Thoughts and prayers.

Well, the pancake maker only read about the accusation of assault and offered support by saying Deen showed his true colors.  She made her accusation of assault on a Tuesday - which is cereal day in most houses.

Maybe I am the minority but I prefer women who don’t like makeup. The excuse that makeup helps build confidence is a lie in every way imaginable.

That’s not remotely what intersectionalism is.

Yeah, it’s sort of like the “just obey the law,” arguments that people make before cops kill a PoC. We all know nobody makes those arguments, right? /s

I think the whole thing sounds to be handled very badly. Just firing them straight. Even if you don’t agree with what she was writing I can not see how it would warrant you losing your job.

Alimony goes both ways. It’s not just something dudes pay out.

you’re right, and I’m wondering why I bothered to post. The pairing with a panda video put it over the top for me. I would also note that I’m usually in the grays and I suspect that my post was promoted or whatever because it causes more controversy and so, more comments/clicks. So I’m just feeding the engine... ugh.

Ok, but anybody who actually gives a damn about diabled people already read 20 variations of this rant when they signed on Facebook. This isn’t some fringe nitpick, you are repeating what the disabled community has been loudly screaming for years. At a certain point you have to realize the difference between somebody…

I just can’t imagine being in that situation and having everyone fall all over themselves patting each other on the back for talking to me.

with you on this. (as a disabled person.)

From what I can tell this is not a story of someone “helping” a disabled person but just a story of a deafblind person having a conversation. Gawking at it, especially when you directly compare this to watching a video of cute pandas, is inspiration porn and objectification. Do you realize that disabled people have…

“Many years ago, I bought my first iPad, an iPad 2. Hated it. It was heavy. The screen sucked. I couldn’t figure out how or why to use it.”

It’s cheaper because they have downgraded the most important part, the screen. It is now a non laminated screen. Previous models, such as the excellent iPad air series, had a much better screen because they had laminated screens. This new screen on this new ipad doesn’t look as good, doesn’t feel as good either and…

@BytheSea: The only way she helped anyone was by being brave enough to admit she was wrong.

@Cairn Awaits MizJenkins: False memories are NOT lies.

@BytheSea: Believing something and being wrong isn't the same as "crying wolf."

@mich7988: I'm kinda sorta going through the same thing right now and my counselor said, I think, the best thing she could have to me. Basically, in her experience repressed memories come to the surface when the person is emotionally ready and has the tools to process the information. And until that time (if it does…

Okay. I'm not sure if this is the appropriate venue or what, but at least I'm anonymous here. I'm 22. I have borderline personality disorder. I have problems with self-injury, food, depression, and anxiety. My mother was emotionally abusive. I've been in therapy for a long time with a variety of therapists.

@Pierce Nichols: How "should" she have known they were false?
