There’s definitely douchebags in the tattoo industry. I’m super close to my artist and a few others so I’ve seen what kind of nonsense they have to put up with and I think that's why I'm more on their side. Plus, the entire tone of this piece rubbed me the wrong way with her posting his photos.

I think chopping off a child’s hair as punishment is implicitly public. So wrong, and so sad.

What difference does it make what she thinks? This isn’t about her, this is about how advertising affects women in general. It’s the Advertising Standards Authority, not the Health and Safety Executive or whatever. Note how the decision talks about how the ad makes her appear, not about what she might look like irl or…

Policing her body isn’t the point of this initiative; she has the form she has and it’s none of our business. I think it would be overstepping, and also incredibly rude, to seek her out and grill her about her weight and health.

should have been banned on the basis of those shoes alone

Yeah, I agree. It’s too bad, because it’s a tradition dating back from the school’s founding in the 1800’s. They will most likely never abolish the tradition so long as the school remains single-sex.

That is...a very good question. It looks to be a ring in the shape of some unidentifiable creature, but tbh, I have no idea.

I just don’t like the ones that champion bullying.

“Scratch a Russian, find a tater.”

Huh. I just had to google him, as I thought he actually *was* South Asian. I was thinking with my childhood brain. (He’s Russian, if anyone was curious).

What gets me is that this is an original screenplay by Cameron Crowe, right? If he wanted to, he could just make the character white! It’s not like there are fans of the original source material who will notice something, so just name her Allison Smith. It’s not like there’s anything in “Hula dancing expert with a…

Oh god, it’s happening.

omg noOOoOOOOoOoOOoOo what is this even she looks like she’s holding back vom nooooo

That’s secretly why she had so many kids. She heard that women sometimes have orgasms while giving birth, and it was her only chance!

Wow, she definitely took her acting cues from porn. I am soooooo grossed out by this!!!!!

My mom had one of these hemorrhage 7 years ago and it very nearly killed her. It was a very long road to recovery, she stuggled to speak for many months, but she is miraculously back to baseline, and recently completed the Camino de Santiago de Compostela in Spain.

It just doesn’t seem particularly clever, though? It sounds like something someone would do for their senior year art project to fuck with the establishment.

As a Christian I usually don’t like the Devil to win but this time

Right!? God that is just so, SO gross.

What the fuck is a trophy daughter?
