There are so many aspects of this story that make Rodgers an asshole but the attempt to shift the conversation to “The woke mob is trying to get me,” before anyone even really knew the story was Prime Assholism. A lot of casual fans (and non-fans) were trying to figure out what the hell was going on and he’d already…

You know, what is surprising me most is the rest of his team not going off on him. I mean, they are literally inches from each other in a huddle.  I would have lost my shit on him, especially when you consider this could cost them millions.

First off, I believe that Rodgers lied in the most weasely way possible, the doubled-down on that lie in the rest of that press conference as well as violated COVID exposure rules to put their health of the Packers press corps in jeopardy without their consent.

I work in IT policy and am visible enough that I do not publicly comment on these things. I work for a company that does not police what I say. I work a lot on local advocacy and state advocacy but not related to the area of policy where I work. It is a big no-no. Being in leadership is complicated and I do not want…

Yes, you would probably have to pick your (public) friends very wisely if you wanted to be the Vice President of Global Public Policy for one of the largest, most influential multinational corporations to ever exist. Especially as they edge closer and closer to gov't. regulation.

I hope all those women who read and raved about Sandberg’s book Lean-in are embarrassed they recommended it to their friends.

Facebook isn’t even trying to be good at dealing with scrutiny!

I didn’t hear much else, because it was the 90s, and we didn’t have the internet.

This happens to my brothers as well. They’re tall and athletic looking and the number of times other men have tried to start fights with them for ... existing while tall?? is astounding.

I have cousins who are very tall, and in their part of the UK it meant that they were constantly being challenged to fight by drunk dickheads every time they went out to a pub.

I get that the legal system is a cold-hearted bastard, but holy shit. “We’re gonna need you to go ahead and itemize that trauma for us, mmmkay? ‘Cuz we don’t know that having pics of your dead family members shared around and leered at by a bunch of ghouls would be any different from only having your family members…

I’m a pretty big dude. Back when I was a bouncer, and much more fit, the whole job is basically reading body language and all kinds of stupid primate posturing. When you’re that hyper-cognizant of it, it’s amazing how often you see backward cap bros try and take somebody down a peg for literally no other reason than…

There’s that moment in...Skyfall?? Where Javier Bardem insinuates something sexual and Daniel Craig oozes back “what makes you think you’re my first,” with a confidence that always made me think it was not just acting. Even if he’s straight straight, I have no issue with allies at the gay bar as long as they’re not…

If all he is doing is drinking and not harassing the other patrons, like for example hitting on the Lesbian couples, or making homophobic comments, then as lesbian leaning bi-woman, I say let him come in. I don’t care. In fact I would say that is him being a good ally, and allies are always welcome in LGBT spaces.

I lost my third child 28 years ago, in my thirty-fourth week of pregnancy. That remains to this day the most devastating thing that has ever happened to me. I can't even fathom being criminalized and imprisoned following the death of my son. The idea takes my breath away.

Me neither. I’m not sure what that person’s deal is. Periods are a normal biological process. We’re all adults here (hopefully). It’s time for us to let go of our hangups about the human body.

For example, trans women in our group find cis-periods gross...

What the fuck? Good Lord I hope none of you are parents with a child who will menstruate.

He does have the freedom to say what he wants and he did say it. Freedom to say what you want doesn’t mean there are no consequences or opinions. 

I wish that would happen.  Hearing about the police dropping the investigation made me wonder why we even try to get the rich and powerful anymore.

I mean, sure, Chappelle is doubling down on some very problematic stances here, but...really? We’re doing the “I never thought he was funny, unlike you plebes” thing?
