But whyyyyy??

I have PCOS and IBS. I often fantasize about having my entire abdomen replaced with robot parts.

PCOS here! Can I ask what you’ve been doing?

Have you talked about it with her? I had a friend who dated someone who had all sorts of *stuff* around saying “I love you” but showed his care in different ways (though, to be honest, it was an ongoing source of tension). For me, I would be feeling concerned and like we weren’t in the same place, but that’s me.

I pushed myself to go on a first date, despite having a cold and feeling anxious about it. And it was good!

And one in Canada! ;)

Emma turns evil? What the fuck? What is this, Scandal?!

Oh that’s too bad. It films near my work, so I’ve been a little curious about it, and now I feel like I’ve been sucked in!

Yes! I’m sad I burned through them in a couple of days.

My day is kind of going like that! I’m not even sure I’m super into it, but I can’t seem to stop watching!

I am sick AF and wanted something kind of mindless to watch so I started watching Once Upon a Time and I think I like it so far! I also watched One Day at a Time and The Grinder recently and recommend them both.

I’ve met my fair share of TERFs and SWERFs and I damn well guarantee you my trans friends and acquaintances and sex workers have met a lot more.

Totally. Given the backlash that stories are getting, I think it is so important to write with utter clarity to the extent possible—yes, we can’t do anything about the way that trauma impacts memory other than explain it thoroughly, for example, but that isn’t the problem here. The problem is a leap from Weinstein to…

It’s not the belief I’m taking issue with (though it is certainly outside my belief system), it’s that it’s a bloody parenthetical in this piece about Weinstein being a monster and Tarantino being a monster in a different way. It was such a bizarre, jarring choice to chuck that tidbit into brackets.

No doubt, this is more a reflection of Maureen Dowd’s poor writing, but I found the piece very confusing, with details that were jarring and unnecessary (her father thinks she’s a reincarnated buddhist goddess?), and lack of other details that would have been helpful. Like, Weinstein is a fucking monster, we know…

The two choices aren’t “have a mentally ill child with documented violent tendencies in the room next door” or “throw away the key forever.” With appropriate treatment and medication, there is a good chance that this girl will never offend again, and if she reaches that kind of stability it seems immensely cruel to…

Has anyone really “promised” anything at this point? I’d say we’re still in the “revealing the rottenness” phase...I also don’t really know what “Hollywood” entity could promise things.

This is a fucked up and incorrect idea you are perpetrating that does real harm to survivors of child abuse.
