Faithful io9er here I am so proud of Evan he is my favorite! Also negro advent calender smooth took me out

Troll harder.

Body image issues can come from plenty of places, but I was an overweight kid and in the 5th grade, I wanted to stop going to school because 3 students had decided to just vocally comment on my weight all day, every day including coming up with mean nicknames for me that changed my surname into the name of a farm…

Have you not met white people before? Hate strikes have been a thing for a longgggg time. Being “pro-union” or “liberal” doesn’t necessarily lead to being pro-people of color or pro-human decency.

The people who think Oprah isn’t qualified to be President completely misunderstand what it takes for a black woman, for any woman but especially a black woman, to create a media and business empire. The whole thing is fundamentally a political act, unless you were that one PA on set that Seth Meyers mentioned, Jeremy…

54% of white women voted for Trump.

I took one for the team and did it for you. Let me give you the gist:

Girl, why?

Yeah, the word ally is a good way to describe them: say they’re down *on paper* but when help is actually needed there are conditions, excuses, and the situation must benefit them.

That’s an interesting take. Maybe you should address your concern to White women specifically. Considering that White women were/are majorly represented in Oprah’s fandom, and 53% of White women believed a misogynistic, bigoted, celebrity with zero political experience was qualified for the highest office in the land,…

Jezebel = Beckyhell. No thank you.

Family, bop on over to Jezebel and see how tempered the comments are on Oprah’s speech.

She would surely take time to actually *learn* about what the presidency entailed, and I’ll bet she’d be goddamn great at it.

I’d choose another picture / still to go with this headline.

My mom sat on the couch next to me, listening to Oprah, tearing up because she’s one of those unnamed single moms who worked her ass off to make sure I went to college and had every opportunity. Which made me tear up. So now I need to go out in that world and be the biggest badass I can be, so I can make Mom and…

Sounded super Presidential. Oprah, I know there’s no dignity it politics, but c’mon.

Ugh. He took his Laptop and the Wii U Deluxe thing, which makes me very concerned. I searched his phone & the main computer to best of my ability and only found a video from 2006 of me changing in laundry room (creepy, but not as bad as this). He had saved Suicide Girls photos that seemed really normal. The women…

This is exactly it. As I told another commenter, there was another incident with him 4 years ago (something totally different), but he gaslit me and I forgave him and was IN THERAPY for these things right now. He knew I was in therapy to save our marriage because of things HE HAD DONE, then this. I just cannot believe…

Just a head’s up that couples counselling is actually not recommended in cases of abuse, as abusers are very clever manipulators and will often turn the therapist against the victim and use them to further abuse them. Especially where gaslighting has occurred, couples counselling is not a good idea.

I am getting a divorce. What complicates it is having a young child though. YUCK. He needs to get help in order to be a good father.
