Yeah, “yams and fried chicken” seem like they’re proxy for black. I would wager that black Tinder users are receiving fewer messages than their white counterparts, and they incidentally are more likely to mention these Soul Food staples in their profiles.

Are we sure this isn’t a... uh... racist thing?

If someone gave me a choice between everlasting love and fried chicken, I’m going with fried chicken every time. I can trust in and believe fried chicken.

Alternatively, who the hell cares? I went into a nearby Voodoo Donut recently, didn’t get anything because they don’t have gluten free options, but they’re just a donut shop that rolls out experimental donuts intermittently and leans into punk/D.I.Y aesthetics. You can buy art by local artists off the wall. Nothing…

I love the caustic suggestion of a Hitler doughnut in the piece. It’s like, I would totally eat the fuck out a Hitler doughnut. Do we seriously need to “unpack” the ethics of munching on Hitler’s face? Fuck, I want a whole dictators series. Put em on spudnuts and call em Dicktaters.

Since Voodoo was first, and they’ve always had what I’ll call an offbeat personality, and they staked out territory in a really shitty pocket of Portland’s city center as a 24-hour-a-day business, there almost certainly was a moment when their appeal was not ironically “hipster.” Many a time I stumbled out of a show…

It’s such a bunch of trying too hard, faux edgy, though. It’s that 90's style, lowest common denominator, “look how offensive we are” type of edgy coupled with lazy, gross, “weird” recipes like putting bubble gum or Captain Crunch on top of a donut. Everything is outdated, stale and your Grandparents’ idea of what’s…

Right? If a family member reached out it would be a little different for me (no sense rubbing salt in the wound) but the buttpipes on twitter masturbating into the ether is so dumb.

Hell, I’d make a Squeaky and a Susan donut as well.

I wish they would’ve doubled down and kept the donuts. I’m not usually one to be so unsympathetic but the folks on twitter who are upset on behalf of other people (who have seen Manson portrayed as a pop culture figure for half a century) really chap my ass.

I remember seeing this place on some Food Network show. The host of the show was sampling one of the crazier donuts and the stereotypical hipster doogus shop owner said “you’re really going to want to hang a fang on that one” and thought to myself the host of this show must have tremendous patience because I would…

You think you can eat this doughnut? It’s already been eaten once, for the sins of the world. You can’t eat a doughnut twice!
You think it’s in your stomach, but it’s free! You’re the one that’s in a stomach, with your rules and your society.

Out of Beach Boys collaborators you could memorialize probably the second worst option after Mike Love

I mean, if you understand what rape culture is then you should know how unhelpful phrases like “rush to judgment” and “absolutist language” are in these cases.

Dude,

This girl is 17 years old. She’s just starting in the business. What possible reason would she have to make up a story like this?

I’m not saying that. I don’t know what really happened. I’m guessing Dunham doesn’t know what really happened. Usually in cases like this, the only people who do know what happens are the accuser and the accused. Dunham could have said nothing. She could have said she’s deeply trouble by the accusations, but doesn’t…

XD

Yeah, my former percussion teacher(who was also later the band director for the school district I went to as a kid) apperently has been molesting pre-teen girls for years and when it finally went public their were a ton of people defending him. People don’t want to believe that they couldn’t possible have known and…

Lena and Jenni sound like every neighbor of mine who wrote the judge letters supporting the neighborhood pedophile who molested my son. They sound just as clueless about the fact that predators don’t just groom their victims; they also groom their supporters.
