@equine__dentist It means she is a specific type of person in Hollywood who thinks she is the protagonist of the world and so believes in synchronicity and shit, and identifies with other important, bible-esque figures. I spent 2.5y in Hollywood proper and met several people just like this.

@amandadeibert My rape case was botched and thrown out, and I told my ex I was going to go to the press. He told me I couldn’t “bite the hand that feeds”. Guess whose case is headed for trial.

@emrazz Can you imagine saying something like "I hate when drivers don't yield to bicyclists" and immediately a stranger jumps down your throat and says "NOT ALL DRIVERS!!" It sounds ridiculous because it is. We're numb to "not all men" objections.

@MariaOr52992782 @KaeleyT It doesn't seem like it. If your hobby of tearing down overweight people so much your personality that you'd even put it in your bio, I feel sorry for you. Only people in a lot of pain act that way, and put up nonchalance like that. I hope you stop focusing on other ppl so much.

@Rrrrnessa A simple accommodation would be allowing an employee who sometimes runs 10m late to clock out 10m late and do the same shift time. There are accomodations that exist for many situations and I think "that seems impossible" isn't always the best reaction to have right off the bat.

#MeAt14 - I want to tell you a story. By age 13, I was 5'9" and had D cups. I moved to university at 16. I was financially independent by 17. But as independent, mature, and grown-up as I was, it took years to realize what grooming looked like... because I WAS STILL A KID!

@sivori 1. It's not a "burn the boats" situation. My parents divorced and it was pretty amicable according to both, and they still text occasionally to say hi and talk about us 25 years later. 2. You can't know you or someone won't change later, so you can't know you'll never divorce.

@tonialbiach @sshesanangel Yes and no. It’s a capitalism and patriarchy issue more than anything. Can’t blame women for wanting to delay aging when women are devalued the older they get. It’s social power in a society that penalizes us for not conforming.

@CarolineMoss Every emotion, chemically-speaking, lasts 90 seconds. If you keep engaging, the emotion will continue to "fire" and reset this. If you distract yourself, you can deactivate the initial reaction. This is helpful in processing trauma, in particular/ why grounding techniques work.
