Just saying “That’s how guys talk” does not mean that it isn’t hurtful, cruel and shitty. It also does not make it an absolute truth in all times and in all spaces.

The insult as batter is really crappy way for friends to interact. It almost always creates a toxic dynamic in which members of the group get hurt but

The reaction from Julie and Sarah fills me with sorrow. They hardly react because they see it every day.

Every day.

Enduring that abuse all day, every day solely for having an opinion. The men are breaking down from reading a half dozen of these tweets once through. DiCaro and Spain see this every day.

Every day.

“Target’s policy is exactly how sexual predators get access to their victims.”

I wish it was bad electricity jokes...

Football is just not conductive to being a place where people go to relax. A baseball game is intended to be an afternoon of enjoyment so the park ideally has plenty of space to people move around and relax. A football game doesn’t have the pace for people to just hang out. I doesn’t make for good background.

Well it’s better than nothing. That he said “what I did was wrong, no matter the circumstances.” is an improvement on the standard non-apology apology.

Hardest part is actually showing he’s learned anything.

Two of the biggest stories in the NBA going down on the same night with a side of fresh-out-of-the-box baseball.

Screw football.

Just one more proof of the psychotic competitive nature of Michael Jordan. You have to crazy as well as crazy good to push it every time down the floor for 82 games.

The “women cannot be trusted” trope brought to absurd levels. Here’s the logical progression:

Woman accuses man of grabbing her.

Assumption 1: Women are untrustworthy and false.

Conclusion 1: Woman must have grabbed man.

Video shows man grabbing woman.

Assumption 2: Assumption 1 is an unassailable fact.

Conclusion 2: Video

“films and graphic novels that delve into human emotion, development, and realistic portrayals”

Those are exactly the elements missing from MoS and BvS. Its something I’ve seen consistently pointed out in the reviews. There’s really no development happening and Snyder has apparently feels that scowling and

Hilary come November....

If there are elements of the GOP who despise a Trump candidacy go ahead a run on a third party ticket. Sure it will assure a Clinton presidency but at some point they have to decide whether their stated ideals are really worth suffering for. They’ve been willing to go far indeed for other stated ideals, they’ve shut

Gillian Anderson is goddamned national treasure:

“Don’t be a victim” is just code for “Your issues do not matter to me.”

I’ll just say it. Maybe we shouldn’t have left the empire....

Just for that I’m having Udon for lunch.

The team did most of this in house with player feedback....

Its more of a “be careful what you wish for...” moment.

Its important to remember that the thrust of this essay (and most essays about inequality really) isn’t that “You are bad for getting benefits from family/circumstance” its “Those benefits ought to be for everybody else as well.”

There’s nothing wrong with financial support but there is something wrong with the notion

Exactly. No one should feel bad about being helped. Its important and benefiting in multiple ways. Which is why there has to be some help available to everyone regardless of their parents position.
