Artist statements are the worst. The process of creating good art is the process of going beyond thoughts you can put into concrete words — and then being expected to put them in concrete words on the wall next to the art. Anything beyond “here is a description of the physical process of creating this art” or the

I think the bar used to be lower for “strong female characters”. That said, Buffy was both a product of its time and yet in many ways still forward thinking and trend-setting.

And yet...if you literally base your creative career off of telling people that you’re such a great feminist while serially cheating on your

My guess is that he thought it didn’t violate the Goldwater Rule because he was giving a negative diagnosis (“Trump isn’t this”) instead of a positive diagnosis (“Trump is this”).

The guy who wrote the DSM description for “Narcissistic Personality Disorder” (I think in an earlier copy of the DSM, not the current one) came out to say Trump is not a narcissist, because there’s no proof that he is personally suffering, so stop trying to armchair-diagnose the man as one. It was the one time I’ve

Ding ding ding, you get it! And the prize you win is...existential dread, I think.

Seriously. Is it inappropriate to point out how ripped Long is?

My condolences on having such a shitty dad, and good for you.

They weren’t idiots who showed up to protest a statue being taken down. They were idiots who showed up to fight, carrying clubs and shields emblazoned with Confederate and Nazi imagery, and then one of those idiots killed an innocent woman. SHUT THEM DOWN.

Don’t get me started on how batshit some right-wing Jews can be...there are even Jewish Holocaust deniers...

“Antifa” is “Anti-Fascist”, also known as “anti-racist”, anarchist radicals on the left who believe in meeting white supremacists with violence. Although they are not always violent, as in Charlottesville many of them were marching peacefully until a man rammed his car into them. For example, I believe the Black

You’ve got your black people, and you’ve got your niggers.

You just took that about three steps further than I am comfortable with. <goes to vomit and then wash the taste and memory out with whiskey>

Real or not, that’s who he really is. A bulldog’s jowls, a flush of rage, and bad hair over a pinhead.

Kara Walker isn’t white. And you sure as hell can’t say she’s a self-hating black woman, or known for siding with white people.

Schultz made a mistake. She miscalculated how her “Open Casket” would be received. Does that make her a racist or generally shitty person? I kind of doubt it. That image may not have been hers

I’m going to disagree on always waiting for her cue on whether to shake hands or not. It’s fucking exhausting to always have to initiate the handshake — sometimes aggressively — when men seem to shake hands in business situations with hardly a thought. If she’s wearing a hijab or other religious attire maybe ask if

I had a very tame bridal shower — a nice lunch with female friends and relatives at a rich friend’s house — rather than a bachelorette party. However, I was recently happy to attend just about the best bachelorette party ever for one of my friends. Zero plastic penises, and only pins that said “Bride” and “Friend of

Whoo-hoo-hoo, look who knows so much. It just so happens that your friend here is only MOSTLY dead. There’s a big difference between mostly dead and all dead. Mostly dead is slightly alive.

I miss it too.

So much easier to blame some meme on the Internet than take a hard look at their own parenting style.

I recognize that there are some wonderful parents out there whose children struggle with suicidal ideations despite their best efforts (and if that’s your situation my heart absolutely goes out to you). But those don’t

This is the direct result of our stupid policies (or lack thereof) regarding addiction of all kinds. People end up killing themselves because they were too ashamed to ask for help. Poor man, we are all worse off without his shining light. RIP Nelsan Ellis/Lafayette!
