I think unless people are whining about trigger warnings in say, Jezebel discussing celebrities shilling a new diet product (because... that is sorta what Jezebel does? It should go without saying?), it is all very valid. Imagine signing up for a course unaware that you will study very triggering material, like

The debate over safe spaces, too, has become cartoonized, a shorthand way to complain about privileged millennials

Number 5 is like, Go back in time and crush a man in 2001. Them shoes!

Shouldn’t one internship be enough? How much free labor are we allowing companies to squeeze out of kids? Dickens would shit himself over this.

Can it really be called an apology if he didn’t really apologize for anything specific to anyone specific? He says he didn’t choose the right words. Well, which incident is he talking about? Which words does he regret saying? And who does he think he hurt personally?

His apology is the same as “I’m sorry that you are sensitive and took offense.”

No he’s not. If he was sorry for anything he would have been specific. Narcissists only apologize when they feel like they’ve lost their adoring fans. Maybe he’ll continue to ‘ask’ for forgiveness, but as soon as he gets one day of good press he’ll be back to slut shaming puppies and toddlers.

“Bowing down”:

Trump shall over comb.

While I do at least somewhat agree that friends should feel free to have their own opinions about others etc etc, there is a gray area. I was completely heartbroken when my 6th grade best friend developed a crush on my ex-boyfriend who I had just found out had been paid to go out with me. To not only feel humiliated,

Well, they found it very shocking. (EYE ROLL)

Same with my husband, minus the kids. I am just a few years into marriage and I am getting so exhausted with trying to solve all his emotional shit for him. Emotions make him crazy. I have only just begun to appreciate the irony of “women can’t control their emotions”.

Just to add fuel to your stroke...

men really need to learn how to have emotions, recognize them, name them, then address and deal with them. controlling or suppressing just isn’t the answer.

Men really need to learn how to control their emotions.

I am right there with you. This Pastor is yet another in a long line of patriarchy-minded ‘spiritual leaders’.

Noah is nothing impressive but the Daily Show is still a million times better than the Nightly Show. TDS still has good correspondents and good segments to hold themselves up. TNS sucked in every way other than Larry Wilmore. What they should actually do is have Larry Wilmore replace Trevor Noah.

Would rather have seen Trevor Noah go.
