For me. the fear of teleportation comes from, even if it works perfectly, is not knowing if it's the same consciousness. Like, it tears your body apart, then even if it perfectly creates you with all your memories and stuff, is that really 'you', or just a perfect copy of you and the real you was obliterated? You'd…

it needs to stop

Don't ever speak of it. It's just biological human nature that you were attracted to an attractive 22 year old, whether or not you loved her sister. What is important is that you never acted on it. Frankly, the shame is hers for violating the bonds of sisterhood by telling you she wanted to sleep with you. But she…

Damn. Knew someone was gonna be smart enough to check my comment history sooner or later D: /trollbusted

Ya...I feel like those mummy things are just weird. I did not think black woman caricature. I thought Real Housewives or Jersey Shore.

Jezebel needs ad revenue from clicks and outrage brings clicks.

Maybe I'm just a bad liberal on this, but "cultural appropriation" criticisms are typically bullshit. Why can't someone be inspired by other cultures and use it to influence their own art?

Interesting. An article posted earlier today on Jezebel sang the praises of a young white man dressing up in the same way that Perry gets flak for.

You can't have it both ways. If race is a social construct, as the current dogma goes, all one needs to do is alter the signs and symbols associated with that race, and thus change it. To say one cannot change their race is to attribute it to blood, genetics, ethnicity, or phenotypical characteristics - which…

[Small voice] I like makeup and beauty stuff. I'd love to read lovely, joyful pieces about how to do half-moon manicures and how to tightline properly. And I think there are a lot of really rewarding conversations to be had about how progressive women approach beauty rituals and performance, and the way they can…

Even with smaller sample size, the results here are staggering and fairly creepy. Being able to hone in on the exact latitudinal and longitudinal coordinates for a given cat seems silly at first. But Mundy reminds us that "I Know Where Your Cat Lives" doesn't actually document all living cats, but "only the ones that…

Fuck that. I'm not a slobbering animal who gets so obliterated that I eat garbage from a filthy floor. Why do these Gawker sites glorify alcohol abuse and drunken idiocy like this? If she was a heroin addict eating garbage she'd be considered pitiful and sad but because she was out "partying" it's all good? Fucking…

OK, but those compatibility scores have been, in most of my experiences, on fucking point. Seriously. It was always the guys with compatibility scores lower than 75% that sent one word messages or vulgar ones, and the guys with 80%+ rating that I had decent conversations with.

just once id like to see one that reads "psycho killer was fond of sports"...

People generally do not kill for fun, though. Sure, you get some outliers, but they are widely considered to be messed up, and there are outliers in any group. Cats kill "for fun," for example, in that they often abandon their kill without eating it or bringing it as an offering to their family. Killing "for hate,"…

An octogenarian expressed some thoughts on paper and now we're blowing him up?

95 years ago, I would not have the right to vote. Or have an appropriate education. I would be treated as a subhuman baby making machine. In America. Shits messed up, but people fail to step back and put the present in historical context. This world is in Paradise compared to a century, even half a century ago

Correction: self-loathing humans are the worst.

The world has been a mess for a while now. Ever since right about the time that the first Homo sapiens started getting together and doing Homo sapien stuff. Maybe that's just a coincidence, though.

I'd adore seeing the CPS rationale, but VBAC can be substantially more dangerous than you're giving it credit for, and fucking with safety during childbirth is something I'd leave to devoted homebirthers who're too often surprised to find that good vibes can actually end in maternal and child disability and death. If…
