What do teens do over the summer if they don’t work? This is a real question. When I was young I went to day camps or spent the summer with my grandmom in Atlantic City. I had one summer after grandmom died and when I was really too old for the camp where I did a lot nothing, I think. Then starting at fifteen I…

Off topic but just wanted to say I know how you feel and it sucks. Mine was an abusive mother. People always say to me “but she’s your moooom”, like fuck off.

I stopped communicating 10 years ago. It’s been great. My self esteem is much better. I am much less stressed. Don’t listen to the people that insist that you forgive him just because he is your father. Your sanity comes before everything.

Our fathers sound exactly alike. I finally stopped communicating (That is i finally blocked him on social media so he could stop tacitly taking credit for all my accomplishments when he wasn’t around for my childhood and basically doesn’t speak to me as adult either) with mine this year and I wish I’d done it 10 years…

Yeah, it may also be my PTSD. But having Spicer there and everyone so excited and laughing at him made me have the exact same feeling I had when people would dismiss how horrible my abusive father was to me and my family. People would always find ways to minimize what he did and act as if he was just a good guy who…

The Nazi’s were just doing their job as well, Spicey. Even if I wasn’t a child of a Holocaust survivor, I’d find this nonsensical line of reasoning a goddamn disgrace.

I find the royal weddings to be so unromantic. They’re so stiff

Right? Diana was a Lady and came from a wealthy family independently of Charles. She certainly didn’t need him in that area. She was far from being a commoner, but, you know, people’s princess!

It’s hilarious that so many people thought this was a fairytale wedding and marriage at the time. I’m rolling my eyes at how confident the commentators are here.

I’m,

Of course it’s on purpose. She and her people have been strategising for the last...IDK...one to two years. It’s what she does and I don’t mind.

I really hope she beefs with Beyoncé at some point so Twitter is nothing but venomous bees and snakes. Like Australia.

Watching the response has been SO interesting to me tbh, because where I interpreted it as very tongue-in-cheek, and goofy on purpose, there are a lot of people on twitter wringing their hands over the State of Music Today. Like, guys, Taylor is a smart lady and has very smart people working with her. She’s fucking…

Sports can be great for kids if the focus is on having fun, getting some exercise, developing strategy, and making friends that enjoy the same activities as you. I can write paragraphs on the great things sports have brought into my life.

Whoa whoa whoa, wait a second - people were actually defending this? I mean, aside from being unfathomably cruel, this is a plainly stupid way to go about getting people to splits. What good is your cheer team if they’re injured so badly they can’t move their legs?

This is sports culture in America. Sports teams get amazing funding as teachers are struggling to keep pencils in their classrooms, many of our colleges rank sports as more important than classes, sports are being pushed onto kids younger and younger, and they’re only getting more extreme. And I don’t mean like fun,…

He didn’t just dodge the draft, he did it by invoking a bone spur as an excuse. Decades later, when asked which foot the bone spur was on, he couldn’t rightly recollect. A bone spur is a very painful injury and not a thing easily forgotten. He’s a total fraud. Also, he even invoked his time at military school as a…

Especially since SecDef Mattis And Chairman Joint Chiefs Dunford did NOT know this was coming. I wouldn’t be surprised if either resign.

I remember when DADT got repealed, and people out in the real world freaked the fuck out. In the military, we all just... continued going to work and getting things done, and our gay and lesbian brothers and sisters were happier, more productive Soldiers because they didn’t have to live a lie. I’ve yet to see a…

I don’t have a lot of friends in the military (thanks for your service, by the way!) but most of them have had the same answer about, well, anything related to GLBTQ or women in the service: “are they a good, capable soldier? Then I don’t care.”
