I like this essay, and I like her general attitude. But speaking as a queer person, I’m really not pleased with the reception that #fingersinthebootyassbitch has gotten. It’s homophobic. Yes, Kanye’s tweets were worse, and horribly sexist. But she’s 100% trying to humiliate him by making him seem ‘gay’ or ‘effeminate’…

I love 70s fashion and hair, and I would be all about this decor in a bar, but for my home...nah, I think I just realised that this aesthetic is not for me. Clean Scandi minimalism for this chick!

See, I fear that mandating businesses to pay maternity leave could just create more incentive not to hire young women- the ideal solution is for the government to pay the leave (and raise taxes and also universal healthcare and...I’ll keep dreaming...)

This is my completely scientifically unfounded thought, please correct me, people who know more: could it be that since the pipes are already corroded/corroding, they’ll now continue to leach lead, even into non-corrosive water?

I get a sort of election season anxiety every 4 years, when the basest and lowest parts of America’s id come crawling out. But this time, I’m really, properly scared. I’m a young woman, about to start my career, and the rhetoric surrounding abortion, immigrants, guns, welfare, foreign policy is probably the main…

The order of this made my head hurt. A best-to-worst or worst-to-best list would’ve been a bit easier to parse!

Misplaced anger, bro...I wasn’t being sarcastic. I do think this information is super-relevant and I worry for this child.

How was that not brought up in the write-up? That seems SUPER-relevant. :-/

I don’t know, for me the physical presence of the animal makes a huge difference. I’ve never gotten allergic from friends coming over have pets, but just having an animal within a few feet is enough to start itching, sneezing, hives. It’s not life-threatening, but on an 8-hour flight it would be utterly shit and leave…

Ow my uterus just winced at the idea of...yeah. Covered with skin and flesh, please.

Right, thank you. She sounds like a garbage human.

Not a weed smoker, so I have no clue what this offensively named weed is. Can someone more hip clue me in?

I like to think it shows we’re creative...right? Either that or we’re just pretty fucking weird. And proud of it.

My boyfriend have an entire collection of stuffed animals who each have distinct names, voices, personalities, and backgrounds.

Cat’s Cradle, or literally anything by Kurt Vonnegut. Hilarious, profound, and life-changing.

Super duper allergic here, for me it would be an annoyance to have a cat or dog nearby. For some of my friends with asthma, it could make them stop breathing. I don’t understand how at the very least there isn’t a regulation requiring airlines to ask people whether they have allergies and making sure to seat them far…

That has literally nothing to do with what my reply stated. I agree that every opportunity to meet someone is great- I was commenting on the myopic views that some commenters had about Tinder and how crazy they thought it was to search for a long-term partner on the app.

I’m in my early twenties, and most people I know use Tinder for relationships. If you just want to get laid, you go to a bar or club. If you want to narrow it down to someone you have something in common with, you use Tinder. OkCupid is full of creeps and Match.com skews too old, so what other options are there? (This…

I’ve got a short torso, boyfriend has a long torso. Haven’t 69ed in at least 2 years, having tried it a few times when we first started dating. It also just doesn’t work gravity-wise; blowjobs demand a lot of movement, but I don’t like being on top when receiving oral sex. Way too much fuss.

I think it’s okay to say ‘stupid evil face’ because it’s not criticising her for not fitting some standard of beauty. I think she has a stupid evil face because it accurately portrays how stupid and evil she actually is, which makes it fair game as an insult.
