Pictures like this further alienate, demonize, and shame addicts. They don’t promote any sort of productive discussion.

Yup. Shame only makes it worse.

This is the book that started my career as a nerd so to see a girl that looks like me in the lead role beyond awesome.

No. But her cat, Kitty Purry? Maybe.

Your library probably cobbled together a chick lit section because that is what people commonly borrow from that branch and it makes it easy for the patron to find new books. In another branch, the same books would likely be found in general fiction. My former job did the same for “urban lit”. The titles aren’t great…

I mean, I don’t think you need to completely get it.

Yeah, I mean, her audience isn’t the type that takes too kindly to insulting Oprah.

I really love her and her strong voice as a survivor inspires me to be more open about my own assault (I actually told a friend I’ve know since 4th grade about my assault this weekend).

I looked it up and apparently, David stated on Kocktails with Khloe that Alexis stopped referring to themselves as as trans and said that they were gender suspicious and used male or female pronouns based on how they were dressed. I imagine that the choices in the statement were purposeful and respectful of Alexis’…

Is that supposed to be an homage to Italian horror movie, Suspiria?

I use Scott because that is what my parents bought when I lived with them and I’ve never thought to venture into new territory.

But her job had no problem with her clothing. Some random asshole making it seem like she was prioritizing her “hip outfit” over a horrible murder of a kid when that is what she always wears is really fucking shitty.

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that a scumbag rapist would incorporate bragging about his dick into his excuse.

Age doesn’t negate race. It’s probably both.
