No, stay. That was pure brilliance!!!

The Colorado “snow” helps too. Haha!!

I can’t, but I can remind her that we can’t vacation in Europe anymore if I have a kid (because I’d need their help supporting it!)

Bestie! I sent you a message on FB! My life has been so dull without you!

Same. My mom begs me to have a kid, and it's like...I can't freaking afford that! Hell, I live at home so that I can save, travel, and pay off student loans. I'm 33. Having kids is a bad idea.

I totally read that wrong and thought it was a pic of a boner UNDER A DOOR! Then I keep reading to find out it was the DOORMAN! Like it was a clue! and I was amazed someone could slide their boner under a door...

Many academics (and not just men) also have a belief in their own intellectual superioity

It sounds like the cover of a bad science fiction novel. “Captain Jace Starbolt thought he was a man’s man. Until his ship crashed on...MANWORLD!”

This is so confusing to me, because whatever it’s about is dumb and yet it’s so much fun to say “Manosphere.”

Next she’s going to tell me that there are women of color who are part of the LGBT community. Kookoo bananas talk, I tells ya!

Wait, are you saying there are people who are both women and of color? And they are in the moving pictures?!?

To me, that’s akin to how we self-judge our bodies based on cultural images of bodies, you know? It’s not really ironic so much as there is So Much Shame around treating mental illness (i mean, my parents and ILs refuse to talk to therapists!), it’s completely internalized.

I will, I will probably be back here moaning about my life every week :D

Glad you’re okay, hope your excellent brain turns out to be okay too!

Oh my goodness, you are so thoughtful and kind and it is so much appreciated! It is very good of you to think of us. Thank you, and giant hugs to you too! I did do one of my responsibilities in that I just got done disinfecting the whole house because I’m trying to do that every weekend until the chemo is done but I…

Ugh me too on the nausea for a month. I’m so glad I stuck it out though. Congrats to you!

I only occasionally get troll comments on jezebel, depending on the topic i’m commenting on. I do not think it’s normal to get trolled that much here, although maybe a little more on articles shared with gawker.

Effexor was middling for me — it helped, for sure, but not anywhere near as much as I needed it to. I’m doing very well on Wellbutrin, though. Beyond battling the depression, it's made such a huge difference in how I feel when I wake up in the morning — even when I don't get a lot of sleep, I'm awake and alert and I…

There does seem to have been a bit of a spate of trolls lately so I hope that this is just a temporary thing and that they’ll get bored and wander off. You’re good people and deserve better <3

It will be hard. But I think it will be worth it. You seem really cool, and you deserve friends who see you as such and treat you accordingly!

So, the past couple of weeks I have been under such emotional and physical strain I have thought I am going to snap but at least it’s the weekend and even though I am not able to stop myself from worrying about my responsibilities, I am trying to not do any of them over the weekend. And my dad had his first round of…
