The day she supposedly took her life was the day she told ME she was being committed for a month under the supervision of her psychiatrist. I was her editor. In August she had told me that she had been placed on a 72 hour hold while they adjusted her meds. At the beginning of September, she was leaving the book world

There are democratic blue dogs who may be willing to do this. Like Rep. Marcy Kaptur who signaled she would support McCarthy or any GOP speaker. Democrats can’t get out of their own way so I expect they will eventually fuck this up. The leadership including Joe Biden have a fantasy of the old GOP that has never been

Every single person that defends Lanez should feel like shit after reading this. Especially celebrities and the “friends” she lost.

Well done. Re-gendering victim shaming always shows how absurd it is.

You’re my favorite person today. I just would like you to know that. Bravo

First, did Stanford ever ask what this football player was doing in public? Why wasn’t he home studying or in class? If he’d been where he was supposed to be, instead of out with his friends, he wouldn’t have gotten coffee spilled on him. Assaults never happen at home or in class, and he should have known that.

Yep. Stanford’s administration could have taken a more measured punishment given the circumstances but instead they took the nuclear option and threatened her entire future. At the very least, the administrator(s) involved in doling out the punishment should be fired.

Let’s concede that the school probably couldn’t do nothing about this, but they sure didn’t need to go straight to threatening dismissal from the soccer team and possible complication of her ability to graduate. To me this has one semester of disciplinary probation written all over it. It would also send a message to

From the same campus that brought you Brock Turner comes this absolute bullshit.

This horrible. I’m sorry for Katie. I’m sorry for Katie’s friend and I’m sorry for Katie’s loved ones. I mean spilled coffee, is a bad? But rape is fine I guess. Women supporting other women is always going to be punished in our society. Now our society has lost a young woman willing to fight back for her teammate and

She was already vulnerable to predators and sex traffickers, that’s how she ended up in this mess in the first place. The system already failed her. I hope she finds peace wherever she goes.

I hope she took all that gofundme money and is off to Zihuatanejo, Shawshank style. 

A message to the public: If you see this fugitive, no you didn’t.

Technically they do their jobs very well. The problem is their job is to protect capital, private property, and only that. Always has been.

In fairness to the KCPD, it appears they were every bit as successful as they wanted to be.

It’s extremely frustrating that serial predators are built up as some sort of unknowable deviant masterminds we can’t possibly crack when the reality is just: police really, really, really, really, really, really, really suck at their jobs. 

I’m not really a believer in the supernatural, but I had a ghost in my old apartment.

Okay, I’ll try to make a brief one that’s not as scary as others, just mildy interesting and mysterious. I’ll also preface this with - I am NOT a great writer.

I live in the house that was my grandparents’, now my mom’s house, and my husband and I take care of her.

this is a story my mom told me and to this day it still freaks her out to talk about it. what makes it creepier is that my mom doesn’t believe in paranormal things related to ghosts or aliens, so you know its definitely not BS. my sibilngs and cousin were also there and they 100% confirm this happened.
