@fuerzabruta: You know it, darling.
@fuerzabruta: You know it, darling.
@Nuckin Futz for you: Dear Team Cake:
@fuerzabruta: Nah, cheesecake was our ace in the hole. It should be allowed and celebrated for the Queen of Pies that it is.
@fuerzabruta: That was just pure fuckery. It should have been disallowed, because I hates it.
@Dangertastic: What are the ingredients? I think my husband would love that.
A catfish is really a CAT! It says so right in the name! Taxonomy and biology be damned, the name says CAT!
@clamme: Your definition of pie is so limited that it makes me question your entire world view. Consider: chicken pot pie, pizza and quiche—all pies, no fruit. Savoury pies are delicious, nutritious and speak to the versatility of pie.
Look, I get your righteous outrage, and I completely agree that we must have the conversation about racism, both overt and insidious. But you seem to be saying that anyone who thinks baseless speculation about Bullock's knowledge—or lack thereof—of James' views and actions is premature is essentially excusing racism.
@SUNNY1: What is cake trying to hide?
@Imjustnotthatintoyou: Agreed. This whole thing has left a very bad taste in my mouth. Jezebel mocks tabloids that speculate wildly about the inner lives of celebrities. And here it is doing just that, albeit with better grammar.
@Katharsis: Peter! Peter!
@OldEnough2BYourMama: Cheesecake is clever that way. It lures in people who think they love cake and then takes off the mask and says, "Aha! I am pie and YOU LOVE ME! You are Team Pie and your pie predilections have been exposed!"
@PaigeTurner: Welcome to Team Awesome.
@gingergal7: It's taken me 40+ years to get to snozz acceptance like you have. Hearted.
@rodmanstreet: It's insanity! Down is up! Good is bad! In is out! Nothing makes sense anymore.
@DonnaPirana: ZOINK! Into saved jpegs you go, Disapproving Rabbit.
@yvanehtnioj: Magnificent.
@Oleander: One more thing: there is a large difference between respecting another person and respecting their actions and opinions. I don't believe every opinion is worthy of respect. People, however, are—especially when we accept that giving respect is more about who we are than who they are.
@Oleander: I understand the impulse. The author's point is that respecting the other person says more about us than it does about them. It helps to forge a positive relationship that allows for dialogue. And it's the dialogue that changes minds rather than force, disdain and hatred.
@Oleander: I'm reading a book right now called "The Power of a Positive No" as part of a conflict resolution and negotiation class I'm in. One of the points made in the book is that hate is not going to sway anyone to your side but respect—no matter how repugnant the actions of the other person—will. To teach that…
