I never gave you permission to steal my life.

Enjoy it while it lasts, kid. Being a smart kid is hell as an adult. People have so many expectations for you, so many goals, so many AP classes. You have so much promise as a young thing, so bright and clever, and suddenly you look around and you’re sitting in your pajamas, watching Netflix, doing nothing with your…

We used to call it "Tiny Emperor Syndrome." Because you are so powerless on the bottom rung, when you figure out a way to move up one, even if it's just to something pointless like "shift supervisor" all the New! Shiny! Power! goes to your head and you lose your damn mind and turn into Mussolini, because BY GOD THE…

I’m from Scranton. Whenever I visit, which is not often, I’m reminded why it was once referred to as “the armpit of America”. It’s a backwards, anti-intellectual area full of cranky elderly people who stare out their windows to spy on you.

God, I am being so triggered right now to being in my early 20s. I feel like I can hear the exact tone of all of these bosses voices.

"Outside the coasts, Gina is a size that is completely acceptable and desirable to many men"

Does anyone remember Die by the Sword? I'm sad that was only on PC...

"We decry the hate and violence espoused by an alumnus of Jesuit, and we ask all members of our family to unite in expunging this sort of nonsense from mainstream discourse and furthermore women'sbodiesarenottheirown."

you stay away from my man. Someday he is going to lift that restraining order.

What! I'm going to be the one who fixes him!

nothing will ever shake my misguided love for this man. I understand him. I can change him. Hes really not so bad you guys.

Meh. Even when I was single with no kids, I never thought the moms were slackers. This woman was a dick and, I hate it when people have to have something to happen to them to change their dickish ways.

Don't schedule meetings with anyone, parent or not, at 4:30 pm. Unless you are a monster.

I prefer to play my video games sans fascism, but I suppose I can tolerate Heinlein's primitive worldview if it means jumping around launching mininukes at Skinnies.

"Papers Please" is a perfect example of a game that manages to get both the "message" and "game" aspects down. It also manages the herculean task of actually being a game, and not some static-imaged garbage with writing that anyone could shart out onto a whiny Tumblr.

Pay money for this? For a PowerPoint style game designed to "teach" people how rape is traumatic? Released on Steam? As a one-time-through, not-very-interactive experience designed to shock and angst you into being upset about something we already fully know about and are working to fix on a grand scale? Next thing…

I'll go back and read it all, I promise, but i wanted to let you know, I laughed out loud at your pain.

How is this many years later and BSB are still whiny bitches? 'NSYNC 4LYFE.

I never felt any way about the word "female" until I was on another blog and a guy chimed in an said that, in his experience, most of the men he knew that used it did so as a sort of substitute for the word bitch. He used a few sentences to illustrate:

My husband got some Warhammer figures to paint, and this happened (Malice still has this box).
