Lucretia Mott's Heresy

This comment thread caused me to go look at Nextdoor for the first time in a year, and MAN was it interesting. One woman was trying to figure out what to do about a dead deer in her neighbor’s backyard, because it was decomposing the way dead things do, and the neighbors were just leaving it there. There was a photo

Her own kittens are *painfully* cute, and I say that as someone who took in a pregnant stray (I didn’t know she was pregnant -- she was tiny) and ended up with her and five babies. I’m kittened OUT, y’all, and Cider still made me go, “Oh, look at that face.”

Yeah, the onus is on which party here?? The person who can barely legally drink, or the famous, rich abuser twice her age? Jesus bitch eating a cracker, I hate people like the OP.

She died.

God, that makes me so sad, if it’s true. I have a close friend whose father was dead by 44 of the rare form of dementia, and it was such a nightmare for all of them. 

Gracious, I just snorted and frightened my dog.

Louisiana (NOLA in particular) has a thriving movie industry, or did during the years I lived there, and I knew a camera operator who worked with Britney professionally from her mid-late teens on, and he said across the board — meaning everyone he’d ever worked with in the business over three decades — she was *by far*

I was sent The Little Friend as an advanced reader copy, and after I read the last page I literally turned the book over and over, thinking there had to be more somewhere. I stood up and looked around in case the real ending had become loose and fallen to the floor, but HAHA JOKE WAS ON ME.

I don’t think they’re sending us their best people, goddess.

I’m the last person who would defend Polanski for his crimes, but given that he’s Jewish, was rounded up with his parents -- who died in the Krakow ghetto -- and spent years as a child escaping the Holocaust, I’d say he knows exactly how it feels to be persecuted for being a Jew. 

I say it about my husband to other people, in front of my husband. I also say it about melons.

It sounds like JLo’s saying she doesn’t want to talk about having made those prior commitments because it turned out she wasn’t committed to them. It’s her prerogative, but the rest of the world just calls that “divorce.” 

And Page Six?? What even.

I’m happy to look at this documentation of which you speak.

Remember the outrage when his annual salary was raised to $100,000 and everyone was screaming about him robbing her? A hundred grand a year to work 24-7 protecting her interests, her estate, and her essential wellbeing. He gave up his own life and his own job to do so, and she turned around right in front of our eyes

I hate reading articles about her here because of how many commenters think the extent of her conservatorship is sinister, like she’s in some Frances Farmers situation. As someone with a mentally ill family member (stable now, thank god) who has NO money, I shudder to think of how grave the situation would be if tens

It’s essentially a small 4chan with a very narrow focus.

That movie is an incredible, and contains a scene that made me audibly gasp. I’ll never forget it.

Halliburton takes the decathlon gold at the Sinister Olympics every time, even when they don’t show up.

I sometimes get this upset about my own, but it’s because his springs need to be oiled, so he makes a lot of noise when I sneak out of bed and ride him at naptime.
