Not only that, but they treat it like a lease for certain plans. I had to sign a 12 month contract to ensure my price plan. But the other side of the contract says that THEY will PROVIDE POWER. Not me having to look for it if it goes out. I fucking hate living in TX sometimes. 

You’re not being cynical, poor girl does not have statistics on her side: high profile person, 17 years old, hostility from others because she identifies as a member of LGBT+ community. As a therapist at a university, outside of the “high profile” part, I have met lots of Jojo Siwas. Good thing is, IF the relationship…

I am not a BIPOC, and know next to nothing about Black women’s hair. But if there is something that I except to be a no-brainer, using Gorilla Glue would have to be a huge no-no.
Also, I know not to touch her hair... ever.  

I have a lot of strong feelings about this, and I hate to say, but many of my peers have been causing some of my distress as well. I am psychologist, and I know several psychologist friends, who are only doing telehealth, using theier status as a “front-line worker” as a reason to get vaccinated early. These are…

I know that Perry can be a little polarizing for some folks out there, but I am beyond happy that he is doing this. He seems like a genuinely good guy who wants to help, and him putting out the facts while acknowledging history & the fears of the vaccine could go a long way to get more people to take it.

Well, it worked for Seventh Day Adventist!

Oh boy, I’m not sure how I am still alive after my experience. I dated a co-worker off and on for about 8 months in my mid 20s. It was ok, but neither of us were in the best state of mind. I was often a negative Nelly, somewhat depressed at times and just had poor self-confidence. She lost her father a few years…

I keep hearing and reading about her being a pre-med student, and as someone who works in higher ed, I can safely say that the “pre-med” thing is complete BS. Any undergrad can call themselves pre-med.

I don’t necessarily disagree with you, he was very likely never serious about the relationship because she was definitely the means to the attention/admiration that he craves (or means to some other end he was seeking). But, and I didn’t say this explicitly, the relationships between these two types tend to be…

While it is obvious I have never met either of these people, I have met lots of people in relationships like these two (BTW - I’m a clinical psychologist). He seems to have a Narcissistic personality and possibly has psychopathic features, and I would not be surprised at all if she had Borderline personality features…

I remember telling a couple friends who considered themselves “undecided” and not taking a liking to Trump back in 2016 that everything he is doing and saying isn’t something we shouldn’t have seen coming. He’s just saying out loud (sometimes incoherently) what every other Republican is thinking.

Don’t forget about Jonathan Majors playing KANG the Mother Fucking Conquerer!

As a person with a disability, I can safely say that while this past year and a half has been hard, but we have had some high points for my people. Bran ascended to the throne (there going to have to wheel on that thing) and both Biden & Jake Tapper gave us a shout out (#cripthevote).

Beshear won due to Bevin fucking with teacher’s pensions. That was enough right there to galvanize all those White, conservative folks (probably a good portion of which are teachers all across the state) to vote him out.

Michael, thank you so much for this. As a White man, who grew up in Louisville KY, I can safely say that sadly I was either unaware of many of these facts or only learned of them as an adult, including the death of Alberta Odell Jones, through my own personal interests in wanting to learn more. Your writing on here…

I had the same thought. What the fuck are they supposed to do? Encourage people to vote, but don’t vote too hard or pray over their vote?

Hey, don’t forget about MJ Hegar (D) vs John Cornyn (R) down here in TX. She is an Air Force veteran and some people think she has a chance down here (granted, these are the same people who thought Beto had a chance against Cruz, but I digress).

I work in the counseling center of a large school down in TX, and the budget issues here are so confusing.

Hey, I am a psychologist working at a university counseling center and have experience working with LGBTQIA+ folks including running a therapy group for them. I can safely say that your response was damn near perfect compared to what a lot of other LGBTQIA+ folks hear from their parents.

I was wondering when this would get more national news...
