5 people having a worse Monday than you.

5. Lori Loughlin, because she lost her jobs and probably can't bribe her way into getting another one.

Aunt Becky with the good heir.

The college cheating scandal is the best thing that has happened to lovers of schadenfreude since the Fyre Festival and the ripple effects keep on rippling.

Both Fuller House and the Hallmark Channel—the more wholesome Lifetime of which Lori Loughlin is queen—have cut ties with the actress, as an federal indictment kind of spoils the family fun.

Garage Sale Mysteries will never be the same.

Fear not, When Calls The Heart fans: the Heart will go on, just without Aunt Becky. There are other characters, including....a hot Mountie?

Loughlin's daughter, the not-so-studious ~influencer~ Olivia Jade, was on a literal yacht when the scandal broke. She has since lost her endorsement deals with major brands, and has been dropped by Sephora, which is like a death sentence for beauty vloggers.

Oh, and she dropped out of school, but that makes the whole thing worth it, doesn't it?

Who will be the next major scammer-daughter to fall? Please say Ivanka Trump.


4. Ivanka Trump, because Karlie Kloss still won't acknowledge that they're related.

You can't sit with us.

Speaking of Ivanka Trump...

Before she was a human Poo Pourri toilet spray attempting to mask the smell of white supremacism, she was a supermodel married to a Kushner, much like the new Project Runway host Karlie Kloss.

Kloss, who's married to Jared Kushner's brother Joshua even though Tumblr believes she's in a relationship with Taylor Swift, insists that she has liberal values, and has therefore yet to acknowledge publicly that she is related to the Trumps.

That didn't stop Ivanka from posting a terrifying video in front of her TV set that had Karlie on it.

"Amazing," she said, giving a thumbs up. "Project Runway. Epic."

The cursed dispatch from the robot factory was promptly mocked, including this ~fire~ video by Tavi Gevinson.

Is this some "sisterly love," or passive-aggressive brand sabotage?

Kloss hasn't acknowledged Ivanka's tweet, nor does she even follow her on Instagram.


3. YouTuber Shane Dawson, because he had to clarify that he did not, in fact, have sex with his cat.

The face of a man who does not f**k felines.

Whether or not "YouTuber" is a subcategory of "celebrity" with which you are familiar, we can all agree that watching a man insist that he does not ejaculate on pets is objectively hilarious.

Shane Dawson, a vlogger known for his videos investigating conspiracy theories, was the one who almost got investigated, when Twitter user @magician_dragon dug up a 2015 podcast episode in which Dawson said that his "first sexual experience" at 19 was when he humped and "came all over" his cat.

The tweet went viral yesterday and the name Shane Dawson promptly started trending, and his response only made it worse.

Dawson wrote,"I'm sorry for what I said about my cat, I'm sorry for what I said about anything or anyone that was offensive, and I'm sorry for being someone who thought being super offensive and shocking all the time was funny. I'm sorry for my past," but all I can remember is "I didn't f**k my cat. I didn't cum on my cat."

For what it's worth, the cat certainly looks like he's seen some things.

2. The woman in jail for faking her own kidnapping and murder after finding out that her boyfriend was poor.

Guess I'll die.

A woman in central China did not have the Chinese New Year of her dreams when a trip to meet her boyfriend's family brought about a devastating revelation: her lover isn't rich.

The Daily Mail reports that a 37-year-old woman surnamed Yu wanted to break up with her cash-deficient boyfriend but worried he would become "clingy," so took the easy way out by faking her own death.

"Come and save me, my ex-husband has kidnapped me, come quickly. I think I'm on the highway already," Yu told

Yu then pretended to be her ex-husband and sent threatening message to the boyfriend, saying, "call the police and your wife is dead."

Well, the BF called the police, and his wife was still alive, hanging out in a hotel room, watching TV. The non-kidnapped Yu reportedly believed that the poor, poor guy would have just given up.

While her kidnapping was faked, Yu is now somebody else's ward, and has been detained by the police for ten days for "disrupting social order."


1. Kyle Massey, because he's being sued for allegedly sending sexts to a minor.

That is so not Raven.

Former That's So Raven and Cory in the House star Kyle Massey is being sued for allegedly sending explicit texts, photos, and videos to a 13-year-old girl, who claims to have met Massey with her mom when she was just four.

People reports that according to court documents, Massey kept in touch with her family because of the child's interest in a future career in entertainment. The mother says in the suit that Massey "held himself out as a father figure" to the young child.

"Their communication restarted again in November 2018 when the teen texted Massey and explained that she would be interested in auditioning for a reboot of his spinoff series Cory in the House," according to People.

"The actor even allegedly planned to have the girl, who was from Seattle, live with him and his girlfriend in Los Angeles, while he helped her find an agent."

The girl was in eighth grade—years away from graduation.

Gender is a construct and means something different for everyone. There are infinite ways to express femininity and masculinity, and all of them are valid (assuming they don't hurt others). But still, there are certain life experiences and habits that are often tied to gender, whether because of socialization or personality. So, it's not uncommon to see a tweet about the experience of being a woman that sparks "amen" cries from across the internet.

Being able to sum up a widely experienced truth in the concise format of a tweet is a true gift, and so I've gathered 30 of the funniest and most spot-on tweets about being a woman for your enjoyment.

Kim Kardashian faces wrath of mommy-shamers over North West's church attire.

