I used to date a guy who would go on about what a great mother I’d be to his kids, and I always responded that I’m sure he’d be an entertaining clown for the 2-4 hours a month he’d pay attention to those kids.

HE LITERALLY GHOSTED HER!

Was present for a graduate professor telling a classroom full of people this was real. When I corrected him privately, he told me I didn’t know what I was talking about, and when I pointed him to the flawed studies, the NPS response to the attack mentioned, and the context of the NPS trying to slow the push of women…

All-round bad-ass and the world’s last bulwark against complete anarchy Queen Elizabeth II - purple and a hat during her most recent visit to the Vatican:

Haha, you go Angela!!! I find this all kind of depressing....

As grotesque as I find Ivanka, and pathetic and tragic as I find Meliana, this isn’t on them at all, and isn’t “dress up” or “costume”.

This goes hand in hand with the “didn’t have a clear message problem.” Dems in general have spent years campaigning to the center with the attitude that their base has nowhere else to go, and it finally caught up to them in a huge way.

As someone with a child, I say good for fucking you without the snarky tone that Twinkle’s comment seemed to convey. I was on the fence about having children and if my husband had said “nah” I would have been perfectly happy just having a bunch of dogs and no kids.

I am so happy with my own decision to NEVER PUSH A HUMAN BEING OUT OF MY BODY EVER IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM. I become more comfortable with it with each passing year and terrifying article.

Omigod. Gotta say that your story got me terribly upset. But the postscript — the fake suicide, Canada, and the knife fight leading to inevitable the breakup — was deeply satisfying. It confirms my belief that even when I am unable to do anything about my subjugation to someone's unbelievable fuckery, their character…

Oh wow, that is so horrid...except for the last paragraph, which reminded me of a Dear Abby column I once cut out and saved. A woman who'd been cheated wrote to Abby, and Abby's response was to share a Chinese parable:

To say something lame about how fucked up this is feels like the biggest understatement ever. It really is fucked up though. I like that you left them with a bowl full of vomit though. That's just great timing.

My mother was my father's third wife. Probably a mistress before being a girlfriend, although she didn't know it at the time. They dated for six months before getting married. A quick acceleration to be sure. But my mom decides to wait more than five years of marriage before getting pregnant. She wants to know he's…

On the upside, you were able to rid yourself of several cancerous growths that year. Good riddance.

"she and I had had a brief relationship"

So...two bullets dodged?

I stupidly dated a poet who used one of my memories in a poem that was published in the fucking New Republic. He was also a cheater. My favorite moment was when he walked into a bar and I was sitting there with two of his former girlfriends, talking about his cheating ways. The look on his face was priceless.

Dude. Hugs

About seven years ago I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. I was lucky in that it was fairly isolated so they just chopped that sucker out, but I was devastated by the treatments. Just.. so so sick. An old friend of mine (we'd shared a really shitty apt in NYC in my early 20s and during this time she and I had had a…

I think it would be a nice Jezebel article to critique said letter. You know for giggles. Then sending a link to the letter writer via Facebook or some other public forum for "feedback".

My boyfriend and I have been together just over 2 years, and there are only two mentions/pictures of one another on FB. One is posing with this super creepy looking doll manequin thing and the other was when we accidentally stepped in the same dog shit, took a picture and labeled it Stepped in the same dog shit as my…
