yes, i absolutely feel like this stem in part from the objectification of women, that women are things to possess. a girl i grew up with was shot in the back by her abusive husband before she turned the gun on himself. he called her parents after he did it. she was apparently getting ready to leave him. their only…

growing up black in the 70s and 80s, i internalized so much self-hatred that decades later, i practically burst into tears at a museum exhibit featuring models of that time period because seeing those photos brought me right back to feeling like an ugly monster, literally. it makes me so sad to know that girls are…

literally choking on my tea.

she is a gorgeous toddler.

i think of the closeted surgeon and father of Jimmy/Steve on Shameless

wait - who are these people?

Saw it in December with great house seats cuz i know someone in the cast. it’s an awesome show but i wouldn’t pay an exorbitant amount for it. i love the arts but ain’t nothing that serious. and even the cast thinks it’s too long.

hate this misogynist Hamburglar-looking dude.

you won’t if I’m your mother. i’ve spent my lifetime raising my younger brother, my husband and you and your siblings and now you want me watch your kids all the time? gtfoh

done. gracias!

i am now desparate to track some of this shit down.

my nana’s name was Eva, so my brother named his daughter Ava in 2002 (he did not foresee its popularity) and six month’s later i gave my daughter the middle name of Eden (Eva, Eve, Garden of...). my daughter goes by her nickname but her name and especially her nickname are mad popular, which i didn’t foresee.

agreed with respect to american privilege.

wow, i’ve seen this woman socially, not on the job and she was very loud and hype (she’s also very tiny). i’ve never been a fan and have never been able to tolerate workout dvds for more than a minute but maybe i’ll try one of her’s now.

i also think the show does a great disservice to folks. like most (all?) reality shows, it’s not real.

he’s awesome live, but i hate American Privilege too. A for effort, I guess. didja see him and bernhoft do “Millions” on the most recent tour? show-stopping
