Throughout history more than 10% of women/female people - have not married, had children or bought into this societal bullsh*t. Imagine how many wouldn’t have if it weren’t shoved down our throats?

Can we please finally dispense with the myth that all women have a maternal instinct and selflessly put their children before them themselves? It may seem laudable but it’s actually pretty sexist. (Not to mention contradicted by reality.)

If I were on a jury for the person that murders him, I’d really have a difficult time convicting them. Just in case anyone who is in prison with him reads the internet. Christ, I need to find something to cuddle for a while, I’m sick of the awful shit I’ve read today.

Just look at his response to being sentenced - “Oh no, I’m losing years off my life!” Guy probably has zero empathy for anyone else.

ugh, that poor girl. jesus. i hope she has access to serious therapy. what a fucking psychopath.

Some days I’m deeply conflicted about how I feel about capital punishment. Other days not so much.

Teaching her anything about the dangers of the internet was never the intent.

I was like, “Please, please please, be a well-intentioned but ill-advised attempt to teach a valuable lesson about internet safety and privacy . . . Oh Lord, have mercy.”

Having suffered years of sexual abuse from my own father and being too afraid to tell anyone, the fact that this young woman had the strength to tell a trusted adult speaks VOLUMES about her. I wish I could hug her and tell her how brave she is.

If I were this girl’s mother I would be seriously tempted to give up years of my life in prison just to brutally murder this man.

My son and I call Gypsy’s back end her “Furry jodhpur butt".

A rare moment of affection around here. (They are both less chunky now. Restrictive diets work!)

I went to work overseas and had to pass on my kitty to my mother to take care of. She is so whiny. While she never bothered me, she wakes up my mom every morning by gently biting her head. Kitty wants to eat!

Haha! That reminds me of this little guy I found under the house.

I love their fluffy little faces!