Kim Kardashian has been criticized before for her parenting choices.

While North is stylish, she's also five years old.

Kim allows her to wear bright red lipstick at Christmas parties, and North was truly serving a look:

Merry Christmas 🎄

A post shared by Kim Kardashian West (@kimkardashian) on

She responded to the backlash from the lipstick incident by saying, "I don't think she should wear lashes or too dark of a lipstick. It is a form of expression. So I want her to express herself, but I want her to be appropriate, too." It's not shocking that little girls love playing with makeup and there's nothing inherently wrong with allowing children to wear makeup sometimes, but some of Kim's choices have left people feeling uneasy. The most recent case was at a Sunday church service, where North was wearing dark lipstick, a black dress with (feathers?) and sunglasses.

If anyone has ever been or had to deal with a stubborn five-year-old girl who wants to look twenty-five, you understand how difficult it is to explain why certain clothes and makeup should be exclusively for adults. Children want to seem cool and grow up fast and the easiest way to do that is to dress up like the people they admire. Now, imagine how much harder it would be when your mom is famous for a sex tape and all your aunts have fake butts.

Some people on the internet weren't pleased with Kim's choice for church, though:

Male athlete gets roasted for comparing period pain to skinned knees. Man down.

0
0

Smart men know that it's best to believe women about the validity of their experiences, particularly when it comes to the pain surrounding periods, something (cis) men will never experience. However, not all men know to stay in their lane in this area, and when they veer out of their lane it gets messy real quick.

One of the most recent examples of a man speaking out of turn about periods is truly wild in its scope. Not only did he dare to claim women overreact to period pain, but he compared the pain of something as universal (and mild) as scraping a knee to cramps.

Needless to say it took no time for women on the internet to roast him to shred. There is just SO much to make fun of in this tweet, it's hard to know where to start.

Women are LAYING IT OUT. It's truly hard to believe this man confidently tweeted this not expecting to get gutted for the innate ignorance and absurdity of this statement.

To make matters even more absurd, the photo on the right showing the badly skinned knees is actually of a woman.

Truly, this thread is popping with beautiful images that perfectly sum up how this makes the collective internet feel. Or at least, the collective portion of the internet that trusts women to know their own experiences.

Suffice it to say, while thousands of people disagree with the notion that skinned knees outshine period pain, it's still wild to think there's anyone who agrees with that thesis.

Gwyneth Paltrow finally explains decision to 'consciously uncouple' after years of being mocked.

0
0

If you were alive and active on social media in 2014, its more than likely you remember Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin's divorce announcement. In most cases, a Hollywood divorce announcement exclusively draws the eyes of the fans most invested in the marriage. But in Paltrow's case, people were obsessed with the wording around their breakup.

In a statement published on Paltrow's lifestyle site Goop, the actress announced their split, and clarified they were choosing to call their divorce a "conscious uncoupling."

Needless to say, the term "conscious uncoupling" only fed into Paltrow's branding as an extremely new age Hollywood type, and so the jokes immediately began, and they've honestly been going for five years straight.

I'd immediately divorce anyone who suggested we have a conscious uncoupling.

For the most part, Paltrow has stayed mum about the years of jokes and backlash centered around her divorce. But on a recent episode of Dax Shepard's podcast Armchair Expert, she finally opened up about her surprise about becoming a punchline during her separation.

For Paltrow, the term "conscious uncoupling" allowed her and Martin a way to navigate the pain of separation without the abrasive language of divorce.

"It had been coined in the '70s, I think. It's such a beautiful concept. You're staring down the barrel of a divorce, the worst outcome possible. My parents were married until my dad died. All my best friends, all their parents were married, they all married their college or high school person, they’re still married. I just didn’t come from a world where there was a lot of divorce.”

She went on to share that she hoped approaching the divorce in a non-traditional way would open up the door for her and Martin to become friends, while hopefully lessening the amount of strife the kids would be thrust into.

"“The most common wound that I heard from children of divorce was, ‘My parents couldn’t be in the same room and couldn’t be friends. It took three years, it took 18 years, it took — God forbid — the death of a close family member for them to sit at the same table.' I just thought, ‘I wonder if there’s a way to circumvent that and go directly to the point where we’re friends and we remember what we loved about each other, and constantly acknowledge that we created these incredible human beings together.'”

She told Shepard that given the fact that they used the term "conscious uncoupling" to forgo unnecessary hostility, the amount of jokes and backlash felt like a slap in the face.

"It felt like such a failure to me. It was so hard and I was so worried about my kids. It felt like a layer of the world turning on us about saying, essentially, 'We just want to be nice to each other and stay a family.' It was brutal. I already felt like I had no skin on."

All conscious uncouple jokes aside, Paltrow and Martin have both obviously weathered the teasing on to greener pastures. For Paltrow, that meant marrying Brad Palchuk last year, and starting a new conscious coupling.

This ‘causes of rape’ chart is going viral because for once, it’s accurate.

0
0

Some people are still confused about what causes sexual misconduct, but a chart that's going viral on Twitter might clear things up.

Labeled "Causes of Rape," the chart was first shared by Ava DuVernay, who directed "Selma" and "A Wrinkle in Time."

It shows an image of a pie chart that's completely light blue. There's a key to the right which shows flimsy excuses for rape, such as "short skirt," "flirty behavior," and "walking alone at night." But the only cause represented on the chart is "Rapists."

