“Relatively small bear” is a mama bear with her cubs, and is relatively large enough to seriously fuck up a human.

There’s more black people at Veiled Prophet Ball than work at the AV Club

When I saw this trending on Twitter, I thought, “This is EXACTLY the type of story the current AV Club will write about without doing any work to put it into context.” So, yeah.

You guys have printed a fair amount of extraordinarily weak outrage-seeking shit over the past couple years, but this might take the cake. I rate this clickbait seven “UGH”s out of a possible five.

Oh man, you didn’t check in to see how this insane stretch of a nothing-burger was getting roasted over at The Root? Cause it’s getting no traction there, and it feels like their readership should know.

“At that age [19], teenagers are mature enough to know what they’re being part of.”

The Atlantic reported in 2014 that the Veiled Prophet Organization barred Black and Jewish people from joining.

So she entered a pageant and/or attended some weird debutante event. Is there any indication that she was aware it had a racist history? It may be hard for some on here to believe, but googling the damn thing wasn’t an option in 1999.

Probably because the Israeli Palestinian conflict cannot be summarized as rich Israel bad, poor Palestinian good.

The Palestine-Israel conflict isn’t exactly a one side good other side bad situation.

Churches and ministries have community outreach capabilities that far exceed government or non-profit programs, especially in heavily religious areas. If…

“is how we determine his moral worthiness.”

If it means no more Triple D, hard pass. Every time I go somewhere I’ve never been I look up to see if there’s a Triple D episode on it, watch it, and almost always get a winner.

Same. I was abused multiple times throughout my life, from childhood to adulthood, by multiple people... and I’m not talking about “he made me uncomfortable with his advances” or “he groped me at a party”. I’m talking rape. Full on, violent, unequivocal rape. On that note, this whole “commit yourself to the experience…

She seems insufferable. Seth spoke out against his good friend, which had to be difficult, and she gives him homework?

“Yi also posted a checklist of what she feels is necessary for Rogen to do in this situation, which reads..”

I guess she means to just hire them for the sake of hiring them. Merit, qualifications - all just gibberish in the way of adding token employees for woke-ening purposes.

“doesn’t seem worth the effort made”.
