It’s absolutely discrimination. A crime was committed against her and she is being punished for it.
If you have not listened to the CBC’s Uncover podcast that covers NXIVM, do so ASAP.
I feel like I have to tell my excellent Planned Parenthood experience here. I had a UTI due to many things stemming from being an alcoholic and not taking care of myself. I went to the ER and they gave me the wrong meds and I still felt horrible a week later and they were so judgmental. I then went to PP and they gave…
Oh my love. You sound like such a kind, sensitive soul. I think the link I posted above is definitely for you. What you describe is classic narcissistic abuse with triangulation and gaslighting. Did I already mention: Fuck this guy! It bears repeating.
Even if the scale isn’t budging, keep in mind you’re still doing good things for your body, and that’s worth doing just for its own sake.
My question is... when did kids get so soft?
lol. You’re going to have to call up Don Cheadle if you want that mea culpa.
Congratulations on leaving what is easily the most deranged comment I’ve ever received in my year of working at Jezebel lol.
This was my only takeaway from this whole mess. What in the fuck?
I know she opened them because for professional emails, I use a tracking service, which shows how often they were opened; the service showed that Duca viewed every email multiple times from her iPhone, her Gmail account, and another mail client.
That headline brings me joy, because I just heard the developer go FULLY HAM on Kai Ryssdal for calling it a “mall” instead of whatever dumbshit corporate doublespeak thing they named it.
I was too young to follow the scandal at that time, but did people REALLY not find any fault with his credibility in this interview?
I'm listening to a great podcast about this at the moment-Uncover: Escaping NXIVM. It's based around interviews with a woman who spent 12 years as a high level member of both NXIVM and DOS.
I do believe he made the word “harm” do a LOT of work to obscure his misdeeds, but watching the Bashir documentary “Living With Michael Jackson,” what I am struck by is that he stringently claimed that his relationships with children were appropriate, innocent, and non-sexual in THE SAME INTERVIEW where he absolutely…
Can I recommend the podcast ‘Escaping Nexium’? It’s really good.
I think it’s fair to say that everyone in that family is so fucked up they all have some degree of problem with discerning what’s true, what’s real. Backpedaling stories told years ago is not necessarily a function of being paid, but also continuing abuse and manipulation. I’m certain that what we know about the…
We don’t wonder. Bush II is a legacy. Bush I is Eli and Bones. How does anybody think he got to be head of the CIA ...??
BTW, the debate around her age is troubling. I mean, of course it would be worse if she’s underaged, but how much worse? At the end of the day, this was a person in custody. Period. You can’t consent in that coercive situation, even if you’re above the age of consent.
