My dad is fat-phobic and I can say that his treatment of me as a young person significantly destroyed my self-esteem and lead to years of sorrow and mental agony. I will never forgive him for the way he treated me and he is 95 years old. If I were this women - I would divorce her husband because his hatred of fat…

He just sounds so mean. Like really? You wouldn’t leave your kid in her care, just because she’s fat?? I fucking hate people like this. They can’t see beyond people’s weight.

My father is openly fat-phobic. All three of his daughters either have or had disordered eating or a full blown eating disorder. His fat-phobia wasn’t the only reason, but it did make clear the one thing I should learn to ‘control’ in order to have any worth.

Yes. Yes, yes, and yes some more. And that she KNOWS this is why he has an issue with her sister means it’s been discussed — a LOT. So I wonder how her husband treats her, and how that affects the way she sees her own body. What she’s clearly saying is that her husband wouldn’t love her if she gained weight. I wonder…

I feel the same way about police brutality. I’d always heard about it in an abstract way and it happened so long ago.

Social media can be a nightmare for any number of reasons, but I don’t think that the abusers of yesteryear are prepared to withstand the counterattack that is direct testimonials on Twitter, Tiktok, Instagram, etc. Places like this that can get away with casual cruelty for decades are imploding and I’m super into it.

I’m not one of those tough guys that refuses to cry. I have a tough time with grief. Both my own and seeing it in others. So it was tough watching that video of Taylor accepting the award on her husband’s behalf. Glad I did though.

Wrong.

Phoebe Waller-Bridge is one of those people where I’m automatically on board with anything she has a hand in.

Be still my bi heart

Ok gentrifier.

Caitlin Reilly’s WASP mom is funny, but it sounds more like “Connecticut mom most likely to have a Nancy Meyer Movie Kitchen”. If you have ever taught elementary school on the west side of prospect park (which I did for 3 years, but do not anymore) you would know how dead on Sydney’s impersonation is.

This is a woman who has a grand moment of inspiration and then follows through with it.

I dunno, being a verbally abusive asshole is pretty gross, imo, as are dudes who marry chicks young enough to be their daughters. Neoliberalness aside, I feel like the worst sin of 30 Rock (which I generally enjoy) is rehabilitating Alec Baldwin.

I felt uncomfortable around them, and instead of making them uncomfortable with my discomfort, I chose to remain in my discomfort.

This.

I’d say that situation is when it’s directed at an evil, racist, bigotted, self-serving rapist and thief, who has negatively effected (talk about an understatement!) a great number of people around the world.
And brags about it.
I realize my opinion is not popular here, and if it was anyone else I would be outraged,…

Bless you Smokey. 

Have these people been to a beach? Or a women’s track meet? The fake outrage is strong in the GOP.

For Thanksgiving this year my husband and I convinced his whole family to stay the fuck within our respective households. Husband yelled at the lab top while we ate dinner because that’s how he talks on the phone and to family members on Zoom, apparently. The whole day was punctuated with tech issues and it basically…
