reminds me of the galveston hurricane story where after the storm, rescuers walked the beach looking for survivors in the wreckage. someone found a bit of rope & began pulling on it. turned out it was a group of children who had been roped together to keep them from being carried away by wind &/or waves. they were all…
The Port Chicago (California) explosion during WW2 is another horrifying one. Not as awful as the Halifax explosion, but still huge — one report said the fireball was two miles across.
The account of everyday life disrupted by devastation makes me think of a great telling of The Great Molasses Flood I read in Reader’s Digest when I was a kid. Can’t find it but here’s the rundown:
I guess the case could be made that “cis” in this context could specifically mean the way cis women are handled, but it falls apart once you remember the actual things women who are trans get asked, which includes shit like... “are you a top or a bottom?”
Jezebel is the only female-oriented site on GO. “For women” is right there in the tag line. So why is this story on here? Why not on A.V. Club or Splinter or Adequate Man? Why is it up to the womens’ site to make room for a story about gay men’s sexual politics or whatever the point of this is? How is it relevant?
I’m not accusing you of anything, I was just bringing up how the article conflates three different kinds of questions. The Burgess question was fair game, Madonna’s question was a bit of a sore spot for her but not as invasive as “top or bottom”.
Cis means not trans--I think you mean queer or gay/bi/lesbian/etc.
I’m pro-Sivan on this one. Is Bloom a bottoming-anthem? Absolutely. But, for any of the non-gays in the comment-sphere, bottom-shaming is such a huge thing, especially for someone as high profile as Troye is.
Right? I don’t see young cis pop stars being asked shit like “Do you like reverse cowgirl?” or whatever.
Honestly I think this one was different than the other examples- I love Titus Burgess but asking “How do you feel as a gay man working with a man once famous for his homophobia?” is different than “How exactly do you have sex?”
I completely disagree with this description of “journalism”. It boils down to “if the person interviewed is mad about something I asked, then that must have been a good question.”
The user name of the guy you replied to is a slur used by white supremacists who think they’re super clever. Not calling you out, just a PSA for yet another stupid, cruel phrase stupid, cruel people use to be stupid and cruel. Don’t give him any more oxygen, let the rot eat him up from the inside.
Philadelphia calls the cops on black people for sitting in Starbucks, so my money is someone at local Old Navy management trying to pull a fast one here. Naturally, Corporate is going to tap dance after the fact, but I doubt the show did this - it’s not a huge film production.
That’s what I was thinking, in real world operation it would be too dangerous to drive at night, in tunnels, etc, like covering your car in a true mirror finish except the opposite.
I wonder if it’s difficult to keep something painted with vantablack clean, considering that every speck of dust resting on it is thousands of times more reflective than the surface color.
F the guy that owns the rights to vantablack.... Pinkest Pink guy is a level of petty I can only hope to achieve...
Fuck Vantablack and fuck Anish Kapoor.
I had to right-click search Google. Then I was like “oh, right, that guy...”
