This isn’t a dig at Jennifer Lawrence, but the way she’s been talking about herself on her current press tour makes me sad. She basically expresses that having a personality as a young woman in the public eye made her too much, and she doesn’t want to repeat those same mistakes. It’s a little eerie.

These videos get me every year. Covering 26.2 miles in a day, however long it takes, is an amazing accomplishment. It’s so beautiful that NYC makes sure to celebrate until the last person crosses the line so they have that moment of communal joy, too.
Palate cleanse. Some humans are terrible, but more of us are great.

A history of intimate partner violence against women is the primary risk factor for intimate partner homicide. In Canada, 60% of spousal homicides involve past family violence.

This is why women don’t come forward.
5 hockey players accused of sexually assaulting a woman in Canada were found not guilty because she wasn’t deemed credible “enough”
It’s bad enough that most rapes don’t even get prosecuted, even fewer are ever found guilty:

- The players stopped at one point to document her saying she was okay.