The message is that rapists cause rape — not that victims provoke it with their behavior.

The chart's getting tons and tons of retweets, and people are applauding its message.

Some were confused by the shades of blue represented in the answer key, so users quickly posted another version with a darker blue for "short skirts."


John Legend asks Trump to apologize for his role in the New Zealand shooting. We'll wait.

0
0

John Legend is a musical wonder, one half of Twitter's favorite couple and the real life Arthur the aardvark we all need.

Legend and his beloved supermodel wife, Chrissy Teigen, have been known for their disdain for our president's behavior on Twitter. They both even tried to save Kanye West from turning to the dark side. As we know now, that was largely a lost cause, but the effort was valiant. After the recent attacks in New Zealand, Legend posted this to Twitter:

At least 50 people were killed in shootings that targeted two mosques in the city of Christchurch, New Zealand. The suspect is a 28-year-old Australian who had written an 87-page manifesto filled with anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim ideas. Killing innocent people who are peacefully worshipping because of fear and distrust is a disgusting crime, and Legend called out our president for not coming out and saying that white supremacist ideology is harmful. Of course, Trump didn't cause this. However, saying there are "fine people on both sides" in reference to the Charlottesville, NC white nationalist rally definitely doesn't help to prevent this ideology from spreading. Legend spoke more on the attack with Now This:

Trump does need to step up and we're lucky that even our musicians are taking a stand against hate.

Kourtney Kardashian's NSFW Photoshop fail is empowering to everyone with wrist nipples.

Lest you forget about the existence of the Kardashian family for a few hours, Kourtney Kardashian has Instagrammed a picture of herself in the bathtub that raises questions about her anatomy.

Behold, the eldest Kardashian in all her waxed glory, viewed from above as strategically placed bubbles make the photo less explicit and an impossibly long left leg brings the whole image into question.

View this post on Instagram

Love yourself as deeply as you love them.

A post shared by Kourtney Kardashian (@kourtneykardash) on

The human body usually features legs that are approximately the same length, which means that a person's knees would align as well.

Kardashian, however, has her left leg emerging not from her hip but her ankle, and it must be really difficult to walk with a leg dangling out like that.

Ouch.

The leg might be inconvenient, but having her nipple relocated to her wrist would definitely make it easier to breastfeed.

What?

The photo's caption is, "Love yourself as deeply as you love them," which raises a few questions:

1. Who is "them"?

2. Is giving yourself a wrist nipple "self-love"?

Also, her head looks like it was copy-and-pasted from a different picture.

You may laugh, but as someone with a nipple wrist, I'm happy to finally have some representation in the media.

50 hilarious jokes about therapy that will almost make you forget your trauma.

0
0

Going to therapy is one of the best decisions you can make for yourself, no matter who you are and what your life experience is. Even people with the most seemingly peaceful lives have issues and experiences to work out in therapy, and anyone processing trauma will find the best help comes from a trained professional. It can be really expensive at times, so having access to the wide array of sliding scale options can be a mental health life saver.

While obviously, the point of therapy is to have a space to let down your guard of coping mechanisms and process the darkest and most painful parts of being a person, there are still moments in the office that can border on funny or absurd. Particularly, when it comes to the ways we often want to impress or win over our therapists.

Even when you know the healthiest move is to let yourself be vulnerable and learn, it can be hard to kick habits of joking or peacocking, particularly in front of a therapist assessing your health.

So, I've gathered 50 tweets about therapy that will make you laugh en route to your next session.

18 people who cheated on their partners share why they didn't just end the relationship.

Everyone makes mistakes in romantic relationships.

While it's never a good idea to be dishonest, to break someone's trust or make your significant other feel humiliated or stupid, sometimes bad things do happen. Whether a relationship is on it's way out in your mind and you forgot to tell the other person, or you have a moment of weakness and let insecurity take over, cheating is unfortunately a very common problem. Combine all the ego-problems of being human with alcohol, sex drive, long distance relationships and our constant need for approval and you have a real recipe for disaster.

When a recent Reddit thread asked, "People who have cheated on their SO, why didn’t you just end the relationship?" a surprising amount of guilty people stepped up and shared their stories. Some did it out of spite or revenge, while others deeply regretted it. If you're considering cheating, maybe think again? Good relationships are based on love, trust and mutual respect and the second one of those breaks, you're doomed.

1. This is a bummer, "trycksy."

I wanted both things, and i was a selfish, immature shit. I've never regretted anything more than hurting my partner like that.

2. Damn, "tonkatruck007."

Same here. Me and my ex wife was together for 9 years, married for 2 of those years. We never fought or anything. Would do anything for each other. But it was basically we were living together. Not much more. I started getting attention from another women and loved it. Ended up sleeping with her and came clean with my ex. Got divorced because she wouldn't trust me again and we weren't going to force it. The morning I told her was the only thing I regret. Seeing her collapse and be so broken. Took years to get over that. Definitely changed the way I treat my fiance in our relationship.

3. Being a teenager is hell, "OptimalFollicle."

Immaturity, and a lot of insecurity. I was a teenager the only time I ever cheated and it wasn't even a thought process when I did it, it was really just "I want that right now" and the fact that I had a girlfriend didn't even cross my mind because I had never had to think of others' feelings in that way before. I was an insecure kid who thought that having a lot of sex meant I was masculine and it proved something, but now I know its just a scum move.

