I think that you’re confusing the strawman argument that people like her give with ACTUAL cultural appropriation. I have no problem with people wearing the clothing associated with my culture, incorporating our foods, etc. That is not appropriation. Appropriation is when OUR VOICES ARE SILENCED, and their…

Admission: I like it when people appropriate my culture. It feels like acceptance. Is that odd?

Hey, hey, hey! Can you throw Alaska in there (whole thing, not just the little SE chunk)? I was born in one of those states, have relatives in another, and have lived in the Frozen North for half a lifetime.

Good luck keeping the Free State of Jefferson in your coalition.

Yup I have to buy them a size smaller and wait for them to stretch out.

Oh, yuck. Really? I’m just happy that my A/C keeps my piano in tune. I’d be extra happy if it kept black death mold from growing everywhere.

YES! Thank you! This was my beef with them as well. I was really happy I got them on a zulily sale instead of full (*cough*ridiculous*cough*) price.

I secretly love that because I pretend I lost twenty pounds in the course of the day.

Yeah, I mean its a question of personal taste, but I also agreed with Gunn’s criticisms. I spent half an hour just reading the comments on WashPost- they are fascinating in the diversity of what women are looking for! Sleeves. Oh my. So much said on that.

it’s cool and all, but i personally, am for building regulations and enforcing them. renting a non-code compliant space out on airbnb doesnt sit well with me.

a deep aversion to air conditioning

Seems plausible. I mean, OJ was just trying to stab his helmet when those people got in the way. It got blown out of proportion and basically ruined his life. As a result, years later when was innocently trying to commit armed robbery on his helmet, and some jerks just happened to be in his path, poor OJ ended up…

Dammit. With an infallible excuse like this one on tap, we’re bound to see athletes wearing helmets anywhere and everywhere in the future.

As the parent of a munchkin with pretty severe cognitive impairment, I 100% agree. I’m a nonviolent person but I have a strange Mama Bear urge to beat the shit out of this monster.

He’s not Southern. He’s Texan.

Most of u know that I have been a special needs teacher/administrator for nearly 18 years, the only job I have ever known. Excuse me now, there is a huge lump in my throat and I’m sobbing as I write this. Of the hundreds of children with special needs that I have worked with, I can tell you that every single one of…
