When I was about 12 years old, my dad took my brother and me to Vegas for a weekend one summer for some inexplicable reason (male bonding?), even though I was too young (and already too gay) for strippers and couldn’t gamble. My brother was older, so he and my dad spent the day gambling at Caesar’s Palace (where we…

Five year reader, first time poster! This is my one and only IRL ‘paranormal’ experience, probably because I’m a hard core skeptic.
My grandpa, who passed away last year, was a very smart man. He was a medical doctor, and didn’t believe much in spiritual things. He was just a very practical man who always tried to find a scientific explanation for anything strange. My grandpa and grandma had recently moved to a newly developed (and developing)…
This happened June or July of this year... we were having a little backyard BBQ and my son invited his girlfriend over. It was our first time meeting her. We were all sitting in the living room. My husband on one armchair, my son and the girl on the long sofa, with me sitting at the very end. We’re chit-chatting…
Survivors have been asking over and over for people to stop sharing this image. Its triggering and hurtful to them.
with you on this. (as a disabled person.)
From what I can tell this is not a story of someone “helping” a disabled person but just a story of a deafblind person having a conversation. Gawking at it, especially when you directly compare this to watching a video of cute pandas, is inspiration porn and objectification. Do you realize that disabled people have…
I would argue that reporting on this is a further violation of Perry, whether she was or was not a victim of Luke’s. It doesn’t feel like she had any agency in this breaking and that’s gross even if she’s a public figure I’m not particularly interested in
She ended her whole set by shouting “Flint still doesn’t have clean water!”
She brought fire like no one since Colbert basically called Bush a war mongering monster who invented a war, directly to his face.
Why aren’t more people talking about one of the best jabs; Mitch McConnell is getting his neck circumcised. That was fucking gold.
That’s true, I threw that at someone who was talking about unpaid internships being “golden tickets” just the other day.
Technology is severely outpacing ethics, and I really don’t understand the casual nature of this conversation (in general, not this article in particular). Our gender continues to be so objectified that it’s perfectly fine to create robots that look like us and fuck like us but don’t voice themselves like us?? I just…
Has any nation in the Americas elected a black woman as deputy head of state? Because this makes it sound like only Latin America. This is a huge deal.
The fact that these russia loving, humanity hating, classless, cultureless, chinless, dickless, spineless, Garland Merrick blocking, scheming, semi-sentient, greedy blobs of shit with horrible HORRIBLE fitting skin suits have the gall to call anyone else in the entirety of Democracy obstructionist fills me with so…
I look forward to seeing Chloe Grace Moretz in But I’m A Cheerleader II.
He reminds me of my shitbag ex who liked the idea of sleeping with men because it was taboo but wasn’t actually into men—and because his whole jam was using faux-progressivism to hide his abusive shit.
Right? Like she wanted so badly for him to be a good guy. And despite multiple instances of proving himself to be lech-y, she stayed. Hoping the dynamic might change. that he might back off and be a good guy and they might have a chance at a relationship or something. I don’t know.
That’s such a good point—you usually only know your person of interest by their published work, not by their reputation, at that stage in the game, and by the time you’re in it’s too late to go back. You’ll have to stick it out or change your field.
