That is awful. I am so sorry someone did that to you. How dare that commenter even ask if you’re just “covering up” or whatever. Udfhjkfdshjgdsfghjfsdhjdsagdsgsdgjkhsd gross gross gross situation

I am so sorry. I hope you are handling it okay. Step away if you need to. Don’t let those angry broken men drag you down. :(

THE CHURCH OF MEAT SHALL SEND THE MEATQUISITION AFTER YOU!

I really hate how she got such a shitty reputation in the 90's and early 2000's for being a bitch. She seems just lovely and a lot of fun.

I also really appreciate how she says ‘we’ on everything. Her name is attached to a million things, and dozens of books, yet she was very intentional in her inclusion of everyone.…

Am I the only one who suspects that alt-right men are a huge chunk of the audience for this?

I totally understand that fear and distrust of men. I have had men violate my clearly defined boundaries and/or stayed silent when I felt uncomfortable.

Well everything in this was just delightful and now it feels like it should be summer but instead Maine’s getting another 12 inches of snow tomorrow and I just cannot.

I think my biggest problem with the adaptation was that it entirely removed L’Engle’s core anti-authoritarian message and essentially turned it into a very typical “just believe in yourself!” narrative for the movie. I think they didn’t trust their audience, like you’ve said. But I feel like now, more than ever, we…

Ahh! So thrilled you two got to meet her and have a lovely conversation about wine! I think if I could be friends with any celeb, she’d be my first pick. I “met” her at a book signing in a Macy’s around 10 years ago, and she was just the most beautiful person I’d ever seen. Her skin was illuminating. Did you find her…

I loved this movie so much. I enjoyed the book as a girl, and it worked for me on that level. More than anything, though, it felt like a love letter to my 13-year-old self: another biracial girl with a Black mom and an absent dad, who hated her hair and glasses and thought she would never be good enough. It was so, so…

She did write a couple of books, right? Maybe she’ll keep doing that. But Edie Beale’s Costume is right, she doesn’t have to. I have a soft spot for people who make a ton of money and then just... stop. They have enough to live well and don’t need to play along with the more-more-more-ism of our culture.

I obviously don’t know your friend (as far as I know), but it’s been my experience that people who need to be in a relationship all the time tend to be uncomfortable being alone with their own thoughts.

Kaley Cuoco is one of those people that *needs* to be in a relationship. I have a good friend who is like this. She just split up with her husband of 7 years (together for 10 total) in January and she’s already dating someone else. I’m baffled by it.

Jesus, Rico. Take a creative writing course and get some treatment for that misogyny before it metastasizes.

I’m glad to hear someone else say this, because I honestly think this too. The number of men who have just tried to strangle me during sex without asking (I’m not into it and even the slightest suggestion of violence or force turns me off instantly, but even if that weren’t the case, you can’t just DO that shit…

You’re talking about the “harm” that generalizing does in the context of a conversation about violent misogyny? Get some perspective dude.

even as scientists are now turning to long time natural remedies in the face of antibiotic resistance? even as studies into meditation actually show demonstrable effects physically and mentally once they deigned to study them? even as physicians regularly prescribe probiotics since new study after new study is proving…

Also what the fuck:

‘Let’s just get this over with.’

I had a very brief porn career and while I never experienced anything close to this, it left me pretty bruised emotionally. Having an average build kinda made it hard to book jobs because I wasn’t heavy enough for BBW but not thin enough for most “average” shoots. I certainly left with body image issues but the men I…
