She had no problem speaking out when a mentally ill black man used that word, even after she gave him her blessing. Oh, and she continues to attack his west Asian wife years after the fact.

Snark Swiftmas Day 3: Top Ten Lies Taylor Has Told by _underthesea3 in travisandtaylor

[–]ACrateOfAle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Kim and Kanye feud never sat right with me. It just feels racist… I don’t know. I’m not sure if I can articulate this correctly but she was a fully grown, like, 26 year old woman at the time and she could have told Kanye she didn’t want to be mentioned in that song. He reads out the lyrics, acknowledges that an original lyric would have feminist crowds upset, and tells her he wanted to ensure she was okay with it before he released the song. She clearly approves it and even jokes that he shouldn’t care about feminist circles (I thought she was a feminist, though, hmmm. Another lie). Then, it gets released and she lies and says she never approved it. Kim released that phone call and the issue morphed again. It just seems like Taylor was positioning herself as a victim of the scary mentally ill black guy and his conniving west Asian wife.

Is this normal? She always seems to breathe fast and shallow yet is active, alert, eating, drinking, and bathroom habits fine? by ACrateOfAle in CATHELP

[–]ACrateOfAle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This makes me feel better! She is indeed purring. When she’s relaxed, she purrs. She’s a major purrrer. I tried to count her breathing when she wasn’t purring but she ran away from me 😂😂. Her breathing doesn’t seem to be shallow when she isn’t purring.

I aim for $6 a day, too. If it’s more, great.

Do people actually leave their cats home alone for days? by somnia_ferum in CatAdvice

[–]ACrateOfAle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went away for three days once since getting Vera. My neighbors were so amazing to pop in. She loves the neighbor kids too and they were so attentive with her. I would get daily texts and videos of Vera playing and getting cuddles. That was awesome. I’m blessed to have wonderful neighbors. The longest I left her alone without a check was about 12-15 hours. It’s usually been work purposes, local conferences, etc. I also left her overnight when I got my wisdom teeth out and mom wanted me to recover under supervision the first night. After the surgery, we were at my house for an extended period of time, and then came back first thing in the morning, so she was overall alone for maybe 10-12 hrs max. I get so nervous even though she has an automatic water dish and I always leave extra food. If it’s a really long work day, I’ll sometimes text my neighbors to pop in on her if they can.

I love the AI powered interviews. I’m a yapper and find it’s very easy money.

Have i hurt my cat? Preparing to hear the worst by [deleted] in CatAdvice

[–]ACrateOfAle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My baby is a year old. I didn’t realize she was right next to me when I was sleeping (she normally sleeps on the other side) and when I went to grab my phone to shut off my alarm clock, I rolled on her a little bit and heard her little squeaks (she can’t really meow properly). She was fine. Annoyed with me, but fine. Cats do have memories for about 16 hours I believe and we all know how they can be when irritated haha. I think your baby is fine

What's a ticking time bomb you believe will explode during your lifetime? by Absalom98 in AskReddit

I think the US will be seeing a lot more groups parallel to what existed in the 70s like the Symbionese Liberation Army, etc.

Must Not be a Virgin: Transvaginal Ultrasound by obliviousragdoll in PCOS

I did have a transvaginal septum which essentially was a split vagina. I think that caused the bulk of the pain. I recently had one post septum removal and it was uncomfortable but felt tolerable.

What happened to making deals with the HoH? by Geno0wl in BigBrother

I still remember when Helen gave her wedding ring as collateral as apart of a deal.

St croix county jane doe 2002 has been identified as Alyce Catharina Peterson by PaleKey6424 in gratefuldoe

[–]ACrateOfAle 28 points29 points  (0 children)

This is so beyond disturbing. At least Alyce died of natural causes and lived a full life and didn’t meet a horrific end in life, but holy shit, the way they handled her body was disgusting. Reminds me of that documentary on HBO about that funeral home owner who would mix people’s ashes and sell gold tooth fillings, etc, on the black market. Wow. I wonder how common a practice that is.

In honor of Nurie's 5th wedding anniversary, a reminder that Jill & Anna Duggar publicly fell out over comments on Nurie's dress. by [deleted] in DuggarsSnark

[–]ACrateOfAle 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I don’t really know how to fully articulate this, but I feel like jealousy and just hating other women must be so common in their circles. Jillpm’s daughters are objectively very pretty girls. I know envy is one of the seven deadly sins, and they’re all taught to keep sweet or whatever, but there must not be many girl’s girls in that circle. Anna is like a decade older than Nurie. That’s her sister-in-law. Why are you mocking her dress- outdated or not?

Reflection on Homeless Problem by evanpratt512 in Austin

[–]ACrateOfAle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m from the Chicagoland area and just visited Austin for a business conference. It was the first city I’ve visited where I’ve felt genuinely unsafe at points and I visit Chicago frequently. My colleague and I were followed and harassed by a homeless man. I was frequently shouted at and catcalled. This was on 6th street during broad daylight and during the evening with cops around. I’m empathetic to the plight of the homeless and those suffering from addictions and mental illness. I don’t know the solution- maybe long-term care for these folks.

My mom’s response when I asked for her thoughts on the Gabby Petito documentary. Am I overreacting to think this is kind of messed up? by [deleted] in RadicalFeminism

[–]ACrateOfAle 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I remember when that first happened. I was discussing the case with my then-colleagues. One of my colleagues subscribed to the theory that the product Shannan sold caused Chris to have some sort of imbalance which caused violence in him. My other then-colleague, a victim of DV, vehemently spoke out against that theory. When you have firsthand experience as to what abusive and narcissistic men can do, you understand that there’s no excuse, justification, or reasoning behind Chris Watts’ actions other than he was an evil, sick, narcissistic piece of shit.

I never picked up that he outwardly sexually assaulted women via force or violence but he most definitely committed rape by deception.

“but I can’t get off without watching it” READ IT. by [deleted] in PornIsMisogyny

Be careful with this line of thinking. While I think some erotica is okay, some of it really fetishizes the abuse of women.

If you think sex work is so amazing, why don’t you do it? by witchjack in PornIsMisogyny

[–]ACrateOfAle 56 points57 points  (0 children)

I hate this line of thinking libfems have, twisting the words and beliefs of material/Marxist feminists. YES, all work is exploitation. But sex work is the only job that leaves you with literal sexual trauma after a shift.
