Emma doesn’t have your attention, yet somehow you focused on them enough to read this article and make some bullshit comment. Oh, and you’ve worked with trauma survivors, you must know more about trauma than anyone!! Emma actually experienced trauma, and however they chose to process and make meaning of that trauma,…

This is a feminist blog. Not an art blog. The article focused on Emma because they are an artist getting attention because of their feminist social messages regarding rape, prior to and in light of #Metoo. It didn’t really comment on their talent as an artist or the artistic value in their work, which is subjective…

no, of course THEY do. get over it

Hi! Yes, I did, I’m at work so I can basically only comment in spurts and after submitting the first comment I realized I’d forgotten part of what I wanted to say and added the second paragraph re: Chuck Close. Sorry I didn’t add an ETA, I’m usually in such a hurry to edit before the time window closes that I totally…

FYI: Emma uses they/them pronouns.

Yes, sometimes art, like life, is grotesque.

I randomly stumbled into “The Floating World” a few weeks ago while wandering around that part of Brooklyn. I dug it quite a bit.

She is a true artist and total game changer for the movement. It’s so so telling how quickly the rightwing media was desperate to forget her. Wonder why that is.

About a year ago, whilst trying to figure out how to get my husband to agree that our marriage actually has failed, I read an article called something like “30 People Tell Us The Moment They Knew Their Marriage Was Over.” Straight marriages, btw.

My ex and I had been in therapy and he still said he felt ambushed when I left!

I think men are too stupid to realize that when a woman stops fighting, it’s not because everything’s fine now, it’s because she’s given up and is getting ready to go. They think it stops because she’s gotten over it or something. Nah, dude, she’s got one foot out the door and the other on a banana peel.

I literally told my husband “I think I want a divorce” ONE YEAR before I finally moved out and we separated. The entire ONE YEAR he did absolutely nothing to address the situation until two weeks before I moved out. Then he suddenly thought we could turn things around if “we” worked really, really hard.

it’s so depressing seeing this here. It’s not the first time, obviously, but it’s always depressing.

Not to mention this entire article, which is essentially “aging woman, no one wants to f**k you any more. Why are you still talking?”

Finally a novel take: aging woman doesn’t look the way I want her to!

This. I can totally relate. I have mentioned before on here that I am just out of a five year relationship that ended in December. We had only been living together a year but together fpr 5 when I ended things. He said he didn’t see it coming but I had literally been talking to him about our problems for two years. He…

Oh my gosh you have to be kidding about the legislation. I’m not...surprised... having grown up in the South, but I am horrified.

I don’t know, the stuff Kathy Griffin went through with Interpol, etc. sounds pretty traumatizing. If she wants to continue to talk about it, I’m okay with that.
