I find it just overwhelmingly depressing that organizing on every level draws in (or maybe creates?) egomaniacs that are so problematic. I’m not sure if they can both do good while also positioning themselves as a savior, but I definitely believe they believe their own hype, and someone like Shaun King will never…

While King advocates for many causes and issues I personally want addressed and prioritized, my concern is basically: where there’s smoke there’s fire. There isn’t just one accusation. There are many.

I feel like Bonfire of the Vanities should be mandatory reading these days (but for the love of God do not watch the movie).

That man is a fucking grifter. Yall should listen to the Scam Goddess episode about him. 

I can’t comment on things a lot of the time, and I’m never able to see or respond to those who have responded to me. They show up in my notifications, but they don’t show in the comments, even when I search pending as well.

You’re not alone. Even searching for comments sometimes I can’t see the replies. If I click my own comment, it won’t go right to it. It will go to the page it’s on.

Off topic: This website technically sucks. Half the time I can’t see responses/comments. And “Load More Comments” never works.

As someone with East Asian ancestry, I can give you one reason: it appears that a lot of people don’t know what East Asian means. Chinese and Japanese people are considered East Asian.

Mindy Kaling is East Asian?

Why is Mindy Kaling voicing an East Asian character instead of getting an East Asian voice actor for the role? 

DeathSantis here in Florida thinks that CRT teaches kids “to hate their country and hate each other.” None of these stunt queens know how to attack CRT with specifics because they know they don’t have to. Even if someone isn’t a captive audience for Fox News and is only vaguely aware of anything at any time, they’ll…

A few years ago when there was a rash of yoga wear that was too flimsy, I looked up from a downward dog to learn FAR more about the person directly in front of me than I ever wanted to know. First, that she did not wear underwear underneath her yoga pants (I like the extra layer so less sweat shows when I’m done) and…

Conflict averse people hate-tweet the most—they can drop a bomb online without the human element that a face-to face insult demands. It’s a haven for cowards. I’d venture a guess that’s a big draw of a place like Twitter, you can be all bark and that’s enough.

Wait... Osaka was fined for skipping the press event and then she dropped out, which she was not fined for.Federer dropped out but never skipped media events, So he wasn’t fined. If she had dropped out before skipping the press, she wouldn’t have been fined either, I assume.

I’m deeply confused by this comparison as there was no fine levied on Osaka for withdrawing from the tournament. In addition there have been multiple players who have withdrawn from these tournaments over the years, often due to injuries, without criticism from the heads of the organizations. The criticism and the…

Law Enforcement - the preferred occupation of C student high school bullies.

…but she was supposed to research the entire history of and make an informed decision on her participation? At 19 years old in 1999. With an encyclopedia brittanica, I’m assuming? Or was she supposed to go to the library and go through local newspapers in the microfilm section?

Augusta National, the golf club whose most famous event is the Masters, was an all-white club more recently (1990) than this organization was (1979). I don’t see a lot of angst or demands for apologies from Master’s winners (including Tiger Woods, who won the Masters the same year Kemper attended this debutante ball).…

In 1999 I promise that most, if not all, of this group’s horrendous history was very publicly scrubbed, buffed and polished in order to not look like a bunch of creaky old fundy KKK worshipers; it was understood by that point that it was not a good image. If she had tried to look up anything it would have been missing.
