girl yes, one of the main reasons i got contacts was so i could see what i was doing when i put my damn face on. my prescription’s turrible; lasik might not even be able to fix all my shit!

R can’t pay up 100k: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA SUCK MY DICK

Yeah this “durrrr you can make it urrrselfff” reaction is dumb too. If I bought all the fucking shit that goes into a single Sweetgreen salad, I’d have to eat that same salad all week before all the lettuce and shit went bad. I’d rather just get my damn $12 salad once and enjoy it.

Even after seeing all the horrific things people have said about R’s victims, they still spoke up. I don’t know if I could have. I hope they find some kind of justice.

“Why do people of color run away when I barge into their meeting where they’re shit-talking me for barging into their meetings?”

Is it strange that I inherently trust Mandy Moore? Idk if it’s the Walk to Remember nostalgia, but she’s always seemed like a decent gal.

Now that additional information has come out, I have a healthy skepticism towards his story. However, I do stand by my previous assertion that conservatives were willing to jump on any and all early, unconfirmed details about this case in order to claim it was a hoax. Generally speaking, I’m willing to believe…

Damn, I love how clear they made it. Hairstyle policing is anti-black racism. We all know it, but it’s just wild to see a government entity confirm and codify it.

or you can hit bargain places like nordstrom rack or tj maxx, if price is a concern. my old roommate is about 6ft tall and could snag $100 jimmy choo pumps in her size, since so few women wear it. but it does require some hunting, which is tiresome.

YAS, friend! people need to stop acting like the amount of fat on your body is the be-all end-all of your health status. i’m like, the definition of skinny-fat, but my technically overweight co-worker works out about 5x a week, cardio and strength. she is healthier than me, full stop. if you ran our bloodwork, i would…

really though. so much of this body positivity stuff is fucking weak. some people do it well, but if i see another weight loss picture tagged “body positive” instead of “diet culture positive” i’m gonna fucking scream.

This is incredibly beautiful. I’m so glad you had such a strong, invested, passionate matriarchy there with you to celebrate black history and black excellence! I wish I could say the same for myself as an immigrant. There aren’t many who look like me who have been able to influence American history. And I’ve lived…

The things conservatives are saying about this man are fucking disgusting. All the violence perpetrated against people of color, against women, against women of color are myths to them. If it could hurt white men, it never fucking happened and you better shut your fucking mouth about it.

HOOOOOOOOOOOO you went deep. Appreciate the digging. Can’t say I’m surprised by what you found.

I agree. It’s about holding potential abusers’ feet to the fire, asking questions, investigating, and not letting them get away with “Nope. She lies.” as the only excuse.

True. The patriarchy and its misogynistic trappings are a pond we all swim in. It ain’t just men, but it is heavily influenced by prevailing male opinions.

Good to know! Glad that other stones hold up well, too. I’d just read one too many stories about chipped rings, and it made me paranoid lol.

Old feud; pretty obvious to see that if you bother to read the rest of the comments. But you didn’t.

I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately. The idea of a “credible” victim and a “credible” story stratifies victims in a way that will further harm already at-risk populations. We see that in this story, where Ms. Watson says she was targeted by Fairfax because she had already tried to report a different sexual…
