It’s insane how one of the repeated arguments his team used was that Amber having not deleted evidence of his behaviour was “proof” it was all a concocted lie.

I saw this and the outcome was exactly what I expected. Like...he called for this case and the evidence was bad before he brought truckloads more in against himself.

I think that societal change starts with enough people thinking about this that they raise awareness of it as an issue, and that educators and parents actually do something about it so we have generational shifts. If these books help, that is good. So what if they aren’t perfect? Don’t let “perfection be the enemy of…

I feel like there’s some missing the point in this blog.

Try to be constructive instead of shitting on people trying to do good but not knowing enough not to make mistakes. Hopefully, you will find people willing to listen and learn.

Meanwhile, let’s see the trenchant important additions to the discussions around the impeachment that dear reader was having before they were interrupted by Jez stories about hats and dumps, shall we?

I think it’s also important to remember that 10-12 years ago, no one was available for constant texting, Facebook messaging, or video chatting. We’re now all suddenly supposed to be expected to drop everything for anyone the moment they reach out through any channel (and there are many!).

I came here to say this. Many of my friends suffer from anxiety, depression, dating problems etc. And as a friend I always want to listen to them. But I also have those same issues, and sometimes I can’t handle dealing with it. Being low on spoons takes a toll.

That’s not the point at all. It’s that all of us are already carrying a certain amount of emotional burden on any given day. There is nothing narcissistic to recognize their are moments in which we don’t have the bandwidth to safely carry other people’s.

Relationships are work, though. Not all work is paid, nor does it necessarily make sense to change that. But they are work, and they do involve labor. Being there for someone to rant to, providing them emotional support and/or advise, scheduling future get-togethers, figuring out how to communicate with different…

There’s distinctly a difference between sexual assault, and a consensual relationship with a subordinate. Not to say the affair is excusable - I do think there should be consequences for that, I’m not convinced it should be resignation, but she's really stepping down oved a humiliating and offensive campaign from her…

CATASS AND I DEMAND THE CHIEF QUEEF BRIEF!

You assume that these creeps aren’t already everywhere, in positions of power and trust, and that people knowing they are creeps is going to make a difference. Look at Weinstein. Look at alllllll the thousands and thousands of Catholic priests, not to mention all the other religious leaders out there in the world who…

“Priest placed on leave, under investigation for sexual abuse of a minor.” Unless he’s not under investigation, in which case, that’s the story.

If you go to a movie with me, the implication is that you went and participated willingly. There’s no sense of intimidation or threat or manipulation on my part. We’re in this together equally.

Until I dated a black woman I had no clue about black hair. So I handled it how I handle most things about race that I’m ignorant of: I kept my mouth shut. 

Being a fool in real life and online are two different things though. Most people who are quick to be outraged, wouldn’t be if it all took place off line.

It’s not fair that some little girls can wake up in the morning & throw their hair in a ponytail or throw on a headband & out they go. But god forbid you’re a little black girl & do that. Leave little kids alone to not be stressed out about their dang hair! It’s hair damn it!!!!!

I feel so bad for this girl being scrutinized in public like this. What are people thinking?

Her hair doesn’t even look that messy especially compared to the other girls.
