Yep, while she just lived in straight up denial until somebody she knew saw him kissing another woman and told her.

Yeah, that quote is unintentionally so sad

Maybe she's genuinely happy in all of this, but if this is the glossy soft focus version she's presenting to the world and it's got this many red flags, that's not a good sign.

I just remember when she got married, she made a big deal about deserving the fairy tale wedding and not settling for a guy who won't celebrate you, only now she's talking about it as something that he didn't even really want, and this triad thing feels like she's convincing herself in the same way.

Yeah, that seems to be the usual dynamic unless both parties go into the relationship with an understanding that they're not into monogamy from the get go. Or at least the ones who successfully open up their relationship without it being a dumpster fire never talk about it online.

Yeah, that's not exactly a sign of ethical nonmonogamy on his part

Uhh, the way she tells this is full of red flags and sounds an awful lot like her husband taking advantage of her insecurities about her body to maneuver her into going along with something that she wouldn't have otherwise. Even how she talks about her wedding as something he did to humor her is sad

Yeah, the way she tells it sounds an awful lot like he used her insecurities about her body to maneuver her around into going along with his threesome fantasies and convince her it was her idea all along. Which might not be true, but it's still red flag city.

Y'all ever read something and just think "babe are you sure you're poly because it sounds like maybe you'd be better off just divorcing this dude"

Okay hear me put: We admit Puerto Rico as a state, and then just lie to Ohio about which star they are on the flag.

correct

there is no reason for a single one of them to vote for Mullin (yes, Mr. Fetterman, that means you) and they should make this as embarrassing as possible - which, given Mullin’s extensive track record of putting his foot in his mouth, shouldn’t even be that hard

the thing about “we’re not going through the strait of hormuz because we might get hit by missiles” is that even if you do actually take out Iran’s capacity to do that you’ve gotta convince the people actually piloting the ships that it’s safe

and this is not exactly the most trustworthy group

An original Nashville sit-in member, along with Diane Nash, James Bevel, and John Lewis. Trained in non-violence by James Lawson. At age 21, he signed a will before the Freedom Rides, knowing he could die.

May his soul be at peace, and may we all have such courage in the face of oppression.

He’s going to be in for a rude awakening when he realizes people in the party really hate his guts and don’t give a shit what he has to say.

He should retire and go enjoy his money. Leave us alone.

My grandfather's dress uniform coat was really small, and he had it better than a lot of people because his older sister who raised him had a steady decently paying job at the Hershey factory laundry throughout the Depression.

This stupid fucking meme has got body shape exactly backwards. Half the fuckin population had just spent the better part of a decade being extra malnourished in the 40s while today even pogs get addicted to lifting and creatine

Anytime this comes up I play this video from the battle of Aachen in October, 1944. Just compare how big the weapons they are lugging to how big they are (spoiler, they are not very big)
