I could've written this letter. And then I got a metric fuckton of therapy and realized that I was actually a functioning co-dependent (thanks, Narcissist Dad!) programmed to Be Highly Competent (so that I couldn't be criticized and maybe would also get a little bit of attention for my achievements (note: didn't…

Montgomery Clift. Not Cliff. Sheesh. Whippersnappers.

So y'all are arguing that a man with multiple children from multiple partners experiences the same social judgment - including loss of employment and other opportunities - as a woman in the same circumstances? Ok. Maybe times actually have changed.

Sure. All comments on the fact that he's been irresponsible. Nothing that even slightly rises to the equivalent of "whore". In fact, there *is* no equivalent to "whore" for men.

"Yea man, I totally saved this lady's life or something. Good waves out there today, bro." There. Fixed that for you.

Jesus these administrators are so fucking stupid. Everyone knows you say "pew pew" when you're playing games and "bang bang" when you really mean business.

"This does not get out to anyone on campus." It's like they really believe in Jedi Mind Tricks.

Holy Mary Mother of God. I thought the was going to be a story about night terrors. This is literally my experience every night, due I assume to some sort of sleep disorder. I know by now that it's all in my mind, and I am able to calm my initial panic and go back to sleep pretty quickly. (In the early days I would…

And for them the lesson is next time, hire better lawyers.

RDJ and The Rock are in NYC at the same time??!! Pantymelt alert!
