I created a burner account because this story is so mortifying. I was in an emotionally abusive relationship, then marriage for over 20 years. No matter how I toiled and sacrificed, nothing was ever good enough, including gifts. Circumstances conspired so that I ended up jobless before a Christmas some years ago,…

I'm not excusing nontransparent institutions who put up these barriers like UVa did (so basically all of them) but it's not "failures on both sides." This is par for the course with universities, government agencies, etc.

I don't really see what the problem is here.

one of the girls told a psychologist before a previous hearing that she talks to unicorns and Voldemort

It's about some crazy girl he still wants to fuck.

okay, like this song makes me want to slow dance with a hot dude in a hanes undershirt in a dive bar with low lighting and we're both drinking whisky and everyone's a little sweaty because it's a sultry summer night.

Don't besmirch the good name of dildos by comparing them to bros. One is a masturbating tool and the other is a tool for masturbation.

Latino nannies.

"Frankly if I wanted dietary advice I'd try to find a decent naturopath or consult a nutritionist."

Naturopathy is pseudoscience.
