More accurately - humiliation is SUPER effective at changing another person’s behavior short term, but it frequently backfires later. So, perfect tool for a teacher who only has to deal with the kid for a year or two.

YOU AND I DISAGREE ON THE PARENTS’ MOTIVE BEHIND THE GOFUNDME ACCOUNT AND THAT’S OK BUT THAT DOES NOT DIMINISH THE FACT THAT THIS TEACHER WAS COMPLETELY OUT OF LINE AND SHOULD NOT BE A TEACHER

California’s mandatory parent leave is gender neutral.

Why not just have her remove the shoes for the duration of the class?

You’re right, it is a fantastic teaching mechanism.

let me say it again:

I was seeing a CBT twice a week for anxiety and depression. She asked me if working out was a way for me to combat that, and I said “yes, probably, but it’s a time issue...” She said, “well, you have a lunch hour, why not do it then?”

because i’m here. talking to you. paying you out the ass.

I don’t see her anymore.…

So here’s the thing: no one was actually asking for diet advice.

This is an article about kardashians.

I didn’t say anything about not working out. But there’s a set of bodies that are achievable for me, and a set that are not. I’ve made a conscious decision not to bother pining after bodies that I’ll never achieve, and it makes my life a lot easier.

I showed up to a tennis meet up not long ago, and all of the women were in actual tennis outfits. The skirts, the tennis tops, visors, etc. I rolled up in a t-shirt and capris with pockets. One woman actually refused to talk to me. Even though we were playing on the same court. Bitch this isn’t a Country Club, you’re…

I don’t know which side of the debate I’m on with this. On one hand the appeal of being comfortable and still look “fashionable” is a big one, but then I think of how this is all thanks to Lululemon and I get annoyed. Because even though there are cheaper options out there now, this all got started with them and the…

uh

I’m a single mom. I wake up at 5 am every day to cook dinner, make lunches and breakfast and do chores. I get home from picking up my kid at afterschool care around 6:30. I feed my child, put him to bed, then do emails and house work. laundry etc. There is no extra hour for me to watch TV or sleep or work out. Your…

The thing (for me) that’s so seductive about this whole cult isn’t necessarily the idea of having three hours a day to work out (though obviously that’s amazing) but rather the fact that working out for them is so, sort of, passive? Like they have assistants and a trainer and a cash flow that just ....make it happen…

My rapist admitted it to police the night of, he didn’t call it rape but admitted I couldn’t consent. I went to the hospital that night and documented all my injuries. He admitted to me in a text that he would plead guilty if I ever pressed charges. That wasn't enough for a Hennepin County prosecutor. I wonder if it's…

I can imagine the thought process must be “Jeesh, she must have done something really bad to make him this mad”.

Fuck this asshole. My daughter is autistic. She has been autistic since she was born. I knew there was something different long before she got the MMR vaccine. My daughter being autistic is just who she is. She sees and processed the world differently. That’s okay. I wouldn’t change her even if I could. To me it…

The Twerp just convinced the other gma to buy her a dress up dress. Her next plan is to get “donut” (that’s me) to buy her a Doc McStuffins lab coat and maybe a vampire cape. Kid loves to dress up.
