A buddy of mine is a cop and told me about a story of a man’s dog eating his arm after being dead for only 24 hours. Man’s best friend my ass.

Can I pass along some kind of memo that if I fall unconscious that having my face gnawed off is not one of the ways I would prefer to be roused? Do you know if there is a form I can fill out?

“A fit of depression”

Fuck that shit, why do people keep using that expression? It makes it sound like everything was fine until one day she randomly woke up feeling depressed and went to kill herself, when in truth depression often doesn’t so much come in “fits” as it does in whole months where you slowly spiral into

A pure blooded lab attacked my husky puppy at the park a few years ago, causing permanent blindness and brain damage (and eventually death from complications). They can be sweet, but aggressive dogs exist in every breed, and they’re pretty large and strong.

It’s a lot easier to let go and move on when your situation was taken seriously. I wonder if all the anger at child abusers is partly because so many abusers are never held accountable, so so many abused are not validated.

you do realize that just because one of your neighbors is not on the sex offenders registry, doesn’t mean that there’s not one in your community, right? there could be someone watching your child right now, who hasn’t been caught yet and this list will only give you a false sense of security.

That’s what I always think when people pearl-clutch about other people putting their kid’s pictures online. I mean, you do you, but the “fact” that some random weirdo may be having impure thoughts about a picture on a screen of your 4th grader on the first day of school just seems like an odd thing to even give much

Er, I am not villainizing Union. I had a legitimate grievance in the way she talked about and promoted the film. Union as a human being I have no problem with. I have been civil in all of my discussions on this topic.

Well it seems easy to answer to me. What other film in which it shows a graphic rape yet the rape isn’t the focal point of the movie has furthered the discussion around consent? The only reason we’re having this conversation about consent is because of Nate Parker. It feels really disingenuous to pretend otherwise.

I think Union went about this the best she possibly could have. I have no doubt that there is not a disingenuous bone in her body. Her horrific experience speaks for itself. So many times, again and again, celebrities are inundated with enormous pressure to speak in bland and benign ways, never giving away too much of

I can’t imagine the psychological position of having filmed a rape scene informed by one’s own experiences and then to find out that the writer and director who helped create it were also accused of rape. Moral vertigo.

He’s always been a sort of “point me at the water and lemme swim fast” kind of athlete.

All the people trying for months to claim BLM was a hate group, are so pissed right now.

jada? is that you?

I know it may not be cool, but I love them. There are so many worse things kids can be than smart and a bit pretentious. They’re young and interested in philosophy and the arts and while they may be a bit self-opinionated, that’s what being young is all about! When I was 16 I thought I had the whole world figured out

Yep. I know so many kids who literally are, like, Instagram-famous. They have done nothing but post pictures on Instagram.

Am I the only one who finds these kids cute as hell. They say a lot of stupid stuff but ultimately theyre good kids with good intentions for the world. Also Willow is hella talented.
