This is so gross and fat phobic. This is a famous woman, who makes her art for a living, and *is happy*.

She is not the person I pity in this conversation.

I’m not sure what more you want, but this is what a relationship between consenting adults who posses access to their full emotional spectrum looks like.

Learn. To. Read.

The conversation around his ability to be monogamous happened while they were broken up, before they were married. He was honest about his capacity, and she made a decision, as a grown person, to partner this person.

She is also happy.

Far-right extremists keep co-opting Norse symbolism – here’s why Norse symbols and references to Valhalla repeatedly show up the manifestos of far right terrorists. An expert explains why.

Sigh. Well now I feel sad for you, too.

Lindy West is happy. I don’t know why you feel the need to turn her into a victim of sexual abuse when she is, herself, expressing gratitude and joy for her life. It’s very weird.

What happened to ‘believe women’?

There are so many ways that people victimize each other, we don’t need to imagine more to feel safe ourselves. I don’t believe it is helpful or healthy to fantasize about perceived victimhood when the person in question isn’t having that experience.

That is a very sad understanding of two people expressing their needs to each other.

The author is telling you she is happy, joyful even, that this is her life. You could believe her.

Like what happened to ‘believe women’? Taking her at her word is also an option!

The comments on this post fucking suck. They are fat-phobic, fearful, and scream a lack of reading comprehension.

It is absurd to witness a bunch of strangers fantasize about this happy woman, turning her into a victim in their own imaginations, as opposed to just a person living a full life.

Did you read the article? He never gave her an ultimatum. He shared who he is during a break up, long before they were married. That’s normal, healthy, adult human communication, and you all are being very weird in trying to turn this happy person into a victim in your imagination.

The other option is that you could just believe her? That she is the author of her own experience and having a blast?

Her husband came out as non-monogamous before they were married, while they were broken up. No forcing. Your response feels very reactionary to me, and makes *me* sad for *you*.

I don’t know… everything in the Bible points to G*d being exactly the kind of divine being that is arrogant enough to sit down for a Chotiner interview.

Corporate Media Buries Story of US and Israel Killing 168 in Girls School Attack No front-page stories in NYT, WSJ, WaPo. No mention on NBC and CBS Sunday Shows. No stand alone segments on Evening News shows. A death count on par with the OKC bombing is relegated to the back page.

I wrote about how the US and Israel carried out an attack on an Iranian girls school on par with the OKC bombing and US media relegated it to a back page story. No stand alone evening news segments, no front page stories, it made A11 in the NYT then everyone moved on.

The kid had a poster of a school shooter on his bedroom wall and his dad gifted him a rifle anyway…

For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were.

These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War.
Capt. Cody A. Khork, 35
Sgt. 1st Class Noah L. Tietjens, 42
Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39
Sgt. Declan J. Coady, 20

So gross. These people don’t believe in leadership, only money. Maybe these are popular with young men, but should they be?? These are all life destroying technologies that melt any sense of self. A good leader would help people understand that.

I know FCC regulation isn’t the sexiest topic in the world but I need y’all to watch this because we are on the cusp of having official state media controlled solely by Donald Trump and corporate media is ignoring it. This is how autocracy comes to power. youtube.com/shorts/Z8Fwo...

As the laid off Middle East News Editor, I concur. Management eliminated the positions of every single staff correspondent and bureau chief in the Middle East.
