It’s that same vibe of the dude who hurts you, and then immediately turns it around about how sorry he is and what an awful person he is, so that you’re supposed to end up comforting him instead.

There’s something about this letter that comes off as almost....proud(?) of how much influence they think they have over their ex. Couching it in self flagellation is adding victimhood to narcissism.

It’s very clearly a bullshit attempt to get some free money on spurious legal grounds, but it’s also a bullshit reading of the stories. Holmes wasn’t a robot in the earlier books. Though there is something darkly amusing about the Doyle estate basically shouting “Our cash-cow was basically a one-dimensional cardboard…

“And my other boys are probably gonna look like nerdy white guys.”

Clearly, we need to clarify what the word “mistake” means.

We have watched the deterioration of her mental health for awhile now and this is the right outcome. It was unsettling to watch her each week. She is incredibly unwell, unhappy, angry and drinking/drugging an insane amount. I hope she gets the help she needs.

Yes, it’s a good point, but I was holding back on going there because she’s 15. Even if she’s “in” on it, that’s really young and has more to do with fucked up parenting than her own intrinsic character flaws. And even if she’s totally sincere, she has a lot of learning to do. As I said on another thread, begging AOC…

Cut this shit out. She is a teenager in a dysfunctional family. You are compounding her anguish. Just stop.

The people who voted for it, who proposed it, should all be held liable for the court costs. Bullshit legislation won’t stop until the people pushing it take some kicks in their financial nuts. Right now, there are no consequences that impact them in the slightest, so they just keep pushing constitution-violating laws…

I’m gonna need to hear the audio on that to be convinced she didn’t say “lily white asses.” 

Yep. That she thinks of “what a rational adult does as a matter of course” as “pampering” says a lot. It’s not pampering to do your fair share of household chores.

I find it telling that the LW’s last paragraph is all about her fears that if she doesn’t continue her relationship with her dad he’ll start drinking or self-harming. That says volumes about what she was raised to believe was her responsibility. 

“Doing the laundry” is not “pampering” ffs. It’s doing the basics as a partner in a marriage.

The better question is why would you vote for a grown ass adult who hasn’t figured out libertarianism is nothing more than a selfish fantasy.

That’s not how rabies vaccines work. It’s not one of the mandatory ones, and is only recommended for those who live in areas with a high prevelance of the disease. Furthermore, it’s three shots over the course of a month, and it’s expensive.

HAHAHHA.. you are funny..

It’s chaos. How are kids supposed to try and learn, how are parents supposed to plan for work (if they are working) or childcare... all with the pandemic crisis hanging over everyone’s head. Trump and his chucklefuck lackeys have one talent. And that is to keep finding new ways to make this situation worse.

Before we hear any of the greys talk about how this is ruining those Dems with the ramifications of Clinton....

Those poor girls. I’m really hoping that the abuse they were subjected to gets completely aired out, and that every one of their abusers gets punished.
