It's not the practice of caution or reminders to exercise caution that make it victim blaming, it's the "you should" and "for the love of God" statements that make it victim blaming.

6 comments down., there it is. I was curious how many I'd read before I came to one blaming the mother.

It's incredibly sad that they basically turned to grifting to pay for these bills. However I'm glad they were found out because their actions easily could have gotten someone who likely doesn't have a wealth of career options fired, and this whole thing sheds light on how godawful our health care system is (not that…

The idea that the family will have to go bankrupt to cover only a 10th of what she needs medically is just so overwhelmingly sad. Those injuries will need dozens of surgeries over several years, aftercare and medicine to prevent infection, physical therapy, therapy for emotional and psychological trauma...

If this is a huge hoax/scam, then the family isn't going to find a lot of sympathy for being the target of this kind of backlash. However, if they did this because they legitimately couldn't fund their daughter's medical care, that's depressing on a whole other level

I am a G cup.... you have to get the Panache Maximum Control sports bra...no bounce. :)

Thank you for using the affirmative phrase "the tits." I really feel like that needs reclaimed, so that anyone who wants to praise something by calling it "the tits" need not worry if he/she is saying something sexist. Because frankly, its only three syllables and its awesome.

Here is my sports bra PSA: I am a runner with natural Ds and I'm kind of an old lady (43). I recently discovered the Moving Comfort Juno and I LOVE it. My boyfriend came into the room smiling when I was on the treadmill and his face fell immediately and he said "they aren't moving AT ALL!". Nope, no they aren't. Bless…

How delightfully patronizing of you.

i stopped reading immediately at the first cafe you described- lady dina's cat emporium, because it's in shoreditch, and I'M GOING TO STAY WITH A FRIEND WHO LIVES IN SHOREDITCH IN AUGUST for the weekend! REJOICE! REJOICE!

On our honeymoon in Italy, we went to two outdoor cafés that had friendly cats. It was so sweet, but it wasn't contrived. It just seemed like hey - cool cafe cat. Honestly, they should have adoption centers spring up in the spring (like those Halloween stores in October) and have kitten cafés. Already have the…

I totally used to play this game with my cat Peek A Boo! He'd be right on the other side of the wall, just shaking with excitement and I'd jump around the corner - he'd freak and jump five feet in the air!

I can relate. I myself am a squirrelist and rabbitographer, and I have several actual restraining orders against neighborhood pets.

Um, my cat lives in my house?

WHY did you say cat café and not catfé???

I am sorry your Friday is going bad and you are a cranky mccrankypants!!!

Dogs that show "repeated unprovoked aggressive action" need to be put down. Sorry. Aggressive dogs like that cannot be ethically adopted out-they can be dangerous to everyone around them. I cannot think of a single humane society or shelter that would take a dog with that sort of behavioral history.

I will tolerate many things in the name of irking you.

Yes, by MAILING it.
