She over-played her hand and underestimated her opponent. This was always going to end this way for her. Always.

In a two party system it can be difficult choosing between pragmatism, and voting your conscience.

Is it too much to ask for that mosquito to give him Zika?

She actually specifically stated a few seasons ago that her parent’s divorce and the effect it had on her is the reason she never married Scott. I am sure she has seen or heard it all being the eldest. She knew her mother had an affair, and to know that about your mother and to know that was the reason your parent’s…

As one of the signatories, I am so glad to see that Jezebel is covering this.

I took a class with Professor Pogge at Columbia in the late 80's. I was a Barnard student, and he "joked" that all the Barnard students would drop his class within two weeks, the idea being that we were dumber than Columbia students. His teaching sucked. I got my first migraine in that class from stress. Luckily my…

Yeah, I admittedly don’t know as much about Turkish history as I should, and my perspective is ethnocentric. I was under the impression that whenever things got too autocratic, the military coups acted as a bit of a ‘reset button’. Obviously a gross oversimplification. I’m sure Turkey’s fierce secularism has caused…

Well, the big holy book specifically says “Thou shall not kill” and people immediately began applying caveats to that. Then later it says, “hey dudes, the greatest commandment is love.” And then people immediately ignored that. So, if "true believers" are going to ignore the pretty specific and unambiguous words of…

Palestinians, of course, need no PRIDE. Funny how these things function in layers. Other bigotries cannot be forgotten. Ever.

As usual we won’t mind the bans and will be there anyway, as Turkish people we’re pretty immune to tear gas at this point..

Being able to have Pride is so important. Being able to be in a place with other people like is important.

Honestly from the get-go it’s felt like Taylor was lying. Yes Kanye is crazy and yes the line is pathetic, but why would he lie about something so easy to disprove? Especially when he’s painted as this scary black monster and she’s literally the archetypal white damsel in distress; whatever ever you say about Kanye he…

This is hard for me because I love both of these people. I believe most of what Kim says, but I think the rub is that Kanye didnt specifically say he was going to call Taylor a bitch. So I think Taylor is getting back at him for both that and the “Imma let you finish” thing. They have now both created these differing…

Yes somebody speaking sense over here. She totally approved it and then acted like she was shocked, a poor little innocent white girl attacked by the big bad black man all over again. I can definitely understand how that upsets Kanye and Kim because I think she's deliberately playing into that trope and it's subtle…

I think, as Caity said in the piece, there’s room for everybody to be more or less telling the truth. Taylor might have approved (or at least been polite about) the general concept of the lyric without knowing Kanye was going to use the specific wording “that bitch,” either because Kanye hadn’t written the exact words…

Please accept this nice gif I found as a pledge of my continued support!

My favorite description of him is when Erin called him "a tribal arm band tattoo that willed itself into becoming a full-fledged human man." But yours is easily #2.
