Does that mean in two years when I’m being handed my phd, my memories of being assaulted by men will be magically replaced with new memories in which I pet kittens with philosophers? Because that would sure make nighttime public transit less of an anxiety crap shoot.

If Brad Pitt wants the public to ignore his divorce he should have Terrence Malick direct it.

Don’t talk about it.

As a parent myself and the child of someone who taught teenagers for 35 years, I can atest that kids are often difficult to terrible. However, I’d say this awful dipshit should be stripped of her teachers license immediately. She clearly lacks the temperament to deal with humans in general, much less kids.

Sorry, this teacher isn’t cool and this topic isn’t funny. I’ve taught college for 15 years, and I wouldn’t say this to 18 year olds, much less 10th graders. You’re in an immense position of power as a teacher. It’s really important not to mock your students. I had one teacher in HS who consistently made fun of…

You should consider moving to Walnut Creek. You’d like it.

Fuck that. Those in core Cascadia always look down on those of us in the bioregions. Bloody Corists.

The “accidental” tweet that broke the story was an unsolicited dick pic sent to a college student who had tweeted him about…

NBC= No Black Champions?

I’m continually baffled about the full-throated demand for visible patriotism. It’s possible to be very patriotic without plastering the flag over every part of your body, wearing flag pins, or arranging one’s limbs in required formation during moments of high emotion. There’s no requirement to put one’s hand over…

I’ve never taken an Uber, either. Or a Lyft, or whatever that other one is. They’re odious companies and I don’t give them my money.

I’ll do my part to remedy this by posting one of my favorite images of Hillary. Hillary looks like one bad HBIC in this campaign poster.

There is literally no way for them to get the help and support they need to put what was done to them behind them. I work with abused kids for a living—the best we can ever hope to do is mitigate some of the damage.

Let’s put it into perspective: yes, his father was abusive. Yes, you could say that the way he was a child star made it so he never had a childhood.
