Somehow, the judge also suggested that Kesha should have been aware that working with Dr. Luke would result in the kind of abuse she’s alleging. “Finally, wiht respect to the Prescription Agreement, signed in November 2008, Gottwald’s allegedly abusive behavior was forseeable,” the judge wrote.

The turning point in my marriage was about a year after our first was born, and I burst into tears and told him that being married to him was like having a 2nd son, a teenage one, and not at all like being married to an adult who helped out around the house because it was his duty to the household, not because I told…
“I have no idea why but that’s why stuff doesn’t bother them that should.”
Man, do I sympathize. My spouse abdicated housework for roughly a year, and at the time our relationship was also slowly worsening as he started amping up behaviors that eventually became emotional abuse.
Yeah, that is a tough one. I asked my Ex to make dinner one night a few years ago. He grumbled then made chicken breasts cooked in butter and brown sugar. That’s all. I didn’t know if I should bitch about a horrible meal or give him positive reinforcement for doing something at all. It felt passive aggressive and like…
My husband and I are going through this cycle. Probably going to divorce over it too. First it was the fact that he didn’t do as much around the house as I did. Then he slowed down and eventually stopped doing the things he used to do. Then he started fucking sabotaging things. And every time he broke something and…
I don’t criticize if the main issue is that I would do it differently. It’s fine to do things differently as long as they get done
It can be hard to put your foot down, because no one wants to have to nag.
This!! You can tell a lot about a person when you’re dating- how does he keep his home?? Does he pay his bills on time? Is he responsible or does he live like a child? That’s stuff you need to suss out before kids. My husband was very tidy when I met him- he didn’t neglect his laundry. He ate three meals a day. He…
You know, growing up we were warned against marrying people who were cheaters, alcoholics/addicts, domestic abusers, etc. But another vice which can have profound effects on a marriage is LAZINESS. Having a home, maintaining a marriage, and raising kids is a lot of necessary and tedious work. If your partner is…
“Oh you want *me* to pick up your toys? Got it! I just put them away in the garbage is all.”
I loved to vacuum when I was a kid. Making carpet furrows was so satisfying and I felt like beast handling that huge ass Kirby!
What were the consequences if you didn’t? That’s the part you may not remember, but which is part of every solid parenting strategy. It may not be something you consider a “trick,” but getting a 6-year-old to remember to do something every single day without being reminded constantly or screwing up constantly…
Because the reality is that men—even the feminist ones, even the well meaning ones—were socialized to think housework and childrearing aren’t their problem. Even with both partners working at an equal relationship, that socialization is hard to kill. The experience is just fundamentally different, so the frustrations…
SEEMS INEVITABLE OR YOU DIE ALONE LOL
How Not to Add an Additional “Child” to Mother After You Become a Mother By Requiring Your Husband to Act Like a Grown-Ass Man
When I was a teenager, I got it in my head that I would have either a baby or a husband, but not both because that would be too much work.
Maddow’s always good, but she’s just been killing it lately.
Rachel Maddow did some great intricate reporting on Manafort’s work on behalf of Russian interests in Ukraine.
