You work with words everyday and yet have not heard of misandry? I first came across that in high school in 1997. Also, intersectionality? Part of queer and feminist theory for quite some time, since at least the 1980s. Don’t go around claiming “you know words” when clearly, you don’t.

It’s interesting to me that part of the reason the Brexit deal is falling apart is because the English just cannot let go of Northern Ireland. I mean, come on y’all, have you not fucked over the Irish enough? Will you ever fucking just let them go? 900 years of oppression and slavery and you still insist on holding on?

Given that it has been, was, and is American policies and actions in Central American countries that has lead to the current migration crisis, then yes it is our responsibility. Also, seeking asylum in the way these migrants are doing is legal under U.S. and international law. And what are these parents supposed to…

So much this! If it really was about truth and reason then you would be progressive because facts and history are against the conservative narrative. Plus, science shows that conservatives are more dominated by their fear/emotional centers, which is why Fox News’ tactic of playing on the fears of old people is so…

So we’re just going to forget about and/or shit on cuisine from the Middle East, Afghanistan, the Levant and Persian dishes in general? Raisins are also used in many savory preparations in Latin America as well, such as chiles en Nogada from Mexico and pasticho from Venezuela. Perhaps before making ignorant statements…

Raisins are used in a lot of savory preparations in Middle Eastern, Perisan, and Afghan food. But yeah, let's just keep being ignorant Americans here.

Apologies accepted, and sorry for calling you an ass. : ) Perhaps they are being more careful now in later seasons, I’m still going to have to give it a bit of side-eye though.

I have seen enough of the show, thank you. And I am also a professional archaeologist, you ass. This is what an actual archaeological dig looks like:

Any excavation of archaeological remains outside of the rigorous standards of the discipline can be considered looting, even when the person owns the land. These people do not dig in carefully controlled layers within designated, geo-located grids following established methods. Because of this, any important…

Not at all! I am also tired of her videos consisting of a whole bunch of anonymous women twerking their backsides and being used as props. It was old even when she did it in the Anaconda video (even down to being in water/liquid so she can shake her ass in it), and it’s beyond stale now. It’s like, okay gurl, we get…

Nope. Conservative viewpoints are perennial losers because y’all fight against the progress of a changing world. You will forever be on the losing side of history. Loser.

Yes! I am admittedly amused that her “expertise” is oh I went there once for a movie. If that was all it took then I wouldn’t have needed to spend all that money and time getting a PhD <eye-roll>

Technically what they are doing on The Curse of Oak Island is looting. It’s a terrible thing to promote, and every time they do it we lose valuable information about the past. Shows like that should be shut down.

Frottage is the act of thigh-fucking, wherein the man places his penis between his partner’s thighs and thrusts to orgasm. Sometimes practiced by gay men, was actually a common form of sex between prostitutes and their clients in the 19th century and earlier because you could avoid disease and pregnancy.

As an archaeologist I am absolutely horrified by both this show and the comments she has made about it. It’s just another version of the awful “Ancient Aliens” bullshit honestly, as she has said that her specific purpose is to expose the “truth” that us archaeologists are supposedly trying to “hide”. Over the summer…

Based on the statements she has made about this show - hunting for the “truth” that archaeologists are trying to hide - and as an actual archaeologist, I am so not here for this. Neither are any of my colleagues in the discussions we have had about this. This is just an extension of the Ancient Aliens bullshit.

His statement is so many levels of dumb I can’t even.

Ugh, I am so tired of how much effect the “Lost Cause” whitewashing of history has on our understanding of events in this country. Like, Southerners didn’t defend their homeland....y’all attacked first! Also, we would have won the Revolutionary War so much faster if it weren’t for white racism and the reluctance to…

The Bible actually does say something about abortion, and they’re all for it. If you suspected your wife of infidelity and she was pregnant, you gave her a potion or preparation to drink. If the baby was yours, it stayed in the womb; if the baby dies, it was someone else’s and its proof of her infidelity. So…
