The High Woman In The Castle

In elementary school, I had this terrible teacher, Mr. Long. He was a dick who clearly had anger management issues and a palpable dislike of children. Lest you think he was some holdover from the days when no one cared what went on in classrooms, he was 25. We were his second class after completing his bachelor’s and

Even before this movie came out, I thought the idea of living with a complete stranger was the most unsafe thing in the world. Whereas when I wanted a one bedroom in college, my high anxiety mother thought that included three roommates. No...

Something, something bad apples!

You're making me think of Seth Cohen from The OC. And I never bought that he was a loser with no friends. I never bought that someone that funny and witty would be friendless. I'd date that guy. 

And then he’ll brag about your sex life to the press after you split. ;)

Megan perfectly explained why I don’t want to call the police anymore. Even if I don’t see a Black person during an emergency, I worry the police will encounter one and start shooting.

Okay, Meghan, but white women made up about 50% of Trump's votes. I do not have the faith that you do. 

I blame it on algebra lovers. 

Thank you. This story isn’t even funny or indictive of one’s youth. It’s bigoted, insecure, and stupid.

To show that as long as men think they’re superior to women only because of what hangs between their legs, then they are itching to be taken advantage of. For it is their arrogance and false sense of superiority that will blind their defenses.

And we will find out. We always do. Low self-esteem. Mommy issues. Ex issues. Drama. Anxiety. Controlling nature. Possessiveness. Anger. Jealousy. Entitlement. Paranoia.

The Washington Post comments section was horrible. “Well she raps about violence so she shouldn’t be surprised that she got shot.”

I had no idea people would be so passionate about algebra homework!

But they did my work for me! 

Oh I knew how to do it. I just didn't want to. 

Oh that's exactly what I think happened. If he hadn't heard the objection from the British superiors, I'm confident we never would have heard this bullshit story. We'd be hearing another one. 

Lest you all think this is a joke, it is not!

Ladies, ladies, toxic masculinity isn’t going away anytime soon so we should make it work for us!

Do you ever freak out when they call your name? I'm scrambling to make up a bullshit answer or repeat what the person said before me.
