I specifically chose the college I went to because it did not have a greek system. I was still sexually assaulted.
I was just thinking about how nice it is that Ryan Adams now leads a fucking miserable life but man, we have so much farther to go with men who have been telling us loudly who they are the whole fucking time

does anyone else have multiple neighbors who don't actually seem to live in their houses?
I absolutely believe you will see more stories about the kookie left and radical socialists in the coming weeks. And a lot of attention on various kinds of unruly women.
