“People don’t ask that question, but why was there a Civil War?”

I don’t get why anyone who is conservative or Republican would want to align themselves with Milo. To me, he is even worse than Ann Coulter. His entire ethos is simply “making fun of liberals.” Like, I dislike Glen Beck and agree with zero of his beliefs and policy ideas, but at least on his radio show he actually…

I’m pretty surprised at his age as well...25, seriously???

I cannot get enough of this Fyre Festival Failure. Its SO funny to me. Keep the updates coming!

Ha, I live in Miami as well. I’ve watched Ultra become the hedonistic shitshow it currently is over the past decade.

I like this comment. A lot of the comments on this post are kind of humble-braggy and judgmental. I’m sure a bunch of these people have parents paying for their stuff. So? There’s always going to be a demographic of rich kids. And I’m sure the rest of them aren’t actually rich, but they live like they are and max out…

I didn’t realize that nowadays, there is definitely something called “festival culture.” I mean, I’m 25, so I’m the target demographic for stuff like this but its just not my thing. But I’m starting to realize that festivals are more than just seeing good bands, its the whoooole experience.

I think a combination of being from a family with a lot of money but also not doing the whole savings account thing.

Maybe because what he said a) wasn’t a joke and b) wasn’t even really funny? Mostly just fascinating that a man so high up in government can so fundamentally not understand government.

I had a similar moment during Halloween this past year. I cannot compare our situations completely, but this past year I’ve been living alone and working full-time while doing grad school full-time. I am so appreciative that I have a job and get to do graduate school, but I’ll never forgot those intense feelings of…

You are NOT alone and I completely understand the feeling. I’m in my mid-20s and I feel like everyone is getting engaged, getting new and better jobs, moving to awesome cities, having so much fun on weekends, while I’m just working constantly. I really hate social media for this reason, deep down I know that these…

Its a huge problem with contemporary feminism. This belief that if a woman does something, it is automatically empowering and feminist simply because she’s a woman.

Exactly. That’s what so many mental health professionals are upset about, too. It kind of sends a message that suicide happens because of isolated events that are terrible. That’s a terrible message to send to people.

I think it is important to state that he is Cuban because the Cuban demographic has some serious racism problems and is often highly conservative and discriminating to other Hispanics and other races. Also, the OP for this thread stated “aggrieved white male,” implying they assumed Artiles is white. I think its…

The Cuban voting bloc tends to be extremely conservative, and there is rampant racism within the South Florida Cuban and Cuban American community.

Its...amazing. I was in the thick of binge-watching this show while simultaneously in the thick of a pretty huge job search. Fortunately I got my dream job, I’m moving, I’m making more money...and Hulu should have the latest season of Pump Rules up soon. LIFE IS GOOD.

Its pure escapism, and also oddly comforting to watch young attractive people live their lives in perpetual stasis with no long-term plans while the rest of us slave away, with goals and ambitions and rent and commitments.

Right, also in the beginning when she writes at length about how when TSA tells her to do something she doesn’t “scream and run and throw a tantrum like a toddler” baffled me because...neither did the guy on the United flight? Like it kills me that she actually tries to use the argument of “there are two sides to…

I thought Season 5 was phenomenal.

Come on, you don’t actually believe that. Most people DESPISE Lena Dunham and Girls. Whenever The Atlantic or NYT post anything about Girls, the comments are just vicious.
