Agree. Also glad this baby is not being dangled over the rail of the balcony.

This is creepy. Can we not promote aggressive long-range paparazzi photos of infants and respect families’ wishes to allow their children private lives until they consent to being public figures?

Edit: and if anyone tries the old “they’re celebrities, they signed up for this” excuse you’ll be dismissed into the pits…

Watching the results come in last night was certainly a mixed bag. It was sad to see the progressive challengers lose at the statewide level but so much good happened at the district level. I took the day off from work yesterday and spent 8 hours knocking on doors in Corona for Jessica Ramos; I almost cried when they…

Hi everyone! Thank you to all of you who gave me advice re: road tripping with my furry friend. It went great and she seemed to actually enjoy the experience. All your tips really helped! (especially the reminder to take paper towel- life saver) Here’s our vacation photos!

I am seeing a new person and we are getting to the point where making out and sex are likely imminent and...I am out of practice! It’s been a while and I feel nervous. How do you psych yourself up to get back into physical intimacy when it’s been a while? And is with someone new?

Hi, SNS! It’s been forever and I’m so inconsistent so every time I come back I talk about how long it’s been and...yeah.

Squeezing this in quick, because I’ve got a thing tonight — an art show/horror video-related thing I’ve been looking forward to for a bit — but hey, everyone!

Serena is the best athlete her sport has ever known and doesn’t get anywhere near the adulation she deserves from inside said sport.

I perpetually wish SNS were posted earlier.

As a few of you know I lived in a homeless hostel and am now working in the homeless sector. I’ve known a few people that have sadly overdosed and died. I’ve met a lot of people with addictions, an addiction is an illness and not easily solved. The one thing amongst many things that I’ve learnt is that no matter how…

FFS, she’s not a goddamn manic pixie dream girl; it wasn’t her job to “fix” a damaged guy, even if for some ridiculous reason you think she would have been able to do so in the first place.

No one ever talks about how often dating somebody who has mental illness can truly become of them or me scenario… Where you feel like you’re going to be destroyed if you stay, but you feel like you’re going to destroy them if you leave. It takes an enormous amount of strength and courage and love to be “selfish” enough…

It’s absolutely disgusting how many people are blaming her for his death. First of all - we don’t know if it was an accidental overdose or purposeful. And no matter what the answer to that is, addiction is a disease, depression is a disease, it’s no one’s fault*. It’s not the fault of the person suffering, and it’s…

How sad is that I’m very impressed of how the counsellor and the two principal handled the thing quickly? We are so used to slut-shaming horror story from school official that it’s surprising when you read of the ones that actually do their job. Also what a dick was that guy? He should have lost the lead for Oklahoma…

My worst breakup was with a boy who didn’t exist. In middle school, the last thing I wanted was to date but my mom was frequently accusing me of having a secret boyfriend. She’d barge into my room and wake me up at 3 AM just to question me/check if I was hiding a boy in my room. Finally, I got fed up with it all and…

I started dating my first boyfriend, “Adam,” in the 8th grade (2002). He was a skater boy, I was a goth girl, can I make it anymore Rachel Cohn? He had blue eyes, wrote poetry and wore metal shirts to gym class — so I made it my goal to get his number by winter break. We did exchange numbers, as well as burned copies…

Junior year. I’d had to move states and thus schools in the dead middle of the year, and it was hell. However, new school had this CUTE boy. M. I crush hard, and look for any reason to be near him or talk to him. One day, we carry something large (can’t remember what) to the auditorium. We walk on to the empty stage…

During the first two weeks of 7th grade I dated the “mysterious new kid” at school. He dumped me because I told him he looked like Doogie Houser, MD (he did). He had an obscenely large house for our small town. I know now that’s because his dad is the co-founder of one of the largest for profit prisons in the country.…

My boyfriend in high school was super christian so we did not fornicate, however I was horny af all the time and was dying to bang. Fast forward to my senior year -- he dumps me right before prom, shows up uninvited to my birthday party, moves my car as a prank (idk) and ends up banging my lab partner in the backseat.…

High school. Senior year. Dumped belittling older boyfriend and began chatting up hot junior dude new to district. One day he slips me a note with a graphic sexual fantasy about me. Zing! go my loins. Without thinking, I scrawled back, “When?” and dropped it on his desk.