After the person I cheated with told my girlfriend, I learned really quickly what those actions meant and what kind of behavior is expected from a SO. Wish I didn't have to hurt someone to figure it out though.

4. Wow this is dark, "QueCassidy."

In my teens I had an ex cheat on me and then tell me right away. He told me what it was like to sleep with her and how it felt and what she tasted like. I bawled my eyes out throughout and couldn’t even look at him afterwards. Years later he reached out to me and apologized, saying that moment haunted him into future relationships. It seems like sometimes those moments are what shapes us into better partners in the future.

5. Wow, "Arale-chan."

I’ve never cheated on anyone, but my dad had an affair once. Honestly, I think the only reason he stayed with my batshit insane alcoholic mother at all is because of me and my sister.

6. This is classic, "natureterp."

I was in an abusive relationship and wanted to feel like I had power over something. I didn’t.

7. We all screw up, "DestinationUnknown68."

I cheated with an ex long term SO. That relationship was was so fucking co-dependent and unhealthy. The break up made me want to die. I was trying so hard to move on and put myself back together. I didn't want to end the new relationship. The ex was like my kryptonite, it took a long time to be able to not get sucked back in. It was because of my own baggage not the new SO. I screwed up.

8. This is a journey, "onemorenightofjazz."

I have cheated once. I loved this guy more than I can say in words, but we did not have a healthy relationship. He cheated on me. I even caught him once in bed with another man and I stayed with him anyways because he was my world. He was my best friend. He was my family.

But we didn't have sex. It killed me inside. I would show up at his house wearing nothing but lingerie and a fur coat (I wish this was a made up story by FML it isn't) and he would ignore me.

I didn't feel like I was attractive or sexy and it got to the point where I didn't think he would even care if I had sex with someone else. So one night, I was out at a show with a bunch of people, including a guy I had an innocent crush on and we ended up kissing. One kiss. I felt terrible about it afterwards. Sick. I confessed to my boyfriend and he went insane. He punched the windshield of my car and shattered it while I was driving. It was bad. He felt betrayed.

Looking back at this 20 years later, it's obvious what was going on, but I didn't see it at the time. I was young, naive and he was everything to me.

I regretted hurting him then and I still regret it to this day. I have never cheated on anyone again. Cheating isn't the answer. Talk it out, work it out or get out.

9. Reddit saves lives, "teachlyf."

I'm glad I came across this post today. Married almost 4 years, together 8. My husband is in a treatment center for an addiction that has surfaced over the last year or so. So much heartbreak has led up to him going to treatment. He's been out of the house for almost 2 months and I'm alone with my babies (my kids are very little, I'm still nursing and I stop generally when they get teeth)

He hasn't been contributing financially, took money, has been reckless, but I don't have any suspicion of him cheating whatsoever.

I feel all the feeling that go along with cheating: betrayal, humiliation, anger, diminished self-worth, etc. He went to treatment last night. He has pleaded for me to stay. I told him I'd be here.

I found myself on a dating site. I can't tell you why. None of the men on there appeal to me like my husband does. I'm still very much in love with him. I know how addiction works, I myself do not deal with anything personally but I read up. I get it's out of his control but none of it is really any consolation.

The more messages I respond to, the more normal it seems. I guess maybe I was looking for some kind of personal validation, or maybe to adopt some kind of alternate lifestyle that he would hate, like he did to me (sounds petty I know, don't judge me I'm going thru it).

Anyway point is after reading these posts I know I'm being ridiculous. I don't want to cheat. Not like this. If treatment doesn't work out for us, then I will have to do what's right for my family and end the relationship. Thank Reddit, for renewing my strength today.

10. Good for you, "Aster_Pop_Soda."

It was a dead bedroom situation. And not just no sex, but no intimacy, no connection and fairly toxic. But I felt stuck in the overall relationship and didn't know how to get out. The first time I had an affair, it was more of an impulsive mistake that I regretted deeply and said, I'll never do that again.

I tried to make the marriage work, but a few years later it wasn't, and I thought having a sexual/romantic affair would round out things that were missing in my life and make things surviveable. Instead, after barely even meeting up with the "other" man, it made me realize, I can't do this, I need to decide between being married or not. I was separated and divorced two months later.

So, I guess I only half qualify to answer the question because it's not like I continued merrily along with the relationship.

11. Aw, "xxxforcorolla."

I was young and stupid and I didn't think about how my actions would impact other people. Or I felt like I got lost in it emotionally. I didn't have the self restraint. I wasn't used to someone liking me and I felt like if I didn't take the opportunity to interact with someone who was interested in me, I would never get the opportunity again. There's a lot of factors.

12.

Not me but a former friend of mine cheated on her fiancée while on a vacation.

She had the affair for 6 months until she broke it off with her fiancée and went with the guy she was having an affair with.

Several years later, she told she felt more alive with the man than with her fiancée, of course she didn't see the irony in that she was using her fiancée's money to go on dates and vacations with the man.

Now, her ex is happily married to her sister, former friend had a child with the man, who she broke up with because they were going through so may shit situations and realizing that two idiots with no jobs or money can't go fuck around everywhere.

I asked why she took so long to break it off with her fiancée, she told me she was looking who she liked more and made it like a little competition withnpoints given out to them in her head.

