I thought you didn’t do Thanksgiving in Scotland because it’s an American holiday - like 4th of July - and thus has no roots in Scotland?

I think you’re right about the popeye’s thing.  Now that there’s a good alternative out there, people are gonna be way more willing to boycott them.

Ok, so, while the whole “critique of black women’s bodies” thing is a legitimate issue, it’s not what happened in this case, so i’m not sure why you insist on shouting about it. Someone promoted a dangerous water fast, and someone else said that was bad. Bodies weren’t being critiqued, just actions.

Does anyone ever consider the possibility that the cats are wrong about what’s going on, and that the “chosen one” is just burned alive and then is dead?

Eh, I’d be ok with being a body double. So long as no one can ID me from the video, my ass can be wherever.

Yeah, GRRM’s like “and... they’re having sex... I guess. Doing the sex-thing. Great, that’s done - now here’s 20 pages of what’s for dinner.”

Nah, killing an in-law isn’t the same as killing family.

It’s worth shopping if you’ve had a very stressful thanksgiving and need to blow off some steam by fighting strangers in a Walmart. Also if you need an excuse to get away from your house (and the people in it) and spend all hanging out with your fighting buddy “waiting in line” while you just shit-talk your relatives…

They suck so bad! Like, I totally agree that fat chicks should have escapist fluff just like everyone else (so no judgement if they’re anyone’s twinkie) but Oh My God, can we have something, anything, other than the exact same “I’m fat but learn that I’m still a great person and I’m going to get a good job and hot…

Let me summarize all their plots:

SO many Jezzies were defending these white female authors

Also you’re racist against cows!

Oh I’ve had lots of bad days.  But see, some of us understand that “bad day” doesn’t justify “being a shit” and also “being ridiculously unprofessional.”  Like, I’m not sure what Housewives of ______ TV show you and your friends are part of, but the rest of us have some basic self-control and professional standards.

No, Nelson gave a valid (if unfavorable) review of a book.  No apology needed for that.  Dressen acted like a shit - that requires an apology.

Yes, but they generally wouldn’t be needing to seek treatment *or* infecting others if they had condoms.

Wealth is a factor for most health issues, but not for STDs. Other than sexual activity in the first place (which both rich and poor practice ;)) the main decider of STD rates is condoms - and people aren’t nixing condoms because they can’t afford it.

It does if you’re shutting down all the legitimate women’s health centers because you don’t like that they also provide abortions.

Yeah, I really wanted to like her. Catchy music PLUS enraging all the fat-shamers? You got my vote. Then this...

If Lizzo’s fans are half as crazy as the Beyhive or your average K-pop fandom, that’s not an idle threat.

But hopefully she will recoup some damages in this lawsuit.
