Oh, didn't notice that line. My b.

I'd be curious to know how this plays out for names (like Astrid) that are "exotic" but fairly easy to pronounce for English speakers.

Well, that was sort of the point of my comment - I have no effing clue. I think ideally, if I were to make something up on the spot, I'd say that the schools should take it more seriously and the students should take it less seriously. I think a lot of problems come up when the student body gets all up in arms when…

See, I used to have a pretty aggressive stance on this, but I recently found out that one of the cases at my school (which is named on this list) was completely bogus. Like, the accused was my best friend, I was at the party where the incident happened, and I didn't even know *he* was the guy who'd been accused of…

I would have ranked Kevin closer to the top 1) because all my high school friends were pretty much him and 2) 'cause that actor grew up to be really hot.
Clearly I am incapable of making unbiased decisions.

On the other hand, targeting this PSA pretty much exclusively at men does help solve the problem of victim blaming and telling women not to get raped. Because frankly, the vast majority of rape culture *is* on men. It *is* the men and boys in society who need an attitude adjustment, who need to see this as a problem…

Well... I definitely know transgender people who know other transgender people, and talk to their fellow trans* buddies about trans* issues. Does that count as a culture? People bonding over shared experiences who develop a language to discuss those experiences? Or is there more to it than that?

I'd be curious to know where in Maryland these frat houses are located. I went to high school in DC, and there are definitely satellite "towns" in Maryland that are well-connected to the DC Metro system and culturally pretty much part of the district. As in, if DC's border weren't also a state line, they would just…

I feel like I would probably enjoy going to this restaurant, not gonna lie. I mean chain franchise + "real" food = TGIF, Cheesecake Factory, Red Lobster, etc etc and I like all of those things.

I'm a songwriter and I 100% identify with this

I am the cuddly nightmare hybrid of a koala and an octopus, so this is very good news for me which I gleefully reported to my boyfriend.

It's pretty great lbr

Why is nobody discussing this awesomely creepy kpop music video where mannequins come to life and do an adorable dance? 'Cause I think we should be discussing that.

You win the internet for today

Can you guys stop giving me advice now? I don't mean to snap or anything, but I'll have kids when I have kids, it may be at twenty or it may be at thirty-five, and it's all pretty much fine. My cousin had a kid at seventeen and she's thriving now (and so is her daughter). I graduated from kindergarten kind of a…

I appreciate this comment. TY

People are already racist whether they think they are or not, so you (this is a generic you aimed at all white employers) already assume the black guy is less qualified than the white guys. You just are. Affirmative action doesn't create bias, it makes you check your pre-existing bias. The only reason to be opposed…

I mean, I'm already a college student about to take a year off and get a job/some life experience.
