Stoya wrote a piece on this for Vice.
Well...It's 1am where I am...sue me if my reading comprehension is no good in the dead of night...
Except for the fact that her name is on the piece at the beginning and the end and she mentions her husband, Brad Pitt, in the body of the piece.
But so much of the post was about how she could feel nothing about anything. So really, in a way, isn't your inability to feel like you relate and feel comforted that someone has summarized it so well...isn't that sort of relating to the post? It's a very chicken/egg situation, she talks about not being able to relate…
She's not a doctor, she's a comedian. Jesus, give her a little perspective.
I know you said this but I think you need to fully internalize it: nothing you ever say is going to fix someone's depression. They don't want you to say anything or expect you to say "the right thing." Depressed people don't want anything. I think the best thing you can do is keep urging them to get professional help.…
The last time I was seriously depressed, I ran into an article entitled "10 Things To Say To Someone Who Is Depressed," which I quickly renamed "10 Things To Say To Someone Who Is Depressed (If you want to get punched in the teeth)." I understand the frustration of trying to say anything to someone who is depressed,…
OMG he's no one without his eyebrows. Wow.
OH MY GOD!!!! AIIIIII! I thought he was creepy WITH the brows, but now....now everything has changed.
Okay, you've completely missed my point. The people that love the idea of push presents? Are the ones that get tons of shit thrown at them the minute they pee on a stick.
In what universe does a guy who gets the cops called on him for taking young naked girls out in his yard on dog leases gets a reputation of being "fun" and "charismatic" who is trusted by neighborhood parents? WTF? Also, why wouldn't police actually enter the house after getting a report like that? There are so many…
The Cleveland police continue to to claim they did "everything they could". If it's true that both Berry and DeJesus knew their captor, and were found less than three miles from where they were abducted, in the house of a known violent criminal who had links to both of them, then it appears "Everything we could do."…
I could've phrased that universal third person & had it maintain its truth, & managed to avoid you getting all snarky-huffyWell your protein rich lunches don't seem to do much to prevent you from sounding as ignorant as hell.
I think that "a middle ground of balanced, nutritious, vegetarian & omnivore options" sounds great! I also think it's living in a dream world. Maybe your school lunches were better than mine, but I can tell you that what was offered at my school was certainly not meals catered to "appeal to young children's palates."…
you do understand that this is a stock photo and has no connection whatsoever to the actual school menu, don't you?
People realize that is a stock photo right?
In their defense, the reason people think it was frivolous is because one of the largest multinational corporations on Earth threw its weight into blanketing the radio/television/internet with propaganda that said they didn't disfigure one of their customers, Americans are just litigious/greedy/too stupid to operate…
I can see where the authors of the book wanted to reassure kids that this stuff is fun and feels good so they aren't truamatized, I agree the phrasing was a bit blue.
I think that Where Did I Come From is a great read for children of all ages.
