Well, seeing as how that’s not the point of the podcast, I don’t really know what you’re trying to comment about.

The kind of person who wants to critically examine the ways in which particular works may have influenced their thinking (or the thinking of other children)? The kind of person who may be inclined to share those sorts of works with their own children, but doesn’t want to reinforce harmful, outdated tropes?  

This is great journalism and excellent work overall. I know this kind of reporting takes a lot of effort and I really appreciate that Kotaku continues to report on issues like these. 

you have two options if you want sex and your spouse doesnt:

PLEASE include either the National Suicide Prevention Hotline or some other relevant resource when posting articles that discuss suicide or self harm. It is genuinely not that hard. It seems that Jezebel has fully committed to not including this information on recent articles addressing suicide.

You are defending child abuse because a girl said naughty words to you. I can unreservedly state that yes I WOULD argue against her mom hitting her, and yes she SHOULD resent people who are violent towards her. The fact that the only punishment for “atrocious behavior” you can conjure is violence says a lot about you…

The thing is, there are so many different types of parents raising kids who have ASD, and the ones who aren’t crazy don’t get any press. This woman is not some sort of sympathetic face for how hard it is to raise kids with disabilities, she is an outlier who weighed the risks against the benefits and made a poor…

And I hope every one of them gets great big gobs of money from Epstein’s estate. It won’t undo a single injustice but you just try and tell any decent human being they don’t deserve it 10 times over.

I’m from St Louis City, which is almost 50% black and voted overwhelmingly for Democrats. We sure as hell do NOT want to be slumped in with the shitehole state of Missouri! So don’t lump us with the rest of the idiot state, thanks. The same goes for Kansas City, which is hugely diverse and Democratic, too.

“I realize that’s our own stuff and not necessarily their burden”

ALL of this. Her immediate family is all gone- dying within weeks of one another. Her father died years ago. I’ve had deaths more distant which utterly destabilized me yet she’s kept on giving us self-loving, empowered energy while acknowledging how bereft she feels. We’ve collectively been giving Kanye West passes…

The problem is men discussing the fuckability of women as if women were inanimate objects marketed to consumers for the purpose of fucking, and the variable appearance of women is just the manufacturer catering to the variability of individual tastes, and thus it’s perfectly reasonable for a man to have a sniffy, “I’d…

“The topic of your beauty should not have been shared over public discourse.”

Nobody cries louder than a bully.

The reason there’s a shortage of foster parents and they’re always recruiting is because the agencies and their social workers are shitty, shady and fucked up to foster parents and all the children they serve! Talk publicly about foster care and wait to be bombarded with strangers coming up to you to rail about the…

Jewish guy here, and I know you’re joking but you’ve hit on a crucial point - antisemitism gets a pass in a lot of circles because it’s perceived as punching up.

I take it you haven't visited the comments section there in at least a couple of weeks, it's absolutely been flooded with "they were illegally arresting him", "he was accelerating OUT of the crowd, not into it" and a bunch of similar horseshit, much of it with triple-digit likes, so, yeah, not grays.

yeah, this is exactly my point. i’m not calling this dangerous and potentially murderous woman a “karen.”

“Clearly she was the aggressor,” Stahl told the Herald. “She was being asked to leave. She’s being belligerent and she pushes her face right into his face.”