13. Lessons learned, "eddcunningham."

Due to low self esteem, I thrived off attention, so rather than saying “no thank you, I have a girlfriend”, I’d let things continue. But at the same time, I also craved stability, so never wanted to break things off with said girlfriend. There’s nothing I regret more than hurting my ex like I did and karma finally caught up with me a few years later when I was cheated on, repeatedly. I didn’t end that relationship after I found out about her cheating the first time, as I felt I deserved it from my past shittiness. I vowed never to cheat again, especially after feeling the pain myself.

14. Honesty is the best policy, "EthanTheFabulous."

When I cheated it wasn't at all planned and was totally random during a drunken night. I told her about it as soon as I could and the relationship ended.

15. Wow, "stxrgirrlll."

I'm being honest; I'm the WORST person.

16. True, "BigCheetoBoi."

Divorces cost money

17. Yup, "ThatAngryDude."

I guess i'm the most shallow man on earth for the answer I have.

I was horny & she was hot.

18. And the winner is: "H8UOFA."

Sorry - just here looking for my ex...

Welcome back to The Real White Housewives of DC!

The new book"Kushner, Inc.: Greed, Ambition, Corruption" by investigative journalist Vicky Ward blows the lid off the myth of Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump by reporting that they are NOT the selfless civil servants nobody thought they were.

The husband-and-wife team have gone from inheriting jobs at their respective fathers' real estate companies to overruling Department of Justice guidelines to set up shop in her father's White House, with Daddy getting them security clearances like admission to an elite college.

According to Ward, Jared and Ivanka aren't just using their semesters abroad in Washington to personally enrich themselves, but also that Ivanka earnestly believes that she's setting the stage to eventually become president herself.

"Kushner, Inc." writes that according to former Cabinet member Gary Cohn, Ivanka sees "her father’s reign in Washington, D.C.," as "the beginning of a great American dynasty."

Ward also reports that everyone at the White House despises the couple, but the president can't bring himself to fire them.

I wonder why?

Ward appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert to serve up some of the tea that Trump will inevitably tweet about, and revealed that the only person who has the balls to say no to the self-proclaimed princess is Queen Be Best.

COLBERT: Who is there to say “no” to these people?

WARD: So here’s an interesting suggestion: Melania Trump... is the only person in my book who has ever successfully stood up to Ivanka Trump and won. I have a scene [during the transition in which] Ivanka Trump has told the world that she’s not going to be joining the White House. Absolute rubbish. Behind the scenes [she was] making all the plans. [She actually had] a “Trump family office” drawn up for the East Wing, which is normally the territory of the First Lady. When Melania Trump heard about this, she put a very quick end to Ivanka’s plans.

COLBERT: So, all our hope rests on Melania Trump.

Ward explained on Twitter that Jared and Ivanka aren't side characters in the story of the Trump administration's corruption—they are the story of the Trump administration's corruption.

Melania Trump.....welcome to the resistance.

18 men who were left at the altar share their stories. Love is pain.

Love is pain, no matter what, but there are few love experiences that sound more painful than being left at the altar on your wedding day. After weeks, months, often years of planning, being ghosted by your partner in front of hundreds of your closest friends and family members is a veritable nightmare. And yet, people somehow live to tell the story.

In a recent Reddit thread, men left at the altar shared their stories, and they truly all deserve hugs.

1. dannylopuz helped his friend cope with memes and booze.

"My friend was left at the altar by this woman because her mom opposed the marriage (the dude doesn't make a lot of money) and she ended up letting him know the night before, leaving him to cancel everything and letting everyone know."

"There was no way of letting EVERYONE KNOW that the wedding was canceled so I printed out a most interesting man meme that read "I don't always cancel weddings, but when I do, I do it with a meme" and glued it to the door of the place where the reception was supposed to take place."

"I ended up just spending the night with him and another friend with some beer and a bottle of tequila.

EDIT: to everyone asking it's worse than you think, they got married a year later and right now are going through a divorce. Unexpected I know."

2. Mahalobitch experienced a relationship 180.

"My then fiancée started to work in the city, and being from a small town really enjoyed the city life. Drinking with colleagues after work, coming home late, etc.... I grew up near the city so it was no big deal for me."

"One week I started to notice that she was always talking about going out, or drinking with friends, or work related stuff. For her birthday, I got us a weekend in a small B&B a couple hours away, and when I picked her up on Friday night from the Friday night drinks with her work friends, she was disappointed that she had to leave early."

"After the second couples therapy session, she came home and ended things. I packed up, took my dog, and never saw her again. In two weeks I went from planning a wedding with someone I loved, to complete rejection and near-suicidal thoughts. We were 3 months to the wedding, dating for 4 years."

3. Thesladenator97's step dad got ditched by a gold digger.

"So my step dad was left at the altar. Turns out his first finance was a gold digger. She left him at the altar for someone richer and then tried to claim my step dads house (even though she didn't own it). My step dad told her if she persued it,he would burn the house down with himself inside. She apparently had kept trying to milk him of money for one thing or another and that was the final straw."

4. MrCoolCol rebounded the pain away.

"We’d been together six years, we met the first week of college. I enlisted in the military senior year, and she stayed behind to finish her masters. After two years apart I suppose we started to drift apart. Anyways, I propose, she says yes - everything went according to plan; until the wedding day. I was of course humiliated and devestated. My groomsmen took me out to a strip club, I went on the honeymoon and frankly fucked like a bitch in heat. I’d more or less put her out of my mind within a week."

