You kick ass at surviving; you did it phenomenally well when you needed it first, and every moment after.

It’s nourishing food for babies and children that breasts make for free, and there’s not a person in the world I’m going to shame or begrudge for using that resource. Especially when our view of breasts is so pearl-clutching because straight dudes get off on them.

Seriously. Convincing people that the free, healthy food breasts make for small humans is somehow shameful or tainted or damaging to children because it comes from breasts (and oh no, men like to sexualize those!) has got to be one of the most damaging things foods industry marketing has ever done.

This is so terrifying and I’m so glad you’re okay. I only did a bit of internet dating in the pre-Tinder days but oh my god, it is so goddamn scary and I feel like no one ever talks about it. So many men will lie and manipulate so much just to get near you, and the thought of it makes me shudder.

Aaaahhhh that’s soooo weird!! Your story is so utterly terrifying, and it’s so weird to get glimpses of how different men’s worldview is!

DUUUUDE I live in NYC too and this so hits home, stories like yours are why I’m so paranoid about letting people in behind me, even in my building full of families. I always turn around and look them in the eye and then up and down if I think they might be okay but usually it’s looking back out of the corner of my…

SAME. It’s an important message, especially as here in the US maternal mortality rate is the highest in the developed world. 

With you 100%

Thank god, I was beginning to worry NYC might be ruined by all the poor, creative, and working class folks keeping housing prices sustainable and neighborhoods unique and interesting. Such a relief the disgustingly wealthy are here to save us!

Jim Carrey needs to take all the fucking steps back from the legacy of Fred Rogers. He’s done serious harm with his bullshit anti-vaccination propaganda, he doesn’t deserve to even attempt a ghostly reference to Rodgers.

Same, same, same. The GOP doesn’t even care about what birth control does anymore, they just want to control our bodies. Kavanaugh’s had enough court decisions to show that. It’s nauseating to watch this just unfold before our eyes.

Maybe he was just busy writing lots of scrambled nonsense that was only made legible by teams of women working their asses off at 3am?

Is anyone else totally nervous AF about this?? I can’t escape the sinking feeling that Murkowski and Collins aren’t going to do shit to protect reproductive rights from Kavanaugh.

I’m with you. I love so many of these actors—especially Sarah Paulson—but they’re completely nonsensical at this point, and not non-linear in the good, intentional way. It’s a bummer. 

And the police in that one had decided it was an accident and she wasn’t trying to kill him! I wouldn’t want to be in their shoes right now.

JFC that’s horrific!!! I’m sorry that happened in your family. 

I just posted this link too, it’s totally fucking bananas!!!! 

Excuse me but who the hell IS this woman???Like WHAT?!?!

And the part where he came back throwing racial slurs around for the rest of his life that she thought he’d never be capable of: “She later said she was “ashamed” of her son for the “terrible language” he used toward the Vietnamese captors who tortured him. “I never would have believed in this world he would ever use…

What a vile human. I pity her children. It’s clear she doesn’t give two shits about her daughter or women and girls in general and/or never considered her sons may experience sexual violence (which more frequently is perpetrated by men) and/or prioritized her sons’ possibly being accused of sexual violence to the…
