My parents have been married since 1971. They argue forty to fifty times a day. I'm not exaggerating.

It’s the fact that she inserted herself into the convo that makes her vile to me. I think I’ve actually got pretty accepting attitudes to infidelity — it’s an unfortunate fact of life that sometimes two people fall for each other and their original partners inevitably get hurt, so as long as you don’t lie for a long…

And people wonder why a woman would just stay with her abuser.

Same in Australia but make it Saturday morning and add in a sausage sizzle and the Sex Party

I don't like parties either, but I guess I consider loyalty to be the responsibility I don't have/want. I get both sides on this one.

Idk, while I understand your feelings, and am also an independent (not American) voter, it kind of feels like when a deadbeat dad only sees his kid at Christmas then gets confused about why he doesn't have a say in where they go to college. Personally I feel like I don't take on the responsibility of being a party…

Right. I had a drunk guy wander into my apartment at 3am once, but he definitely did not come into my room and attack me. He stumbled around the foyer for at least a minute trying to get his shoes off and when I came out to see wtf was going on he just stared at me in abject, pathetic confusion while I tried to…

My friend is going through something similar. Her housemate is being followed by a guy she had a very brief flirtation five years ago. He kept leaving anonymous gifts outside her house and showing up outside her work. She eventually got an AVO (apprehended violence order), which he chose not to fight. As part of the…

If anything it’s the opposite — even when she was dating lots of different people most people I know patronisingly regarded it the way you do a boy-crazy 13 year old. I don’t think the idea that she was “slutty” ever even entered people’s minds.

Good point :(

That's true, his moderate success could have slowly gone to his head.

I can't see Whedon working with him repeatedly if he was an asshole. He always seems to choose his casts based at least partially on who is most fun to have around on set.

I always instinctively disliked him for no reason and the stupid SS antics have finally given me a legit excuse

In general I would agree but having been involved with intense celebrity fandoms I think hardcore Beyoncé fans would pay for the info. So in this specific case I think the mag thought they’d give it a shot.

Healesville Sanctuary in Melbourne, Australia (which is part of Zoos Victoria group) ran a very extensive breeding program to protect the Tasmanian Devil from going extinct. The Devil population in Tasmania was ravaged by a facial tumour virus and mainland zoos are slowly introducing healthy Devils back into Tasmania…

I completely agree. I love my local zoos, who are extremely active not just in animal welfare and conservation but also in environmental conservation generally, but I've been to other zoos that are shady as hell. In general if they've got humans in with the tigers it sends up a huge red flag to me.

I'm against fur generally but it hurts especially to know that multiple animals died to make something so ugly

From the magazine’s perspective it's a way of bullying readers into subscribing, which is why I believe they made the call and not Beyoncé. They have much clearer financial motivations — if you wanna know what Beyoncé is wearing you're gonna have to cough up. Totally unfair for the supplier.

I find it hard to believe because I think Beyoncé’s team would have had to approve the content before it was even published, it wouldn't have gone up and then been changed later.

There are naturally blonde part-Japanese people. I don’t watch Digimon but Google tells me Matt’s grandfather was French.
