I don’t think you’re overthinking this; I 1000000% agree. This makes me super uncomfortable too. I can’t imagine living through sexual abuse only for my experiences to be used as a prop in an internet meme. Even though it’s mocking Josh (which I’m quite fine with!) it diminishes the sisters’ personhood and experiences.

I don’t know, I’m kind of uncomfortable making his sisters a part of an Internet meme, even if it is to make fun of him for being a hypocritical asshole. They’re victims of childhood sexual abuse in a cult that has told them from birth that they are worthless because of their gender.

In my supermarket they slapped a sign above the Lean Cuisines that says “Meals For One” and the tone just feels really judgey.

Seriously, this ad was totally tailored to my power suit wearing mom in 1990. Which explains why we suddenly had a lot of Lean Cuisines in my house.

I am pretty sure that's a Joan Rivers one-liner.

reminds me of our girl Angela and Marc Jacobs

ALso, when are we getting a series about the Boxcar Children? Those books were the shit when I was in first grade. AND the Magic Treehouse books as well. Give me all the series about books I read in kindergarten/first grade.

My mom, who identifies as Black and Mexican, recently got her DNA analyzed and found a surprising amount of British DNA. We know the black side of our family comes from Georgia and Louisiana (and also Nigeria and Senegal it turns out), but finding that British ancestry kind of shocked her into thinking about slavery…

Sure. But it’s still the old “If 1 in every 100 M&Ms were poisoned, would you eat M&Ms?” conundrum. Every woman I know has a story about a boyfriend or date who either tried to stalk them or got creepy/violent at the end of the relationship.

Oh, please. You do this all the time. Anyone can click your comment history and see what I’m talking about. You always start with a “just wondering” and when people argue you (often with more civility than you deserve), you reveal yourself to be unwilling to hear anything that doesn’t support whatever fucked up…

Holy crap that is scary. I hate when someone knocks on my door when I’m not expecting any one. Once I asked who it was (I had been smoking so I was more paranoid than usual and too scared to look through the peephole, ha) and he sounded so weird that I wouldn’t open the door. I was like, wrong apt bye!!

That’s this dude’s MO. He is a concern troll who’s always “genuinely asking.” Pretty sure it was him arguing that the victim in the Brooklyn gang rape was possibly raping her attackers because she’s 18 and they’re minors. Disgusting.

You get how victim blamey this question is, don’t you?

Whelp, this is the first time this year I’ve had to break this one out.
