Oh, well done!

And some of them can fly:

Just remember Ms. Piggy's advice: never eat more than you can lift.

Since they live, like, a bazillion years, does this mean you will inherit them some day? Are you ready for that legacy?

These are lousy photos. I could care less about Cat Marnell and her privilege, but the fact that Terry Richardson makes big bucks with his tiny talent makes my eyelid twitch.

Christian fundamentalists, and the Chinese government. Both trying to control information, both swinging a sword at the sea.

Oh, look, you found a way to tie our two comments together - you are the best. I also have a similar view on marriage as ritual - although it does mean that if things don't work out, all the people who invested in you emotionally at your ceremony are going to have an opinion!

Yeah, I think divorce probably is much harder/more complicated in many places. But I also think people are uncomfortable being confronted by such a personal issue, and want to dismiss it and move on. They may even think they are putting a positive spin on it, rather than just belittlling your experience. I just…

Oops! Not sure why this posted as a response to your comment rather than in the general thread - not really a propos. Sorry. I must have hit the wrong button.

Should technology exist in a moral vacuum? I think societies and communities grapple with the implications of new technologies, and that sometimes we step away from or delimit innovations when they are deemed more harmful than helpful. To adopt a "throw your hands up and just accept that this is the reality" attitude…

And this is why we should be talking about XOJane and the New York scene and not Marnell. She is just one sad little piece of a big fucked up puzzle.

That's it. We should distinguish between the person and the structure that props her up.

"Intersectionality" refers to a concept that has a valid place in this discussion, but it's also not that most people encounter outside of university. By framing your comment in such a snarky way, you come across as judging people for not sharing your education.

Steve Carell probably has the same publicist as Ryan Gosling. That woman is a genius.

Cat Marnell is privileged, but she is a victim of that "privilege". She sounds completely messed up by the structure that rewards her, and I think that is because she has no idea why she deserves those rewards. Because she doesn't. She is rewarded based on arbitrary standards that have to do with being born with a…

2nd-ing #COTD.

Where is this from? Must know!

Thank you for making that distinction.
