I’m Mexican, and a black coworker called me the name of the only other Mexican in our department bc she thought I was her. She felt really bad, but I understood, because I’ve also been guilty of this with people of other races. It’s weird.

Familiarity reduces this, though, which is a nice little benefit of diversity.

I am Asian and I have difficulty telling white people and black people apart.

So fat shaming is bad, but wealth shaming is good? Got it.

Thank you. “Eat the rich,” and all that, but she didn’t even do anything tone deaf here, let alone wrong.

If Judge Gilman had an ounce of humanity left he would resign in disgrace and slink away, never to be seen or heard from again.

Indeed. Well said. How dare this person who was fortunate enough to be born to a wealthy family attempt to succeed at anything. Instead of working hard to challenge herself in her sport, she shoudl sit around and do nothing, thumbing her nose at all the poors. That would be a much better choice for her.

Judges have absolute immunity for judicial decisions within their jurisdiction. And jurisdiction in that context is interpreted extremely broadly.

Yeah, you don’t offer bail or an ankle braclet to a violent domestic abuser who was caught armed after kidnapping and torturing his wife...especially when they lives six miles from one another (says so in source). This judge fucked up royally and it cost this woman her life.

But he was such a promising young man. Locking him up wouldn’t have done him any good!

Fuck Judge Gary Gilman. This woman’s death is on your hands asshole. And as usual incompetent men won’t suffer consequences while this woman is now dead.

Seriously! The woman has been an athlete for a long time and does really well. Not sure what the point of this article was other than make fun or a hardworking daughter of a billionaire. Basically relating to an accomplished woman on her own in relation to a man as if her father has anything to do with anything in…

The writer didn’t know what they were talking about, which is pretty typical. There are hunter and jumper divisions at the Hampton Classic. There is no steeplechase. Totally separate sport.

former gawker needs to chill w/ all the uneducated commentary on riding. it’s all gibberish to you. so maybe don’t write about it :)

Ellie. You're above this. Why?

Some overlook it even when the guy is penniless.

Did you miss the whole “You could hit me, Daddy” series of tweets he recieved/receives? I’m assuming some people are trolling, and other people missed the photos and thought that was some kind of sexy spanking?

I resist assuming that money and fame are the inherent underlying reasons people are willing to date Chris Brown. I’m sure it’s a draw, but it’s not like poorer and less (or not at all) famous men with a history of violence have serious problems finding dates. Being attractive and charismatic can make people ignore a…