"Anyways, here we are 9 months, and a couple failed relationships later and I realize that I definitely have some baggage. So now my dating life is essentially a string of disappointing first dates and empty one night stands. Cheers"

5. GrenadeBlaster is sad for his teacher.

" I heard my Spanish teacher got left at the altar, I wish I knew the story. Super sad, because hes the kind of guy that you would root for if it was a high school movie. Smiley, dorky, and plays the guitar."

6. Glldinkiering wish they had paid attention to the signs.

"I wish I would have left my ex at the alter. I knew it wasn’t going to work out when I came home early one afternoon and he was snorting coke off our kitchen counter. Still went through with the marriage because he insisted it was a one time thing and it was a few days before our wedding date."

"I quickly learned if you ask “are you addicted to cocaine” the following answers tell you all you need to know:"

“Yes” means “yes”.

“I can stop anytime I want to” means “yes”.

“I only do it when someone else has it” means “yes”.

“No” means “probably”.

7. j0hnd0 was unpleasantly surprised.

"I wasn't literally left at the alter, but my then-girlfriend and I discussed getting married, and we agreed to do it, but the actual, official proposal was left to me to surprise her with (ie. we were engaged to be engaged.)."

"When I decided the time came to propose, she was supposed to take the train up to visit me, and I'd take her out on a romantic date, and I'd pop the question then. A couple of times, some legitimate emergency happened with her, and she couldn't make it. Our friends, who had become emotionally invested in our pending engagement got frustrated with her, and made her feel guilty for "standing me up" (mind you, they never told her I was going to propose)."

"She understandably felt bad for standing me up so many times, so I just decided that I'd go to her. So, I was to take the train to Springfield, Massachusetts; and she'd meet me at the station, and we'd go to the Berkshires or whatever. After so many false starts, she was resolved to see me."

"Well, surprise, surprise, her grandmother had fallen gravely ill, and she couldn't come get me, nor call ahead (no mobile service where she was)."

"So, I was in a no-good situation-standing on the platform of a train station in downtown Springfield after dark, with a ring in my pocket; and she couldn't follow through once again; because our friends had meddled, she must have thought that I was livid, and that shed used up all of her chances, and I guess she decided to cut her losses, and ghost me."

"Honestly, I wasn't angry with her. The situation just sucked all-around, and it was something we could have worked through, but looking back, I don't marry quitters, so mistake averted."

8. mylittlejabroni1 has a friend in Chuck.

"Was going to marry my highschool sweet heart. We were the friends who started dating in grade 9 and then would be seen in the halls hugging and kissing all the time (vomit inducing now that I think of it). We did everything with eachother in highschool and to be honest, looking back, I feel like I lost my best years because I spent them with one person. We created a life completely around eachother which made it that much harder when she did what she did as I didn't have much ground to recover from. We never really fought which is kind of weird. We were just existing and living life and just both okay with it. Our relationship was honestly like "perfect". But I guess in reality she was tired and bored with me and left me standing at the altar like a complete idiot. I didn't see it coming. Luckily, my best man, got on one knee and proposed to me right there at the altar. Love you, Chuck."

9. Brian_Lawrence01's sister had an important realization.

"My sister left a dude at the alter.

She had a moment of clarity the day of that she probably shouldn’t marry her drug dealer."

10. rdeincognito saved herself a world of pain.

"Not my history but my grandmother did this to the man who was gonna to marry, the reason is the night before the wedding the husband mother had a heated argument with my grandma about giving all her income to the husband and letting him control all the economic."

"My grandma was a proud woman, one of the very few females who worked in spain by that time and did not consent to give away his money. So she just did not go to the wedding."

11. Mamou_Kaans hopes to see their friend's ex in jail.

"Not mine but a friend got left at the altar, bride ran away to Italy. Later we found she was into 'dating' young boys. I hope some day she get put behind bars."

12. Maddiemoiselle's professor in college told the whole class about it.

"My communications professor from my freshman year of college did this. She had put in the syllabus that there would be no class on one Thursday because she was getting married. On Tuesday she told us she had called the wedding off over the weekend. It was then that I realized how immature and unprofessional she actually was (she took away points from me for missing class for a family emergency and told her I should have told her sooner that I was going to miss class, like I could have planned an emergency)."

13. Bkrugby78 knew a priest who was left at the altar.

"My theology teacher told us he became a priest because he got left at the altar. I’m not sure if he was serious or not, but any movie he showed always had some guy saying something like “you’re as stupid as a woman.”

Funny teacher though."

14. TheGoldenKnight left their betrothed at the altar after a big fight.

"For the opposite side, I left my bride to be “at the altar”.

Very long and detailed story short...we had a blow up fight the night before during/after the rehearsal dinner. Lots of off putting information about her came up and I knew it wasn’t meant to be. I sent her home with a friend that night and told her that I wouldn’t be at the church the next day."

"Passed on that information to friends and family and my groomsman took me out to get obliterated drunk. My family let the guests know the wedding wasn’t happening. The next day we came back to town past time for the wedding. My ex apparently went to the church and waited to see if anyone or myself showed up. The catered food and cakes were delicious...Overall, one of the best decisions of my life."

