Haven’t we gotten over the fat thing, yet? (Not directed to you, Smarktalk).
There are entire cultures that live mostly on fat. Fat is not the enemy.

This piece incensed me to no end. I am Nigerian-American and the patronizing, offensive tone of this piece made me a little crazy over the weekend. Where does one begin? Even if her entire story is true, giving it the benefit of the doubt, this singular Africa that underlies her entire story no longer exists, and in…

And yet I remember, not so long ago, Jezebel published a similarly idiotic piece about some American woman who travelled to India, had a relationship with an Indian man, learnt so much about life from him and his family’s undesirable behaviour and went back to the U.S. all grown up and wise. It’d be less hypocritical…

In tribute to Ms. Linton, I am also announcing my new memoir, recounting the time I sailed up the Congo River to search for a mysterious ivory trader named Kurtz.

The movie adaptation will win Best Picture in 2018. Going bravely against ethnic type, Emma Stone will play the lead white character.

Oh, I forgot: something something public lynching something trial by association of guilt or whatever QED bitches and lying and such. Lessee: golddiggers shaming male sexuality what was she in a hotel for anyway payday May Day Manic Monday etc et al also Assange or whatever. Fin.

You jest, but point in fact, the loss occurred when they were down three players because of the detentions. I can hear on the horizon the bellowing whinges of a thousand affronted Anglophone dudes who’ve never watched men’s volleyball in their life but are now uberfans bewailing the Politically Correct Police State cum…

That’s an interesting observation but I think the (valid) criticism stems from the idea of ‘finding yourself’ being a luxury that only mostly white, single, upper middle class people can afford. Like, that’s great that you quit your job and went to Italy, boo, but how do the rest of us ‘find ourselves’ when we can’t…

If your goal is to ‘encourage’ Dems who supported Bernie to make sure Trump doesn’t win by getting on board with HRC, then denigrating and insulting them is not a very effective strategy. Make your case and leave it at that, without rudeness. It’s your best shot.

I’m all for doing what you want with your body but I think the explanation given “for hygiene reasons” gives it all away right there, especially when I hear the same from super young girls. Why completely bare equals automatically hygienic is beyond me and I find it deeply troubling. For me it’s in the same category…

That’s nice for you. Not all jobs work that way. Try to imagine that different experiences exist.
