I’m super disappointed that his true identity was squashed into an update rather than meriting its own article. This entire scenario reads to me like he was looking for his next victim to stalk and harass. How many phone numbers and email addresses did he acquire from self-described feminists before he was outed?

I’m with you. This guy needs to be on a watchlist. The woman he identified and complained about, Jessica Valenti, is the one who wrote the online harrassment article that was circulating through many people’s newsfeeds last week. There is zero chance that was a coincidence, and my gut says there’s a near-100% chance

You know what, I just thought long and hard about how that fanfiction would go, and I would not only read it, I would cherish it. Unironically and deeply, forever and ever.

Ugh ugh ugh ugh. So sorry you went through all that. Being stalked is not a compliment!!!

Not at all disagreeing with your rage, which I share, but Gurley was 28. (Feel free to edit your comment & dismiss mine, if you catch this within the editing window; I won’t take offense if this post disappears!)

Men have terrible eyesight, so if a man seems interested in you, freeze and remain completely immobile until his attention is drawn to someone else. Men compensate for their poor eyesight with a heightened sense of smell, so be sure to wear perfume that allows you to blend into your surroundings. For example, rub

This picture gives me the full-bodied icks.

THIS point should be made more often. Too often the “female purity” folks and the “homophobia” folks have mindsets that stem from the same root problem: (1) they have little to no respect for the group of people they find most sexually attractive, (2) they believe everyone else is just like them in terms of

Agreed that she was (badly) probably trying to make this argument, but “people are stupid, shitty, and not at all taught to control themselves” is kinda the point, right? We’re talking about teenaged boys in school getting distracted by teenaged girls. This is the perfect time to teach boys that even if a girl is

1000% this. I would bet anything that the Game of Thrones finale was a driving force behind the decision, too. The speculation about Jon Snow alive-or-dead has been so wild, I think they believed they could imitate that frenzy with the “OMG! Who’s dead?!?” reaction.

Dear still killed three, Ke’Arre Stewart, 29, an Iraq War veteran; Jennifer Tarkovsky, 35, a mother there to support a friend; and Garret Swasey, a police officer who had responded to the call.

This. You could throw me back in time anywhere/anywhen and I’d have only the vaguest idea what was going on. I appreciate that she knows some bits and pieces (herbology, field medicine from her time as a nurse during the war, and her particular knowledge of Frank’s family tree) to make things interesting, but doesn’t

God, I want to work for you. I started practicing yoga overseas, and it's damn near impossible to find the same kind of studio now that I'm back in the States. I'm getting my certification in June, but nervous about finding a school where I can teach the kinds of classes I love.

YOU HAVE TO WIN. I don’t want to live in a world where something grosser than this is possible.

I had food poisioning exactly one time. I puked, I shat, I puked, I shat. Then it was time to puke again, but I was barely done shitting. So I turned to the sink, which is alongside the toilet, stood up, twisted and leaned just enough to aim my projectile vomit into the sink...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

THIS is what makes me furious. Past 20 weeks, the mother is usually saying goodbye to a wanted pregnancy. Half the time, they’re ending it because the child’s quality of life will be too poor and they don’t want to give birth to a baby who will live a short painful life and then die. So the woman and doctor involved

Sometimes I think about the fact that humanity is finally ready to solve all of its problems aside from the natural disasters. The smartest person in the world has access to all the knowledge of the entirety of human existence, plus the best technology ever produced. There should be nothing stopping us. But we keep

You’ve gotten a lot of responses already and might be feeling overwhelmed, but I’ll add mine in case it’s useful (to you or others).

Hi there. Based on your comment history, I don’t think we’ll see eye to eye on much, but I’d like to offer some responses just in case any of them provide the insight you’re asking for. I don’t know what will stick and what won’t, so I apologize for the length of my response. Here goes:
