He's got a righteous Twitter feed...his posts are trenchant, witty, and often LOL funny.

We get this program in New Zealand and this is the one program on all of our broadcast TV that is devoted to a non-white/non-Maori family. I think the humour is quite pointed, actually, and the punches often land – the crazy coworker in particular speaks some truths cloaked as nonsense, a tactic I adore. And the four

I see what you are saying. Also I am a bit put off by the headline on this story...like, "Wild" is an adjective that goes with "party," and not so subtly implies "athletes/entertainers can't control themselves at all!" Anyway, nice to resolve something peacefully on the Internet. I hope you are enjoying a tranquil

I don't think anyone is defending Mayweather and I am sorry if my comment or response came across that way to you; I should have written more clearly. No one is saying that Mayweather isn't horrible.

Exactly. EXACTLY. That is such a good point, about the continuing imprint of horrible parents.

That's really good. And thanks for posting this comment...I was reading kittykitcat1955's other ...thoughts...and really beginning to despair having engaged. It's really encouraging to know that something like aversion therapy, and undoubtedly family intervention/information had a positive effect, and outcome, for

...this one lady professor who looked more like a gym teacher than a math instructor...

Ah, the student who approaches admin before the prof, because, let me guess – you didn't go to office hours, nor make an appointment to meet outside office hours, no matter when such a meeting was offered. It's great that some doddering #badmin approved your plan to make a diorama consisting of uncooked macaroni and

I mean...no...these guys aren't Leopold and Loeb. "The other guy made me do it"-Freudian defense is played out. You kill somebody, you're responsible. The other popular defense, "the heat of the moment/bad apples" defense is what's being used to deflect criticism from our killer cop epidemic. There need to be fewer

Would like to star 1000X.

People will do anything, literally anything, to excuse the actions of family annihilators. Money problems? Very alarming. Drug addiction? Crippling. No good, bad influencing acquaintances/associates? Must've been their fault.

No way! You've met resistance from women professors who are immune to your "let me school you lady" charms?! I find that difficult to believe.

The details are troubling enough, as is the possibility that an already disturbing Mayweather potentially contributed to Hayes' unstable mental state and/or the abuse of his wife.

This is the thread I've been waiting for...students, subset Jezebel commenters, just finishing exams share their wisdom about PhDs who have at least – at least – a dozen years of academic experience and probably a lot more. I'm going to make some tea and slip on my jacket with the elbow patches 'cause this is gonna be

We are all so different...Any reference to anything at all to do with Star Wars is the best insurance a member of the male species has for never seeing the inside of any part of my home or body.

I know this is one of those crazy "stickler for details" queries hated by both the (insanely insensitive in this thread btw) commenters and Jezebel staff, but, who is pictured in the photos above? The accused perpetrators?

OK...Moses? The Ten Commandments? (adapted from the real Stele of Hammurabi and supposed foundational tenets of the three major religions?) Has nothing to do with this conversation? Which is about a film about Moses? Um, OK. Rock on!

How exactly is it racist? You cast a white actor in a biopic about W.E.B. DuBois or Sojourner Truth? Then yes, you're a racist, and a moron. The whole parting the Red Sea thing? Wholly unsubstantiated fable. The Abrahamic religions are the cause of most of the trouble in the world today....do people really want to

I'm really not feeling the outrage on this one. Scott cast Yaphet Kotto in Alien in a pivotal non-raced role in Alien; Kotto went on to one of the most delicious character roles of all time in Homicide: Life on the Street. Similarly Djimon Hounsou's breakout role was in Gladiator. Compare this to the offensive casting

No. You will not find a single contemporary history textbook or peer-reviewed academic paper that says that about indigenous peoples. This is not to say offensive depictions of "Noble Savages" do not occur all over the place in pop culture, they do, but that has nothing to do with credible scholarship. Like the poster
