And some of us consider “homosexual” to be a medicalized slur, so.
I found this actual footage of James Baldwin responding to Lemon’s comparison:
Is there a word for terrified and disgusted to the point of queasiness? THANKS A LOT, KELLY.
But at least John Herbert Sullivan gave us ADVOCAT!
THANK YOU. I used to daydream about being on that show and Iyanla would be my coach/therapist. I know, reality show, fake therapy, charlatan, but...I think because it was on before reality shows really became a “thing” that it felt more authentic, somehow? I will just never forget the woman who couldn’t cut her hair…
I assumed it was some new drug lingo I wasn’t young enough to know. Like that time a few months ago someone was talking about Molly and I was like “do I know anyone named Molly?”
“I felt violated, and my body said wait a minute, this ain’t right.”
Yeah, I think this Bunny person doesn’t actually have a clue and/or just doesn’t care about things like facts and understanding. They have yet to respond to the fact that they were wrongity wrong wrong wrong about bench books on domestic violence being “imaginary.”
Did you really just say that bench books on domestic violence are imaginary? Here, lemme school you with just a few examples:
Having other options is not acting like a social worker. Being a decent human being is not fucking acting like a fucking goddamn social worker. FFS. And holy shit, if judges don’t actually consult available benchbooks or educate themselves even a little bit on the issues of the case, then what the hell are they doing?…
I’m not a lawyer and I’m not in Florida—the laws very from state to state. But judges always have options. At a minimum, Collins could have fined her instead of jailing her, which still would’ve been shitty, but at least wouldn’t have retraumatized the survivor in the same way and wouldn’t have separated her from her…
She was acting like a judge, all right: a deeply misguided judge who clearly has not done her homework on this subject or just doesn’t give a shit. Every group I know that does work on this topic has been saying for years and years that this is an ineffective, counterproductive, and harmful practice. She had other…
TBH, I was so distracted by his weird hair in the pics that I didn’t pay much attention to the penis. It sorta looks like pictures of Billy Idol or something.
Having gone through the worst period of depression in my life about two years ago, it’s better now! I mean, it’s still hard and I’m currently in a bit of a dip again, but it’s miles and miles from where I was and I can see that now. Depression is a horrible, lying piece of poop, but the only constant in this world is…
Sending good thoughts your way! And also, maybe it’s slightly helpful to realize how much better treatments are now than they were even 10 years ago for cancer? It’s so different now. You’re totally going to kick cancer’s ass.
My newest roommate works a job where she has to engage with people all day and before she moved in, she just straight up told us that when she gets home from work, she doesn’t want to talk at all and just needs to chill alone in her room for a while. Knowing that up front was super helpful! I’m semi-social myself, so…
Only in the comments section do you find someone who completely rewrites what I said into something completely different. If you will bother to turn your brain on for just a moment, you’ll see that I said dislike was coexisting uncomfortably with my anti-nonconsensual-touching. COEXISTING means that I am in, in fact,…
No, no. It’s more that there’s a small, petty part of me that hates to feel compassion for someone I don’t like. But then I’m like “really, deedledoo?” and I get over it. After posting hyperbolic remarks.
