Not the case. The ex didn’t live there (that’s why he was picking the kid up: for a visit) and had actually filed for divorce a couple of months earlier.

TBH, I find it fair enough that if you (whatever your gender) enter your home with your child and find your partner’s freshly showered lover chilling, you get mad.

dont forget deadpool where she takes a strapon to ryan reynolds

I know that Elizabeth probably doesn’t have any inclination to meet Trump and really, she’s 90 AND the Queen so she shouldn’t have to suffer fools anymore. But I’d love if they actually did meet because I’m sure we would get some priceless reaction shots from her. Plus imagine if he tried to push past her for a photo…

How did they get his pampered doughy ass to go to Camp David?

Oh, I’m familiar! Nathan Fillion in his younger days — yow!

I agree that this is one of your ‘pick your battles’ situations.

I think that’s the point though. You can. We all can, it’s just so fucking hard sometimes. It’s so hard when someone is shitty to you to recognize that they’re probably coming from a place of pain, so we go through a cycle of negativity being shitty to each other around and around. But then if somebody can respond to…

It’s great it turned out this way but:

I imagine Trump would be mauled by a pack of corgies if he tried anything.

I met her once at a sci-fi convention in Toronto. She was very nice and awesome.

Trump’s speaking at Camp David right now.

Yeah, I noticed that too. With all the other stuff going on, I was too lazy to make that point as well. Of course, they would have denied it anyway.

While every adjective follows a “my”, they’re all incredibly positive, person specific compliments. The same way you call someone “my love” and you’re not really making it about you. Even if she was... But she isn’t.

Yep. They’re totally doing that. Also have used “they” for you when you had already stated (maybe repeatedly) that you are a woman.

If everyone you meet in one day is a miserable prick, it means you’re the miserable prick.

Replace “love of your life” with just about anything remotely positive and it still works. “Someone you liked very much” would be agonizing too. Fuck, watching a *stranger* suffer and die is it’s own kind of suffering. Just stop your nonsense.

I don’t know anything about Elizabeth Gilbert. I am, however, a HUGE fan of Rayya. We messaged back and forth for awhile, and she was an amazing and talented woman. (Harley Loco was AWESOME BTW). It irritates me that every headline about her death simply refers to her as “Elizabeth Gilbert’s partner”. =(

Gilbert’s lack of self-awareness around her various privileges, particularly in Eat Pray Love, really bothered me when it was first released. I’ll admit I used to and still can be kind of eye roll-y when it comes to her. But since I’ve avoided her writing, I really can’t say what kind of growth she’s had since then.
