If you can’t figure out whether the question “did you fuck all your sources” is inappropriate, it says a lot about you. It doesn’t say anything about the question.

This reveals so very, very much about your thinking that I wonder if you knew it would be quite so damning before you posted it.

A woman refusing a drink from a man—unattractive or otherwise—is not harassment, and would not rise to the legal level required for prosecution (or even censure at work). Rather, the act of…

“ asking an honest yet blunt question about the way many journalists ply their trade”

You don’t need to know the context or the entirety of the conversation to know that ‘Did you fuck all your sources?” is inappropriate question. Fuck’s sake. If someone is ignorant, it’s still harassment.

One fun context clue to figure out if this question wasn’t appropriate is that the woman who was asked the question is saying that it wasn’t appropriate.

Good. I wish EVERYONE who claims to be feminist or progressive would sever ties. I’ll never forget the Jia Tolentino piece on Jezebel which in my very humble opinion did not go far enough at all, and the scores of commenters who were willing to give Lena pass after motherfucking pass despite example after…

Great job man! Seriously Jason. You do some of the absolute best investigative journalism not only in the gaming industry, but period.

That awesome moment someone on a video game blog is a better investigative journalist this half the media in the nation. Anyway, I believe he is lying(it’s obvious) but I don’t say that to be mean to him. I wonder what was his reason for doing something like this? It seems very strange. I hope this gets an update.

Ta-Nehisi explains it best.

This is the deal with how the N word works:

Oh, honey.

I think she means that you can be a housewife or a prostitute or a single mom with 6 kids and still be a feminist.

I’m sure all of the responses to this will be measured and nuanced, and definitely not picked apart or be weighed against the fact that she’s a rapper/former stripper/whatever the fuck else white feminists find unacceptable.

Being a feminist is more important than being called a feminist. I think.

You’ve said you don’t engage in romance with colleagues like 50 times in this thread.

You really don’t see the problem with asking a colleague in a professional situation if they’ll watch you masturbate? He has power over the careers/opportunities these women are exposed to. Do you do that at work? Walk into the lunch room and ask the first woman you see if she’ll look at your dick?

Crazy how much people overthink how complicated this all is. It’s really easy to understand!

If you really want the “Heather isn’t fucking around version,” here it is:

Loot boxes are, ignoring the hair splitting of insufferable pedants like yourself, gambling. They are crafted, from probabilities to visual to their contents, to condition individuals and encourage repeated purchase and use. People with…

You should take a look at how Titanfall 2 does monetisation:

Worker and consumer rights are absolutely moral issues, largely because compensation for labor and the cost of goods (at least under capitalism) is fundamentally exploitative in execution. Usually, we roll with it and that’s fine. For instance, I don’t have a problem giving my guy at the bodega a buck for a soda even…
