Ha!

I call it "the grim period at the end of every sentence." This is beautiful, this is awful, this is mundane...it all logically concludes with "and life is awful, life is truly awful." Getting over it is like telling someone with a broken leg to run themselves out of the pain.

Ohhh, our culture's obsession with "function" and it's link to capitalism and oppression is a rant I could go on for dayssss.

Is it really for you to "buy"? Even where the cost of water is at or near the cost of soda (soda is still cheaper than a dollar gallon of water—at Rite-Aid, a "pharmacy", there's a deal for 2 liters of soda at the low low price! of 99 cents; In downtown Oakland, "pharmacies" are everywhere, and save a few ethnic…

Me too! I posted elsewhere in this thread how that very thing literally made me get into a pulling-blades-out-of-my-lady-schick, gonna-fuck-myself-up kind of depression. No joke, for some of us, this is not the right advice.

Yea, it's so different for anyone. For me the thing that helped me get out of the level-4 suicidal depression was actually embracing my solitary nature. It was realizing that the "trying to be an extrovert" thing was doing me in—I was so bad at it, and so unfulfilled by it, I internalized that I'm a fuck up who can't…

In other, seemingly similar news, the WSJ has found the "answer" to happiness for introverts (whom I suspect are particularly prone to depression because our introversion is this TERRIBLE AWFUL NO GOOD THING that needs a ~solution~). Wanna know how quiet, less extemporaneous people can be happier and perhaps even…

Oh god, that dangling preposition in the second paragraph. It kills. It kills twice. It kills dead bodies. o.O

Yes. Yes I do. Because soda *is* cheaper (which is to say, the corn syrup in it is subsidized), particularly from the convenience stores and corner markets located en route to all the other places people go in a day.

This is a great response that is so much less psycho than my own. I'm wagering the folks who are crying bad parent don't have children or live somewhere where access to healthy food and water are plentiful.

My last comment to you was completely batshit because no coffee, but ugh, this whole contingent of the Jezebel commentariat who are just so disgusted by parents who don't give their children water and fruit are really showing their class privilege.

Right? Because everyone in ~the first world~ has access to delicious, fresh, clean water and local seasonal produce! In abundance! Everyone! And if they don't, obvis they're the result bad parents. Also lazy. And doomed to obesity and the ugliez. It's a bummer our socialist president will provide their fat lazy asses…

I know! Jezebel kinda sorta near-misses the good points a lot, but I often suspect they do it on purpose so the comment base can have the glory of pulling all the zingy rabbits out of their hats. This comment section is no exception.

No, the burden of proof in this conversation is not on the dead kid. Stop deflecting, stop weaseling out, stop play-acting like we're in a court, and PROVE your point.

So did Trayvon Martin.

YOU prove how it's NOT about race.

oh jezebel, fuck this noise. that juror's comments? are the footnotes that support the claim "not guilty". and these four? agreed with her in deliberation. caved to her when shit got rough. they don't get to back away now that that juror cut through all the bullshit to the painful, racist truth to their verdict.

My Okcupid "contact me if":

But... there IS a difference in how our culture celebrates "male" and "female" baby batter (in quotes because cissexism). Remember the hullabaloo around Lady Gaga's tampon string poking out during a performance? Compare that to the ubiquity of the money shot in porn. People freaked the FUCK out at the sight of…

Is it the season 2 episode where Charlotte gets crabs, or the episode where Samantha's trainer shaves her shit in the shape if a lightning bolt? Is it the season 3 episode where Carrie unknowingly signs up for a brazilian wax, or the season 6 episode where Samantha shaves off her post-dye job bozo the clown bush???…
