As a former law school student, I’ve long thought that law school is dumb and unnecessary and that a return to the old apprenticeship system would be better. Law school is a grift.

HOW DID HE NOT GET JAIL TIME?

So they’re like the Confederates here in America.

I find that argument that a 24 year old woman is completely powerless with her baby lady brain in the presence of any man more than three years older than her to be patently absurd. If I were a woman, and a feminist woman in particular, I’d be completely insulted at the infantilization, but that’s not my place to make…

And lets be honest, the horseshit “She was only 24; power dynamics!” defense is only trotted out because she’s a white woman in victim mode. That “They’re so young!” BS is ONLY used with white people, I’ve never seen anyone say a black person is “so young” after they’ve done something questionable or wrong while…

io9 is in the tank for the MCU, there is literally nothing Marvel Studios could put out that would result in a negative review from io9.

Good example of how the progressive movement mirrors the Tea Party so much. Which when you think about it, really isn’t their fault. A lot of these people are too young to remember a time pre-9/11 before our national discourse got all Fox Newsy and America in general shifted right. This type of shit, the purity tests,…

No, I’m advocating for each case to be investigated thoroughly and judged on its own merits. Weinstein, Nassar, and Cosby, had multiple accusations and evidence in support, which were different from Smollett. My entire point is that blanket believing of all victims is dangerous, as shown when you line all four cases…

“Believing the victim” means exactly what you just said: a crime has been reported, we will investigate it fully because we believe a crime has been committed, and we need to get to the bottom of it.”

This has been a textbook case for why skepticism is always healthy and how wrongheaded the “believe victims” mantra of modern progressives is. A lot of people didn’t feel his story added up and/or was way too perfect when it first came out but were afraid to express skepticism for fear of being branded racist and/or…

Along with vaccines, fat acceptance/body positivity is an area where progressives become just as anti-science as conservatives.

The most notorious abusive boss on the Hill is Sheila Jackson Lee and I’ve never heard anyone try to defend her when her reputation comes up. And her abuse has never (to my knowledge) ventured into the physical like throwing shit at people.

This is one of the stories where you find out who believes in feminism and who just wants white women to take the place of white men on the society’s totem pole. I mean, chalking up dismay at a boss throwing things at their staffers to “sexist double standards; if a man can do it, why not a woman?” Huh?

I have seen it work a few years back, this kid had a flight attendant pass his number on a napkin to a girl at the front of the plane when we landed. Everyone was amused, no one was offended.

Martina Clements, 41, a Portland mom who didn’t vaccinate her two children until recently, said the anti-vaccine community uses fear to raise doubts about vaccine safety. But parents who support immunizations can be belittling.

This is on Disney. They have completely botched their Star Wars purchase from top to bottom. Even the most casual gamer knows EA sucks and has for a while. Not only did Disney give them the rights to make a Star Wars game, they gave them the license EXCLUSIVELY. That just shows a complete lack of giving a fuck. They…

Yeah, I don’t get the shit WM get exclusively for the WM/AW dynamic when, obviously, it has to go both ways in order for it to be a thing.

It’s utterly bizarre how much white feminists on the internet have taken Amber Heard’s offhand story to heart over the past week.

These rumors about his personal life, like the article says, have been swirling around him for a while. And, no pun intended, I believe that’s what he’s trying to hide (he dates white women) rather than homosexuality.
