So this is what a feminist blog looks like. Good to know.

But let's not give them or their butts more credit than they're due, all right?

I wonder which character in Webdings font she used as a template for her eyebrows.

If I were her, I'd tell myself it was anything but that.

For a feminist blog, it's very interested in keeping women's focus on who's dating whom, who's wearing what, who's breaking up, and what's going on with TV.

Which raises the question: are we talking to our teens enough about how they can be less dumb?

This is something that's said by people who aren't on the receiving end of the dumbness.

Look, if I say too much about this people are going to think I'm defending something that I'm not.

In principle: I don't believe in violence. I don't believe that if someone commits a crime then it's a citizen's right to dispense a punishment. I believe in due process. I believe in legal punishment for convicted criminals, not mob justice.

I think your definition of "risk" and mine are quite different. To you, "risk" is akin to "controversial." To Madonna, real "risk" would mean putting out something she believed in that didn't get her lots of attention and sell her product. Every move, every word, every 3 minute and 40 second song and all their…

One thing that always annoyed me about Madonna is that she purports herself as an artist when she's really an entertainer. Very high quality, effective, much-loved... but an entertainer all the same. What she does is calculated to trigger certain market responses, to invoke complex but effective PR results, and to…

Yeah, people are overthinking it. If a guy chews with his mouth closed and owns a bar of soap, he's already in the top 20%. It's not like he needs some kind of superpower beyond being cute and playing guitar.

And what is a "lavender marriage"?

not opening the box before dropping several hundred dollars is the dumbest thing you can do.

...While they cry. In their Star Wars jammies.

I wonder what visitors from another planet would think if they came to earth and saw how video gaming works: Companies that are known both for taking advantage of their customers while being largely unconcerned with protecting your digital data create insanely expensive proprietary devices that don't work out of the…

Oh, look. Someone coming into an internet thread to argue Windows vs. Mac... and I was just thinking "This conversation needs more 1997."

"She was asking for it."
– The answer to every sexual misconduct issue, apparently

Dude, the "she was asking for it" angle makes me embarrassed on your behalf. But whatever.

Don't be so sure. This isn't just an argument. It's abusive and sexist and makes him look like a huge asshole. Now, add in the fact he's wearing the team's uniform with the team logo... and now his comments are connected to the brand. And trust me: It's all fun and games until you fuck with the brand.
