Maybe they were just trying to give girls a realistic look at what it’s like to be a woman in a STEM field. They did a pretty good job in that regard!

LORDE, NOOOOOOO.

The scope of the offences, and the entertainers involved, was staggering and horrifying. Operation Yewtree seemed at one stage to be sweeping up every children’s entertainer who was big in those days.

Anyone I know living in Great Britain has been saying these rumors existed for decades. Good that he’s finally been given the butcher’s bill and it’s a large one.

Equal and opposite reaction time folks:

I work in corporate communications. I have to say that honestly I would fucking quit in a Jerry Maguire-esque meltdown before issuing a fucking apology about trying to help end gender discrimination. I’d be fucking out.

This is crazy. How can any of these parents be against ending gender discrimination? How has feminism become a dogwhistle for abortion? I don’t understand these people. How do they sleep at night?

This is also the End Times. I mean, this is a catalogue clothing company and they can’t donate money to the UN Women’s Fund for Women’s Equality because it causes moral outrage. In 2016.

Well, fuck. I’ve probably spent close to a thousand bucks with them on kids’ clothes and work basics. Time to write a nasty letter.

if I’m elected president, on the very first day in office, I intend to instruct the U.S. Department of Justice to open an investigation into Planned Parenthood and to prosecute any and all criminal conduct by that organization.”

Seriously, Blondi didn’t deserve that. She didn’t deserve to be owned by Hitler period, but especially that.

Proof that dogs are so saintly they don’t care if you’re literally Hitler. They like you anyway.

Power, as in institutional power, not an individual’s power. As an individual I’m pretty powerless, but looking at the big picture I benefit from my white privilege. When I say something prejudiced about another ethnic group I’m reinforcing the white power structure that sadly still runs most of our society.

Anyone can be prejudiced, but racism is prejudice + power. Again, that person made a shitty, sexist, mean, awful, very bad, jerkish, unnecessary, and prejudiced tweet, but it’s not racist. That person seems like a sexist shitbag, but saying mean things about white people isn’t racist.

But, white people cannot be materially harmed within the system by this hatred. I’m sure it stings on a personal level, but comparing it to the centuries of racist actions and horrific behavior against people of color reveals there just is no comparison. That’s why it’s not racism; it’s prejudice or discriminatory…

I get why you said that. But, racism is a systemic problem. Those who experience racism can’t, by its very definition, commit it because they are forced to the outside of the system.

I don't feel remotely guilty for being white, I just understand how racism works. The amount of outrage you put into one very long comment over the fact that I don't think non-white people complaining about white people is an issue was pretty impressive though.

It's not racist for her to talk shit about white people (we deserve it), but to assume Kesha is lying is sexist and shitty.

Kanye "asked his wife for her blessings" to... call Taylor Swift a bitch?

Super accurate! My greyhound in a wig = afghan hound (essentially greyhounds with wigs!).
