As the ex-wife and daughter of a narcissist, this, more than anything, tells me she is in NPD hell. I haven’t seen this opinion anywhere, so I’m probably alone with this idea, but I dropped my jaw when I found out that was her platform. It resonates so strongly with what I was and what I did during the marriage.

Going to have to disagree. I think there’s usually a dominant personality in these matches that is the real catalyst for the crimes, but it still takes a special kind of personality to go along with it. Most of us would never be accomplices for this kind of shit.

I’m finding this .gif extremely perfect right now. This sickening story makes me want to grab my precious adopted daughter by the scruff of her sweet litttle neck and hide her away from this wretched, fucked-up world. When I think about how wanted my kiddo was, I can’t fathom this. I’d rather have my skin peeled from…

The thing that infuriates me the most - beyond this child’s rape, torture and murder - is the piss poor job the local police did in investigating her disappearance.

A week after starting my first antidepressant almost 20 years ago I realized that most people don’t struggle all the time. They just feel like I did on the med: normal. The meds don’t change me, they just keep me from bottoming out, a supportive floor if you will. I find antidepressants to be a miracle of modern…

Can I hear some of you tell me that you were glad to make the decision to start an antidepressant?

I kinda feel like...if the robot doesn’t really “do” anything, how can it...consent? We either acknowledge that this woman is basically masturbating with a large sex toy, or we give agency to InMoovator, in which case surely he should have to meet the criteria of being able to consent just like anyone else, right?

“He was just using space travel as a metaphor for beating his wife.”

I feel like there are a lot of ways to be a feminist, but as a general rule, if your way involves “mean-spirited discussion of another woman’s aging face and body” then you’re probably doing it wrong

Wish we could uninvent these things. The ones I’ve tried only have a scent if they’re unlit. They give lots of people headaches and nausea (me), and you can hardly tell your host to put one out and clear the air.

She should document the fact that he told her to delete the emails, and keep copies of them anyway. By the way, there are a lot of ways to get deleted emails back.

*Raises hand* Hey! I know this one... I just finished a mandatory sexual harrassment training class for my new job.

Look, you’re right, but I think you’re whole “try me” schtick is misplaced here. The point of this isn’t about Taiwan, really. It’s about a president who has no fucking idea what he’s doing wading into extremely tricky international waters. And if you’re going to pretend that it’s in the best interest of ANYBODY - us,…

are you kidding?! This is Putin’s DREAM DATE PRESIDENT. Trump is dumb as hair, impulsive as hell, and he is phenomenally easy to manipulate! He has no moral compass whatsoever and he has no idea what he’s doing or how things work or what he’s even in charge of now... and he won’t ask, or listen to anyone who knows…

I don’t think anyone is suggesting he made the decision. he was just too stupid to know that foreign leaders ask new presidents all sorts of stuff to feel out how things will be. For example when he spoke to the Pakistani prime minister the Pakistani government invited him to visit and he said that sounded great. Cue…

Are white men ready to admit yet that devotion to this generation of auteur directors has been almost exclusively them jerking off a bunch of admitted sociopaths?

So. Bertolucci is a disgusting piece of shit, but in this scenario Brando is a far more disgusting and shittier piece of shit. How the hell could he have been complicit in this? This wouldn’t have happened if HE hadn’t done it. This makes me so fucking ill.

It’s strange to me that this is news now. I mean I’m glad it’s being talked about. But she said this FOREVER. Now people believe it because they heard men verify it?

These are kids; telling a trusted adult is not a “wasted step”, and it also allows her some accommodation from the school, so she doesn’t have to ride the same bus with him or whatnot. Give the girl a break- she did nothing wrong. No one can ever be a victim perfectly enough to meet everyone’s standards.

On the one hand, I do feel a smidge of pity for some of these people. On the other, fuck them. I’m a poor white person who needs change too, but I’m also neither a bigot nor a fucking idiot so I’m really over the “poor white people just wanted change!” narrative. It feels patronizing and infantalizing. The only people…
