This is a common hair pattern in the piglets of wild hogs. Since this is Texas, it’s very possible that it has some wildness going on there, and certainly isn’t going to stay any sort of a manageable size.

The only thing worse than a Katy Perry pop song is a Katy Perry ballad.

She is trying to stay relevant by going the obscure Lady Gaga route, but that shtick has already been done so now she looks cringy and trying too hard to be edgy. Same with her Robyn haircut.

I think it’s a really slippery slope when you start holding people (especially young people) accountable for “making” someone kill themselves. I think this whole trial is a sham, and I don’t see how she’ll be found guilty or legally liable. What she did was obviously fucked up, but she didn’t force the guy to kill…

But being unaware of the law doesn’t free you of the consequences of breaking it. I didn’t realize you had to drive for 100 yards in a lane before changing to another lane, but the ticket I paid and the point on my car insurance are the consequences for breaking that law.

I think they’re both kind of awful and wrong, but it stands out to me that Ariel *appears* to have grown up into the type of person she says her mother was trying to turn her into, which is why she wanted to get away from her.

I would say that even at 19 a parent has very right to step in and give advice when their kid is going off track. BUT not to the media.

She’s likely “lost” because she had an abusive, manipulative mother who never treated her as anything other than an asset.

What? Why would you suggest hey here’s another child to be sad about? Jesus. When did this place turn into the the children version of the Sarah McLaughlin “hey I’m here to ruin your day” psa?

Evening everyone, Mortem is still playing with his bucket and spade, so it’s time for the UK roundup!

Well, if you think he’s bad, you might want to check hockeygirlisanastywoman’s posts. She calls HER 14 yr old “Big Foot,” humiliates her (posting her photo here), taunts her and is absent - physically and emotionally. She also get’s plenty of support for it.

This is how he responded to to hey buddy, something’s up.

You just compared this parent’s child to your dog. The rest of your analogy isn’t going to work.

I still can’t get past the fact that the commenter compared a 13 year old girl to her own dog. That’s not how it works, Annie Ann:/

That’s my read on this as well. At first, I thought it was just normal kid stuff. My kids are nude all the time but they are 3 and 5. A 13 year old shouldn’t be whispering that she isn’t wearing underwear or be so insistent to be naked around others. It would send up a HUGE red flag for me.

Was this when she was WAY younger, or do you routinely keep a hold of your 13-year-old’s hand when you are going out. Which, frankly, is bizarre.

HOLY SHIT what makes you think it’s okay to even threaten your child with a belt? Ever thought that might be why she’s in therapy? Jesus Christ, dude.

Studies consistently show that glamorising — or really just teaching people to love their bodies and themselves as they are — leads to better health outcomes for those individuals (source). And, likewise, negative body image (regardless of size or health) leads to greater incidence of depression, anxiety and suicide (s…

i know this is insane, since body glide is my ride or die...

I have short, thick legs that exercise and lipo haven’t cured. If anything, working out has only made my calves bigger. I’m all about this song. Leg acceptance is hard when all you see are thin, long legs in the media.
