No, this was fascinating to read. :) Thanks for taking the time to reply with so much information! I would go insane with all the gender-based restrictions clearly based on the idea that men are the kings and women their lowly, weak, inherently less valuable servants. How do you deal with that level of patriarchal…

I like you...especially for posting that gif. ;)

I was thinking Uzbekistan or a Pakistan, but leaning towards Uzbekistan. Ans maybbeeeee some parts of India, but this was way more shaky a guess.

Yes, he was.

What is this gif from?!

The people that defend this type of behavior are always people who engage in it themselves.

What culture/country is this? I have some guesses, but am so curious!

Katy Perry is the undeniable queen of glitzy glammy things that miss the mark. Whether it's sporting a ridiculous grill in an Ancient Egypt-themed music video or giving a performance in a smorgasbord of pan-Asian imagery (a visual P.F. Chang's), or having her backup dancers wear bodysuits that resemble a caricature…

Bless your heart, you little philistine.

I was very serious. People that claim the importance of art are likely those that put on fake affectations about how the art should be perceived then call other's authenticity into question when they don't receive the art in the same way. I can think of art pieces that are universally hailed as masterpieces but…

This is where we start to get into aesthetic theory, which I'm not going to go into on the comment section of a Gawker article for obvious reasons. Because it is painful and endless.

Art is absolutely important and rare, but most "art" barely deserves the name. All good art is important and good art is rare, but most art is neither.

I am vegetarian, but I want to add that I fully support eating pasture-raised, organically-fed animals. On ethical farms, that type of thing does not happen.

Yep, exactly. Those traditional farms would need to be inspected, and maybe, finally, maybe, there could be hard standards for the word "organic."

Whatever your opinions on GMO's, they definitely bring food prices down, if nothing else.

But he reversed his position. You have no idea why he voted the way he did and it's bizarre and extreme to call him a piece of shit given his past liberal history. He may have had all sorts of reservations that he later rethought. The point is, I don't know, but I have his history as a staunch liberal, and that's the…

I'll have to check that, but in general Justice Breyer tends to vote liberally.

Don't forget to give it up for Justice Breyer! He voted with the female SCOTUS justices, and those familiar with SCOTUS knew he would. He is freaking awesome.
