This is what my uncle is like, he’s a carpenter and very handy, will go around the neighbourhood and help all the neighbours with things they need fix, rebuilt my nanas roof after termites, pretty much for nothing. But he won’t do anything for my aunt, he ripped her bathroom out 16!years ago and it still has big hole…

Dismissed the troll. This (Burner baby burner!) is the same gaslighting loser with a dozen or so burner accounts and I’m not wasting any more time on him/her.

The first time I had a panic attack I almost went to the emergency room because it felt so different from anything I’d ever felt before and I was convinced it was going to kill me.

Oddly enough, my stepmom was the love of my dad’s life and vice versa - and there was no abuse there at all, not even before he quit drinking.

Thanks for the heart. :-) Honestly I’m ok. Dad and I had lots of discussions and happiness in the years before he died. He got sober and made amends with my mom. It’s all good.

I wonder how the victim feels about it though.

Oh, I’m listening—I’m just not caring. You’ve spouted bullshit. When called on said bullshit, you’ve tried to bullshit harder. It didn’t work, and you have, apparently, nothing more to offer. I’m sorry for you that all have to offer is bullshit. Perhaps a night’s rest will encourage you to rethink your poor choices…

You do not know what PTSD is. PTSD results from experiencing a traumatic event that you did not cause. What you are trying to call PTSD is called ‘repercussions.’ If someone literally attacks him, he might then suffer from PTSD from that. But even if that happens as a result of the rape he committed, he would not…

So, to be clear: You start with an appeal authority. Then you move on to a demonstrably dishonest argument where you say “I also didn’t argue that judicial discretion was under fire.” Then you lied about what I said, purposefully strawmanning it. Then you use the tone trolling argument where, rather than addressing…

“He’s not fit for prison” has worked on judges. It’s never worked on victims, or the public, and I don’t think it should work on judges either. “I get upset at dealing with the consequences of the harm I caused, so I shouldn’t have to deal with them “ is, generally and specifically here, a pathetic and disgusting…

No, it’s 100% ridiculous to say “dealing with the consequences of his actions has bothered him, therefore there should be less consequences”. It’s a terrible argument, and is disrespectful of people who really have PTSD—remember that he wasn’t even sentenced yet, so this supposed PTSD was at the mere specter of…

You say that the family’s reactions are perfectly natural given that they’re experiencing extreme cognitive dissonance and are the product of a culture that treats rape as an extraordinary circumstance (magic, as you say). This is certainly true, but in your account of our culture, you seem to be suggesting that men…

I can’t speak for others, but the outrage is not that a father would defend his son, but the way Brock Turner’s father—heck, his mother, the rest of his family, and one of his idiot friends—minimized what he did and boo-hooed about how the conviction had impacted their lives and Brock Turner was so miserable or, in…

Yes, my heart breaks for the PTSD suffered by the rapist who got caught, convicted, and was punished with a slap on the wrist.

Feel free to dismiss the rape apologist if you’d like!

Definitely on team Dean was the Worst. Lindsay deserved better.

Ha. Look I love that show and I love Lorelai and Rory but ok, yes, after a few years had passed and I was rewatching again you can definitely see they’re both kind of trainwrecks. Mostly that applies to Lorelai. She can be self sabotaging, selfish, hard on her parents when they don't always deserve it, and let's not…

Ugh. Dean. The WORST. The worst.

Dean (Jared Padalecki) will be back when Gilmore Girls returns.

Pop Tarts................YUM!
