My mother’s story on how she had to go to court to reclaim her maiden name changed made me realize the secret side to my male privilege.

My only question: if you choose the Shooting Star Memorial option, is there a guarantee that the cube would fully disintegrate? I’d hate to ruin some poor man’s day with my dead ass meteoring into their living room during the 5 o’clock news.

Same 10x over. Came in to the article being all “lol fuck this”, left a sobbing mess after that soldier’s quote. It hit all the sadspots.

I agree wholeheartedly. The US presents Saudi Arabia as this nation full of oil and prosperity and leaves out just how horrible it is for anyone who isn’t a male Muslim zealot. You can quickly start playing Oppression Olympics when it comes to the Middle East, but in my limited knowledge the Eurocentric view of Saudi…

I want to root for KStew. I think she’s a good actress. Nay, great. She’s the first American woman to win fucking César, and the French aren’t known for their love of foreigners. I think she gets horribly typecast. I love her adamant ambiguity regarding her sexual orientation when faced with questions. Her toxic…

I always wonder why people in my state allowed George Wallace to be governor well into the late-1980s, but then I remember that the Deep South is a land of mystery and entertainment.

She is her own character, which is. . . problematic.

I’m afraid that in their convoluted sense of Christianity, the woman cannot decide anything about anything unless running it by her husband or other oppressive male figure (father, church leader). So I’m glad her brother isn’t supporting her, but ultimately for her to leave that sorry ass of a man, her father will…

I doubt most adherents to the Bible realize that it has gone through so many different hands and translations and maybe, just maybe, some people (ahem, King James) added to the writings. I’m just glad we can amend the Constitution.

It’s the same with any civil rights movement. The oppressors are terrified of losing the privilege they don’t even know they have, and will use any means neccessary to keep it.

I’ve found that bringing up this point is usually met with the general statement of “Can’t they/you just get over it?” in reference to ongoing systematic discrimination of LGBT+ Americans. As if marriage equality is a fucking gift that the government gave us.

When he stated that we should refer to people by “what they do” I was like, you beautiful beast. You really have no idea on the origins of surnames.

Hi-fashun, to me, is always a string of “What the fuck?”

This was my question too. I just assumed she gets a certain amount of money from the parental unit(s) and the price of a monthly train pass is cheaper than the rent. Still, saving money on rent is one helluva roundabout way to justify. . . this. I’m sure there are other, more hipster ways to save on rent.

Just agreeing with the statement that Drake is a bit out of his league. Maybe they become lovers for life, maybe she appears on his next album as another girl that “hurt” him. I would not like that to happen to Serena.

I really wish most Christians (blanket term) had this mindset, but they rely too heavily on others’ interpretations of what constitutes a “follower of Christ”. To any so-called Christian who has read the Bible in a theological setting rather than going into it with a fundamentalist mindset and preconceived notions,…

All I have to do is “pick a love”? Well, phone up Tom Hardy because by that line of logic we are betrothed.

Well, Serena has been at the top of her game since 2002. Drake was not Drake in 2002.

Whilst rare, I have on one occasion seen a standard truck with truck nuts. Sometimes at night, when they go up a hill, you can see the nuts meet the pavement and sparks fly. It is truly a magnificent occurence of nature.

This is a disheartening smear campaign.
