Part of it's a projection issue. She's mildly overweight - repeat, mildly, you couldn't even describe her as "fat" if you were feeling uncharitable - and has trouble handling that. Read more

It's the last group it's completely ok to publicly talk shit about. Read more
I would describe myself as overweight, but not obese. I just don't like hearing it, mainly. Read more
Ok, I feel like I should note: she's not doing this to ME. She just does it with people in public. Read more
Sounds like you got out of that relationship at the right time. Read more
It's her one failing; I think I can deal. Read more
Except, the last one you wrote is a real word. Shekels were a type of currency, and they're currently shorthand for small change in general. ;-) Read more
I'm getting really sick and tired of the anti-fat people shit I keep hearing not just nationally, but from people I'm close to. I grew up with it from my father, but recently it's been my girlfriend - and no matter how many times I tell her it isn't fucking ok, she keeps doing it. Read more
Sweden, almost unquestionably. Read more
Nope. It was perfectly healthy; no one else got sick. It was too healthy for my body to handle. Read more

What would you think of Tammy Baldwin if I told you she was being mind-controlled by crab people bent on giving everyone abortions and forcing humanity to get gay-married? Read more
This was the Bush campaign during the South Carolina primary - this is a Rove/Atwater tactic all the way. It's Exhibit A in answering "how is Karl Rove a fucking sociopath?" Read more
This article is just beyond fascinating to me, because there's SO much to unpack. Consent vs. rape culture, racism, victim-blaming, gendered double standards/gender roles, homophobia...not to minimize this at all (because I'm genuinely invested in this story), but I feel like this article single-handedly wins at… Read more
Toe be fair, that's not this article's reaction; the article does a good job of this, I think. Read more
You need a Turkey Throne upon which you can sit as the Empress of Turkey. All shall gobble before the might of your Intergalactic Poultry Empire. Read more
EmpressZombie has some serious personal persecution issues and is projecting them onto this case. She's also from the Mediterranean and lives in the UK, so there's some pretty heavy implicit bias. She's yet to provide a single piece of actual evidence other than "her story keeps changing" - which isn't even true, as… Read more
