Thank you. It was actually liberating. Turns out you're not so worried about going to hell when allegedly the folks going to heaven are abusive assholes.

Reading comprehension must be pretty low in Sunday school in that town.

It somehow feels even more tragic that she was believed by:

As someone who was assaulted by a person described by his defenders as “the most Christ-like person they know,” I feel I can say all these God-fearing folks are doing a terrible job encouraging conversion.

My first thought pretty much every morning:

I’m honestly curious; why do you provide the actors’ names in parentheses (Eccleston and Theroux), but Mary is just Mary, not Mary (Janel Moloney)?

Having someone cheat on you is awful. But it sure as fuck does NOT warrant assault.

But a broken trust is broken. Even if the relationship “fully recovers” the people that got cheated on will ALWAYS have the lingering worry that it might happen again because it’s happened before. You can’t unshatter a plate. You can glue it back together the best you can, but it will never be an unbroken plate, and…

It’s not so much that you made a mistake, it’s the tenor and tone of your commentary.

Here’s the thing, though...it’s not like he was deliberately bringing it up to ruin your mood. It was ALWAYS on his mind. Even in the happy moments. Being angry for a long time is, you know, a thing that happens when your spouse cheats on you. His anger is justifiable. And honestly, your ultimatum? Would probably have…

This. I know people who still feel angry about being cheated on years later...it doesn’t mean they’re bitter and holding onto the past, but it takes A LOT longer than 8 months. If my cheating spouse issued me an ultimatum to basically get over it, I would probably file for divorce.

So, what constitutes cheating? I think it’s obvious that sexual activity does, but what about ‘emotional’ cheating? How about sexting, or other sexually-suggestive activities? Anything else? Is it all equal, or is some cheating worse than others? (Personally I feel they’re all cheating and that emotional cheating is…

Archie would also be a pretty apt fit for an O11 type film. Let’s also throw in Eve Myles, CCH Pounder, Allison Janney, and all my other favorites.

Actually, women work more hours outside than home than in decades past, but men haven’t picked up the slack at home to a corresponding degree.

Especially since no one is talking about Internet conversations except him.

Data analysis isn’t for anyone, huh?

That graph indicates that men work a little over one more hour a day on average. Since most of the men I know can only work late when their partners pick up the kids and/or make dinner, that’s hardly an excuse for not helping around the house.

All I know about Nantucket is Wings, and that’s all I need to know.

Yep, I hate my hair when it's clean! It's twice the size on my clean hair day.
