I agree re: the guillotine. IIRC it was invented to both be more humane and allow for more executions, plus it reduces executioner’s guilt? I read some accounts of Mary, Queen of Scot’s execution (google at your own risk) and would have totally spewed if I had to witness that.

I think you’re reading a bit too much into my comment. I’m saying Kara is in the right to question this woman’s appropriative tactics. She didn’t say she is the final arbiter on all things African or even Woman of Color. I’m not saying a white person can’t discuss culture. I am saying we shouldn’t take a practice of a…

Lambert’s terrified me as a youth. We went a few times en route to the beach, and the olds would just get so tickled at my suffering. I went back a few years ago and it was amazing.

I used to be a better-than-average tipper before I lived with my roommate, who worked at our local college bar. I go to a hoity toity school of entitlement in the name and she told me it’s hit or miss regarding tips when the customer is using daddy’s credit card. Most of the time they stiffed her. On a relatively slow…

I thought about that, too. I’m just waiting for that one Fox blonde to just go off on air one day re: misogyny. Survey says you can only take so much before shit hits the fan.

This.

Jumping way up the ladder, but your last statement really resonated with me. I have the privilege of having a surname associated with one of the Elizabethan age’s most famous men, and I’m easily able to trace my lineage patrilineally to where my surname originated circa the Norman Invasion. Matrilineally doesn’t pan…

As a February baby, this post is hurtful. Not all amethysts are iggy.

Every time I see a photo of Ariel Pink, I want to ask a bro if he knows what bathing is. Sure, the unkempt alt-bro a la Mac Demarco thing can be your #personalbrand but I just can only describe Mr. Pink as “greasy”. Plus any artist that pitchfork fanboys hard over makes me question things.

“Five Seconds” is one helluva jim jammy. I just found everything else so blah. Honestly I’m pretty musically illiterate as I didn’t really explore anything outside of the radio until 2012ish (college, ugh). I submitted my soul to the shrine of Grimes around that time, and most of my likes/dislikes are based on her…

Crotchety, maybe. Crotch, unequivocally.

YOU CANNOT DENY THE EVIDENCE! DO NOT BELIEVE THE “liberal” MEDIA! “they” TELL YOU THAT THIS IS 2% “milk” WHEN I AM TELLING YOU IT IS ALL LIES, IT IS 1%!!1!!!!!!1!

Well, I don’t think a man would feel threatened by a sign made by women unless it was made by eviscerated organs. Plus it isn’t like you have to go up to the sign and touch it, but I could definitely see dudebrofrats being all, “Dude touch it, don’t be a [gendered slur].”

He didn’t set the bar too high with the prior one imo. His remix of Sky Ferreira’s “Everything is Embarrassing” was pretty fetch tho.

There’s reports of war crimes by Captain Crunch against the Roofs of Mouths. Sure, things will soften over time but we need to act now to reprimand him.

Did someone just inadvertently compare rape and homosexuality? I thought I’d seen it all.

You’re my hero of the day. Honestly.

You’re obfuscating race and ethnicity a bit throughout this spiel. The point Kara was making is that a black woman would have a more inward take on this than the white author. White people love to be critical of other races while we virtually never look towards our own racial identity and what it means to be white. In…

Invoking the Socratic method! I must say, my mind is indubitably quickened by your reinforcement of the status quo. Why, am I human? Is there more out there? You have extended my grasp of the human knowledge.

The first thing I noticed was his self-induced titty twister. Like, bro.
