Thank you! I love this guy.

Did you not read the bit about how even talking about it is taboo? Call em Care Bears if it improves lives. If people are freely able to talk about them they are more likely to you know....use them...make more....etc.

Actually rate of false rape accusations is less than a percent. It's stats are funky because an incredibly high number of people don't report because of bullshit like this.

50 comments here, 650 on the article supporting people who have shitty moms. Are we as a group deeply fucked up? Is Gawker Media some sort of magnet for people with sad histories?

I'm so sorry. You are not alone!

It's the golden child/scape goat dynamic. One of my sisters has always been the GC on our dads side of the family. When grandfather died he could no longer enforce that and she is being treated as shittily as I always have been. She was shocked! I've been vocal about it for 20 years. :(

A few months ago, there was an article about that woman who was complaining that her sons don’t talk to her anymore and it was all just gross and manipulative. Some people in the comments mention a reddit sub called raisedbynarcissists. Even if you loathe reddit (like me) I would check it out. Lots of people on there…

Yup. I’m 2 year with no contact, I spend Christmas drinking and Mother’s Day hiding in my house. I am so lucky that my bf doesn’t pull that “but she’s your mother!” bullshit.

Find a zydeco song! A la Designing Women and the funeral for the guy with AIDS. Joy and sadness mingling together with some sweet horns.

Motion that everyone moves the fuck out of NYC and supports small businesses owned by women in other parts of the country. Makes an equal amount of sense.

Oh well then. How nice that it wasn't a burden for you. How convenient. How privileged. You people are the WORST. I take six months to get comfortable before I have a new tattoo applied, do I get to force other people to wait six months? No? Amazing. It's almost like your fucking experience isn't fucking universal. I…

It is the hair dressers job to make YOU comfortable, not the other way around. I do not get layers and I do not make small talk. Anyone that tries to make those things happen is a bad service provider.

Well said!

I had that Sassy cover on my wall. Courtney reminded me of my little sister because of the picture of her as a little girl in the cassette liner of that purple Hole album. She's a fucked up human being and she's made a lot of mistakes. But I still have this feeling of connection with her.

He's like an opera singer. Between the rifuckingdiculous breath control and the way he uses his words as an instrument. Words as opposed to voice, because he speaks like a musical instrument. My mind is too blown to describe this. Amazing. A-MAZ-ING!

“Nice”

Totally off topic, but what Sun Valley? I know Idaho and the meth happy one just north of Reno, but these aren't warm for 8 months.

Had no idea. Wow. Eleventy million times better.

My mother was a bad kid in the 70s. Dropped out of high school and rode a motorcycle to San Francisco. Damn near got arrested multiple times at bars because her license picture looked very much like Patty Hearst. So she decided to make sure I would never be allowed any freedom. I started drinking and doing drugs at…

Thanks to Claudette Colbert and The Palm Beach Story, I know that that’s “bracelet length" for showing off your jewels. I'm for it! More jewels for Johnny!
