I do not consider snooker players, dart players, chess players, or professional gamers athletes. I do think they are incredibly skilled, and don’t think it detracts from them in anyway to be a non-athletic sport.

Yeah, but they live streamed the hearing and that advocate was practically foaming at the mouth against the mother. He clearly hates her - I don’t see how he can be seen as neutral or impartial. It just seems like they are reaching so far beyond what their actual legal powers should be that it is horrifying.

The entire concept of “parental alienation” is highly disputed, and definitely not established in the medical field. The simplest explanation tending to be the true one, seems FAR more likely the kids don’t want to be around their dad because of something he did. Brainwashing? Seriously? smfh

Judges like her need to be thrown from the bench. I had a magistrate like that for my custody case as a kid. My mom had full custody of me and wanted to move out of state because she couldn’t find work. My dad, being the charmer that he was, refused to allow me out of state (I was 14, going on 15 at the time) and so…

Court-ordered advocates are often woefully undertrained, and the mad dads have succeeded in making some court staff believe that “parental alienation syndrome” is a real thing (it’s not, according to the AMA and every other reputable medical association).

Seriously, I don’t care if the kids are actually suffering from brainwashing/parental alienation syndrome or not, the way she spoke to them and treated them was flat-out unacceptable no matter what. She cannot say she was acting in their best interests while simultaneously verbally abusing them and for all intents and…

Jesus H Christ.... Ok fine maybe sending them somewhere neutral is the best thing right now. Doing what's best for the boys should've been everyone's prime concern. Sending them to a juvenile detention facility seemingly out of spite was NOT doing that. She deserves all the criticism she's getting for doing that to…

Given that their father left them in jail not allowed to see one another or have their mom or any of her family visit while he fucked off out of the country for two weeks, I’m entirely willing to believe they’ve got damn good reasons for wanting nothing to do with him.

No one is allowed to attend her parties unless they are highly photogenic and good at posing the way her Instagram PR crew tell them to.

Taylor and Co look so fucking BORING. Christ on a crucifix

So I’ll get my pr people to call your pr people and we’ll organise a party for instagram. Don’t worry, Ill have photographers and filter pros on hand. Do you know any black girls? We need at least one at the party so I don’t look racialist.

Love Taylor

And the political right creates a false equivalence between literally every law. “Oh, I can’t punch this homeless guy, but he can sit on the sidewalk all he wants?”

I couldn’t give a hoot’s toot whether Kim identifies as feminist or not. I mean, good for her, but still. Whatever.

He doesn’t figure Danica is a person, obviously.

I have a dear friend who was ghosted. It was one of the cruelest things I’ve ever seen and it took so much longer to recover that I think it would have from a “regular” breakup.

What is the back story between you and Ed Sheeran?

How do we know that the crazy judge hadn’t increased his visitation while imposing that ridiculous breastfeeding ban? Because that seems to be what is stated in the article.

I believe you said “empathy”, and I kind of get what you’re urging here (I think!). Calling for a general empathy we would have for any human being? Sure, I believe that. I think it’s possible to empathize with someone without sympathizing with them, and I think you can also empathize while angry, or without forgiving…
