You really don’t see the problem with asking a colleague in a professional situation if they’ll watch you masturbate? He has power over the careers/opportunities these women are exposed to. Do you do that at work? Walk into the lunch room and ask the first woman you see if she’ll look at your dick?

For some reason, the fact that they were recruiters/senior members is more dispiriting than anything else. A totally anonymous sex cult is one thing. A cult that has an A-list star like Tom Cruise, even if you don’t like him, is one thing. But a sex cult that claims it can lift you to success, and backs that claim up…

Which is truly unfortunate, because it used to be mad love. RIP HiddleRand.

Their feud started when Rand Paul stole his neighbor’s backup dancers. There’s been a lot of bad blood since then.

I am. I don’t get why we’re avoiding such an obvious option.

Thank you also for the much-needed periodic reminder that Mike Huckabee is garbage.

Lover’s quarrel. Who’s with me on this?

Out of curiosity I looked up requirements to get a gun license. I could get one in quite a few states. I’ve been committed to a psychiatric hospital twice. I’m not violent towards anyone at all (I would likely commit suicide in the throws of mania if I had a gun though). The fact that a state would give me a gun is…

I’m sorry but I actually had to stop reading this article. I found their own gleeful descriptions of their actions to be so repulsive. Who found this type of writing palatable or interesting. Being a self absorbed asshole in a country where you hold enormous power to violate impoverished girls sexually doesn’t strike…

That outfit was the epitome of all of them: they just don’t know when to stop so that they can blend in. Besides being kitschy, the jacket/dress itself would’ve been passable, but then she had to add the matching hat, gloves and purse.

To be fair, a teacher who enjoys bringing science to young kids is the scariest thing Betsy could imagine.

So, in the menacing stranger category, an ultimately OK but potentially harrowing thing happened to me last night. I was walking home in the after work hours last night but the sun had gone down. I live in NYC on a pretty busy block and there are three buildings in a row with lighted awnings. A group of ladies was…

I think, in my completely amateur and untutored opinion, that you’re right about the sleep paralysis diagnosis, but Natalie’s dad can still go fuck himself.

As a 12 stepper myself in one of the S programs, Jane’s advice is right on. There’s a reason they tell you to work the steps in order, you’re not really going to know how to do step 9 without doing 1-8 first. Have faith that the “higher power” aspect will reveal the right thing to do in the course of your step work.

One thing it took me a long time to learn in my 20s was that I don’t even actually WANT to be friends with a lot of people I used to know. They’re fine people, but their lifestyles diverged from mine and it turns out that simply living down the hall from someone for a year in college isn’t enough to sustain a…

Just like child rape, there is only one valid defense to having sex with someone in police custody -

It is not patriarchal to ask good men to stand up for women instead of standing up for bad men. The sad fact of the matter is that men hold most of the power still in many professional industries and if things are going to change in regards to women gaining power, then pervasive sexism and harassment has to stop…

I just wish Syria would shut up already about its goddamn deep dish pizza.

she “dyed my hair blue. Mom wasn’t a fan of this decision. She took one look at me and immediately went out to the nearest drugstore to buy a $10 box of Nice’n Easy. That night, she forced me to dye my hair back to blond.”

The darkest timeline is one in which we have a leader who makes us say, “Eh, Trump wasn’t that bad,”.
