In the meantime, the woman—thus far unnamed—was pressured to sign papers and told that her visa had been canceled. When she refused to sign, asking to wait until her husband arrived, immigration officers threatened that she would not be permitted to return to the United States. She was then told to sign her…

I shouldn’t be surprised. There’s a scene in Hotel Rwanda where some dude says something to the effect that the enemy (whichever it was— Tutsi?) are “cockroaches.” They don’t view them as human. Everything in the campaign to inspire them is geared toward dehumanizing them. It’s that moment when you see a FB comment by…

Didn’t the cops buy Dylann Roof Burger King after he murdered a bunch of innocent people?

Omg that woman was a freaking rock. Brava, and I’m so sorry on behalf of our beyond fucked country.

Whatever works for you. One day a time works for a lot of people. What works for me is thinking of my loved ones crying when we part. Knowing it makes them sad when I leave, I just can’t make them cry by leaving forever by my own hand. If something else happens to me, they’ll miss me, but suicide could warp them.

Also grey. I don’t know what’s going on in your life, or how bad things are. But, The Orange One can be stopped. It’ll take everyone to stand up, and we need you to help hold the rest of us up.

Calm down there, Satan.

What..........can I..........do...........for you.........today?

Poor little guy. I bet he was exhausted.

you’ve definitely struck a nerve for all us non-Hallmark daughters and sons- so thank you. As a survivor of a toxic mother I want to offer a way for people like me to take mother’s day and make it a day for us too- like Galentines- I go and visit a lovely lady at a care home who has early stage Alzheimer’s- it’s a…

I agree with Natasha’s comment. Also, I am so sorry to hear about the death of your daughter :(

Actually the opposite! It means that they felt secure enough to explore the world. So good job :)

I was adopted as a baby, and emancipated at 14 from my second family for these reasons. I find this time of year especially hard and it’s always good to know I am not alone in this.

My mom tried to run me over with her car at Christmas and I have only spoken to her once since then. And somehow I feel like the piece of shit in this whole situation.
