Now THIS is the song of the summer.

The fact that “the nation was figuratively and literally built on the backs of black (and native american) slaves,” which is obviously true, doesn’t equally mean that “much of the government was founded on the very principle of dominating black individuals.”

Esports will never capture a popular audience because humans have always been impressed by witnessing feats of physical, rather than mental, accumen. There’s a reason why chess tournaments haven’t caught on. (And yes, I understand that eports require you to be able to click very precisely, and that does involve a…

in some ways, ’cause we had no choice.

It’s funny/sad that you have to be defensive about simply not finding her funny, lest one of her fans be offended by someone having different taste than them. In our “everyone’s a hater” culture, people really can’t tolerate someone not liking something that they do. It’s like a moral offense. (I am with you in not…

If a comedian, male or female, was making fun of progressive feminists for being feminists (i.e. people who use words like “sexual currency” and “forced economies”), then yes, that would be “punching down.” (It is “punching down” when Rush Limbaugh makes fun of “feminazis.”) Race isn’t the only fucking category of…

Your referent for “that” is unclear; I mentioned multiple things in my post. But hey, thanks for addressing me like I’m an idiot fucking child!

To me, her jokes don’t seem to be structured around making fun of that persona — you don’t walk away thinking “yeah, 19 year old liberal arts majors who talk about sexual currency and forced economies really don’t have the whole world figured out.” Plus, if she were doing that, it would be “punching down,” so we’d…

Adopting a persona of “liberal arts educated, art and women’s studies double major” so that you can perform for liberal arts educated, art and women’s studies double majors is the opposite of “subversive.”

I’m confused by “the bar, which immediately fired the employee in question—but didn’t turn him into the police.” She reported it to the police, right? So isn’t it their job to go apprehend him, rather than his ex-employer’s? I’m not sure what they were supposed to do here. (Obviously the victim blaming/lawsuit…

Conley, 49, was taken into custody after an hours-long standoff at the Houston home

Cool colonial gaze, bro. White people fawning that “the gowns, saris, and lehenga cholis sent down the runway in New Delhi were a hundred times more delightful and interesting on the eyes than anything you’d see in New York or Paris” is basically the exact same thing as a white person actually wearing one of these for…

as someone who jumpscares really easily, that wasn’t remotely scary. yall are just overhyping the shit out of this game

But they’ll won’t be able to spend all their free time surfing

nerdrage is the sweetest rage

oh snap love your biting social commentary

I wonder what percentage of the American public had any clue that this was a remake of something? I’m not young, and like to think I am relatively aware of things that happened before I was born, but I certainly had no idea this was already a thing.

HEY SHES A DETECTIVE

Wow, you’re a real asshole!

I’m not a member of the military, so I don’t understand how their proceedings work. Are you saying that if one solider punched a second solider so hard that he needed to stay in the medical ward for 2 months, the first soldier wouldn’t receive any disciplinary action from his commanding officer?
