So say we all, forever and ever, amen.

I think the 800-question psyche eval is used to mess with them/provoke their ticks in service of entertaining television than it is in the service of preserving their mental well-being, or making sure they’re mentally strong enough for reality TV in the first place.
Excellent photo for this piece.
They just want a recognizable face, I think, but other faces won’t become recognizable until they start including them as stock photos, so they’re in a bind.

Bumping for Virago. This is a pop up shop is a fantastic idea, but “200 writers and titles” is not a lot. This will celebrate the women who (thankfully) broke into the difficult world of publishing against the odds, but Virago promotes women writers and unjustly out-of-print/neglected writers every single day. Not…
They are desperate to get female readership back up without sacrificing their thoughtful and sympathetic think pieces on Trump Voters and Nazis and men who are frightened of their female coworkers. It’s ironic that they’ll put their own names on those steaming piles of shit but not on this one!
A good example of shutting down a conversation when gun ownership is mentioned. In my ideal world, guns don’t exist, but we don’t live in that world and we’ll never live in that country. Political progress is often stymied by people who demand perfection off the bat.
Anecdotal, but I’m very pro-gun control, pro-federal assault weapons ban, etc., and somehow resistance to even hearing my opinions lessens when I admit I have guns in the house. I feel like this is also bullshit. Like, they’re not even my guns, they’re my partners, but somehow they entitle me to an opinion about the…
I totally think we would—sorry for fighting over-generalizations with over-generalizations!
I meant newspapers now, but of course you’re right. I just hope that when I’m in my 50s-70s, my generation remembers what it feels like and isn’t doing something similar to the youths.
See, as a white woman, when people “attack” white feminism, I don’t chirp up with “NOT ALL WHITE WOMEN” because that is not how me and my friends behave. I take the criticism to heart, hope that I’m doing my part to correct it among the people I know on my periphery, and keep on keeping on. On the other hand, I’m…
I’m sorry you feel attacked, but if your generation is attacked it’s usually in comments sections rather than in articles by major publications, and by people who aren’t yet the majority of shakers-and-movers: politicians, editors, CEOs, etc. You can focus on your hurt feelings, or your can collect your own people who…
I THINK SO.
Oh, I don’t think the current situation is our fault, especially if you look at voting demographics, but I think the next generation will be better than us. And it is this mindset that sets me, a Millennial, apart from the narcissistic Baby Boomers.
I don’t want to knock us at all! I think a lot of us got the wind knocked out of our sails and beat up pretty hard by the baby boomers. So many students had to move back in with their parents after college (I was in college in 2008). We’re a wonderful generation—but we’re a demoralized generation, too. Many of us…
Click Baity and also...she’s not...real?
I hate everything about current events except how the teens are handling it. The post-Millennial generation is probably going to be one of the greatest. Unlike us, they have been raised in and prepared for the financial crisis. And we might have built a culture of social media, but they are its natives—they’ve never…
Honor can be one of those super WASPy names.