15. AngryMobe had a really rough go.

"Ugh, I’ve been holding off on bringing this up on Reddit for some time now, but here we go. It will be better to get out then to hold in.

Me(27M) and my Fiancée(27F) dated for 8 years, and talked about getting married in 2019. In September I had purchased the ring she always described she wanted, I had I custom made and had my Mom, Sister and Aunt help me find a great place. We had just got over a family death and I really wanted to include everyone in picking out a ring to bring up everyone’s spirits."

"My Fiancé has been looking forward to being engaged for a while, she always talked about our life together and she had just recently bought a condo and we had been furnishing the place together for months before I proposed, we even bought a cat together. Things were really starting to feel like they were moving well and we were both excited to spend the rest of our lives together. But her parents were strict, even after being together for 8 years, being 27 and engaged to one another, living together in her condo wasn’t an option. I would stay over every weekend behind her parents back just not to cause friction. I would sometimes have to park my car in another visitor parking lot because if they saw my car there they would assume I slept over and people would talk."

"I work in Graphic Design, and she is a Teacher. My career has not been the best and it was hard to even find a local job outside of a major city. But I did land a job that payed fair but caused a lot of stress. My Fiancee on the other had found her job almost immediately after finishing teachers college. Her parents are teachers and she has had every advantage there was in finding her job. Unfortunately this caused a lot of fights in our relationships. My Fiancee would see me stressed out a lot but instead of giving me the space I needed she would argue that I go and look for new employment. I would constantly be putting out resumes every week to places without any responses, it made the stress even worse but I always looked forward to our time together and never let it get in the way of the relationship. To her she just thought because I cannot land a job a love, I do not love myself."

"Fast forward to the beginning of this year. Her parents had been driving around her condo and saw my car parked there, they flipped and this was the last straw for me. I told her that I was uncomfortable staying at her place and risking confrontation from her parents. I told her I wanted more time to workout (slim down for wedding) and that I was upset that a 27F who owns her own place cannot tell her parents to STOP. She brings up the usual I don’t love myself enough fight and that I just want an excuse to stay at home and be lazy. I assure her that it’s ludicrous, I have a full time job and that I don’t want to tackle on the stress of her parents as well before our wedding."

"I go to visit her the first night after I told her I was feeling uncomfortable staying over. She tells me she doesn’t want to get married anymore because I don’t want to be with her as much, I tell her that’s not what I meant at all and clarified why I was uncomfortable. She then hands me a list of things she has had doubts about, a lot of them are fixable but she keeps insisting that she doesn’t want to get married. After hours of trying to talk to her about things I decided to leave and give her time to think about what she is doing. Not even a day goes by and she tells me she doesn’t want to get married anymore. I am absolutely gutted."

"In terms of the wedding, her grandfather passed away years ago and theft her some money, but it was always distributed to her by her parents. It’s how she was able to afford her condo alone. She also had money to put towards the wedding. The arrangement was her parents would pay half and I would pay half. Up until she called things off I had already payed half on all the deposits we put down. I e-transferred all the amounts to her parents who booked and payed. I trusted them and thought nothing of it."

"Fast forward to this day, I have been trying to get my portion of the deposits back from her family that has ghosted me. It’s hurts me everyday that the person who called things off is treating me this way. My ex-fiancée has only given me back half of the costs I made for the condo in terms of furniture and other things. I am thinking of turning to seek legal action against her very soon. I don’t know why everyone just decided this was the best option to take and not be accountable for their daughters actions."

"The worst part of all of this is my life has deteriorated ever since we broke up. I went into 2019 being so hopeful of life. It has not been easy at all to come to terms with everything. Recently my mother has been hospitalized for a brain tumor that had been growing since the beginning of the year. I am typing this out as we await the news of her biopsy. Life has taken such a hard turn and I feel like I have no sense of control of what is going on in it anymore."

"I have not even considered the idea of dating again and I cannot imagine the amount of baggage this year holds to me on a mental health level. I just need to take each day in one at a time and learn to move forward."

16. Mckyhodge left the altar for both their sakes.

"I am a woman. I left someone at the alter. Except the alter was a courthouse.I was 20, he was 19. We we're both military. I had just graduated basic training and he took leave and flew into my graduation ceremony with plans to marry me in the courthouse afterwards."

"Once we got to the courthouse it all became so real. He signed his name, and j just stood there with the pen. I couldn't do it. I was two seconds away from being his legal wife and I just couldn't do it."

"Our relationship was far from perfect, and if you really knew what all he had put me through you wouldn't pity him. He truly did some awful things. However, I was shit too. I can admit that."

"We both grew up, years have passed. (This happened in 2010) He's about to marry someone and I am married as well. He deserved happiness, and so did I."

Ariana Grande's latest tattoo has a bittersweet message about Pete Davidson.

0
0

Every time Ariana Grande does so much as breathe, the internet launches a full investigation to decide whether or not we should love her, hate her, or assume she is dating someone. What a healthy way we have decided to live our lives!

Grande kicked off her much awaited "Sweetner/Thank U, Next " tour last night, so you know her cyber posse of stans are paying close attention to her every move/post. So when she posted a photo of her most recent tattoo, fans were quick to take note, especially since it seemed to be covering up an old tattoo that she had originally gotten with her ex Pet Davidson.

