Please do. Bonus points for explaining exactly when sexual agency comes into being. 18? Why not 17? 16? Why not 15?

I yeeted my virginity when I was 11. So, okay, tell me more about when humans understand sexuality. What’s the acceptable cutoff line? Does agency suddenly spark into being at some predetermined point?

Also, just as an aside, Unnamed Male Bear 747 may have led you to the plane, but it gave me endless joy because, every time, it reminded me of this:

Fat Bear Week, or, as I prefer to think of it, the 2020 election.

Justin Long has been killing it as a “nice guy” sleazeball for a long time. (Hence the schadenfreude of Tusk, if you can take that movie.) I think it only works because he actually seems like a good dude in real life.

One word: carpet.

Cool, tell me more.

Just as a pertinent aside: I’m a online writing tutor and I often get to learn crazy stuff about history in that role, and one of the more mind-blowing things I didn’t know before was that Mussolini’s regime trafficked in the idea that “real” Italians were Aryans—yes, seriously, Mussolini believed himself to be Aryan—a…

But imagine how much spitting.

Why is it safe to assume that the guy was being creepy because of her age? That’s not a logical statement at all.

I realize it’s not the same thing at all, but I was a college teacher for a good portion of my life and I’ve had many a 17- or 18-year-old (of any gender) make extremely graphic sexual passes at me and, believe me, it is both shocking and terrifying, in no small part because you’re aware who will be believed if it…

“amongst my friend group to make mountains out of molehills.” Oh yeah? Amongst them?

I am dying to see Boebert go on a talk show and have the host ask what her vision prescription is. Those shitty fake drugstore glasses are truly something.

I mean, fuck you Kylie Cheung. You are so shockingly ignorant that your “columns” are indicative of Jezebel now.

Okay dipshits who claim to be about privacy: are you just clickbaiting with that genuinely awful head image?

I don’t think I’d hire a copywriter who doesn’t know that the expression is “champing at the bit” and who doesn’t realize that an inanimate object can’t be “wary” of something—this one is super weird; do you mean that it’s a poster warning of these things?—for any reason.

False. Both AP and APA style allow for singular “they.” So it’s pretty thoroughly well established as “allowed” now. (And no, “well established” shouldn’t be hyphenated there because it comes after the verb.)

Wow, well this is a fucking dumb nothingburger of an article pitched with an inflammatory headline.

So you think she shouldn’t have gotten jail time?

Hence why the LDS Church saying that they’re not actively trying to invalidate same-sex marriages now is going to full-on tank the GOP base. I think they’re gradually realizing that this sharp swing toward patriarchal fascism was a very loud flash in the pan that sputtered the world with its burnt grease but has been…
