My dad was an abusive shit. He yelled, he intimidated, and he slapped. He once tried to make myself and my 2 sisters, ages 7,6,5, beat each other with wiffle bats because we were fussing with each other about something. That same year we were forced to stand facing the wall with heavy books held straight out, and he…

I’ll take the viewpoint of the multiple Pulitzer prize winning Tampa Bay Times over the Miami Heralds ass kissing of the right wing Cubanos in S Florida.

I’m fucking shocked and horrified. And enraged. As I am EVERY GODDAMN TIME THIS HAPPENS.

I wipe my ass with that verdict and will spit in the eye of anyone who says that shit to or around me.

Thank you for these. I hadn’t seen them before. They are stunning.

Different. Rosemary has always been characterized as borderline mentally retarded.

My own diagnosis has always been depression,possibly bipolar, with psychotic features.  I have also always, always had periods of psychosis before I came out of the worst of a depression. And the psychosis mimicked, a great deal, the attributes of schizophrenia.

A beautiful piece of writing—and the descriptions and understanding of Lucia are as good as any I have ever read. The Joyce\Barnacle family has long been an interest of mine.

Yeah—they’re already back to milking every goddamn story as if it’s the revelation of the dead sea scrolls. Calm down media. Don’t fuck everything up now by being insatiable view whores. There is enough fucking legitimate news. No fillers, PLEASE!

I’m utterly ashamed of myself for wanting to LOL. Thank you.

Oh for fucking cuck’s sake. What a giant moron and asshole. He can have dominion over the pimple on my left ass cheek.

Thank you for reporting this. I’m not a bit surprised—but facts cry out to be acknowledged. Especially about the rump family grifters.

The very fine book Myrle Evers wrote, For Us, the Living, was one of the first books I read as a 9 or 10 year old. And even as a child I knew what heroes these people were. That book should be required reading for every 10-12 year old. As should Black Boy and Uncle Tom’s Children. And if you would argue that those…

I love this idea. We American’s need to be on the streets like this. The difference is that most of us are not risking our live (Black and brown people are) by being out protesting. These Russians against the Putin machine know how dangerous it is to oppose Putin. And they are doing it anyway. VIVE Russia!

If she had the sense of a tick she would stfu. But she doesn’t. So we get to listen to Miss Princess of America keep making stupid and false statements. But she learned at her daddy’s knee. All that privilege and no fucking clue.

Misery? Is that you, Misery?
