I hope Twitter keeps circulating this story with his image until the end of time.

The number of Johnny Depp apologists out there is so depressing. I know he’s a lot of women’s Manic Pixie Dream Man Forever, but Jesus. I don’t care if it was alcohol/drug-related and he’s a real nice guy when sober, I don’t care if she “provoked” him, I don’t care if Amber Heard is or isn’t a gold digger, domestic…

Grizabella is on stage for like less than 10 minutes and really doesn’t have to do much beyond sing Memory. If they’re going to get a “name” for any role, that would be the one.

Did anyone listen to the This American Life recently with a woman describing her life after her genitals were mutilated in childhood? It’s a devastating piece but just so well done. She talks about confronting her mother who had the procedure done to her daughter even though she had also gone through it. It’s so…

This is one of the saddest stories I’ve ever read.

not wrong to me. i’m always relieved when people with bad ideas express them in the places i already know to avoid! racist forced-birth rhetoric from a white cisdude at a catholic institution? hmm, check.

I would say it’s cool if you think YOUR behavior should change when YOU get pregnant. I’d say it’s less cool if you think MY behavior should change when I get pregnant.

At eight weeks, it is called an embryo and about the size of a blueberry. WTF are cops doing telling the news/world about a blueberry-sized miscarried embryo? Shame on the cops.

In my experience, hospitals do absolutely nothing when you have means and you’re miscarrying before 10 weeks. I can’t imagine what it would…

As an biracial person, 100% of my relationships are interracial.

I can completely understand how therapeutic that would be. I’ve been going to shooting ranges on occasion since I was 12, and there is definitely a sense of calm and control that comes with being able to confidently, skillfully, and responsibly handle a weapon. It’s not for everyone, but I do think there is value in…

I have worked in “zoo world” as a veterinary technician. For her to have been attacked means that she or someone else made a fatal mistake in knowing which gates or shift doors were open between the day exhibit and night quarters. I grieve her death and sorrow for the survivors.

If you’re up in this piece using it as the usual Certain-Kind-of-Poster platform to smugly use a blanket denunciation on all zoos as animal sadness factories making fist-fulls of cash I would like to invite you to go vigorously fuck yourself for maintaining a tone deaf and totally un-nuanced idea of how habitat loss,…

She would not have been in the same area as the animal except by accident either by keeper fault or exhibit design error. This is an AZA accredited zoo, which means that they would never allow such an interaction.

Having worked in zoos for 7 years in my life, and having personally known Stacey, maybe I can add some of my own experience.

I said this on another thread, but some zoos do actually help and protect animals. I’m actually not the biggest zoo fan, but hearing of the work the San Diego Zoo and others have done has changed my mind a bit. These tigers are dying out and a lot of zoos have gone into the “business” of cultivation and sustainability…

There are a couple hundred Malayan tigers left; just leaving them all where they live is maybe not the best way to still have Malayan tigers in ten years.

I want to run for Congress, win and draft a bill to make it legal for American citizens to punch these guys in the dick.

goddamnit.

It was a piss-poor political speech from a redneck who makes duck calls, you sanctimonious redneck.
