In a world where beauty can be purchased, how is a family with this much money still so ugly?

Thankfully, the Germans have a word for what I am feeling right now.

I just came here to say that anyone- even Nancy- will be missing out if they do not see this movie. It is brilliant.

I remember hearing that Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny did not get along all that well initially, but their chemistry- even in the first season- is phenomenal.

I’ve been afraid to tell this story, so I’m just going to drop it here in the replies to your comment, because I think you will understand and I am still afraid to speak of it directly.

Came here to say this exact thing. I may not buy it, or listen to it, or even understand it at all, but she is a goddamn treasure and questioning her artistic choices is like criticizing the sky for being too blue.

I get why the justice system has to be objective, but I am not a court of law. I’m an individual who has to sometimes make difficult choices to protect myself or other women. I’m not obligated to be impartial. I’m going to err on the side of believing victims because, the unpleasant truth is,men actually do this shit…

Also, we can reply to trolls without un-greying them now, in case it looks like I am arguing with myself.

I have never been on the receiving end because I don’t fucking harass people and people don’t make stories like that up out of thin air. If the accusations are baseless, they will collapse under a modicum of scrutiny. Hell, even if I DO go around harassing people, there’s little to no chance I’d ever see consequences.…

I agree- something about him has always seemed off to me. Even when I found myself laughing at one of his jokes, I would somehow feel gross because of it. I’m beginning to see that this “seems off” thing is common among men who use feminism as a smokescreen for their abusive behavior.

I’ve come to a point where I have decided to believe ALL rumors of sexual assault and harassment. I’d rather side with a victim and be proved wrong than leap to the defense of a predator in the name of lofty ideals like “fairness”, thereby making it more difficult for women to come forward. There is nothing fair about…

I think a lot of women can relate when I say that as a survivor of sexual violence, the last few weeks have been so triggering for me, I’m just dry-firing at this point. It would be nice to see even one of these shit-bags face serious consequences, but I’ve lost all faith in human institutions.

I’ve started doing that out of habit after being challenged by so many Mormons when I dare to say anything less than glowing- or even something benign but kind of silly- about their religion. They demand to know how you know these things. Dropping phrases like “Jello Belt” “Fireside” and “Temple Recommend” usually…

I honestly couldn’t say. Being a godless heathen, I have never had a reason to go inside. I don’t particularly care for Caucasian Jesus paintings.

Oh, Magic Mormon undergarments totally exist. Sometimes they display them on headless mannequins in the Desert Books shop windows. Source: Resident of “the Jello Belt” for many years.

I adore Bjork! She’s so delightfully strange, and so original no one can even attempt to copy her. I am not entirely convinced that she is native to this planet.

“Look how cute I am when I cry! #prettycrying”

This is lovely. Who is this? I have a soft spot for French female vocalists.

I may be in a embittered, embattled and existential state of mind myself, but I laughed so hard watching this.
