Yeah, I’m pretty sure fried rice requires frying the rice. This is not fried rice.

I mean, sleeping in a Starbucks is maybe suspect. But I’ve definitely fallen asleep on the train home from work multiple times, and seen plenty of other people do the same. I don’t think that’s something to freak out over.

Damn. Good for you.

Ah yes, so many of the world’s problems could be solved if we were all just shittier to each other more often.

Did you read the last two paragraphs of the article or did you not get that far? Also the comment I was responding to.

I’m not. When I was in school, a teacher was openly gross towards pretty much all the female students, thanking us if we wore skirts and inviting us to write on the board, making dirty jokes. I complained and everyone else (teachers and students) told me I was overreacting and to shut up because he was the “cool…

Unfortunately I doubt legalization will be retroactive (even though I fully agree it should be). After prohibition ended, not many of the people who had been arrested for alcohol offenses were pardoned. That said, California is on the right track with legalization because they’ve allowed for prisoners to apply for…

I’m so sorry you have that internal monologue of self loathing. It’s such a hard thing to break out of. And the funny thing is, all these assholes that have to insult other people for their body shape (generally to make themselves feel “better” than others) under the guise of concern for public health, they refuse to…

Yeah, she’s basically a professional troll. Which makes this article the equivalent of bringing some asshole out of the grays.

Yup. All I could think once I realized it was this girl was “ugh, this asshole again.” I will not watch the video and I wish they hadn’t posted it here, because it was clear from the last uproar with her that she does shit specifically to get outrage clicks. And then continues trolling people afterward to continue…

Yeah, I think it’s really hard for moms in that situation to not feel guilty, and like they missed something critical. But I also think it’s so common for teens to withdraw and go through these emotional crises alone. I know I did. Personally I came close to self harm at many points in my adolescence/teen years but…

Definitely. I saw the video first and thought it was great. Then I saw the SNL performance and realized just how much the video was needed to make it whole. Parts of the song do get stuck in my head, but it’s not brilliant lyrically.

While I agree with your message, I think you have an overly optimistic view of the commenters on this site if you think this site is an unfriendly space for TERFs. They all show up whenever there’s a piece like this.

This is a great piece. I will add though, my impression is that class is also a huge factor (obviously in addition to race). White crack and meth addicts have generally always been the punchline of jokes too, because they’re poor so fuck em right? The opioid crisis affects wealthy white people, so I think that’s…

Elon Musk is a misogynist asshole. At least according to his ex-wife and mother of his children. He’s since gone on to date many way-too-young-for-him girls.

The crazy part is that if they had been white, not only would they not have been convicted with zero evidence, even if they had been it would have been like 6 months probation or some shit like Brock Turner, with people sobbing over how the fact that they raped someone has ruined their lives.

She was born into the religion, so I’m sure she grew up with a very warped view of their practices. There was actually a really fascinating blog series I read a while back by a former Scientologist who does a very good job of breaking down the ways in which the religion was helpful and meaningful to her as she grew…

Meh. I try not to judge people too hard on their personal religious beliefs if they’re not being assholes about it or trying to convert others. I think Moss falls into that group (unlike say, Tom Cruise).

I don’t think that’s a risk.

I initially read your story that they had never received their beers. But they just didn’t receive the check fast enough? That’s when you walk up to the host/bar and ask for a check. Or at the very least you estimate and leave some money on the table. There were a lot of solutions - they made a conscious choice to…
