And we, as the American public, have a right to ignore her because her whole schtick is bullshit.

I was going to say Hemingway. She would have sounded exactly like him if she'd talked more about drinks and ended up fucking Miguela.

Oh yeah, you're right, readership numbers. It's like how Harvard isn't a powerful or influential institution, because really how many people even go there? And how many people even wear Alexander McQueen or DKNY? And wouldn't this be more compelling if the author had referenced cornrows worn by Kristen Stewart while…

Because the significance of the problem is based on its cumulative effect, every example contributes meaningfully. Kara actually points this out by questioning why the LA Times would publish it- why this sort of thing makes it through the editing process.

OMG not only are you ridiculous but you're insanely stupid. The reach of the article, which is not as small as you seem to think it is, is not the problem with the article. It's the blatantly racist way it erases black people when discussing a trend among some set of white women that is taken directly from black…

If the article is read on the net rather than in print then it still has impact. The idea that an institution is dying because people aren't buying its hard copy product has no impact because people are reading the articles on the net is asinine. The article is being read by the same damn people who would read it in…

I didn't read the article in print. I read it on the web so your theory about dying media is makes about as much sense as the idiotic article I just read.

You just really enjoy failing at life, yeah?

You're failing at not being a #notallwhitepeople sort of guy.

I'm happy that we live in a world where people can dress and do their hair the way they chose. But my problem is that for so long us black women where made fun of for all these "new" styles. I remember me and my sisters and friends being made fun of by our white classmates for having fake hair, being made fun of by…

Not at all. I'm condemning her for undervaluing the seriousness of eating disorders. You can't turn anorexia on and off like a switch, and people don't simply become anorexic because some asshole told them to lose weight. People who develop eating disorders have a history of being psychologically abused.

>But I don't see how you can argue it's a common problem with games when you begin with your conclusion and then present things which support it. It's no way to make an argument if you want to actually convince people.

KARA, I AM WHITE AND HAVE NOTICED THE HAIRS ON MY FOREHEAD ARE SOMEWHAT THIN. THEREFOR ALL YOU HAVE WRITTEN IS INVALIDATED. —Signed, Every idiot.

Yeah, she definitely isn't playing very many games. And definitely not ones that are massively popular and best reveal exactly what the gaming zeitgeist is about.

yeah I'm kind of amazed at all the white girls commenting to say they have baby hairs too. Congratulations, moron?!

Doesn't matter what the author of the post said, Jez commenters will forever ignore the point of the article and make it about them.

You know what? The casual/hardcore gamer distinction is horseshit.

In the UK, women's magazines tend to have content that would make you look like a psychopath if you collected it in a notebook. Scandal, crime, horrible injuries, affairs, abuse, recipes, fashion, death, and diet tips. And massive pictures of smiling women near grim story titles.

i actually eat breakfast out of a pug skull every day.

Surely if she is charging $13000 per pup she could afford to pay someone to proofread her website.
