@TheRealThelmaJ1 Is this really Gacy?!
Some of his victim’s’ bodies were buried beneath that brick porch.

@MadelaineLucyH I almost answered this exactly the wrong way because you have dazzled me again dammit

If God doesn’t love me why did I get to hear a misogynistic republican take his Sexism In The Workplace test

@MadelaineLucyH I put up with that to be helpful which was brainless. And what good did it do me?

What’s a massive ick people don’t realise when dating? For me, it’s being unreliable/flaky. Very hard to stay into someone who is very intermittent or not that invested in you.

@MadelaineLucyH I will support you always because whst else can I doooooooii

@MadelaineLucyH It would be more gentlemanly to remark that your new profile picture seems reminiscent of a sketch or painting by Burne-Jones or Rossetti. Since the women in their art seem ethereally brainy and beautiful, perhaps the implied compliment would arrive with more admiration?

Flirting: wow you look so beautiful, are you single?
Sexually harassing: I bet you look so good naked under that, I want to undress you
This is NOT hard gentlemen, however hard you may indeed be.

@MadelaineLucyH What I don't understand is why a young woman wouldn't want to see someone her own age. What I really don't get is why an older man would want to have an intimate relationship with a much younger woman. What are you going to talk about or do?
English
@MadelaineLucyH I've noticed that many, many women care about this issue because several post about it every day. I've hardly ever seen a man express his concern about it unless the woman was in his family. Even then, they rarely feel the need to go public.

You want to date an 18 year old, 43 year old man? Are you going to attend her high school play? Sit next to her parents at her final assembly? Attend her best friend's 18th birthday party? Pick her up from school at 3pm? Do her homework with her?

@wackiejalsh @JoyceCarolOates @CommanderBliss I loved Brooklyn too. The scene when the heroine is waiting in line for the bathroom and converses with the roommate whose husband dumped her for another woman. And the roommate gamely explains she’s getting fixed up to go out and get herself another one—perfect.
English
@JoyceCarolOates @CommanderBliss The story of emigration from Ireland over the centuries is a heartbreaking one. At the end of the movie 'Brooklyn' I got absolutely hysterical, uncontrollably crying thinking of all my forefathers who were forced to leave family behind, often never to see them again 😢

this is so true. Conan O'Brien is the most thoughtful of "comics." but wisecracks & humor fade into invisibility when we see the so-small, yet monumental homes of ancestors. I did not ever have this experience--(ancestors from Ireland, Hungary & Germany)--but feel as O'Brien did.
especially, watching "Train Dreams"--a film with much silence. our ancestors who were manual laborers through entire lives from childhood to death; our grandparents & great-grandparents who not only never wrote a book or a story but were educated, had not the luxury of language. "they survived."

Conan O'Brien says he has "incredible empathy for people who have immigrated to another country" after traveling to Ireland and seeing his great-grandfather lived. "I went back to Ireland and I [saw] a great genealogist who said, 'I found where your great-grandfather’s home was.' The home is gone, but he found the little spot where he lived, near the Galbally Mountains. He said, 'I’ll go there and show it to you,' and I said, 'We’ll do it on camera.' "I was expecting to have these jokes loaded up; we had props and funny things we were going to do... But I got there, and I did not expect this because I'm not someone who wears my emotions on my sleeve, but I got emotional. It was very powerful. "This was a very small plot of land. He was a tenant farmer, so it wasn't his. He didn't have money, and he needed to move on because it wasn't working; probably not enough to eat, couldn't sustain. So, he left and went to America, and here I am a couple of generations later. "What's amazing to me is when you have that experience and you stand there, I have incredible empathy for people who have immigrated to another country. It takes an entire lifetime to go to a country where, often, people don't speak the language. They have to spend their entire lives just getting things started for the next generation; it's a whole lifetime that you're feeding into this process. "I was just thinking about this guy, whom I'll never meet, who had to do that. I think I was overcome by the fact that there's a lot of sadness in that story, and in a lot of these stories. People leave not because they think, 'Hey, I just want to go have fun in America.' They leave because they have to." (via Jimmy Kimmel Live)
