My dad left my wife for a younger woman and announced the divorce without my mom around. He moved out of state. He sued his place of work once and caused a huge shitstorm. He didn’t go to my sisters wedding because he didn’t like the guy.

Thank you! I don’t know why we talk about “fight or flight” but never freeze, which is far more common.

“Freezing is a third fear response recognized in the field of psychology but, for some reason, missing from public discourse. Someone tries to put a hand on me; I’m uncomfortable, but I can’t move or speak. “No” is not clear.” http://ladyclever.com/culture/freezi…

Flipped through the video fully expecting to see titties bustin’ out all over

Yeah, this squicks me the fuck out. I had Lyme Disease. It sucked. The neck pain is no joke and oh man, on the antibiotics for it I spent basically an entire month vomiting all fucking day long- I’m afraid to go back to the dentist now. My poor teeth.

Whatever, I’m here for it. I appreciate Willow and Jaden and their “weirdness”. I appreciate folks in the limelight who show the multiplicity of Blackness. We will have little Black kids who see themselves as weird/different/eccentric, who don’t fit their peers idea of what it means to be Black (and yes, this even

That was painful to listen to... I actually like a few Celine Dion songs, but this cover was terrible. She struggled with the low notes bc her voice is very nasal, then she went flat so many times... Not trying to be braggy, but I have perfect pitch, so I always hear *every * freaking mistake people make, and it’s

I love that all the Brits are here to comment and that comment is:

‘Navajo’ is today a generic descriptor for a particular category of design and style.’

Oh holy problematics, batman!

I always like it when my ethnic group is compared to Miller Lite, don’t you?

Great. Can I wrap a used tampon around the door to a gun shop?

The basic elements of the prequels are amazing, actually.
