Like porn previously was for Eve, Julian is forbidden. He is 19 years old and a former classmate to her son and the object of his bullying. Yet, she is drawn to him because of (maybe I’m projecting but) his tender eyes, awkward gait, and trembling half-smile.

Seems his sympathies towards precocious and assertive high school-aged girls stops when they aren’t romantic candidates in one of his stories. How very strange.

You’re right. This isn’t body positivity. This feels like somebody starving for validation and willing to circus sideshow herself to get it. This just makes me sad. Somebody has to tell her you don’t have to be on all the time. Just wear regular clothes and enjoy the game.

Because only illegal things are newsworthy? WTF

They didn’t tweet about it. This is investigative reporting. And its valuable. With reporting like this, potential employees can make informed decisions about a company they might work for.

Humanity deserves to fail if this is the philosophical quandary we’re currently faced with: whether to wear a perfectly functioning coat or not because it’s SO last season. No wonder the fashion industry is the number 2 polluter.  

A mediocre kid of a rich music engineer in NY gets a music gig on SNL. I smell nepotism. Privilege of the wealthy and connected at the very least. She was terrible. Her stage name is stupid. Pass. *I’m gay and I approve this message*

Ok, that’s a better answer the other poster did. I’ve only heard it used in the literal sexual sense, without any kind of “lifestyle dynamic”, just in the “One of us is going to give dick, the other is going to take dick” simplicity. Well aware people can switch it up, but this is the first I’ve seen it being used by…

And alll the things that were exciting and different

Its kinda the basis of western legal practice.

Defense lawyers don't defend their client's actions, they defend their legal right to have their case examined and tried by a court of law. It is one of the foundations of democracy, everyone has the right to a fair trial

What is worth 60 dollars? 

How can Metroidvania be one of your favourite genres whilst also apparently disliking backtracking to previous areas with new abilities? That all but defines Metroidvania.

It’s one thing to see the misleading NTY’s tweet misquoting him and then firing off angry reactionary tweets, but it’s another to have the full context of his statement and still decide to sit down and write about it and pretend he said something he never said.

Reality bites. This is our reality. Either you vote for the person who is living in reality or you vote for the person who is selling you a pipe dream.

People don’t understand what the ACA cost Obama and the Democrats. They had 59 seats (with the Independents) in the Senate and a 79 seat majority in the house. Even with this massive advantage they couldn’t get a public option through the Senate and ended up passing the ACA in the senate with a 50-50 tie broken by Joe…

I don’t want to be angry, I want shitty people to be held accountable for their words and actions. It does nothing to alleviate the abuse that Brooke Nelson has suffered the last few days, and she didn’t even ask her fans to stop harassing her. It was a half-assed apology, she never admits what she did was wrong, just…

She couldn’t even name the person she bullied. I’d give it a C-.

“Nelson, who is now a graduate student in linguistics studying online harassment”

She didn’t join the committee to prevent anyone from being exposed to it, she joined the committee because she didn’t think that Dessen’s work, which was apparently under consideration, was up to the standards of what the program was supposed to be. How is that an issue that she had a particularly strong opinion about…
