That really doesn’t address any of the philosophical points I brought up.

I kinda don’t see a problem with this.

Geraldo Rivera... hmm. Gosh, where have I heard that name?

Wonder if we’ll see any “concerned” articles asking whether Trump’s responsibilities as a grandparent might distract him from his presidential campaign? You know, like that OTHER candidate got some months back?

Oh come on! These monkeys are awesome! I use them in my biogeography class when we talk about generalist vs specialist species. Proboscis monkeys are fab. Their phallic noses send the ladee monkeys all a-flutter and letting my group of 18 year olds ponder that for a minute gets everyone laughing and paying attention…

Great idea. That way all our violent criminals can be shipped off to other countries where they’re given guns and policing power over civilian populations. Who cares what they do as long as it’s not to good white Americans, right?

Trump’s responded: http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/trump…

Exactly. Jesus. Usually my disdain for Americans who expect their swagger and privilege to travel with them around the globe overrides my more noble emotions, but FFS this dude is living in a nightmare, one he’s been sentenced to just because NK wants some US statesman to come suck their dick and sustain their…

When my sister first learned the term “gaslighting” a year or so ago, she began to understand what her husband was doing to her. She’s just begun divorce proceedings. It’s really important to understand and have a name for what’s happening to you. When I was a kid, I used to fantasize that I was being physically…

For real tho you need to talk to her about fish theft in NA. That shit’s not cool.
I mean, I usually avoid the Mommy Wars but sometimes you just have to speak up.

Yes. This times one million.

Gosh, thanks, wise and learned stranger! When I finish writing this silly little PhD dissertation on the spatiality of race and reproduction of white privilege in the U.S., I’ll be sure to try to better myself so I meet your standards.

...Not a sword, dude. This is me, using words. And instead of a substantive response, you choose to try to score points in some silly game only you’re playing. You have fun with that.

Wow, are you actually trying to be condescending and oversimplistic? I don’t follow the writers here - I have no idea how old Kara is. But if she were 15, this would still be a pretty obnoxious thing to say. And chalking up a very real problem of the white fear of blackness that causes enormous ongoing suffering to…

That dog has obviously got a boy dog in there with her. “WTF dad KNOCK!!!"

It’s girlscout cookie season. I got my cookies an hour ago and I’m already through half a box of thin mints.

I know that people are tired of the “naked dress” trend, but I will never be. I LOVE these dresses that just basically place glittering beading against the skin with the illusion of no fabric. Jennifer Williams and Wendy Raquel Robinson. Holy shit. Amazing.

I was going to express skepticism, but I’ve decided I want to believe too much.

This is a masterful snark piece. I especially loved this line: “Who would have thought that the American emphasis on purity would have dovetailed with both “women’s issues” as well as the insular dedication to self-improvement made possible by paranoid late capitalism in quite this exact way?”
