Respectfully, I am trying to understand your points. I don’t think that I can star a post that speaks of a ‘jew supremacist,’ though I appreciate your taking the time to explain your point of view.

“Those are not my words. There is no record of those being my words, even though there are recordings where I said those words. Okay, so maybe they are my words. So what. I will not apologize for my words. I will not stand by them either, because that’s not fair. But if I did say those words, it’s the media’s…

Yep!! And so many people who don’t get tenure even after all that work!

I was just typing a similar comment until I scrolled and saw yours. Here I am supporting my family, under intense pressure to finish my dissertation so I can be “legitimate” and also trying to be a good mom to my kids while we have zero savings or resources and someone just fucking hands it to her because she is rich,…

So many people have devoted 25+ years of their lives to obtaining a PhD, academic research, and writing to teach at a world renowned university. If Angelina Jolie was teaching my class I would want my money back.

so thats what a seventh degree burn looks like...

I’ve been through this. In 2013, my husband moved us from the midwest to Los Angeles, promptly began fucking a mutual friend, and decided our marriage was over (or, if you believe his initial ramblings ‘I’m not sure I even, like, believe in marriage at all’).

It was Buster’s name day this week! I adopted him three years ago. We celebrated with “cake” (basically a ground chicken meatloaf with potato frosting) and puppy ice cream, and he picked out a new toy at PetCo (as did Sophie, so she wouldn’t feel left out). Here he is looking incredibly handsome in his name day bow…

Is Donald Trump not part of the “moneyed elites”? The billionaire who inherited his wealth and has spent his adult life jetting from penthouse apartments to penthouse resorts, and back again? He’s a real man of the people that one.

Okay. That sucks and was probably very scary. But you also have a pattern of behaviour that is disturbing--including the thread from last night. Someone challenges you, you respond with outrage then emotional abuse because they don’t receive things the way you intend them.

Holy shit. I usually stay out of the drama between commenters/groups of commenters here. Especially since I’m a fairly infrequent post. But between this thread, the thread in the mall shooting post from last night, and the slightly older thread where he posted a picture of a knife and said it would be the fault of…

You know, I don’t have particular feelings about you one way or the other--sometimes you say stuff I agree with, sometimes you say stuff I really don’t, mostly you’re just another commenter. But it might serve you to consider why multiple women don’t want you in this women’s space and to attend to their…

You’re being really presumptuous by assuming that this man is mentally ill. Some people are just plain weird, with no mental illness.

richard armitage ftw

I am so flummoxed by this. I mean, kudos to NBC for realizing the problem and making the cut, but hoo boy how did it get in there in the first place? How did it get so far as to make it into the rough cut of the pilot?

My complaint: yesterday I found out because I had to review an overcharged phone bill that my husband has been texting a lady from work. It wouldn’t be a problem or seem shady except for the fact that it was all withheld from me. I had no clue until I kept seeing a random number on the bill. It is all times of day and…

I think another aspect is that some people are resentful she’s famous for being attractive without being conventionally attractive. A lot of her starting movie roles were as “the air-headed hot girl” (Hocus Pocus, First Wives Club, I think Ed Wood too). Not only does she reject in many ways the male gaze, she still…

I have this theory that’s kind of half-baked and it goes like this: SJP, while an attractive woman, is not a bombshell and doesn’t seem to really present herself for the male gaze. Her love of fashion (and Carrie Bradshaw’s love of fashion) seem to be about her gaze and her own pleasure. Societally, we really don’t…

She was also obsessed with the idea that Elijah Wood and Dominic Monaghan were gay lovers who were being held prisoner by New Line Cinema because their forbidden love would impact Lord of the Rings ticket sales — and that Wood and Monaghan were communicating their imprisonment and appreciation of her tireless support…
