I’ve taken enough LSD to make an elephant fly, and I’ve never experienced or even heard of the drug causing violence.
I don’t buy it. Unless LSD has changed tremendously in the last 20 years, violence and acid don’t really go together. I was always too busy having really intense conversations and laughing. Paranoia didn’t factor in as it might with MJ.
Same... while I have sympathy for what he’s going though, I was real interested to read the comments on this piece. Living the life of a starving artist is an okay choice to make if it’s just affecting you, but in this case? And affecting your kids for so long?? At what point are you damaging your kids to fulfill a…
At his age, I doubt entry into a new career is possible, especially when educational costs would likely be needed to get new skills. Sometimes you just get to a point where a low-paid career is your only real option for life in terms of what you can do well, at least that’s been my experience in my teaching and my…
Judging is unattractive. Good for Ashley.
“He sent the message at 6:25 p.m., then told his mother he was leaving the house to visit a friend and not to expect him home for dinner. He made a short drive to a remote corner of the Fairhaven Kmart parking lot. At 6:28 p.m., he called Carter and talked to her for 43 minutes. At 7:12, she called him. The call…
the cost of living has risen since then, and it’s safe to conclude that salaries have risen along with it.
Same! I was one of those “Well, only in rape or incest or life of the mother...” assholes when I was young. It was once I had my daughter that I re-evaluated my stance. I would never want her to think she is obligated to have a child if she doesn’t want to. Some people treat it as if it’s some sort of punishment for…
A bit of ass, yes. It was definitely showing its age.
Patsy is my spirit animal. I cannot wait to see this movie
Things we must accept but that seem temporally strange anyhow:

That’s not exactly the attackiest attack I’ve ever heard.
You obviously need to rebuke Satan.
Why do teenagers do this? I did it and I still don’t understand. There has to be an element of rebellion against authority to it. Adults tell you you need a jacket and you’re like “fuck you squares, it’s my life!”
But I feel like its especially in cold places where 98% of activities happen inside that people don’t dress for the weather. I remember this in Colorado all the time - its fucking snowing outside and girls dressing to impress and random teens (boys and girls alike) are in shorts and sweatshirts and sneakers. Grownups…
Absolutely true. My parents paid for my college (they did have to take out loans of course, but I wasn’t on the hook for them), and because I lived near the NY area, I was able to do an unpaid internship in the City while living at home and commuting in. I am eternally grateful for their support, but also very, very…
It’s true, I’ll freely admit that. I coasted through two years of art school on my parent’s dime. I bought a house at 22, and part of my closing costs were paid for by my parents. I quit a horrible fucking job at 26 and was able to cash out a CD that had been taken out for me by my grandmother to get through the…
People constantly (and I can’t emphasize this enough) mistake technical expertise/skill with skillful or interesting art. Saying that anyone could make the pictures she made is missing her point, which I think is partly that a lot of people (particularly women) do make pictures of themselves.
