Guys imagine if HRC had said something about fucking subway tokens.

That’s awful. I hope the felony conviction is dropped once he completes his probation, or he won’t be eligible to vote, will have trouble finding jobs, all because of a prank that didn’t hurt anyone.
Bull fucking shit. I reported boys grabbing my tits MULTIPLE TIMES to my school and they fucking got detention. So no, this is not okay but don’t act like boys don’t get away with this bullshit EVERYDAY.
I agree with everything you’ve said, but it’s hard to drum up sympathy when he all but admits he is playing zero role in his kids day to day lives, pays to maintain a gym membership and has qualms about allowing someone else to do the job he can’t right now which is to support his daughter. The system is totally…
Lol so you were going to disparage the writer and then realized that he’s black so you can’t disparage him? Jezebel is on fucking fire today.
For some reason this reminds me of the time my biological father went up in arms to my elementary school because of some “bully named Gus” that I had told him I was afraid of. My kindergarten teacher, who he complained to, actually knew my mom from a previous job and called her up to find out what was going on, since…
Author is the best troll ever. He knew Jezebel readers wouldn’t be able to resist reading this to all collectively agree he is a jerk. Yet look at those clicks pouring in. Dude is getting paid now....
plus does he, you know, talk to his daughter??? wouldnt his daughter let him know if he was a good person or not?
You’ve got every right to be frustrated and nothing to be sorry for. I had no idea how the suspension thing works and really appreciate you explaining it.
I understand how flawed the system is. On paper it seems like taking away a drivers license or the license needed to perform a job seems shortsighted. But I’ve also heard a mediator say “If they make consistent payments, even if it’s $5 a week, we won’t take the license”. $5?? If that doesn’t show that the court is…
I’m thinking that Mr. ‘Creator of Cultural Content’ needs to get off his dead ass and swallow his pride and get a real job that pays. If you can put two words together, McDonald’s will make you a manager in 2 weeks. It sucks, but it pays the bills until you get back on your feet.
The fact that it didn’t even occur to this guy that he didn’t know anything about his daughter’s mother’s live-in-boyfriend until his _ex-wife_ pointed it out to him tells me that he is not, in fact, super-involved with his daughter.
Why not ask your daughter how she feels about you terminating your parental rights if she’s old enough? If you’re not really in her life, the other man is likely her “dad.” That might hurt you, but her perspective is important. Her mother’s perspective is important, too.
“Have you lost your mind?” Amy asked. “What do you even know about this man who would become her father?”
I definitely can’t have kids right at this moment because I’m trying to follow my dreams and (a bit selfishly) not ready to be financially stable for a child currently.
I am a writer and artist. I have also worked as a freelance journalist. And I don’t have kids because I can’t afford them. I don’t have either the time or the money. I just see the writer of this piece as being someone who was able to toss the load — both financial and emotional — of raising his children onto other…
Yeah. I’m not a parent and so I can’t judge how hard it must be to try to be an artist AND have kids. I definitely can’t have kids right at this moment because I’m trying to follow my dreams and (a bit selfishly) not ready to be financially stable for a child currently. But I do want to have kids soon and am trying to…
I just wish that side could be heard from a better example of someone doing everything in his power to make ends meet and facing an unfair system. This reads like giving up.
I wouldn’t bother. It’s started already. Not pretty.
