So much this!!! Mental illness does not equal being an asshole. This is actually kind of my mantra as a person with chronic depression. It helps to remind me that I’m not completely worthless. It also reminds me to respect and be kind to others as best as I can even when my depression is overwhelming.

Look, I have bipolar disorder with major depression. It’s about communication. If you break plans because you can’t get out of bed, for example, have the decency to communicate that you have to break your plans. No ghosting. There’s a difference between being mentally ill and being a jerk. You can’t blame being a…

I didn’t know that guy from “Pawn Stars” was such an aggressive Bears fan.

I’m having a hard time believing that there are Bears fans in Chicago.

That is very unusual in my experience. We have 3 Catholic hospitals in our area and none of them provide them.

Yes, and we basically stopped attending family gatherings because his family refused to acknowledge the fact that I have my own family and might (oh so silly me!) occasionally want to see them on the holidays, especially since I am 3200 miles from them and have been living here for 6 years now. No I’m #notatallbitter…

If I were in your place, I’d call her on this and accept your mother’s invitation. She might stay mad, which frees you & your boyfriend up for more holidays, or she’ll get over her drama queen self and show up on at your mom’s on Thanksgiving in time for pie.

Having issues with my boyfriend’s mother and it’s really stressing me out. She’s very set in her ways and always insists that gatherings be held at her house (all the while bitching and bemoaning the amount of work she has to do around planning and cooking) which is a seperate issue, however my mother has offered to…

Call your grandmother and tell her she needs to teach her son some respect.

Given that they have actually been threatening shootings and assassinations if Trump loses (and they don’t seem to be empty threats either. Recently, three men have been arrested for planning to use car bombs on houses of immigrants the day after Election Day), I honestly wouldn’t put it past them to try and pull a…

That’s a beautiful statement. Hopefully the fact that she put a human face on the people being threatened stops the hate.

racist when seeing article about this: “They have 1st amendment rights, blah, blah. They have freedom of expression...”

Regarding Boulder’s liberalness - isn’t it also super white? There are plenty of “liberal” white people who, once you get them talking, are blindingly racist, homophobic and misogynistic.

I’m a recovering drug addict. I’ve been through the whole nine, jail, rehab, psyche hospitals, all more than once. Each of those places it’s pretty much 100% that the women have experienced sexual abuse. Tbh, it was EVERY woman I met but I’m sure there are some exceptions I’ve just not seen or met these women in my…

I’ve seen at least a dozen banners stating “trump or revolution” in the last week.
