this is so perfect and creepy and I can’t stop watching.

Urgh my asshole ex did the same. While him and I were dating, he was dating another girl. Both of these ended (I’m not sure if she knew about me but I knew about her and that’s why it ended with me and him— I was abroad and a friend told me they were living together. No wonder he was avoiding questions about his…

Exactly!!! Thank you!

I think it would be a bigger deal if someone posted your home address online, said they were nearby and threatened to brutally expose you to AIDS through rape and torture. Just a thought.

According to Aussie law, you have to be separated for 12 months (no reconciliation more than 3 months) to get a divorce so even if they shack up, it will be considered a “reconciliation” and therefore start their divorce proceedings anew. Isnt it awesome!!

Mark! Mark! Mark! You forgot the greatest part! The fatal flaw in their plan! The Achilles heel of this whole operation. They say they will continue to live together and live just like a married couple. Well, no court in Australia will grant the divorce. By Australian law, a couple need to be separated (living apart,…

The great (and hilarious) thing about all this is that, under Australian law, a couple needs to be legally separated (living apart, separate finances etc) for 12 months before they can get a divorce. Their plan is fundamentally flawed! They won't get granted a divorce! Mwahahahahah

Also, the fact that the Spanish instituted a highly racialized social structure in their empire is one of the major causes of the problems. When you have a caste system in place for 300-some years, it’s just near-impossible to shake it off and start anew. Just like there is still racism in the U.S., the same goes for…

You understand me!!

Extra hugs for you!!!

I know many of those... My father is kind of like that. The amount of times I had to leave the dinner table and not risk breaking up the family.... I feel you!

I want to give you all the high fives (and hugs, if you’re cool with that) I study colonial history and a lot of people are like “yeah, but that doesn’t have any relevance today” and I want to break things and yell “there’s so much relevance you fool”, but I usually just purse my lips and sip my wine and ignore the…

That’s what I would think. I read a story recently of how an Australian overstayed her visa by a couple of hours by accident and was put in detention for 3 weeks.
ETA: The article just made it seem like she’ll pop over to JFK and they’ll put her on the next AirFrance flight to Paris thanks to the US Govt. I’m not sure…

I guess if she doesn’t GAF about it, she’ll just not pay and never come back to the US. I’m not sure how it works at all (I’m not particularly sure how people coming with absolutely nothing from Central America and other troubled zones are going to pay for their own deportations). But from the tone of the article,…

I think what bothers me about this story is her immigration status. I know a lot of people from unstable countries overstay their visas or enter the country illegally and that I understand. But some rich French woman doing because what the heck, she feels like it really irks me. And then just getting deported for a…

I make a point to never toss food (unless it’s off) mainly because 1) I live on a grad student budget 2) I hate wasting food. Ultimately, IF I have to throw something good away, I just take it with me in the subway where there is always someone who needs it. Alternatively, what people do in Berlin is place the food…

I study art history, so it's free conference food PLUS free wine on opening night at the Chelsea galleries. 😉 you gotta do what you gotta do!

Yaaaayyy! Besties!!! :D

Can we be best friends? You are the absolute best.

DO IT! DO IT, PLEASE. And then write about it to Jez. And make a video. Make a Netflix Movie about it. OMG PLEASE. I will bring you freshly baked cookies if you do it! (if you don’t live too far away)
