Very much my reaction! I washed out of precalculus but you go girl!

Are you in middle school? Every year one of my middle schoolers brings this up and we spend an intense class period looking at pictures of concentration camps and discussing the power of symbols and context. You are more then welcome to join my class next time we have this discussion since it seems as if you would

"co-ed"?

I really don't understand people who think getting verbal consent is dull. How is your desired sex partner telling you they want to fuck you unsexy?

his whole town supports him. That town is the most worthless and vile town in all of america

CNN will be glad to hear that his life was not, in fact, ruined.

So, Registered Sex Offenders can't live near schools, but CAN play on their football teams. Makes sense.

In NO OTHER PROFESSIONAL INDUSTRY is it acceptable to let your workers be subjected to repeated, targeted pornography and violence. I have NEVER worked a job staffed by the kind of people who would stand idly by — it would be one fat lawsuit after another up everyone's asshole and an HR nightmare, to boot.

I don't think much would be lost if Kinja just didn't allow burner accounts to post links, videos or gifs.

To me, it seems this is really indicative of the way in which it's so much harder to exist as a woman on the Internet — women have to deal with so much shit, and so much of the stuff done to ~make the 'net free for everyone~ doesn't take that fact into account at all.

We dealt with rape gifs, violent pornography, racism, and harassment regularly, but there was a system in place with which to have it reported and dealt with. Banning didn't usually result in the same person immediately making a new

How can we support you? What can readers/commenters do to push Gawker Media into action?

So basically my argument is wrong because anecdote?

For what it's worth, I want to apologize to our readers who are forced to interact with these violent gifs regularly. The point of Kinja is to create a better platform for discussion and those discussions CANNOT happen when you're inundated by such traumatizing material. It's this person's goal to shutdown

What bothers me about this is that we don't record IP addresses so as to protect these burner accounts for people who might want to tip us anonymously about a story. So the company is seemingly placing a priority on making these hypothetical tipsters feel safe over the safety of the actual real live women who write

I didn't say that. It certainly is a real sport. I didn't argue otherwise. It is not, however, women's baseball. All too often, young ladies who wish to continue playing baseball are forced to settle for softball because we, as a nation, are completely ignoring baseball for women.
