The cover was fine. But Styles’ album is fucking awesome. I can’t name a single One Direction song, and would have written him off as another boy bander flash-in-pan kinda dude, but then I heard him on NPR on my way to work and was intrigued. Then I spent a day watching his entire Youtube channel. Then I bought his

I fucking love this show, and the fact that it hasn’t yet been picked up for another season is currently the only thing I can be outraged about without actually losing it. (Outrage fatigue is real, y’all.)

Last year the student body president of my middle school revealed to me in a private conversation that his parents are DREAMers. When Trump was elected, his anxiety was palpable. He’s one of the most optimistic kids I’ve ever taught, and he was universally adored in our school, so even though he was worried, he never

You are the most patient and charitable person I know on the internet.

You know what my bigger problem is with these kinds of posts on Jez? It’s that the writers don’t seem to give a shit. Like, no one in charge calls this shit out. Back when Lindy was a writer there, she would dive into those comments and challenge people. (She writes a column now at The Times, which is pretty good, but

I don’t know why it’s so hard to conceive that if you’re actually one of the “good ones” then you know this isn’t ABOUT YOU. If you’re truly working on breaking down systemic oppression, then keep doing you. If you’re mad someone thinks you’re holding up racist systems, your hurt feelings (which, again, are not ABOUT

Someone (hint hint) needs to get this chick a column! She is an excellent writer and thinker. L’Oreal is fucking dumb. White people, particularly fragile white women, who are upset at what she said are fucking ignorant fucks.

So when Munroe starts her own makeup line, I’ll be her first customer.

Off-topic...love the new look!

How...how does someone not know that? Not only is that joke like the foundation of comedy about race, but it’s also a meme that I see almost every day.

Agreed. The autotune literally hurt my ears. I will say it again, why did ANYONE let this happen?

I made it 59 seconds. I mean. Come the fuck on.

Why did ANYONE let this happen?

One of my good friends was harassed by a professor, and she was able to sue him and get him fired through Title IX. She is devastated by this news. That relationship ruined her life for a long time. Now she helps other women at the university level to get Title IX help in these kinds of situations.

My city did it first. /petty

Well, they’re probably actual Nazis. A ton of Nazis (like actual Nazi soldiers, commanders, etc.) went to Brazil and Argentina after WWII so they wouldn’t get caught. Adolf Eichmann, who was one of the main architects of the Holocaust, was probably one of the most notorious. Josef Mengele also fled to Argentina.

I

Uh, well, actually my friend’s cousin is his barber. He’s actually the entire team’s barber now. It’s the closest I’ve ever come to someone actually famous (and this is what? three times removed?), so I felt compelled to say something lol.

So this caused me to be nostalgic enough to see if I still have our email exchanges, and I DO! There were some things I’d totally forgotten about, like how she resurrected herself as MizX and DarlingBecky. MizJenkins and MizX were both banned, but DarlingBecky was allowed to remain. Mmmhmm.

MIZJENKINS! After we both were banned from Jezebel we started emailing each other. Went on for a long time. I haven’t thought of her in a few years. Thanks for the throwback!

Thank you for these gifts.

This is semi off-topic, but I was real pissed when the camera showed every single nominee except Taboo and the other Native musicians from the NODAPL song. Anyway, if you haven’t heard of Supaman yet, check him out.

You would be correct. The FBI was investigating this very issue over a decade ago. The Intercept did a long piece on it in January.
