This is the same guy who writes about having an emotional affair with an older married woman at work. Different story, different burner, same writing. It's either a weird writing exercise or a kink.

I know a Khrystyna and it always bothered me but it turns out it just the Ukraine version and so I guess I need to let the irritation go.

This story contains two betrayals.

Psalm is a word I have never been able to say comfortably. The silent “P” is fine (duh) but I can’t slide “al” into the “m”

I’m not proud of this but it happened.

It was the summer before 5th grade, and bff and I were preening in front of the mirror in my bedroom. I turn to bff and, stone cold, say, “you know, bff, I really am prettier than you.”

It won’t let me edit so.....

I’m pretty pissed at one of my long time best friends right now. He’s been a shit friend for the last year or so and now that he finally got his first girl friend ever, shit’s just getting worse. We’ve been buddies for 20 years now (since 2nd grade). He’s currently one of my two roommates as well, which makes this…

What I find the orthorexia movement does, is estrange people further from our body’s needs under the guise of catering to one’s physical needs. We have a built-in instinct regarding what we need. Our appetite is a great guiding light when we are actually in touch with it, and one day that may mean lettuce, feta and…

But even then, who texts an employer to report something like this? No eating rules exist to prevent littering so there’d only be something to mention if the worker had left a mess behind.

This has been the cause of so many fights between me and my husband. My husband THINKS he is doing equal work, when I have to so much more than him. For example, my daughter’s bedtime routine is me changing her clothes, reading her a book, and then laying by her until she falls asleep (don’t judge). My husband’s role…

Yeah Comey is dealing with the mind-blowing, world-disrupting shattering of his Delusion of Superiority. See, all his life, he knew there were shitty white men doing shitty things cuz he was one of them, just infrequently he thought, and for good reasons. Yeah, he heard the whining of women, minorities, and other…

Same, and yet...

Some guy my wife used to work with actually sent her a dick pic last year (over facebook) out of the blue like three years after he got fired. It’s just baffling.

Also, completely infuriating. I mean, her status clearly says married, and her second to most recent post was a picture of the awesome salad…

It’s like Pepa by a sex doll manufacturer or wax museum curator.

I’ve gotten patted down several times as a brown lady at the airport. My first take is: comparing this experience to her expectations of being treated like royalty is an odd first reaction, especially one to tweet. Her subtext is: I should not be treated like this because I’m rich. When a more helpful reaction would…

For one, she isn’t showing rational judgment, and is demonstrating an utter lack of concern for the wellbeing of the very people who just fought a war against the undead for her. Given the Targaryen predisposition for madness, these are HUGE warning signs. She’s also now tried to conceal the truth about Jon’s true…

Airport security is a total crap shoot. Worldwide, not just in the US. I live in New York so I fly out of Kennedy, La Guardia, and Newark. You know, the city that was the principal target on 9/11? Never really a problem. I’ve also flown out of Dulles and Reagan National Airport in DC, the other big target, and again,…

Nobody is saying she can’t race. She can race against men all day long, if she wants. She just can’t race in a division that is specifically limited in order to encourage women to participate in sports. By your argument, it would be discriminatory to keep her from dominating at the Special Olympics as well.

This and the Michael Phelp’s examples are poor comparisons at best.

The social science researcher in me doesn’t like the area graph shown in this story. Its data isn’t visualized properly. So using the data points listed in the original, I made a bar chart:
