She means that while Robyn has white ancestry in her bloodline, her parents and grandparents are not white, so she’s not biracial (Robyn says she doesn’t have any “direct white ancestry.”) Usually biracial offspring come from two parents with two physically distinct identities (black and white; black and asian, etc.)…

I like it, but I follow mostly food/fashion photographers and animal rescues/people who have accounts of just their pet, so my feed is 90% food/dogs/pretty photos and 10% people I know. I don’t really follow that many celebrities.

I don’t even have an Instagram and I think the “popular posts first!” change is bullshit. It’s for them to get more ads on your feed. Absolutely fucking no one wants anything but reverse chronological. It’s the only way social media makes sense.

Slade Smiley is the jeans and going-out top of people.

I am a person who had never had a permanent falling out with a friend until a year ago, when during the most devastating time of my life my “best friend” unloaded on me, told me all my negative fears about myself were true, and then told me she was the only friend I had willing to tell me the truth and that all our…

My mom used to open my mail “on accident” and read it detailed “on accident”. She used to snoop through my things constantly even though I had nothing to hide. When I was living with my brother alone my parents came to visit one night and they guilted my brother into letting them sleep in his room because he was going…

My father removed my sister’s bedroom door when she was a kid because she kept slamming it. But she put up a sheet and when we wanted to come in we’d stand on the other side and say “knock-knock”

You read the police response to their daughter reporting her father had raped her? That’s more common than you think. Calling the cops often makes the abuse escalate. With that many children, she probably felt even more trapped. If the police didn’t help his daughter, why should she have believed they would help her?

Yes. It is self-defense.

Hi folks! I’d like to thank EVERYONE last week for giving me such support, advice and personal stories in response to my being recommended for an MPhil instead of a PhD. So a few updates:

Thanks!

Does anyone else feel like this just a little like... poverty porn?
