Yes it was. That one is forever burned into my long term memory.

You’re quite right and I’ve been looking at Lili’s prints online. I love how she expresses this breed (have rescued 2 awesome BT’s) and I want to support her work.

From someone very into dog rescue, thank you for your work.

Yep. People saying she deserved it because: vapid, tacky, sex tape, fame whore, ect. can fuck right off.

What!!! I’m glad I missed all of that news. I haven’t watched their show in years.

From a fellow “plebeian” and not a Kardashian “fan”.... No.

Their natural mouth looks like a goldfish.

Cannot understand how someone that thin has a face that is that round! She’s gained weight since then, however another commenter pointed out the chin implant, which makes better sense.

I know a couple progressive and liberal folks who grew up with very judgmental and punishing messages, across the spectrum of Christianity (the consistent narrative being God as judgmental and punishing; whether Catholic, some type of Protestant, or Non-denominational) who are seeking the kind of church you described.

That’s awful. Whether or not you respect their values, personality, mode of income, or anything else, no one deserves to be raped or robbed, and ultimately subjected to the resulting PTSD of it.

That’s smart.

Very true. A person’s safety and or property can definitely be compromised if people you barely know (or don’t, in a celeb’s case) have the ability to track you.

Thank you for the recommendation, I’m going to check out Ghosts. We had neuroscience classes in my inpatient rehab and I found it really helpful to understand the mechanics and chemical differences.

It sounds like you have a great harm reduction strategy...I wish AA would allow this topic. It gave me some good tools but I had a hard time with the dogmatic approach and some creepy people. I’d never ever discourage it because it’s worked for many people but I don’t believe there’s one single way to get sober. Also…

I second this. I recognized tons of people from AA meetings at my gym, which makes the whole anonymity thing a little sketchy, IMO. I live in a metropolis but of course people typically attend meetings (and their gym) close to home or work. And I was compulsively over exercizing my first year of recovery too, no…

There are probably certain personality traits that get a big psychological reward from having the power to do things like arrest, stalk, kill, etc. Aside from the pension and benefits, the pay isn’t good enough for a rational person to risk their life every day as a non-desk job cop. I’m NOT on the cop’s side but…

Uggh, fuck those people and I’m sorry they’re your neighbors. I’m white, but I have adopted black relatives and people like this scare the hell out of me. We’re pretty careful about who we associate with. But they already definitely notice that they are treated better when they’re with their white family members…

I think police become more callous over time; I know I would if I constantly saw people at probably their lowest possible point in their lives. It is true they try to select hard-ass personalities who already have a chip on their shoulder and prone to aggression.

Seconded this, power is the source of the problem. There is also a component of rascism, no doubt. And a serious lack of education and training to deal with citizens with mental health issues or are not neurotypical.

Yep, and those too. The cleaning is more for the times I gotta be a responsible adult ;-)
