Please. The “criticism” of Beyoncé’s appropriation and plagiarising is incredibly mild (and I’m being generous) compared to that of other artists. I dare you to find one jezebel article about it that is as critical of Beyoncé as it has been of Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, or any other female pop star accused of…

I’m starting to think the only hope left for the United States is for the blue States to secede and form their own country, and let the South and other backwards/redneck States form the Confederate States of Y’all Qaedistan. Sure, it would suck for the liberals in those States since they’d have to pack up and move to…

And black leotards. 

As the Post explains, Semenya, 28, “is believed to have an intersex condition that causes her body to produce higher levels of testosterone than other women. The IAAF has maintained this gives her an unfair advantage over other women competitors.”

I’m pretty good at ignoring ads. They barely even register and I just scroll past them. Also, I don’t follow any influencers and I have no interest in the ‘recommended videos’ section either. So all these changes haven’t really impacted my Instagram experience since I mostly follow friends/people I know, artists and…

Hitting them in the wallet is the ONLY thing that maybe makes Republicans think twice. We know they’re impervious to facts, data, logic, history and any other reasonable argument. 

I think they need to get the hell out of there to make a point, and for the Republicans in Georgia to feel the economic fallout of their political decisions. But I agree these companies should remain engaged in the political debate by donating to pro-choice candidates and organizations. But they need to pull out and…

This. Free speech means putting up with odious shit you don’t want to hear, too. I’d rather live in a world where a douche like Crowder is allowed to keep his dumb show on YouTube than one where angry mobs get to decide what is or isn’t acceptable content. Today they might be removing a far right nutjob but tomorrow…

But also, she’s not the only pop star ripping off contemporary artists. And, this is common imagery. There are far worse offenders: There’s Madonna of course. And Beyoncé is notorious for it, but this site would never acknowledge it. There’s a sequence in the Hold Up video that is basically a shot for shot copy of…

What part of full kitchen is so hard to understand? Never saw a B&B with full private kitchens, at least not at an affordable price. 

Chile, on average, is only 100 miles wide. It is a long and narrow country. The reason for pools like this is that the ocean in chile is so cold, you can’t really swim in it even when it’s super hot outside. On the plus side, the cold cold water is also why they have such amazing fish and seafood.

Yes but as a user you accept that you’re not getting a lot of the services a hotel provides. If I want a hotel, I’ll stay in a hotel. But if I just want to use someone’s apartment while I’m in a city, I go for Airbnb. They are not the same thing. With an Airbnb, I know I’m not getting my bed made or the room cleaned…

No. You have the option of renting a place all to yourself, which is what I always do. I would never rent a room in someone’s house while they’re there but I much prefer having an apartment for the same price as a mediocre hotel room.

Not the same. I like to cook and go to local markets when on vacation so a basic kitchenette won’t do. I also prefer to stay in residential neighbourhoods as opposed to touristy spots where all the hotels are. Plus, I hate generic vacation rental homes/apartments. I do avoid places on Airbnb that are obvious…

I’m sure they just forgot and will be back to business as usual in no time.

But what if I don’t want to stay in hotels when I’m on vacation? I don’t particularly like them and I also don’t want to eat out every day. I like having the option to cook and part of the appeal of travel for me is going to markets and using local ingredients to cook. I also like having a whole place to myself that…

I know lots of people who rent their homes out on Airbnb and they keep the majority of the money. Some friends bought a row house and rent out the basement/garden unit and live on the top two floors and on good months that unit pays for most of their mortgage. I also love staying at Airbnbs because I don’t really…

I think the term might put people off too, people who might see it as unnecessarily combative even if they don’t have a problem with the concept. Sometimes I think feminism intentionally makes it difficult for people to come on board with the cause, first by assuming everyone is all literate in academic terms and…

Maybe she doesn’t know, like my boss. But what if she is more socially conservative than we perhaps would like her to be?

This. I was at a panel discussion with one of my bosses about terrorism, mass shootings and gender and one of the panelist’s brought up toxic masculinity and discussing it after with my boss, who’s a guy in his 50s, liberal and well educated, and he had totally misunderstood the meaning until I explained to him what…
