And locks aren't dirty. My point is that both things CAN be true, but one is accepted as always true by the masses while the other is never mentioned. My whole point is that it takes way more effort for black hair to pass as presemtable than white hair, and that difference is a prime example of that. And I've had more…

But as a white girl, you're largely given a pass on that. Black women have to go through so much more for our hair to be seen as presentable. Our natural hair just won't do for some people. We practically have to be fresh out of the salon to get an ok, and even then only in acceptable styles. You and a bunch of other…

I think we all need this.

I'm confused—how did the baby arrive at the hospital with no vital signs, but she killed it later at home?

Rising powers are always good to pass judgment on. That way it doesn't come across as too brutal.

Agree that Brazil would be the perfect setting for Jez writers to have an (uninformed) opinion on. Ex-colonialism, race issues, plastic surgery and beauty issues. To be sure, the thing about Nigeria is that people don't…

I think Brazil is okay. Not only is it diverse, it has a serious issue with poor people being marginalized by a largely light-skinned upper class. China is too easy, and I want to be employed in the future. (Hi future Chinese overlords! I love you!)

We really need a new country to pick on from a Western perspective soon. Any suggestions, folks?

“Even when you are looking like your normal self, people keep asking you: ‘Why are you frowning?’”

DRUG DEALERS ARE BOTH!

I will admit that I could not make it all of the way to the end of his FAQ's but I will say that this reads as an excellent mansplanation of why he's single and why I'm a happily partnered gay lady.

How bad is it that I just want to find out what happens when someone sends their application (lets be honest) to fill his "good girl for friendship and romance" vacancy? Seriously, what's the process there?!

Oh my "god".

Just give cash. Actual gifts just make for a huge pain-in-the-ass when it comes time for the divorce.

Actually, please DO put your racist tendencies front and center when you're online dating - it will deter non racists from wasting even a single second of their time pursuing a connection with someone who is completely incompatible, while also attracting the interests of fellow bigots - taking them out of the dating…

I did actually give cash to my cousin when he got married. Him, his wife and their son are living in a nearly 100 year old house that needs a ton of improvements, like insulation, made to it. Cash or a home improvement store gift card was more appreciated than any gift that didn't need cluttering up a tiny home.

Oh! They should do a plus-sized fashion season on PR! There would be the regular amount of body snarking by the contestants during the first episode or two (like there is for every "normal"-sized client challenge), and then they would shut the fuck up and actually make clothes for size 12 and over.

At this point, The Onion is no longer satire. It's an oracle, giving us the news a little bit before it happens.

The other morning, I was walking to BART, and some drunk guy, literally lying on the sidewalk, looked up at me and said "Smile, baby." I didn't. Instead, I stopped and said "Who the fuck are you? You don't know me. Why should I smile for you, asshole?" He just looked at me and mumbled "Whatever." So, I turned and…

You're lucky. You only have Bitch Face. I have chronic Tired Face. No matter how well rested I am, or how nice I think I look, someone will tell me that I look tired. When I am in a particularly bad mood, I come back with "Call me old and fat too, and we'll be good."
