right? Like Huma is a bad mom for leaving her kid for an amazing and important career objective, meanwhile Michelle “Dead Eyes” Duggar has 1,000 kids and has about 5 minutes for each one per month as a result. but #jesus

I like what I think you are saying but just to clarify- you’re not implying that being more present physically means more nurturing right? And being more classically nurturing doesn’t mean he’d be a better parent, right? Maybe for babies and toddlers thats true, idk. Only speaking from my specific experience of…

omg no. all of the rounds of applause to your friend. and you. for appreciating the shittyness of that. both of your kids are lucky.

Oh, I think that’s very common. Or at least adding my name to that list of ‘kids’ who went through that at some point(now 28). The anger management is a great start but I just hope your friend doesn’t assume that dad is going to be better to the kids than her. My mom made that assumption and shared custody, and he…

said something like this above but I’m now so fucking proud of my mom for prioritizing her career instead of being some idealized PTA mom. She has a passion and (somewhat of) a life. She loves us more than all of that and would bury a body for me if I asked her to, but being at every bake sale wouldn’t have proved…

yes. I was a little bitch about this sometimes (especially, I think, because my dad was a mysogynist dick about how she worked and didn’t take his name and what kind of parent/woman he thought that made her) but now I’m so fucking proud that my mom was a full time social worker, basically a single mom, and that I was…

THIS is why I’m super pumped that my semi-estranged brother recently told me he doesn’t ever want kids. Our dad was mostly worthless but took credit for everything good he/we ever did and as we enter our late 20's and ‘adulthood’ I’ve been worried about what that might feel like to see it repeated in another…

1) did NOT expect that kind of twitter personality from marcia cross

agreed on tom and I used to feel that way in regards to ariana, but I’m starting to feel like she actually sucks all around. Got to know stassi and kristen via periscope and podcasts and I think they’re actually the cool ones. Ariana played the “cool, above it all” girl but I feel like thats all a farce for some…

ah, ok. that’s a lot better I guess. Sorry I misinterpreted your comment. Yeah, I can’t imagine turning down help with depression if it was offered in a private, caring way. My estranged dad just got kicked out of a top tier rehab program (called Caron) and in case I needed less reasons to dislike him— as someone who…

I feel like ariana and tom are going to be the main source of drama next season. I've never gone from loving a couple to hating so fast

already posted this gif but i feel it applies here as well. #neverforget

so disappointed that none of them drunkenly periscoped last night. I want more details nowwwwwwwww. they’re actually my favorite couple on the show and I legit like them both and want them to make it. I don’t know why, and I’m going to talk to my therapist about it, because on paper I would think tom might have some…

I’d completely agree with you if it wasn’t done on tv. That she used his depression as a plot on the show is callous and any therapists worth anything wouldn’t consider a public intervention that the person didn’t previously sign up for.

no meme has ever made me more sad for kylie.

Thank you for what you said and for posting the link. Sadly, I’m new to this story. Disappointed in myself and Jezebel’s ambiguous phrasing. May this poor woman rest in piece and get justice.

These are exactly the kinds of topics I’m going to desperately miss if something more drastic happens to this lovely jezebel community. so last night I signed up for my very first reddit account. (not as old as I sound lol). So where are all of you hip womanists subscribing to on reddit? Places I should seek out or…

I’m from dc living in miami- where are you hoping to move? I wish I was qualified to work in some of the art museums/galleries down here.

*starring* for the audible guffaw I just emitted reading that, but tape one for life!

My VHS set came with a poster of that scene that I hung “hidden” in my 10 y/o closet. Loved Leo for at least five years after that and will forever love Kate’s bewbs<3
