I agree. I actually did something I never do which was Wiki the plot synopsis of the other books to see if they seemed worth the time. The detached tone was supposed to make her seem like a scientist I guess but I felt like if the character isn’t even that interested in what’s happening to her, why should I be? I am…

I just read the book and I didn’t see that line either? Since it was first person when would she have been physically described like that?

And it’s not like it’s just something that just happens in dating. Getting married is still like the “she already consented” in some guys’ minds. If you were to poll married women about whether they’ve been verbally coerced into having sex they didn’t want to have, the number would be close to 100% I imagine. And if…

Get a Toto. The Japanese are on that shit. It will change your life. You can get a less expensive model that doesn’t require damaging your walls, or you can go all out and get one that has a seat warmer and blow dry function. I recently moved to the jungle and my Toto is the only thing about city life that I miss.…

Oh, the true love waits thing was alive and kicking in the 90's, believe me. They tried to get me to take one of those pledges at my church when I was 12. Think about how fucked up that is, I had only just gotten my period for the first time. I responded that I didn’t want to make a promise to God that I thought I…

I watched Unfaithful with my mom and stepdad once. That was...a poor choice.

I came to the comments for the Jamie sex face GIFs and you guys have sorely let me down.

I don’t even care if this is made up, it should win.

Ding ding ding.

Don’t leave!

Oh, we know you’ll do fabulously. But now how will I ever know if NPR tweeting the entire Declaration of Independence was shade? They knew what they were doing. Right?

Sure. Why not.

Agree. If we can freeboob it, then why should the guy be stuck in tighty-whities or whatever? Let the Hamm be free.

Yeah, fair enough. Truthfully my gripe is that I find “Latinx” clunky as fuck and also redundant since “Latin” can serve the same purpose, and since it likely originated within Anglo-dominated academic circles, probably invented or promoted by someone with no appreciation for the Spanish language. (At best, I’m…

Aww Harry. Teen girls don’t have any sense of pit hospitality. (Seriously, I was in my fair share of mosh pits in the 90s, but the closest I ever came to being crushed to death was at a Hanson show.) Also, yeah, upper body strength probably not the greatest either.

This is really pretty terrible. Like the drunk frat boys on speedboats need another excuse to hook sharks off the backs of their boats so they can show off to their asshole friends. Sharks are so crucial to reef ecosystems around Florida.

Latinx is not a word in Spanish. That’s the whole point. It’s a word that seeks to defy the conventions of the Spanish language, because it takes issue with the fact that Spanish is by definition a gendered language. The goddamn tables and chairs are gendered. And now we’re supposed to refer to everyone as Latinx to…

Yes. Yes it would. But that’s not edgy enough for some folk so...

“Origin: Early 21st Century”, in other words, a recently made-up word being passed around by a bunch of academics to congratulate themselves on how woke they are, meanwhile it’s just stomping on the cadence of a language that they don’t appreciate and feel completely entitled to trample over. And it’s unnecessary.…

Latinx isn’t a word. Stop.
