This I can agree with. While her family’s methods were less than ideal (wrong, in fact) it wasn’t hard to see why she would think Peter’s actions and the way he talked to her were normal, considering. Also, more than just her family didn’t think he was ideal for her. I think her ex Leon, Noelle’s dad, was a bit cool…

Nah. She does. She’s extremely needy (at least from what they show on TV) with her friendships, her relationships, etc. It’s almost like she is begging to be liked because she needs that to feel good. Peter talked to her like a child and she just meekly went along with it. She married Peter even though EVERYONE saw…

Oh, okay. So yes. I think some of them have bought into the rhetoric because they are left out. Also, I do think the media has done a fucked up job of framing privilege as something that all white folks have (which, they do...but to a point) and not highlighting that socioeconomic privilege is really what they should…

I happen to agree with you on all of this. I understand why his message resonated with people in the Rust Belt (where I’m originally from). I think he used the essence of the scapegoat to appeal even more deeply to those who already hold those perfectly reasonable views of feeling left out. The ones who really have…

That last sentence you wrote is especially true. Folks cannot seem to understand that support of person x means support of person x. They are in this idea that support of person x -y (being the hateful rhetoric, actions, etc) = Just fine.

I’m intrigued. Please explain what you mean by “do I think that people voted for him”? I’m reading that as “do I think people went to the polls and voted for him” to which I’d have to say yes, I do. If that’s the correct interpretation of the question, then are you suggesting that he was not elected by the public, but…

I understand and tend to agree. I think there are “levels” (if you will) to racism and how it’s expressed. The blatant “I hate ____” (insert marginalized group here) type racism hasn’t been as widespread (until recently). That silent, stealth bigotry of “we like you, but not your kind” was what most of us were feeling…

Good on you for raising a kid who is aware. And yes, fuck the person who thinks otherwise. Goodness.

“Everyone who voted for Trump is not racist, but everyone who voted for Trump had to decide that racism was not a dealbreaker.”

I live down this way and I’m seriously thinking of drinking myself into a stupor with these results so far.

I hate FL right now. Especially south Florida, which is heavily immigrant. Why they re-elected Rubio and went for Trump is ridiculous.

Of the music? I still am. Of him? Not so much.

I went through a deep detox after my last relationship after realizing that I dated a narcissist for five years. One thing I realized is why WOULDN’T he want to deal with me? Not on some “I’m this amazing person” humble brag type shit, but on some, “I’m a decent person who works hard, loves deep and tries to be a good…

My ex was a gym buff. He was in shape for competitions (bodybuilding and physique stuff) and he used to fuck other people during what I thought was “gym time”. I had gone to the gym and worked out with him before. His regimen was insane. He looked like he put in 3 hours a day at the gym and I had already been with him…

Last time I went there and got FREE gauc, I ended up throwing up in the left lane of a busy intersection. So, while I love gauc, I will NEVER get it again there.

It used to be really flavorful and good. It’s pretty bland now (not sure if they changed their recipe or what). Also, because it’s not authentic, it has its own niche. Every time I want a burrito I do not want to have to visit an authentic place to get it. So it serves its own purpose. If the food was better, I’d go…

I didn’t even bother clicking the link to that article after seeing the title. Obviously click bait and I’m over it. Banks was CLEARLY wrong and has been offensive in every way for a long time. Makes complete sense Banks go out and act an ass and then spin it for publicity because that’s her shtick, clearly.

After watching this video, I can see what you mean. Lol. I still don’t actually care, but I can definitely see the difference in the walks. Hadidi is particularly bad, honestly.

The shade is toooo much!

If you go back over the years and see his physical appearance with each person he dated, you can see that he doesn’t seem to have a sense of self. When he dated Winona, he did the whole “Winona look”. Same with Gwenyth Paltrow and even Jennifer. While he didn’t do the whole “look” thing with Angie, he pretty much took…
