I want to watch a buddy cop show about her and Rachel Dolezal. Rach is the tough, take-no-shit, blackface cop. She doesn’t need a gun or badge; she’s got her bow and arrow and her race card. Belle is the freewheeling hippie cop with a tragic secret: she’s dying of fake-ass cancer. Together, they must team up to fight

No, horrible Nazi punk would have been, you know, whatever. This was like...Evanescence but, like, Nazi-themed?

I haven’t watched the lecture yet. . . . but I did read this about it in the Guardian:

WARNING: under no circumstances should any of us engage with trolls wondering why trans* lives are valid but this is not. Until they provide a logical or coherent argument that explains why race and gender can be considered analogous in this way they don’t deserve a well-thoughtout response. I gladly urge anyone to

Anecdotally, I have met (and was married to one) African American men who were very critical of large sized women, and one of the reasons they were dating non-Black women was, as they themselves stated, that they disliked the sometimes larger size of some African American women. Internalized racism at its worst.

White ladies, really? A fucking puppet? As opposed to maybe the Muppets in general for creating her if you just had to go there? Is this like, mass psychosis? Do you guys think she’s real? Seriously holding out hope that this is a massive troll that we will all laugh about in a week. Fucking species-ism? Good lord

Srsly. See this face? This is my serious face. Demonic possession by a sex demon sounds hella fun.

Yes. Too large a share of feminist attention is being devoted to the concerns that fall within the personal experience of college activists, while not enough attention is paid to huge systemic problems that people tend not to experience firsthand until they’re older/unless they’re poorer than these campus activists -

Can a Torontonian with some time and knowledge fill in a few readers on why this is especially heinous, now and in this city, in terms of rape culture? The ongoing trial of Jian Ghomeshi for assaulting women across Toronto? Maybe a list of missing and murdered aboriginal women that’s being ignored by the government?

What I’m getting from this is that a Lilly Pulitzer employee probably has an eating disorder or at least some issues with food and image. For those that are confused, this was up in someone’s cubicle, not the company break room (notice the images are held up with push pins — that ain’t no fridge).

This whole sad drama has been kinda triggering for a lot of people, so I just want to throw this out there, from RAINN:

“Assholes spontaneously combust when faced when someone who isn’t emotional and doesn’t care about their escalation tactics.”

Ha! When I was a teacher I was a MAGNET for asshole parents. It’s also been a problem in any customer service job I’ve ever worked, and has even become a running joke in my current workplace.

A coworker of mine told this story where she was with her husband in their car. It was dark out and they were driving down the road. She is looking out the window and sees a kangaroo. She tells her husband and he doesn’t believe her. It turns out that there is a house with a kangaroo who got loose and that was the one

Yeah, let’s hate on Gwyneth Paltrow again. I swear Jezebel writers, you do more hating on successful women than almost the fucking MRA’s.

Okay, I have some friends involved in this group. Here’s what I’ve been able to suss out from the flurry of Facebook posts:

I have no idea if Full Circle is a cult, or tax-sheltered yoga retreat but the Kombucha bust was about gentrification. The gentrifiers spend a good part of their day calling police to report on... anything. That want Venice to be Malibu.

People speaking from privilege are more often than not blinded by it and from it.

Way too much tongue and not enough fucking cheek for my measure.
