Exactly. For me, this is analogous to abused wives allowing their partners to molest their children. They’ve been “brainwashed”, gaslighted, are fearful for their safety and sure, maybe they don’t know up from down anymore, but it doesn’t absolve them from responsibility for what happened to their kids.

yeah pretty much... Raise your hand if you haven’t been groped

Also, dance recitals. Wtf are those little bitches even trynna do? Pointe shoes and visible ribs or gtfo

Ugh, this. She is literally appropriating the term “appropriation” and it’s making me stabby

It’s definitely a process, but I think he’s worth it :)

But also, like, always...

Had a similar experience with white men I’ve dated in the past who were very concerned that I’d also dated (and slept with) black men, especially if/when they realized it was more than one (maybe they can justify away one black penis, but multiple black penises is too much?)

This is the exact reason I would never clone any of my (dearly beloved) pets... Sure, it would be amazing to have them a second time, but then I wouldn’t be able to give other lovely, deserving pets a happy home

It looks like it has male-pattern baldness

I had a similar revelation about wolverines a few years back when I moved up north and began working in a rural area. People kept warning me to beware of wolverines and I would laugh and ask them if I should be watching out for Bigfoot, too.

I feel like nothing about the Trump family hair is as it really seems

His syntax is FASCINATING! I don’t think he is able to embed clauses. I’m an SLP student and transcribed his Hannity rant after the debate just for fun and he only had 5 grammatical utterances in 1:43 of speech, and all of them were single-clause utterances. One of the 5 was three words long. Another was two words.

OMGGGGGGG My husband and I have a running argument about leg-washing and I thought we were the only ones! I don’t wash them (bc: pointless) and hubbo thinks I’m filthy... I feel so vindicated right now, which is the third-best feeling behind “just emptied an over-full bladder” and “sweet, sweet revenge”

I fell like this is exactly the same as today’s subscription makeup boxes and socks of the month club, except back then you were getting some brand new invention and now you’re getting face cream that may or may not cause breakouts

Well, I just ran the gamut of emotions here.

It looks like you’ve already gotten a ton of great advice and support, but I will just throw my voice into the chorus of “I’m so sorry that happened to you” and “fuck both of them”

I’m pretty sure it’s legal to get married at age 14 in some places with parental permission. I can easily imagine a scenario where asshole parents would pressure their barely-teenaged daughter to be the fifteenth wife of some creep in his 70's, just because said creep was powerful in the community or the church. While…

I very much agree. Sometimes it’s about the overall aesthetic instead of just looking thinner. I have a friend that won’t wear anything that isn’t black and tight because she thinks volume = fat. She’s missing out on sundresses, cozy sweaters, pouffy skirts, scarves... the list goes on and on

right?!?! Put some goddamn spandex in with the cotton and make the buttonholes a little sturdier- boom! I just fixed fashion

I remember when this video started making the rounds and everyone on my Facebook feed thought it was so charming even though that kid is clearly a teeny jackass who is being raised by larger jackasses
