It's not even Baker's Twine - it's Butcher's Twine! This is Baker's Twine:

Gender undefined pronouns for subject & object/possessive:

She did say "at once" so I took that to mean at once. Let's not begrudge this lady her 4some

That would be a foursome. And where did she say men?

I just posted about a similar situation that happened to my bff (she was the child in the situation, not the mom, although she is a mom now.) Abusers are master manipulators. Psychopathic manipulators who use brain washing techniques to control parents and children. June probably believes he did nothing wrong, and…

Also, that Onion piece reads like straight up cultural criticism today, two years after it was written.

My best friend's mom started up again with my bf's abuser after some time had passed. He never went to prison, because it was settled out of court, but he's a registered sex offender still & my best friend's mom (an elementary school teacher) had to leave her home because of his record. My best friend and her mom…

I was totally with you until I thought about it a more (way too much, actually.)

Someone said this yesterday, but #gamergate aren't just a hate group, they are a terrorist group & should be treated as such.

I think what you are trying to say is "People, be careful with your stuff on cloud servers. If we've learned anything useful from all this terrible, it's that cloud storage isn't secure." If you had said it that way, no one gets blamed, it might help people who haven't been hacked yet, etc.

I grew up with an abusive father (who I also love dearly) and discovering this idea of the "waiting time" being stressful was so important for me in dealing with relationships and finding a healthy one. A lot of abusive men (and women) claim that the victim "intentionally" set them off - doing something the victim…

I do harbor secret, unspoken wishes that some of my friends will change their mind and have kids because the experience of it is really unimaginable. It comes from a place of, "I wish everyone could have the opportunity to feel this way" kinda thing.

Both my Grandmother and my Aunt have told me they regretted becoming mothers. It has played a huge role in my decision not to have kids, especially in the face of my mom who desperately wants grandkids (which, ironically, my Aunt and Grandmother both have tons of). I do not think they have told this to their actual…

The culture, as a whole, sanctifies parenthood, and motherhood in particular. And I think a lot of women internalize this, regardless of their politics, and are able endure the suffering and deprivation they feel as mothers because they think of it as a noble, selfless, calling. Which is fine; thinking you life…

Wow. I am pretty adamantly childless for myself, but I would never ever say to a friend "I can't believe you guys chose to have a child." That's shitty.

pushing back on the decision I am happy with making strikes me as a little disingenuous and often makes me feel like some childless people really aren't all that thrilled with their decision. Like, why so defensive? You know

Yeah, I realize this. But I don't understand it. My friends and I all babysat as teens, and these same friends would never leave a teen in charge of a kid (and even teens charge a good deal of money these days.) But, the friends I'm talking about who have kids now also have a good amount of money. And family…

I'm trying to find something redeeming and, um, I think this pattern is really pretty...

I've realized anytime somebody I know has a kid I feel slightly betrayed because everything about our relationship is forever changed.

I have never read the books, and so in my mind there is no question! Team Frank all the way! Jamie seems like a dopey beefcake. Give me a wirey intellectual with sad eyes who's great in the sack!
