This is an amazing story of perseverance and resilience.

I don’t drink but

My story. I was 16 and intoxicated to the point of being very sick. My friend and her boyfriend were arguing in a bedroom, leaving me alone with a football player who helped me to the bathroom because I was vomiting. He locked the door behind him and attempted to rape me. I fought him and eventually made enough noise…

When I was a teenager, I was raped by a very popular football player and I told no one. It took me 30 years to come to terms with it. Just once I would like to see teen survivors turn the destructive behavior away from themselves and onto the rapist. Just once I would like to see the boy’s house burned down, the boy’s…

What is left of her family is in no way ‘ok’.  The Coleman’s lived in a small town a few miles from where I grew up.  My mom knew her dad-  he was a doctor before dying tragically in a car accident (his children were in the car as well).  They moved to Maryville to get a fresh start after he passed away.  Audrey was…

I don’t remember where this adage is from but “the true measure of a person is how you treat someone who can do nothing for you” or something along those lines. So yeah, Kevin Hart, Katy Perry coming forward to ‘defend’ Ellen isn’t actually helping at all; if anything, it helps confirm the narrative. She’s nice to…

Indeed, DeGeneres did work to rehabilitate Hart’s image after some of his past homophobic tweets cost him his Oscars (remember them?) hosting gig. DeGeneres had Hart on her show to talk about how much he’s learned and grown over the years, and even called the Academy to vouch for him, though ultimately that didn’t…

Did anyone else have a Grandma who was like a ninja/spy at finding deals at fancy old department stores? My Grandma never had have much money, but she always dressed impeccably. My dad says they were the best dressed family in Dorchester. She would make friends with the staff, memorize markdown dates, and know…

I think another solid rule would be if you’re ‘killing’ off the fake identity, don’t blame a real person or group for their death. They’ll want to refute the accusations.

So this woman looked at Rachel Dolezal and said hold my beer? 

Actual German neo-Nazis are active again. It's nauseating. 

It’s similar, but not identical to, the religious version. Men: We are naturally better leaders because we’re more rational and objective, and less likely to be governed by emotions and hormonal swings. Also men: Women need to be locked up and covered because if we see one we might get an erection and go all to pieces.

I think it’s useful as a teachable moment: Awards say more about the people who bestow them than they say about the people who receive them. 

This image makes me nauseous. What a purposeful way to sully, cheapen and destroy and insult the meaning of what was once one of the most important medals to be awarded. The ultimate in sickening.

I don’t understand.

It’s funny how people who use the term “feminazi” are often fine with ACTUAL Nazis.

John Lithgow - can play both lovable and sweet, but then turn on a dime and be menacing and evil.

And we can get a pile of dog shit to play Alan Dershowitz.

Tilda Swinton is a good call. I’ve said for years that Richard Gere should play Epstein (he’s got the look and the chops to play it). And now that Ron Silver is dead, the best choice for Dershowitz is Jeffrey Tambor. (For every reason)

Okay, I’m fully convinced that Tilda Swindon is the best person to play Maxwell. She’s got the hair, the accent, the amazing acting talent, etc. I bet she’d be a better Maxwell than Maxwell.
