Remember when Girl Scouts could camp on the White House lawn without fear of sexual predation? *sigh*

That is until Trump defunds Federal programs to help homeless people and the Red States follow on a more local level.

THIS is my America.

This week marks five years since my BFF died of ovarian cancer. Shit like this gives me rage.

Wow. I am really sorry that happened to you and I hope that person has been related to former friend status.

“But now, they’ve both stated that they will be at the reunion show, and Jackson has also said he will attend the Men Tell All taping for this season of The Bachelorette.”

I mentioned to the person below that I think some people are predators like this. They become your friend, then wait for a crisis to pounce on. I have an otherwise cool, loyal friend who was the most awesome ally of mine for years. When I first got sick confided to her that I had Lyme disease, she said “I know 2 women…

I’ve had multiple chronic illnesses and I’ve had to set aside time to think of satisfying responses to all the obnoxious comments I’ve gotten. Mostly from friends and family. Well, former friends and family. 😉 WTF is wrong with some people.

Something about A-Rod gives me mad “RUN LADY, DO NOT TRUST ME” vibes. Damn J-Lo, back at it again with the terrible taste in men.

Holy crap this makes me so angry! What a truly awful human being. She is very fortunate that cancer isn’t caused by “what (we) do to bring this into (our) lives”. She’d be screwed.

Do you live in California, by the way? That kind of blame-the-victim thinking seems particularly prevalent out there.

When my mother was diagnosed, they decided not to tell me or my brother. “We didn’t want to worry you.” FFS. They were both terrible dissimulators and I could tell something was going on. Middle-of-the-day phone calls about nothing in particular, poor little quavery voices. “What’s going on?” “Oh, er, nothing.” Gimme…

ARGH! That is terrible! My parents were super into The Secret for a while and I told them that one of the things I hated about it was that it was so victim-blamey. They didn’t agree, of course, but it really made me angry. I’m sorry that happened to you. How awful.

I hope she’s an ex-friend! That’s just an evil thing to say to a sick person.

What a lovely post. So nice to see respectful people for a change and recognition given to those who are making this world a nicer place.

That is insane. I am so sorry. I am happy you are still in this world and doing well.

remember when America had classy leaders? oy vey.

I told her I chose very unsupportive friends.

People say the most awful things to people with cancer. Well, they say the most awful things all the time to everyone, but you really notice it when you’re covered in scabs from chemo injections. A friend of mine looked me deeply in the eyes and asked, “What have you done to bring this into your life?” I told her I…

It’s only women though that get treated like this. Men are thought of warriors and so brave of them to talk about it. So tired of the patriarchal society.
