Rape apologists say that victims should go to the police immediately. Well here is a victim who did just that, and it was a terrible process for her. Look at all that had to happen to get this vile POS finally charged

From the linked story. Fuck this guy, pray all you fucking want, but your son violently raped at least 3 women, the article implies there are more and that he’s been doing it since High School. You raised a rapist so fuck your prayers. And fuck this guy, he’s “truly remorseful” because he got caught no other reason.

But the logic here is sound!

“What he did, obviously from what you explained, is terrible,” the fraternity member told her, “but I do want you to think about what the consequences [are] with him and his future. …”

Since cops tend to have more domestic abusers among their ranks than the general population, it’s not that far fetched to assume that quite a portion of them are rapists themselves.

I have a few. Although people say he is sounding shittier and shittier as he gets older, I think his aging voice sounds nice - specifically on Time Out of Mind. The Basement Tapes are also great, and of course Blood on the Tracks.

The Basement Tapes are really good. I’m kicking myself because I came across a copy on vinyl recently and my husband and i already had a huge selection so we were trying to decide if we NEEDED to get it. The answer was “duh, yes” but we didn’t :(

He was cleared of all charges.

It’s wonderful that you have that luxury. For some of us, the choice to support Drumpf is a direct indication of the lack of respect (and sometimes contempt) an individual has for me as a Black woman — and those people must be purged from my life, just like other toxic people.

You need to take your ass to an experienced medium and get some answers.

Uhhhhh there’s nothing okay about telling someone about your violent fetish after you’ve isolated them in your home. If he was really in touch with his kink in a healthy way, he would have known that.

It’s nonstandard, but if it’s used consistently in the speaker’s dialect it’s not wrong persay. And yes you missed the point.

I may be missing the point of this story.

This isn’t my story, personally, but it’s one that has kicked around my family for so long that it definitely feels like it’s mine. It’s been told and re-told, but I do think that the central details are very solid.

Ouija boards are such bad news. My brother and my cousin picked one up off the side of a country road where they said it looked like it had been flung from someone’s car. His house was so haunted after that that more often than not I’d wake up and he’d be sleeping on my parents’ couch. He moved out of the house but it…

SO good!!!! you are a great story teller!!!!

I wish the Jezebel article didn’t make it seem like this fight is over. (I know I said this below, but I think it bears repeating) The pipeline construction is still going on. There are daily protests at the construction sites, in North Dakota, Iowa, and maybe other locations. Dozens (if not hundreds) of people, in…

The fact that the protesters, even immediately after getting attacked by dogs, could place the blame where it belongs (on the security guard, not the animal) is just so heartwarming and also heartbreaking at the same time.

She’s my hero! Let’s be clear; this protest would not be receiving the attention it rightly deserves without her team’s help. This is the fossil fuel industry coming up against the rights of indigenous people, and the state is hardly ever challenged to support the people over the corporations.

My first real exposure to Cross was in college, when a friend had on his album where he talked about 9/11. The part that stuck with me was when he said, “I don’t think the terrorists hate us because of our freedom, I think they hate us because of X, Y, and Z reasons. You wanna know why I think that? Because that’s…
