You should, I don’t even know you but I think you’re a rockstar

I’m an actual K-12 teacher in a face-to-face/hybrid learning environment where students are only required to maintain a distance of 3 feet apart and they eat and shout and laugh with their masks off in the school cafeteria and our faculty was told to show up in person or quit. We haven’t been given the opportunity to…

Good fucking lord we’re all doomed.

You’d think California would start banning these types of festivals at this point.

Finally my moment in the sun! Let me set the stage: I was a bit of a princess back in the day: had never used a squat potty, peed in the woods, etc. My husband and I went to Myanmar for vacation and spent some time in Mrauk-O, which is like Bagan but in the Rakhine province (yes, of concentration camp fame) so no…

When someone treats everyone around them as if they were disposable, it’s naive and insane to think they won’t treat you like that one day.

Whatever André. I’m sure he sat quietly as she belittled, used and discarded many others. By all accounts, he’s just as much of a mean girl as she is but now that he’s been discarded he wants to complain? He wasted a lot of years and didn’t take advantage of many opportunities available to him. Now that he’s…

Nothing.

Nothing.

The article is more than a little tone deaf.

I’m hanging onto mine for dear life. Nobody knows how long this will go for. There’s talks of recurring stimulus payments, but I gotta plan for the worst. Even if they come through, I’ll be hanging onto those as well and only spending what I have to on food, rent and utilities. That being said, I’m in a pretty sweet…

... and offered to instead entertain us by doing a handstand walk from the top of the block all the way down. He did not.

“Didn’t know how to say something?” This is WAY past calling for politeness and delicacy. “How to” would be to pound on the fucking wall and yell “SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU INCONSIDERATE FUCKING COCKGOBLINS, OR I WILL CALL THE FUCKING POLICE.” Repeat as needed. If that doesn’t work, put in some ear plugs, duct tape your…

The one who stalked me. And the one who stalked me. And the one who stalked me.

Oh 100% when people tell me New Yorkers are rude I automatically assume that they were doing something stupid.

So about a decade ago, I had just started my second year of grad school at NYU- when I got a call from my mom that my uncle had had a horrible fall, was in the ICU and unlikely to live. I was really close with this uncle and absolutely devastated. All of my family lived on the west coast and I had no money to get home…

But it should be easily agreed upon that accumulating rental profit from the wages of people likely making far, far less than you is at best a tad questionable.

I have no issues with Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard owning a building and I think they’re being really good landlords by not charging rent for April. It’s decent and I wish my apartment complex would do the same.

I saved a 3-year-old from drowning at the Jersey shore last year.

I worked in Financial Aid for years. I can confirm...we once had some flexibility (not in the Lori Loughlin way, but for genuinely good deeds). This is amazing, though.

This is such a small thing, but it still sits with me. About 20 years ago, I was flying home with my garbage boyfriend after I’d brought him to meet my family for the first time at Thanksgiving. I now realize it was an emotionally and verbally abusive relationship, but at the time I just suffered constantly. On the…
