I taught at a Junior High and one of my students had a father who was an honest to goodness self proclaimed white supremacist. The California state educational guidelines say that we need to teach some basics about the history of Islam, and I agree that its important. This dad was not pleased. He confronted me once in

It is also worth reading her autobiography.

This is the absolute worst.

My brother is the president of a chapter of SAE in Iowa and him and I were talking about some ways to show solidarity to the Black community in light of all of this. We talked about maybe getting in touch with a traditionally black fraternity or even the Black Student Union and ask them

Ok Phyllis Schlafly is The Worst but maybe we should focus on attacking her (horrible) ideas instead of her hairstyle? For the sake of Feminism and everything.

Fair or not, the I <3 Ferguson signs are associated with people who want "things to go back the way they were" and plenty of people of color are quick to point out that "the way things were" in Ferguson/STL/America were NOT ok or safe for Black people. So theres a lot of charged feelings about those signs because

Yeah we were/are delivering supplies to some shut ins in Canfield and that area. Last weekend my family got to do art projects with the kids there. I love Ferguson (not in the cheesy sign way. I really do). Weve thought about moving there.

Im in Ferguson a few times a week. My office is in St Louis but I live in St Robert. I work for the Episcopal Diocese which has been pretty involved. St. Stephens is one of our churches (where the food pantry is). So anyways...I'm around. Let me know if you ever need anything!

Have you read much about Ferguson October? A lot of the action is actually in STL City. Go to the website.

Me and my family will be there. We live about 2.5 hours away. I cant offer you a place to stay but we can meet up if you want.

I am utterly not surprised. And then depressed by my utter lack of surprise.

I did back-up boyfriends like, practically professionally. I never dated someone without still flirting with/texting at least a few other guys all at the same time. I serially dated from the time I was like 10 til I got married. I was never without someone.

That all stopped when I got engaged and married though. I

I was never hazed and never witnessed hazing in my chapter of Tri Delta.

Recruitment was basically about choosing who we wanted to represent us. We wanted young women who were going to be involved in our activities and get good grades. Being cute helped and being stylish helped (a lot) but if you were cute/stylish

I did tapping first too. Now (I moved and have a different therapist) I do audio cues from headphones.

Holy shit this comment section is triggering.

You are describing my life.
I am 26 with complex PTSD as a result of childhood and adolescent sexual abuse.
I was also diagnosed with EDNOS (before they changed the DSM and now its not a thing anymore...they havent bothered to re categorize me).

Anyways...hearing this study and realizing other people have both issues,

Guys can I just tell you about my Olive Garden experience?

I dont normally eat there...it probably happens once every few years. But its kind of one of my favorite places to go with family to go drinking. The drinks are yummy and cute and reasonably priced. They are fun to get with appetizers. The underage folks

dude yeah but I pretty much use them as a vehicle for soy sauce so i didn't even mind

it seems we have opposite problems. I feel like we are that nursery rhyme about jack sprat and his wife except screwing up food.
