Other commenters speculated that once they found out she was deaf, her “value” dropped and so she was hived off to foster care. Shudder.

I’ve never commented on Kinja nor have i felt compelled to. But I can’t help myself; the current state of America is completely fucked. Period. And no one is listening.

Number of times a former SO beat the shit out of me: no clue. I only remember the "highlights". I even defended my cuts and bruises to my coworkers and friends, saying that my cats had roughed me up.

Sorry. If Anna Wintour shows up at my house, I’m doing the Condé Nasté with her ASAP.
