“Let’s get the factual facts out there. She’s [Jannie Ligons] not innocent the way people think she is. She had a bust in the ‘80s … But we couldn’t present that to the jury... This is not a woman that’s, you know, a soccer mom or someone that’s credible in society.”

Just another bullet-ridden day in the good ole US of A.

Believe me, there’s nothing assholish about cheering on the representation of people who aren’t pasty white and, historically, have gotten a bum rap on television.

When you’ve lived with decades of having your own race under-represented in the TV shows you love, there is nothing wrong with celebrating a bit when it happens. Why are you even bothered by it?

To some people, the goriest thing is the worst. To others, a storyline created where a character, who’s already been treated brutally for the entire series who finally looked like she was gaining some agency, marries a sadist who rapes her on their wedding night and the scene ends up being about Theon’s fee-fees is…

Anyone who tries to spank me will never spank anything again. I don’t find spanking to be erotic or loving at all; in fact I find it to be the opposite. These films say that women need to be kept in line by men; even if they must do so through the use of physical violence. It is reflective of a parent-child…

Buncha comments about dude’s boners right next to comments by women about how fucking nausea-inducingly terrible this is. THANKS DUDES WITH BONERS.

Right? Seems only fair. The next time someone catcalls me on the street, can I shoot them? The next time someone grabs at my clothes on the subway, can I smash their face in with a brick? The next homeless dude who yells that he wants to have sex with me when I walk by, can I beat his head in with a tire iron, or…

Ain’t that the truth? Men are always getting violent because a woman embarrassed him, or beat him at something, or hurt his fee-fees. This freaked me out:

It’d be hard to go wrong with iZombie. I’ve had zombie fatigue for a while, now, but I find I generally enjoy iZombie. It’s an interesting take on the genre and actually uses its central conceit in cool ways, both good and shockingly evil (that’s about as spoiler free as I can make that summary)

It bothers me that so many of these MRA types accuse feminism of not doing enough for men when they could be out getting stuff done themselves. Getting rid of the feminists won’t stop women from making fun of mustaches, but he’d rather complain about them than put any effort himself into correcting supposed double…

Trump really struggles when he’s asked to give specifics. He’s like Lois on Family Guy when she runs for mayor and all she shouts is “9/11" and people cheer. I genuinely try and pay attention during GOP debates and when he’s forced to give specifics on virtually anything he instead shouts buzzwords and is completely…

I live in Cambodia, and we have a term for this: Accidental Sex Tourist.

It’s incredibly common. People have this thing where they think they are omg sooo speshul with their blonde hair and accents whilst abroad. Some guy lures them in by telling them they are the most beautiful thing in the entire world, meanwhile he scams them out of thousands and in some cases millions of dollars. Just…

Well the tournament’s kind of boring right now so I’ll feed the troll.

Nope. Former actress here, so I’ve read plenty of breakdowns. The breakdowns for men and women are markedly different. Throw race into the mix and you get into the real bullshit. The biggest thing I’ve noticed is that men’s characters aren’t as defined by how fuckable they are, and are described in a much more complex…

This is the thing I don’t get. Why is no one denying it? Surely if it were not something related to sexual assault, Montague would want his name cleared, right? Anything else he could have been expelled for would be better than sexual assault.

It’s not that. It’s when the outsider gets accepted into the culture, and then goes on to become the greatest living embodiment of that culture is what we (speaking as an Asian American here) have a problem with. I have absolutely zero problem with you learning martial arts. I would have a big problem if you declared…

No fucking way this will go anywhere. Ideologically, maybe, but where is the money going to come from? Schools are shutting down and there has been a pay freeze for teachers for the last decade. The school my mom teaches at has extended the school day so they have fewer days per year because they can’t afford the…

You also completely missed the point of the article. The point isn’t the white people can’t be good at martial arts, it’s that the story trope of “White Dude goes to foreign land and becomes better at martial arts than any of the natives” is a racist trope that could have been rectified.
