"I like doing as little work as possible." is what I think he means.

What the hell type of question is this? Obviously, Captain I Think I'm Being Snarkily Clever But Just Showing Off My Shitty Reading Comprehension. My comment was referring to the legal age of consent, as in the age where a young person can legally consent to sex with an adult. Try harder next time.

Y'all, I found a review of Tao Lin's aptly-titled book Eeeee Eee Eeee. I would like to share some excerpts from the review with you.

Oh, no worries! No harm done, I'm pretty sure :)

Oh, oh my god I'm sorry, I didn't know.

Seriously. Reading that quote, all I could think was "I guess someone didn't like The Goldfinch."

Not to disagree with your overall sentiment or anything, but you're wanting to give him a hug, not her – E.R. is a (trans) man.

I like small dogs. Some dogs are small. Those are the dogs I like. Dogs that are under 3 pounds. Those are what I would call small dogs. But some dogs are larger than small dogs. I like some medium dogs, but they are not small dogs. I like the Shiba Inu because that is a small dog. But not as small as a…

Yeah, that line makes me want to shatter someone's teeth on a curb.

"The life of a teenage girl is just collateral damage in the messy pursuit of brilliance."

As the survivor of a relationship with a lit dude (yes, published with 2 books if that matters) who victimizes younger women (including me, and in similar ways to what Kennedy reports, although I wasn't that young. My weight was a big sticking point—if I weighed much over 100 lbs he would comment on how I needed to…

Well I'll be damned. I legit thought the age of consent was 18 across the entire country. You taught me something new today and I'm disturbed by it.

After that Edward Champion article the other day where he went into hysterics over Emily Gould, I was googling around and found out that she has a cooking/talk show on Youtube. Her most watched EP was one featuring, you guessed it, Tao Lin. Good Lord is he uncomfortable to watch interact with a woman.

In Pennsylvania, that's not rape. Age of consent is 16 no matter the age difference.

"At least he didn't rape her"? A 22 year old admits to sex with a 16 child and somehow it isn't rape? I must be missing something.

This is so fucked up. Him being 22 and her being 16 already is scary enough. But he has a history of creepy behavior? And there were "problems..." God I'm trying so hard to keep calm. I actually wish there was a way to punch someone through the computer screen. Ugh.

Who the fuck actually thinks this guy is brilliant? I've always been puzzled by his career. He's a profoundly shitty writer and an obvious creep. Always has been.

Yeah, but Girl Scouts are far more inclusive of LGBT and non-religious kids and adults.

Girl Scout troops are very much a product of their leaders. Mine was all camping and survival.

The problem is less Girls Scouts than individual troops and their leaders. Mine was kind of split with my mom pushing hard for camping and survival stuff, another pushing for science and education stuff, and another pushing for "things the girls will like" which translated to fashion, beauty, and the lighter side of…
