“I can only surmise [the allegations] are surfacing now for the first time, decades later, as part of a concerted effort by others to destroy my name, my reputation, and my career,” he told Ronan Farrow.

“He says that the allegations, which stretch from the ‘80s to the early aughts, are part of an organized conspiracy.”

Who the hell pulls out their penis at a 9am meeting? How gauche!

Wait

As someone who has gotten all his lie detector test information from crime serials, I understand the key to bluffing the test involves clenching and unclenching one’s asshole. Pence is doomed; he’s never unclenched in his life.

I wasn’t phased by the first 2 calls, but the third one I found perplexing. It’s a grand slam final and a player is venting—and not even aggressively—after a bad run. It was annoying and Serena should have left it alone, but I don’t think it rose to the level of a code violation. Both Serena and Ramos had options…

I’m usually 100% behind Serena but this was a shit show of her own making. Every penalty was the right call. Her coach was illegally coaching and admitted as much (though it was obvious anyway). Breaking a racket and a rant like that, directly accusing the ump of cheating or ulterior motives, gets infractions. The…

Considering lie detector tests are bullshit and don’t actually work make that offer worthless.

The reporter tried to get her to speak on her Japanese heritage and what it was like living in America and Osaka told her that she was raised in an Haitian household with her Japanese mother and she lives in America.  She looked like she’s had to break that ish down more than once.  

Was done for practical purposes living in Japan. It is not uncommon. Imagine a Japanese girl living in Japan named Francois. Not even getting into the dark skinned yet

Seems like the tennis circuit is trying to push Serena out, especially since she had her daughter. Too much like the corporate world. I don’t know jack about tennis but every time I read about Serena it’s more about fines and unscheduled drug tests than about her abilities. I smell some bs. 

Many people are saying that Osaka would have beaten Williams in the 3rd set. That’s not the point.

My ex was a drug addict. He did some horrible things, and ultimately went to jail. I was relieved about that, because he was abusive. He got out of jail, and seemingly got his life together; he’d gotten clean, got his first steady job, met a nice girl, and then one day he had a single relapse and overdosed.

All the love to you. I’ve spilled my guts a few times on this site- long story short in the early ‘90s Mr Mars and I became what were called at the time “hope to die” heroin addicts. We lost everything (except each other) and survived a couple bad years on the streets. The one thing that finally got us clean was a…

My sister doesn’t have an addiction problem, but she does have mental health problems. We’d know what they are if she ever went to a damn therapist, but because she knows that’s what we want, she proudly refuses.

This is an accurate description of what it’s like to date someone with mental illness. I failed two college courses because my ex needed a 24-7 therapist and could not be alone. He hijacked my life, my brain, my dorm room, and my academics. Despite my every effort, nothing changed. He never got better.

My late husband was an alcoholic. I told him to get help, or I would take the kids and leave him. He committed suicide 36 hours later. I still thank god that it was me, rather than the kids, who found his body.

People did this to me with my kids’ dad. If I had only... why didn’t you.. His older sister told the older kids that I messed him up and that pushed him over the edge. The woman that he lived with for 7-8 years after we split up told the youngest that he was just so upset that he couldn’t be with his family that he…

This scenario is all too familiar to me. My ex boyfriend tried to overdose while I was on the other side of the world and rang me to tell me what he had done and how it was all my fault. Big hugs from an internet stranger.

No one ever talks about how often dating somebody who has mental illness can truly become of them or me scenario… Where you feel like you’re going to be destroyed if you stay, but you feel like you’re going to destroy them if you leave. It takes an enormous amount of strength and courage and love to be “selfish” enough…
