you really misread all of that if you think she was insulting Faye Dunaway.

I feel like you’re missing the point. The comment came from respect. She named someone she feels should have all the power and money she can handle. She isn’t calling out Dunaway she’s calling out a patriarchal power structure that has left one of the greatest actors of her generation without any real financial or…

Probably because she said “no,” “let’s chill,” “next time,” and “I don’t want to feel forced” along with probably dozens of non-verbal cues that she wasn’t into it.

There was some overlap in commenters yesterday who posted their tributes to O’Riordan, and then went on to participate in a thread about how your M&M preference is indicative of your mental health. This was pretty frustrating to read, since I have firsthand knowledge of the fact that when a healthy young person dies…

When I was in 5th grade a fellow student slipped on the freshly waxed floor, so I burned down the entire school. Standard procedure.

Oh sure. It’s got to be the rich white man.

Truly, this book is the feel-petty book of the year.

You are very brave to decide that there are other ways your life could be and to take steps to get there. The best advice I can give you (I’m 30, disabled, with mental health problems, and certainly know what it is to feel that your life has stalled) is to be kind to yourself. You will have days where you make real…

So...this is gonna basically be me word vomiting so I won’t take it personal if it goes ignored or criticized

Today is the 10 year anniversary of my intended death. I acknowledged my family’s pain but had nothing left to give so I swallowed a bottle of sleeping pills and had flashes of being tucked into a gurney (it felt so tight and safe) pulling tubes out of my arm and nurses yelling, and then waking up in a mental…
