One of the main points of this article was that not very long ago, women WERE obligated to do domestic work because they were women, and they weren’t allowed to do anything else. Have fun with your bread.

I work independently as part of an indie game developer, and this kind of stuff is why I don’t really want to move into anything bigger. We crunch sometimes, but really only when we run out of money (which happens more often than we’d like to admit).

Who would ever give a tow company a good review?

I just checked out their Google listing and they have 61 reviews. 5 or 6 of those reviews are 1 star, and the others are all 5 stars. If you click on the usernames of the 5 star reviews, not a single one of these reviewers has ever created a review for any other business, and they all are included something like…

I've never understood this kind of attitude. Not car related but my brother-in-law and sister were at a 'man-show' type of expo and were cruising around looking at everything. I can't remember the exact circumstances but they were looking at a fifth-wheel camper and were informed by the salesmen that only those in a…

Also, if there's anything someone in the military understands, it's chain of command. People with the rank of Airmen don't set policy, servers don't get to set prices or give discounts. It shouldn't be a foreign concept.

I’m familiar with the controversy, I was just rewatching the clip above. I find myself agreeing with some points that each of these men make to a degree, and it’s a very important conversation that isn’t addressed honestly very often. I do enjoy hearing people disagree in an intelligent way.

Yes! I’m an aesthetician and post lots of skin care reviews. One review was for a Irish Moore Mud Mask which is black- it’s mud. A white person suggested I use other color masks because it could be confused as black face. WHAT THE FUCK PEOPLE. Because I am white I need to stop using colored masks on my skin care blog.…

That and “privilege.” I don’t know when it happened, but at some point spouting buzzwords replaced any exercise of critical thought. Honestly, there are time I have to avoid this site for weeks because reading through the comments makes me despair for the collective intelligence of humanity.

Smarkiness aside, I do think it’s kind of sad that women feel the need to apologise for having an opinion on a feminist website. I don’t play that game. Too bad if you think that makes me a troll.

It’s a necessary preemptive measure on jezebel, if you’re white and you’re going to have an opinion on race issues it had better be as meek and timid as possible, stating clearly that you're aware of your whiteness and privilege and you're not just some white feminist.

I wish people who cry, “Racism!” when clearly there is not like what mangekyo_ is doing here, would get shamed off the internet. The fact that she can humiliate someone for doing nothing wrong and receive no consequences is awful.

So, main point aside, I don’t understand the logic behind, “I’m not a part of group X, so I’m unqualified to make any observations about them.” statement.

I mean, if this was taken to it’s logical conclusion, then we could protect every religious, political and bigoted group there is by simply stating that you don’t…

Blackface never meant “having a black face”, anyway. It means, “performing a gross racial caricature of black people”. Is she doing that? No. Is there any indication whatsoever that this was some kind of racist caricature? No. The manufactured outrage is fucking inane. Furthermore, getting het up about irrelevant shit…

I’m starting to wish no one had taught the internet the word “blackface.” The whole thing is starting to feel like a two-year-old who’s learned to say “No!” and now says it to any question.

Casein free cheese is actually a thing. It's not real cheese, but it's real. Jesus.

When I was in the Marine Corps, it was general wisdom not to go out of your way to make trouble with the 3 C's: cooks, clerks & corpsmen (medics). It should be obvious why you don't want to piss off the person preparing your food, or the person handling the paperwork for your promotion/leave/pay, but I was told a…
