I don’t think this is going to end well for that little girl.

I wish I could give you more stars. So happy for you!!!

I am so glad you are out of that situation! Cheers to being financially independent and making our own decisions in the best interests of ourselves and our families!!!

Not to mention that maybe you were told for 25 years that you were a fuck up and not smart enough to handle your own finances, so he would just take your money and decide how to spend it, mostly on himself, thank you very much. So you were terrified of leaving him because you knew you were just going to ruin your life

That is terrible! Hope you are feeling better!

I saw the trailer for Red Sparrow in the theater, and had zero interest in seeing it then. Now I have less than zero interest in seeing it.

I wish I could give you more stars for this

It put me off as well, but my neighbors invited me over to watch it, so I did. It’s a pretty good movie. When the whole affair happened (I am an old), I had zero compassion for Tonya. After watching the movie, and seeing what POS’s her mother and husband were, I have much sympathy. While her response to the abuse was

Hey New Day, you did exactly the right thing. I left my (emotionally) abusive husband when he started getting scary and potentially violent, but only with the help of some amazingly supportive friends who let me know that his behavior was not OK, that I was not crazy, and gave me a place to stay while I got on my feet

Well you just made my night. I think I need me one of these “vagina eggs” because I don’t get enough bacterial infections. Also, it would be a great conversation starter to have an unexplained crystal eggs falling from between my knees.

Solitude during the apocalypse surrounded by my pets sounds a lot like my life post-divorce. Without the apocalypse part. And I still have me that sweet, sweet indoor plumbing and automatic bill pay.

I think I need a vagina egg. What is it?

Yes. I think indoor plumbing could take it all.

I know! I was scared myself during that part. I kept thinking that if he had gotten shot I would have heard about it, but still I was scared.
I can’t even imagine how he must have felt.

I know, but I made that salad last weekend and it was amazing. I never would have guessed those flavors would go together, but they did. I ate it all myself and I am not sorry.

Thank you! Me too! I voted for MY OWN wellness. Cause I feel pretty shitty and would like not to, and would gladly exchange someone else’s billions of dollars for that.

I always liked the Baroness, so much more than Maria. She is cool and elegant and who the hell wants to marry a man with that many kids? She dodged that one.

I found Cat in the Hat really upsetting as a child, I thought it was a tale of horror.

You win the internet today.

Considering that Ayla invented the travois, the bridle, and farming, she probably also invented the straight razor, which she then went on to refine to a disposable twin blade. Things were primitive back then.
