My son is big into cars, in large part because my husband is huge about cars so they go to car shows together and watch car videos and pick out cool new Hot Wheels cars together (and my husband would have done the same if we had a daughter).

Yes, this is where I stand. I do feel empathy for him because I think he made a terrible mistake based in panic/stupidity rather than malice. But I feel much more empathy for the victim and her family. And ultimately I'm not cool with someone who could take a life so easily and thoughtlessly being out on the streets.…

Hot shot a young woman point blank in the face for daring to ask him for help after a car accident and got less jail time than many people were expecting him to receive. If he is truly remorseful and had any decency he'd stop his appeals process right now and just accept his sentence.

his case was handled so poorly- but also accurately, which seems rare. his testimony and statement spoke to the rage and anger that accompanied his fear, which is a huge problem in this country. he deserved this sentencing- though i do think he has started to feel remorse, but it seems to me that it started more as…

On #4: So True! How often do we waste all this time trying to be something we are not or making sure we make all the right decisions when really you should focus on having fun.

Excise him from your life like a malignant tumor.

We don't do ignorant people any favors by enabling their ignorance.

The first two letter writers seriously need to cut those friends out of their lives. People who are racist and people who are rude to service employees are the worst kind of people. They don't deserve friends. Life is too short to waste time being friends with awful people who sooner or later will direct their…

Train station, library, at one point in a moving car. Yes.

Juliette wouldn't even sing this shiz.

This. Just joyful. Lovely.

God, I totally forgot about that one. He was great in it! I was obsessed with that movie for a hot minute (and devastated when Em and Ken broke up.)

Oh, I forgot about that! Even when he had only a few scenes, he created a complete character.

Yes, Yes, Yes! He was brilliant in that role. I love that movie.

My favorite role of his was from "Dead Again."

In my experience it does get easier. Maybe that's because a therapist told me when I was 24ish that for most of the majorly depressed, things do get better after 30, and at the time I believed her because it sounded doable, just six more years, I can hack that.
