Symptoms like that are also inducative of medical conditions like brain tumors or lesions. Ugh fuck jindal.

It was as if something was pushing down on my chest, making it very hard for me to breathe.

I like Moxie a lot. It’s a refreshing update of the tradition of naming girls “quality” names, such as Patience, Prudence, and Chastity.

The sick part of abuse is not only the violence but the aspects of it that don’t leave physical scars. There’s a cycle that happens where the physical abuse is followed by a period of extreme dotage and to the point of dependency. The abused person feels like the abuser’s life will completely fall apart without them.…

I don’t know very much about her, but there’s something about Liv Tyler that makes me root for her. She just seems so gentle and sweet-natured and daffy and kind. A couple of weeks ago, I had a stupendously self-pitying cold, and cheered myself up by building a misery fort under my duvet and re-watching the old Lord…

Yeah I guess if it was as simple as providing support very few peoplewould ever be there twice. It is sad to see decent people ending up back in bad situations but I can certainly empathise with an inability to change situations that you know are bad and emotional manipulation screws with your head on a massive scale.…

See, I really like Moxie, Pilot, and Blue as stand-alone names. When you pair it with the middle names, it gets weird.

I always thought it tended to be people lacking a support structure or who felt they lacked other options neither of which are true here.

The support system will encourage you and be there for you when you finally see the light, but you have to break out of the victim mentality and it's really, really hard.

Speckly Jim!

The other day, I saw her book in a bookstore and moved it back to the fiction section.

Yes. That would be old-timey shade to be exact.

Makes me long for the old days when we hashed this sort of thing out through messages attached to carrier pigeons.

UM

BUT IF YOU CAN JOKE ABOUT BEING A RAPE SURVIVOR

WHY CAN I NOT JOKE ABOUT HOW FUNNY RAPE IS

WHY ARE THESE TWO DIFFERENT THINGS NOT THE SAME THING

NUANCE AND CONTEXT ARE POLITICALLY CORRECT LIE WORDS

The way you say that makes it even grosser.

Plot twist! Wouldn't it be interesting if the slutty nanny actually banged Tom Brady on the Vegas trip and he's the Sugar Daddy here?

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, but sources say they didn’t appear to be having a great time. “Neither of them looked too happy,” a witness told People. “They didn’t even look at each other.

Except that christmas trees (like Santa) are more of a cultural-thing instead of a religious-thing. There are plenty of people who celebrate gift-exchange-stuff-your-face-day who don’t believe in Jebus.

Because Christmas trees aren’t religious. They’re literally Pagan in origin. You think there were many conifers in Bethlehem? Also, unless you’re completely out of touch with the modern understanding of a Christmas tree, you’d be able to tell that it’s lost most of its connection with Christmas and the connection…