In case you forgot or did not know, Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson had a whirlwind romance, got engaged after a few weeks, and then split after a few months. I don't see how you could ever forget, since there were daily articles about every new development in the relationship, but I digress. During the time they were together, the two did what any couple who decided to spend the rest of their lives together after three weeks of casually dating: got a series of matching tattoos. And since the breakup, the two have been working on covering up these tattoos. Good thing they are both rich, because if I got a tattoo with an ex, I'd just have to live with the "Justin 4ever" tattoo on my ass until death did us part.

For this recent tattoo, Grande explicitly denies it being a cover up in the caption, instead claiming that it's simply a tattoo that is "evolving." The orginal tattoo says "always," and Davidson has a matching one on his back. The decision not to completely cover the tattoo does align with her message in her recent mega-hit single "Thank U, Next." Not covering it up and simply turning it into something else beautiful is another way of Grande growing and moving on from her past relationship, while still valuing and honoring it. It's a lovely message, and we hope this is one of the times when the internet decides that we should love Ariana.

I'm sure tomorrow we can all attack her for drinking an iced coffee with a plastic straw or some shit.

Comedian shares serious thread about being racially profiled

0

News flash: racism is still a thing in America. Some people want to believe that as a nation we have learned from our mistakes and found a way to coexist without racism. And while that is a lovely idea, it just simply is not the case at this point in time. If we want to know how our society is still practicing racism, all we need to do is listen to the people of color who live in this country and believe them when they share their experiences and realities with us.

The good news is we are able to easily do this. Here, we can begin now. Comedian @MillyTamarez posted a thread on Twitter about a recent encounter she just had where she was racially profiled by two white store owners in Massachusetts.

Here is the entire thread:

We stan an educational thread. Thanks for sharing your story, Milly!

Kit Harington opened up about seeking therapy after getting murdered.

Jon Snow may know nothing, but Kit Harington knows that there is no shame in seeking help during an emotionally tumultuous time, and that mental health is a vital facet of overall well-being!

The King in the North (and maybe of the Seven Kingdoms?) opened up to Variety about how Game of Thrones changed his life, and the difficulties of being subject of worldwide fascination.

Harington said that his lowest point coincides with his characters'—after Jon was brutally stabbed in a mutiny by the Night's Watch.

prepare jon snow GIF by Game of Thrones: #PrepareForWinter
Ouch.

Until that point, Jon Snow had been just one out of approximately eleventy thousand characters in the series, but the end of season five is one the narrative started to hone in on the bastard.

"When you become the cliffhanger of a TV show, and a TV show probably at the height of its power, the focus on you is f—ing terrifying,” he said.

"You get people shouting at you on the street, 'Are you dead?' At the same time you have to have this appearance. All of your neuroses — and I’m as neurotic as any actor — get heightened with that level of focus."

The obsession was so intense that then-president Obama allegedly asked the head of HBO at a state dinner if Jon was really dead, to which the executive replied, "Mr. President, even your security clearance isn’t high enough to give you the answer to that."

still makes me more clever than you game of thrones GIF
Such a Tyrion move.

While Game of Thrones is fun to watch, it sounds rough to be in.

"It wasn’t a very good time in my life," he explained. "I felt I had to feel that I was the most fortunate person in the world, when actually, I felt very vulnerable. I had a shaky time in my life around there — like I think a lot of people do in their 20s."

"That was a time when I started therapy, and started talking to people. I had felt very unsafe, and I wasn’t talking to anyone. I had to feel very grateful for what I have, but I felt incredibly concerned about whether I could even f—ing act," he added.

Winter came.

(Is this a Kit Harington or a Beto O'Rourke profile?)

10 'Game of Thrones' memes that perfectly recap where we left off. A new season is coming.

After a nearly two-year wait, we are merely weeks away from the beginning of the end of Game of Thrones! The return of the biggest show in the universe will not only entertain us, but liberate us from awkward silences.

It's easy to forget where we left off, so here's a crash course in meme form to help you impress everyone at your watch party.

1. In the season seven finale, "The Dragon and the Wolf," Jaime left Cersei in King's Landing because he's sick of her murders and takes the existential threat of climate change the Army of the Dead seriously. Here's hoping he seeks comfot with his non-sister, Brienne of Tarth.

2. Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen got it on, all while Samwell Tarly and Bran discussed his true parentage. Dany gives the title of "cool aunt" a new meaning.

3. Sansa and Arya teamed up to execute Petyr "Littlefinger" Baelish for setting in motion the deaths of basically their entire family. Chaos is a ladder.

4. Theon Greyjoy abandoned Yara on a burning boat but set off to get her back. He's very sorry.

5. We found out that Jon Snow's real name is Aegon Targaryen, and he's the legitimate heir to the Iron Throne.

6. An ice dragon knocked The Wall down because WALLS. DON'T. WORK.

7. Bran Stark is already the Three-Eyed raven, but according to fan theories, he might have yet another identity.

8. She's all out of kids but she's got one on the way...

9. Cersei DGAF about the White Walkers. They're far from King's Landing and Euron Greyjoy went to fetch her some mercenaries.

10. The High Septon's diary, as discovered by Gilly and Sam, revealed that Robert's Rebellion was built on a lie because Lyanna Stark actually loved Rhaegar Targaryen and they got married so their child isn't a bastard but the heir to the throne.

That child is Jon Snow.
