I used to like his podcast until he interviewed Greta Gerwig. He’s at his worst in that interview. It turned me off to him completely. He’s so rude and dismissive of her, but it’s obvious he’s only acting that way because he’s intimidated. I don’t like it when a podcast host lets their personal flaws get so front and…

I will be annoyed if Aquaria wins the whole thing. But Michelle and Ru just lose their shit when an arrogant, skinny, young person swans into view.

I tip whenever there’s room for it on a receipt or checkout screen. Only exception: retail. $1 or $2 isn’t that much of my total net worth and it adds up to something like $50 a year. That’s a small price to pay for basic decency. Yes, tipping is stupid, but it’s the system that’s in place now. Protesting by…

Yeah, what a “fucker,” running to literally the opposite side of the country and living in an unstable and unsafe situation for absolutely no reason! What a selfish child to leave his controlling father’s strict household!

The level of vitriol in your comment has earned you this condescension: child abuse is more…

MANY parents are not good. Stories like this remind me how blissfully unaware some people are of how common child abuse is.

“without notifying those who they *know* will worry about them”

Having been a teenager in Georgia who fled to the west coast at the earliest opportunity, it’s hard for me to not project like crazy all over this situation. But there’s just no way a kid does this for no reason at all. There aren’t many hippies in Georgia, but there certainly are some. If all he wanted was a little…

So basically what you’re saying is that because they’re hot they can’t be frauds?

Karl Lagerfeld hates women. Always has. Always will.

I have a one year old corgi happily chewing a treat at my feet right now, so I’d say it’s more like the BEGINNING OF AN ERA

I’m sorry a bad thing happened to you, but that isn’t a free license to treat everyone like they’re responsible for your emotions and owe you a discussion. If you hold a grudge after you get ghosted, you are a bad person.

How is blocking any different from ghosting

It is hilarious to see how much people like you want it both ways. Women take steps to protect themselves and they’re being rude. They don’t and they’re asking for it. Pick a side a stick with it.

One time a friend bailed on me the day before we were supposed to go to a concert and I listed the tickets on craigslist. I texted with a few people but none of them gave me a firm commitment, so I ended up giving the tickets to my hairstylist as a tip. One of the dudes I was texting with got back to me like an hour…

I will spend no more than two days trading messages with someone before suggesting we meet up. Great conversation in the virtual space is meaningless unless you want to keep the relationship there. Romantic chemistry is all about the physical connection.

Yeah I can’t tell if it’s just like a clinician being super factual or if an editor got in there and was like “make it more $alacious, bud.” There is one chapter in particular where the patient’s abuse is almost revealed like a sweeps-week shock plot. It’s not a perfect book by any means but I am finding it extremely…

I thought her name was Tommy

I am reading a book about trauma called “The Body Keeps the Score” (it’s very good but also extremely graphic in detailing specific traumatic situations and I would advise anyone considering reading it to approach with caution).

The festival (which sets its own ticket prices) isn’t footing the bill for her stage and aren’t paying her much, so how does she have anything to do with the price of concert tickets? The tickets cost that much because people are willing to pay it.

That’s the nice way of saying what I was going to say in this comment but used the shrug emoji instead.
