My mom was the same way. She always said that if they can build it and tear it down the same day, then I have no business riding it.

For anyone out there who is about to claim this is her fault or make fun of her, etc., I advise you to watch this video from 2007. It explains it better than I ever could. I posted it on Twitter too, because I was getting so mad at people making light of this.

I’m not someone who keeps up with all the gossip, but my understanding was that she was more focused on being a mental health advocate than being in any kind of rat race. She has so many fans who see her as their personal hero, and I know she’s spoken about how she’s struggled with feeling unworthy of all that…

Kinda funny too, as my Dad took me and my friend to that traveling Amusement Event, and yeah, my Mom would not have let us ride rando rides run by weirdos.

Probably better to question why child actors seem to disproportionately have substance abuse issues later in life. 

As someone who spent the better part of the early 90s with a horrendous heroin addiction (lost our family, friends, and spent couple years living on the LA streets until we got our lives together- thanks to the magic of a pregnant street cat who gave us 6 lives to live for), I am sending this young lady all my love…

Don’t feel sorry for the designer. He’s an egotistical ass and yes a degree in the right field would have prevented this.

Also, afaiaa, Bill Gates never put a human into a Microsoft computer and sent them hurtling at high speeds off a ledge. Like if Bill Gates REALLY fucked up, I guess a computer could explode and kill someone. This guy only had to fuck up a little to kill someone.

[Jeff Henry] never got a conventional education beyond high school and never formally studied physics or engineering. And that never worried the people around him. “That would be like someone being concerned that Bill Gates or Mark Zuckerberg doesn’t have a college degree,” his brother told me. “The people that have a…

IN NORMAL TIMES, I’m a pretty big defender of civility and good behavior. THESE ARE NOT NORMAL TIMES. I don’t know that confronting these assholes does any good, but they damn well deserve it and what else are we supposed to do? Just watch them all fiddle while Rome burns?

“In light of the incident, the EPA has requested several main battle tanks in case of further toddler-related incidents.”

I said this in another comment, but I’ll say it here again because I’m gray on Splinter:

He ran like a scared rabbit, because of words. She didn’t swear, she didn’t insult him, she just stated facts. Even when you’re civil to Republicans, they run and scream in terror.

She politely asked him to resign after outlining his many objective misdeeds!  Oh, the humanity!

Holy fuck, I don’t know what restaurant they’re at, but those are definitely taco holders on his plate.

He probably went ballistic on his security detail for not “taking her out”. That baby could have hiding a weapon.
