I know this is true, but as a mom of a boy about that age, the look on face still made me tear up in about one second. I’m wondering if he’s also having social issues, maybe just being different from other boys in ways totally unrelated to sexuality. My son is a little like that (no idea what his orientation will be),…

I’m with you. You can be both self serving and kind at the same time - there’s no need for those to be mutually exclusive. Lots of people do volunteer work that helps them gain job experience, or get their name out there - but they also do it because they have a passion for the cause and are doing a good thing. I hate…

I’m hoping, from the last spark of hope I have left burning inside my cynical hull- that it can be BOTH what she actually believes AND a calculated political move. That being a decent human and supporting people is finally coming back to the fore front of what we want from our leaders. The calculated move is to…

Only a rapist can truly understand another rapist. That’s why they attend those potlucks together.

On the real, tho:

This really made me roll my eyes — I grew up a couple towns over from Colfax and it is not this ominous, hillbilly backwater that the author is making it out to be. Not everyone is on meth, not everyone is armed and looking to prey on solo female hikers. This isn’t deliverance. I get that that isn’t quite the dramatic…

Tbh, I’m 22 and I worry about this pretty often.

Eh, she’s talking about herself and her concerns. I’m not going to think less of her for something so personal that she’s sharing.

Her entitlement is so goddamn white it’s blinding. Bitch, you are not even the first person to have their wedding ruined by their family member this week. People whose terrible relatives didn’t also ruin and end the lives of other people in the same fell swoop are not asking for money for a do over. Shut up, and have…

I was referring to the tendency of white people to want to honor tragedies when white people are the ones suffering, but then encourage everyone to “move on” or “heal” when POC are the victims.

Gosh, she was entitled to the best day of her life! Meanwhile, black citizens of South Carolina weren’t even entitled to one single day where they are acknowledged as human beings deserving of personhood since the Confederate flag was flying high and proud the morning after the massacre.

Jesus. Hector. Christ. I hope someone proposes during her stupid fucking wedding. I hope everyone who’s not the bride wears white just to spite her. I hope her maid of honor gives a really mean, passive-aggressive speech. I hope her aunt gets too drunk and hits on the groom, and he goes for it.

I generally give the side-eye to anyone using crowd funding for personal shit, but figure, if someone wants to donate, that’s their business. This however, is such a gross, disgusting, misuse of the concept of crowd funding, they should have to give everyone else money for being such inconsiderate assholes.

We know money cannot replace the wedding we lost.

Solution:

You realize this is a suggestion and not a legal mandate right?

I like it, but think it’s GROSSLY over rated & over used. Like any other condiment I see people drowning their food in it completely wiping out the intended taste of said food.

She was her live in girlfriend whom she “punched ... in the face, kicked her in the face and torso, scratched her, choked her, and grabbed her by the hair in order to slam her against the wall.”
