There are a lot of organisations that take care of necessities like food and sanitary items for people in need (thankfully), but not as many that help out with passing the time – which for me at least was why the temptation to turn to alcohol and drugs was all too strong.

Most humans are flawed beings. Most humans do not then encourage vulnerable people to kill themselves.

Ah, are you sitting in the courtroom, following along? Like so many other commenters here, your mind is made up based upon incomplete evidence.

It would make her a fucking asshole who has mental problems as well as being a fucking asshole. Mental disorders may explain but they don’t excuse.

I thought The Revenant was really uninteresting and not worth the hype. But....it’s a really weak year in the Best Actor category, so I don’t see anyone else but DiCaprio taking best actor. Bryan Cranston was OK in Trumbo, but it was a lightweight movie that didn’t make a splash. Damon’s nomination for The Martian is…

I would have been very happy if he’s won for What’s Eating Gilbert Grape, but you’re right about all of the other noms. He’s a good actor, but very rarely inhabits the character in the way some other actors do.

JUST GONNA SIT OVER HERE CRYING GUYS. I’m so sorry for your loss. I’ve owned both cats and dogs and losing them opens up a hole in your heart that can shock you, especially if you aren’t prepared for the pain. You did a great thing by providing him with a home while he was here. You’re good people.

How painful that you couldn’t be there at the end. But your writing is wonderful. Give yourself some downtime; it takes the pain a long time to lose its sharp edge, but it really never goes away.

So it’s all the fault of women?

Also, if it’s safe to have a copy, or you have a place to hide it, I highly recommend this book. It helped me more to see my reality than just about anything else did, at least as I as getting ready to leave:

Narcissists, man. I know someone who was married to a guy for 10 years. They had two children. She finally divorced him after he hit her (not for the first time), knocked her down, and she looked up to see the kids standing a little way away and decided that she couldn’t make them watch this for the rest of their…

I’m not sure where you’re located, but there are resources all over that can help you. http://www.thehotline.org/ is the US hotline for Domestic Violence. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/avital-zeisler… is about safety planning, as is this: http://www.womenslaw.org/laws_state_typ…

As the news outlet notes, on the website he’s posted an exchange between him and his son, in which he tells the now-teenager that he would have “no qualms” about killing the boy’s mother.

Canadian prosecutors discussed charging Fox with criminal harassment but ultimately decided not to, in part, they told the news outlet, because the exes live in different countries and thus Capuano couldn’t reasonably have an “objective fear” for her personal safety.

Never thought I'd be that guy, but I'm hate-following someone just to watch the impending train wreck. (She is waiting for him to get out of jail. She posts daily on how much she can't wait for marriage and/or fucking. She also posts some pretty weird "fuck feminism" memes.) My finger hovers over unfriend, but I have…

The people who brag the most about how #blessed they are are the most insecure in general, not just in relationships, right? It's the whole "lady doth protest too much" thing.

Hey so I'm the girl from the last (long) story above (6+ feet tall, went to his house). I wanted to add a couple of things.

OMG- to all the people saying "Well, all of these women's stories just prove his tactics work!" Let me break this down for you.

I was getting really confused with the invocation of "Tyler Durden" because "No. It's The Paper Street Soap Company."
