Nowhere in “legislative language” does it say that treating a mental illness is oppression.

Fuck, you write a whole reasonable piece and I almost start to agree with you and then you make an exception for Bruce Fucking Springsteen? If anybody needs their shit cut to a reasonable length it’s acts that ooze self-importance.

The complete list of times when it’s appropriate for a white person to use the N-Word:

Nah, fam. “Get your media training” is always an intermediary step between the extreme and the dramatic. Not everything has to be the Dark Knight.

You know what’s (almost) hilarious? I was reading late night news and he’d already backed up so fast he ran over that cat who’s always making noise in the yard after dark. I’m sure he sensed that Michael Harriot was coming for him and he’d have to take the “Killer” out of his moniker since Da Real

He oughta have seen the movie - I thought his music was on the soundtrack.

This!!!! I’m nexting any man that calls this a “good” movie to this day. Boondock Saints (1999), Way of the Gun (2000) and Intermission (2003) were part of a lame spat of crime movies that felt the need to show a woman being cold-bashed straight in the face by one of the leading men within the first 5 minutes (Ryan

Thank you. Interesting article, but the author has a very clear bias and agenda. I agree with some of the general points—classically yoga was always a luxurious preoccupation of the relatively well-off males from the Brahmin caste, and not in the least the domain of ordinary folk. I definitely agree that fallen Indian

Thanks for posting this! I’ve followed Dana for a while, and I had purchased her classes through the Cody app because it was so nice to see a body like mine doing yoga. I didn’t know anything about this drama until she posted about Cody being purchased, but I have noticed that their instructors are now all the same. I

So one HuffPo article written by a guy who begins by admitting that he knew nothing about yoga when he started trumps 150 years of history? I can’t imagine why Iyengar would say that as Krishnamacharya’s intensive study of Patanjali’s sutras is well documented. I also notice the article lacks a direct quote from

I referenced several yogic philosophy scriptures dating back centuries in my earlier comments. They are available in translation. What do you mean, “Nope”?! They exist, Google them.

**clears throat, adjusts glasses** Actually, it was Iyengar’s teacher, Krishnamacharya, who catalyzed Western yoga as we understand it (which btw is not what he taught) via his male students B.K.S. Iyengar, K. Pattahbi Jois, father of ashtanga yoga, and T.K.V. Desikachar, father of viniyoga. There was also a woman who

None of what you wrote is true or correct. Please don’t further muddy the waters.

I’m surprised that it has taken the public this long to take Alo to task. They feature all white extremely thin models (about a month ago they added a few image of a woman of color to their site for the first time in years). I don’t know why we women don’t take more of a stand on how we spend our dollars. 

Fess up, was this article an excuse to trawl instagram for hot yoga instructor pics/yoga people doing goofy poses on rocks with the gravest possible faces?

Oh look. All the pro-Alo folks are thin. Shocking. I’ll stick to my Old Navy shit, thanks. I’m only sweating in them.

“ JL does do the whole sloppy, drunk single friend routine and it’s treated like an endearing trait. “

Just the fact that this person thinks Tiffany can “embarrass the race” is enough to never listen to a word he says.

as sassy as a room-temperature piece of jicama.

As a senior manager, if one of my employees initiated and pursued sexual relations with me, that would not absolve me of my responsibility to not take advantage of the situation. The dynamic between us inherently puts the onus on me to act responsibly and professionally even when the other individual isn’t respecting
