Most of this is predictably whatever, but I do wish I'd had the info on "good fats" 10 years ago when I had gained weight and the father of my then-boyfriend thought it was appropriate to criticize me for ordering guacamole because "you know, avocados are very fattening."

Supposedly they had serious dirt on her and were going to run a piece that made her (and Chris Martin too, maybe) look incredibly bad. So she got all her friends with any pull to refuse to work with VF on anything in the future, unless they changed they profile on her. They were basically both threatening each other

Amazing! And was that Dumbledore narrating?

Anything with Branson is pretty enticing.

Did you read the book first? That's so often the kiss of death for a movie.

I'm really disappointed that other commenters aren't seeing my point

WHAT? That'sa solid "chick flick" that features close and complex relationships between a whole bunch of interesting women.

Get back to me when the statistical likelihood that a victim of torture will be in the room is the same that a victim of rape or sexual abuse will be. Or if a victim of torture continued to insist that that phrase was traumatic to them and people kept telling them to get over it.

Yeah I'm bummed about the recast. This dude was awesome.

Sorry I misread your comment. It seemed like you were saying I was trying to have a go at everyone who likes porn, but now I see what you mean. And I totally agree with you, of course there are feminists who like porn. Honestly, it wasn't actually the "joke" that pissed me off this much, it was that second one about

Just because I didn't qualify my statements doesn't mean I'm trying to demonize all porn or think that there can't be overlap between feminists and porn viewers. But are you going to say there isn't a large percentage of Porn Hub's twitter followers who don't buy into and accept rape culture? What I'm taking issue

Never mind my comment.

Where did I say that all men who watch porn treat women like shit? I was commenting on her "apology" tweet which said that the joke was okay because it wasn't intended for a specifically feminist audience. There are obviously people following Porn Hub's twitter feed who passively accept and perpetuate rape culture and

For me the worst ones were the ones that suggested that this commercial celebrates not learning English. As if holding on to your native language automatically means you won't or can't be multilingual.

Said more eloquently and in more detail than I could give right now

Seriously. His first tweet was bad, but the follow up tweets make him sound so self-satisfied. Congratulations, you read the news. But it's somewhat easier to have sympathy for people whose deaths result from circumstances entirely outside of themselves. Sympathy for people who suffer from drug addiction and the

The tweet wasn't intended to offend anyone, you have to realize my target demographic on twitter isn't the same as say, Mother Jones.

Haha, yeah. The one good thing about the city I currently live in is that the population doesn't seem to be interested in literary fiction, so great new releases are always available at the library. But that means I walk out with an armload of books - way more than I could get through in 3 weeks. Gotta figure that

Being stupid should hurt.

This just makes me feel bad about myself because I started a 250 page book on Friday and haven't even cracked the halfway mark yet.
