Texas is ROUGH. You need a getaway to CA, you let me know. You’v earned it just by existing there.

Ohio was a wonderful place to grow up. I got to go to a small, good public school, I spent every summer running around a park up the street from my house with no parental supervision (my mom would yell off our back deck in the general direction if the park to get me home for dinner), and I was still exposed to people…

As someone who grew up in Ohio, I’m so. fucking. over. the continued chipping away of abortion rights in my state. Ohio is not progressive in a lot if ways, but it has never felt as generally backwards as the continued hemming in of abortion rights makes it feel. I really love my state, but I’m going to have to start…

This is one of those comments where I started laughing, began to realize how very true it is, and moved right along to tears.

I’m so sorry that happened to you. I will say that while I wasn’t assaulted (and once again, that is so horrible, and I am so sorry that you went through that), my ex’s behavior wasn’t egalitarian/feminist at home. Not at all. He spoke often of feminist ideals, but did not live them. It’s unfortunate to confirm that…

I am woefully out of touch, so I was only aware of the polaroid on the album cover. Nix that idea, then, Beyoncé would never risk being accused of copying t-swift (from what I understand, she will risk it with other people , tho!).

She should release a more moderately priced box set with 12 polaroids of varying quality and a sparknotes-esque paperback   interpretation of Lemonade. Throw the non-rich folks a bone.

When my ex (who def. identified as a feminist) decided to leave me for a mutual friend, one of his guy friends met up with him at a bar for a drink. After the ex explained everything he’d done, the affairs, etc., the friend was like ‘that’s not very feminist of you, dude.’ As petty as it is, I liked hearing about it.

Oh no- now that’s in my brain! Forever! Gah.

Not shocking. Nothing-no assinine policy moves, no trampling on presidential traditions, no 2nd grade spelling mistakes-this idiot does is shocking anymore. He’d have to get naked (*shudder*) and scrub his balls in the reflecting pool at the National Mall to surprise me at this point.

You get the Nice Job Adulting award for today, because you’re very in touch with and objective about your own feelings, and you’re handling them.

It’s so hard to be in that position. I’m sure you’re exhausted, frustrated and a little bewildered about how things got like this (you think you’re making a life with a partner, not someone you’ll have to mother). You aren’t being selfish at all- I get where that comes from, but trust me, you aren’t the one that…

Ramona was such a bag of awful this season. She wa so wacky at points that I wondered if she was on something...

That’s the thing about LeAnne- I’d love to hang out with her because you just know it would be nuts, but only in public and with a can of mace in my bag.

James is so cute and fluffy! It looks like he’s trying to swat the phone/camera out of your hand (I’m assuming James is, like Finn, sometimes a bit mischievous).

You’ve still got your sense of humor- and that speaks entirely positively about what kind of person you are.

I am qualified to talk about RHOD. The bust up of their friendship is sad- I can’t tell whether Brandi is overreacting or if what Stephanie did is really that awful (seemed sort of mild, but definitely uncool, to me). And I’m not sure I believe LeAnne’s anger management counseling is going to be able to alter her…

You probably weren’t picking up signals incorrectly- I think sometimes people enjoy the flirty-ness, so they put off telling the person they are flirting with that they are attached so they can enjoy the flirting as long as possible.

Just wanted to throw in- I’m sorry you’re dealing with this. Being pregnant can be hard and painful, and you definitely deserve help. Also, people who complain but won’t get help are the most frustrating thing I’ve encountered as an adult. Hang in there (or peace out if you need to- it would be understandable).
