I think that most women never get to the point where they are torturing, imprisoning or murdering their “patient.” But I do think that a lot of women are on this spectrum. I just posted about someone I know in real life who seeks out care taking gigs, compulsively. I think there are many women, like her, that are…

While I’m not against porn myself, I’d also like to play devil’s advocate here: Blaming a single individual for this single crime is an over-simplification of the issue. Anti-porn advocates (along with many other perhaps more reasonable people) could point out that there are deeper cultural issues at play — the way…

Yep. My point is that kids are exposed to (often violent) porn and we don’t know what the consequences of that might be so making claims like *porn is harmless* without having anything to back it up is stupid at best and dangerous at worst.

Hell no. I’m all for sex-positive, female-friendly erotica. But you can’t deny that there is some really twisted s**t out there.

Is it though? I don’t mind porn once in awhile but I looked at a free site (pornhub?) the other day and the majority of it was professional but almost all of it was fairly rough, definitely not showing women in the best light. It kinda grosses me out tbh. And they look so young! I’ll stick to dirty stories but I can’t…

Lol vast majority 😂

What these types of “how to get by as unpaid intern” articles never cover is the expense that comes with existing beyond basic necessities, which is something that you HAVE to do as an adult. Like great, you have six roommates, your social events are potlucks, and you upsource goodwill clothing, so you are housed, fed…

My SO and I live together. It’s great. Then again, we’re in our late twenties/early thirties; we know, living-wise, what we like and, more importantly, what we HATE. Piles of filth, unwashed dirty dishes strewn about, etc.

I have lived alone but living with another person is nice. As long as you’re comfortable being “alone” together (you can share a space without having to be up in each other’s shit all the time) you’ll be fine. And now you have a person around to cuddle whenever you want, and who is also required to help you bring in…

I find the juxtaposition between her lovely and profound and wild work and her secluded, quiet, so-called “uneventful” life extraordinarily moving. What a beautiful mind she had!

Are people still named Lavinia? There are so many old timey names that are way more interesting than the Skylars and Madisons and Logans of today.

Ok that was one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever heard. I loved that it was a father and he was feeding the baby not just tossing hi, in the air being “fun dad” like is always shown on tv, but actually taking care of and parenting his son. BUT how the fuck is this an underwear ad?!

On top of everything else, the waste of a transplanted heart is brutal. I know someone who received a transplant, and his feeling of gratitude is matched only by his immense sense of responsibility to deserve it and take care of it. He is acutely aware that not only did someone have to die for him to live, but many…

I know that there are programs (private run/charities, not government run) that rescue women from domestic abuse situations. I wish we gave those programs better funding. I wish that it were a mandate that police give information to women about these programs when they respond to a call. I was extremely paranoid when…

Yes... And Why aren’t more domestic violence calls ending in psych holds? It’s something that is legally viable, no one’s rights are abused, an abused partner is given that 72 hours to determine if she/he wants to leave. It also gets them away from the guns. If we won’t take the guns away from them.

I am shocked. This is my shocked face.

What I want to know, in all honesty, is how do you avoid guys like this? I’m talking in the first stages of dating (because clearly there were warning signs later on if the cops were called for a domestic disturbance). I guess what I’m struggling with is the idea of this poor woman falling in love, making a life, and…

We are not below sea level. We are over an hour from New Orleans. All of this peanut gallery commentary about how ppl shouldn’t live here is a ridiculous outrage. Yes global warming is a real problem, but guess what? People have been living here LONG before global warming studies emerged. Everyone should just leave?…

Well, here I sit in my house in New Orleans, which is bone dry because this is not happening in New Orleans. But it has given an opportunity to the few people who agree with you to come out of the woodwork and repeat these tired pronouncements from ten years ago.

LOL.
