I keep thinking this. Then I become baffled as to why I am incredulous about a dumb thing becoming a Big Story when that’s a huge portion of what the internet has always been. Although, snake-oil-vitamin betrayal drama is especially asinine.

You know this is a real and important issue because it came out in a tiff over competing vitamin sponsorships.

I’m at a loss why we are supposed to be celebrating this young gay kid’s “downfall.” I just...don’t get it. Seems like he was a shitty friend to a grown a%$ woman and that sucks—-bad friends are bad. But other than that why, oh why are we vilifying him? He’s spoiled and “extra,” sure, but so aren’t roughly 60% of the…

It might help to know that Jojo and her family of seven live in a small trailer in an alleyway behind the mansion. The house is owned by her production company, and is forbidden to Jojo when the cameras are not rolling, and to the rest of the Siwa family at all times.

Sometimes, when Jojo cradles the coughing form of…

I know she opened them because for professional emails, I use a tracking service, which shows how often they were opened; the service showed that Duca viewed every email multiple times from her iPhone, her Gmail account, and another mail client.

The exact same thing with the razor masculinity fiasco. No company gives a shit about anything but the bottom line. Unfortunately, too many people are too stupid/naive to realize it, and think that the companies are trying to make a social statement.

We (insert company name) are just here to help-

Cue “self-care.” Like, when did staying up 2 hours later than planned to binge-watch TV, utilize unnecessary beauty products, and consume more than a healthy amount of light red wine become in our best interest?

I want to bang my head on my desk when I see women praising the Dove ads. THEY WANT YOU TO BUY UNDERARM BEAUTIFYING DEODORANT. THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR SELF ESTEEM.

This says it all:

The revolution will not be televised.

This is body positivity’s end game, and it will continue to shape shift into meaningless consumerism.

The “joy” (read: horror) of capitalism is that literally anything, no matter how noble, positive, or even anti-capitalist, will eventually be co-opted and sold.

It’s beyond pointless, without that contrast this article is basically incomplete. The issue is that white, hetero, cis-male teens have legitimately never faced the kind of struggle that the current generation does, because historically everyone else has instead. The structures historically meant to signal boost those…

A lot of people don't vote for the politicians who would be best for the life they have, they vote for the politicians who'd benefit the life they WANT to have. Poor people vote for republicans because they believe that some day, they will be rich, and then that tax cut for yacht owners will come in handy

“It happened once when my mom was in high school. A girl purposely broke her own arm just to get another person in trouble.”

“Ryan is convinced that if it had been a fight between two girls, things would’ve been different. He has this idea that since I’m a woman, if I were in the same situation, I could do whatever I wanted. I could pull out a knife and stab a guy, and I wouldn’t get in trouble.”

I like your people

My people don’t really do baby showers. Not a whole lot of money for it. If someone’s going to have a baby, friends and family will meet up for tea/coffee and to hand off trash bags full of clothing their kid has grown out of, and other hand-me-down baby stuff, etc. My SIL owns an ever loaned-out collection of knit…
