There is a problem in that even if this was a by the book shooting and she was waving a gun around there is not enough trust between the two communities for people to be a peace with it.

To all the people saying what a waste... She clearly thought of herself as a martyr (take a look at her other videos). She also taught her son that every interaction with police will be a life and death situation simply because she felt the need to escalate it to that level each time. She was delusional and this was a…

Khloe in particular came across as the most ignorant asshole. She kept waving at everyone as they drove by, talking over their tour guide, and recording videos of people on her phone without talking to them. Kourtney at least made an effort to speak Spanish, so I give her a teensy tiny pass.

My mom had a smilar feeling when my dad died. She told me (later, as an adult, of course) that she just wanted to stay in bed but she had to get up every morning for my sake.

My annus horribilis was 2011 when my boyfriend, my grandmother, my boyfriend’s mother and the daughter of a close friend all died within six months of each other. The last two were a week apart and I remember trying to do push ups (light work outs were weirdly helpful as a channel for excess energy) and collapsing on…

I remember listening to a comedy album where he thought he'd never get married or have children. The fact he loved hard and lost hard is too much to manage. I feel we are all grieving with him.

Agreed. Britney has such a pure heart. God, I love her and care about her well being more than a complete stranger should.

GM has never had copy editors — writers are responsible for copy editing their own articles. Which is a recipe for disaster no matter how good of an editor you are. You know what you MEANT to say, and your eye skips right over the errors.

Agreed about being honest with kids about life, death, sex, the world, etc.

As a mom to a 3-year-old, I completely agree: motherhood is damn difficult, and also the most basic-ass job on the planet.

This is only tangentially related- but its my experience non-experience with Disney Cruises and how I strongly associate Disney with Death at this point. This is a bit of a long post I’m writing for selfish and cathartic reasons.

Growing up my father always loved Disney- he brought us there several times- and he even…

It’s the same logic of those parents who try to make their kids live in a clean room, essentially, trying to make sure they never get sick. problem is, if you never get sick, you risk getting REALLY sick later in life. Same with death. The longer your kid goes without understanding it, the harder it is to cope with…

I used to work with this little old Russian lady who had an interesting philosophy. To paraphrase, “Life is shit. Everything will probably go horribly wrong tomorrow. Have a good day.”

Every morning I’d ask her how she was, and she’d respond, “Feh! Life is shit. I am miserable. Everything hurts. It’s good to be alive!”

Goddamn, this was a good piece. I found myself actually laughing aloud one minute and then tearing up the next.

I’m just here for the “Oh I don’t even acknowledge that Disney exists and I have never shown my child(ren) any of that “princess” nonsense or whatever it’s even called I don’t know because I don’t acknowledge that Disney exists it’s a force of evil.”

Wendy is a Black opportunist. She will talk about race in any way that she and her corporate sponsors feels will generate attention and money.

Ugh I feel bad for Britney on this one. It reads as funny/shady but like, how many people do you think she’s taken pics with in her life? How many people are like ‘OMG BRITNEY’ and she’s supposed to remember every single one? I mean, lol because Taylor is mega-famous now but I’m willing to give Britney a pass on not…

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA TAYLOR SWIFT IN 2003 AHAHAHAHAHA
