I used to work in healthcare and once had a patient fake a seizure for attention. I was a brand new nurse at the time and ran for my preceptor. She strolled into the room, checked to see if the bed was wet and then walked away and told me to request a psych consult. People who fake seizures never remember that they…

I think people who commit most crimes are corner-cutters, which makes them sloppy. But this guy just sounds like a garden-variety idiot.

There’s a whole internet industry of people claiming to have never seen it before, supposedly watching it for the first time and filming themselves for reaction videos.

In all fairness, you are way oversimplifying the Olivia Wilde situation. It wasn’t that she just dated Styles, a younger man, but that she left the father of her kids to do it and in a really harsh way if half of the rumors are true. That Styles was effectively her employee at the time, which introduces the whole…

Hell I remained friends with my rapist for a couple of YEARS, trying to pretend to myself that it was somehow consensual. When you’re young, you often think denial is a viable strategy...and it does at least get you through the day sometimes, and through the exam period. I needed to get a lot older before I was…

Hayley noted that Kohberger “was not even the creepiest or scariest Tinder date I’ve been on.”

It’s also hard as a young woman to listen to your instincts. If you have doubts about a guy, people will just brush off your concerns. As a young woman, I met this guy, he wanted to take me out. He was well dressed, clean, polite and from a good family ...every parents idea of a nice boy. I wanted to cancel and run,…

Win Butler for the, um, win.

Any asshole can post on a public comment board.

It sucks how common it is for the quirky guy who presents himself as a warrior against societal ills turns out to be the person he speaks out publicly against

Correct. My father has never hugged my brother. He hugs me, because I’m his daughter, but hug a son? How wimpy.

Both of my brother’s had a partial all-boys education, and let me tell you about those shitty environments.

pushing the argument that his rise is a result of the left’s failure to speak to young men online

it’s because the right talks to them and the left doesn’t

Lucien Laviscount? Barbara Broccoli? What is this, a knock-off Harry Potter?

Sorry, all, it’s time for a chav Bond.

ATJ is fine for the role, just as long as all the Bond girls are 23 years older than him.

For real. In a week where the phrase “Bill Cosby Stand-Up Comeback” has been floated, we ALL needed this.

Seems he’ll be going to prison precisely because he has a hard time letting teenagers go.

And because God hates us and nothing matters the algos got the last laugh of all by telling some PE bro in the skunkworks of Great Hills Partners that slideshows are good for generating more impressions, leading to this unnecessarily stilted 2022 year-in-review article.
