I know this is a funny story but in all seriousness, Girl Scouts is a fantastic organization. When the Boy Scouts kicked out leaders who were gay, the Girl Scouts proudly supported their leaders. When the Boy Scouts loudly stated their organization was Christian based, the Girl Scouts said theirs was open to

The whole site has been really fucking snarky recently. It’s almost tiring reading one sarcastic snark after another. This is a good thing. Can we just have a good thing and call it that? For once?

As a Black woman speaking specifically to and about Black women, there is much that Beyonce can do to piss off or not be enough for white feminists, and when she does do something, it will continue to be picked apart. So now since Beyonce hasn’t commented on Kesha, the measurement of a feminist is if she comments on

50 Cent has always been a dumb-dumb. One of his best ideas he shared when I worked as a designer for G-Unit:

This. But also, why is this story suddenly about who didn’t post on twitter about it? Aren’t we shifting the narrative here?

Well, it seems Taylor was likely absorbed in being maid of honor for her best friend this weekend. Let’s give her a moment to change her focus.

yes, it’s more than “not exactly what happened”. and although im not sure if all the details you’ve now reported were available at the time, there was MORE than enough context publicly, widely available at the time of the original “report”. had anyone at jezebel had any journalistic integrity, you would have known

I’ve known Meryl for over 25 years. She is one of the most generous, gracious human beings I’ve ever met, full stop. This particular case of faux outrage really pissed me off.

It’s a huge loss, and mourning with all its stages is understandable and warranted. With time you will gain a better understanding of the opportunities this event has created in your life. For now, maybe take some time to process the event before responding. I’ve been undirected in life—underemployed, as well as fired

Yeah, after this correction, where it seems like Meryl is not saying “white people count as diversity” (which is ludicrous) but “I can relate to films from other cultures because we share a common humanity,” (which is utterly uncontroversial) the people who need redemption (which still seems like a strong word) are

I love Kathryn Hahn

She probably didn’t need to insist that her colleagues were not “fighting the good fight” in attending tho.

And this was an opportunity to participate at the government level. I think refusing it was a grave mistake.

They could have at least linked to Aislinn’s own statement about why she declined to attend.

I strongly suspect that Pulley is one of those people who will get angry with you for agreeing with her.

The Guardian spoke to Aislinn Pulley, co-founder of Black Lives Matter Chicago, who declined attending the gathering, saying it “would only serve to legitimize the false narrative that the government is working to end police brutality and the institutional racism that fuels it.”

what if... that were the obvious point of this essay

I appreciate your willingness to write a story that reflects deep ambivalence. I think there isn’t enough of that anymore (everything is always strident and polarized) but you did a great job sitting with the murkiness of what this all means about Bowie’s legacy.

Straw Man argument.
