Thank you. I’m doing very well, and he isn’t. I’m 5 years removed from the situation, so I can see where I was acting in a very self-destructive way. I see my friends who left their husbands and are still single, and I wish I could have done the same, at least for my kids. I’ve done a lot of recovery from being…

It’s also worth noting that Some Good News seemed an awful lot like a ripoff of Some More News, an independent show that’s existed for years and that has actual news rather than interviews with Martha Stewart.

I’d imagine taking a free, feel-good Internet show that was maybe a one-off (or at least until the pandemic ends) and turning it into a long-term, corporate backed program on a paid-for streaming service defeats the original charm and purpose of the show.

I am glad you are out of that situation. My ex husband cheated on me, but he never actually admitted it. He just divorced me and immediately moved in with another woman, so it was pretty clear what happened. A few years later, he and I starting seeing each other again and I was under the impression we were getting…

My ex-husband used to travel a few times a year for a hobby that he had, so he’d see a lot of the same people. At some point he was pushing to open the marriage (it doesn’t happen just in advice columns), and I finally told him that if he had to do it, find someone when he travels, but no spending money on her,…

Damn. This.
I ended a relationship after I realized that the “forgive me” story just didn’t add up. It was too Pollyanna: cheating on the periphery. Everything wasn’t as bad as all that. Questioning was shut down with an assertion that I needed to “trust them” but I couldn’t knowing that the math was all wrong.

“Radical honesty is a horrifying prospect to any right-thinking person”

The main problem with the second approach? People tend to know when you’re lying.

You’re wife didn’t bring it up again because she wants to know more. She wants to know if you’re trustworthy, and she thinks more information will help her know for sure.

Came down here JUST for that... on my life, this appears to be the hardest lesson of that early adulthood transition - some things don’t get re-dos.  Some decisions you make are fucking permanent and there is no scripted resolution where everyone lives happily ever after and things work out.  Reasons why it’s all the…

I have a theory: the person who created that thing has never taken care of an actual human baby. 

At one point did the creator of that doll think, “oh shit, what have I done?” Because that is one ugly ass baby.

Of course Biden’s integrity is dubious, but that doesn’t change the fact that hers is as well. When two people you have good reason to mistrust disagree on an allegation ... you have to go to other available facts.

Yep.  And this is the thing.  Reade had a horse.  Horses are expensive pets.  If you are so poor, that you can’t afford to pay rent, you don’t own a horse.  

It was years ago and she has since apologized and said she will do better. My point is you are holding on to your opinion formed that long ago - people often are less forgiving of shitty behavior from people of color than of white people.  Especially commenters on this site.  If that doesn’t apply to you then it…

Why is Karen even going after Kondo? Kondo doesn’t make food!

David Brooks, Bret Stephens and Bari Weiss all still have their columns, but please by all means continue to cheer Roman’s misfortunes because she had the gall to say something mildly rude about a fucking millionaire.

For some racist reason a lot of shitty adults decided to bully Wallis because they hated that a black child was happy and confident.

While she did write some strongly-worded tweets about Wallis (calling her cocky), she never called her a c**t. That was a tweet from the Onion.

God DAMN I am tired of this “Marie Kondo is selling out!” whining. Kondo is not anti-stuff. She does not object to personal possessions. She has nothing against capitalism or the acquisition of material goods. At all.
