In the UK, Wiley is just a really well-known rapper/grime artist.

Never seen that Kanye video before, oh my god it’s fantastic.

In America, I was hug-averse. Here in the UK, hugging is SO NOT A THING that I think I come off touchy-feely, just for occasionally hugging my closest friends when saying hello or goodbye! It’s great.

This guy is a hypocrite with awful judgment, but line about how it would break his wife’s heart is really tragic. How awful for her, regardless of their politics.

At first I was puzzled as to why there was no mention of Amy Pond, but then I was all

Bit confused- why is this on Deadspin? I usually expect political posts shared to Jez to come from the Slot. Is this a post-Gawker’s-demise shakeup?

Sorry, how did you manage to break into my home and read my diary circa age 16? (I actually did move to the UK so I guess I put my money where my overly verbose mouth was?)

Reading this made me feel so old, bitter, and grumpy....and I’m 22.

I was raised a spoiled child who got fresh-squeezed all the time, so I have literally never been able to stomach concentrate. Why! Why does it exist and taste so little like oranges?

French secularism is really...kind of strange. Obviously the Burkini ban is very much due to Islamophobia and bizarre bigotry, but a friend who lived there for a time said he wasn’t allowed to display his small crucifix at university, and had to keep it hidden. At first I thought it was refreshing change from how…

Wait, where do we sign up for this? I want a mass ungreying!

There’s no nicer feeling than scrolling down to a comment that takes the words out of your mouth. Why does her blaccent get a pass?

I saw a really interesting exchange pertaining exactly to this on the comments section of the NYT article this morning. A black man commented to say that this was all a smear campaign, conspiracy, etc. A black woman replied, mentioning that it’s important to believe rape victims...to which the man immediately…

I’m going to be that prick, but I lived in Rome for a year and their gelato....yeah. My go-to was an incredible local place which would drizzle hot melted dark chocolate into the bottom of your cone, with some tart forest berry gelato and a scoop of chocolate-hazelnut gelato on top.

This is reminding me of a line from the film Submarine- “He was an uneasy screen presence.” The writing was always there, Larry seems very smart and jovial, but he just never radiated the kind of ‘it’ factor that, say, Jessica Williams or Sam Bee have.

Live in Britain, can confirm. They swear at work, at church, at school, on the tube, in the pub, in front of their parents, in front of their grandparents. It’s just normal.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think your comment came across differently than you intended- were you making a off-topic observation that only women with small, perky breasts are considered ‘acceptable’ to go braless?

Really? I feel like it’s more than possible to enjoy vapid trash entertainment and also be politically active and engaged! And I doubt many Trump supporters are particularly into a family with a transgender parent and several black members...

I’m so, so grateful to have great public transit where I live. I can stumble onto the train tired, drunk, hungover, feverish, in absolutely any state, and it will take me where I need to go. I barely need to be conscious, I can be useful (get ahead on work or emails) or lazy (read, scroll through Instagram), and even…

That would be great! Wow, this is one of the first times I’ve stayed up late enough to join SNS and I’m already making friends :-D
