It’s a giant concentration camp.

I’m just saying—if our human tendency toward hatred and violence ever manifests as a disease that wipes out our species, it would be poetry if it started in Gaza.

So hold on, a girl who is trafficked and preyed upon, forced in prostitution, kills a man who picks her up, is given over 50 years, but a grown ass man killing his girlfriend, pouring bleach on her, and not calling 911 until she’s definitely dead only gets 3 years? Yeah, I can definitely see how he’s more capable of…

Speaking of Keith Sweat, which I will this entire post, JACCI MCGHEE IS AN UNSUNG HERO and a personal style icon.

Harpo, who dis woman?

You can't be the King of R&B if you gotta stand on your tippy toes and kick a foot back to kiss a woman. 

I remember when people used to consider what Slim from 112 did as pushing the boundaries of singing. I also remember when Trey Songz was known as Goat Throat. Here we are though. That slippery slope has led us to Homeroom Hakeem getting on the Soul Train Awards for doing karaoke. It’s inflated his ego to the point he t…

Not exactly. They’re actually serial killers who have found the perfect cover for their hobby — being a police officer lets you kill with impunity.

Sting operations or assassinations? Reads like assassinations.

I met him at a con a few years ago: yes, he is fantastically beautiful IRL. Through a series of fortunate events, he invited friends and me to a private/non-con-related party. It was a really nice, low-key, small BBQ, like a block party (also: Lisa was there briefly on the early side, but left when more people…

What an egotistical jerk. I would totally not call him again after the sex.

I know so many “Jimmy’s” in real life. Men who would call themselves “good guys”. Men who are my friends. She hits the nail on the head with the drawing of the line. These Jimmy’s tell me that obviously, the Bill Cosby’s of the world are despicable, but that what Louis CK did was OK, because he didn’t physically touch…

^THIS. And she nails that at the end of the monologue. The link is WORTH IT.

Yea you don’t have to tell me twice-- we had a nanny for years, cleaning lady now comes and extra half day per week in addition to her regular day. I have a dog walker, my teens take a shuttle to school and the older one takes Uber. Handyman fixes most stuff, the rest we ignore. Just leaves cooking, tidying, and a lot…

I don’t think it’s mandated in the sense of you’re being pushed out of your office in order to use it, rather it’s a use it or lose it policy. You get 6 months to use in the first year (for example), are you just not going to take 6 months of paid time to not be in your office, not pay for childcare? Even if you’re…

I didn’t think of that message. The idea that men don’t get used to doing lots of parenting duties because they get shunted back into their workplace so soon is interesting.

This village embodies what, I believe, men fear at the most deep, existential level: a society in which they’re unnecessary.

Anyone want to have a men free commune in the US? Maybe some place warm...

Hope their village prospers, their animals are always healthy and that they always have food and peace.

The only way to overcome this kind of societal programming is to MANDATE paternity leave. One of the Scandinavian countries is doing that. Fathers are required to take some time off after a child’s birth. Without that, if it’s just maternity leave and the option of paternity leave...the mother will take the time off…
