I loved how she asked her doctor this season if she could still have garlic when he told her she had to change her diet! Wishing her all the hot wiseguys and garlic in the great beyond!

We saw her at a party last year. She was BIG. Big frame, big smile, big laugh. And from what I’ve heard big heart. Never watched the show though. Someone had to tell us who she was.

Big Ang was the shit

I love it too, and I’m really sad about this! She was diplomatic and level-headed, which is basically unheard-of on reality TV. Watching the rest of the season is going to be bizarre knowing she passed. Rest in peace, Big Ang; hope the gabagool and garlic and olive oil is abundant in Heaven.

R.I.P. Big Ang, you're off to that big reality show in the sky!

Bear in mind that men are also stalked, and are even less likely to be taken seriously. When I opened up to my colleagues about being stalked, a man revealed to me he’d been stalked and threatened for years by a former neighbour. After the usual questions about “did they have a romantic relationship?” and “what did…

Hey, jackass, Lex was a friend of mine and was a very smart woman. Try not to be a garbage human when talking about people you don't fucking know who suffered from mental illness. She worked hard and did the bachelor as one of many try new things in her field type exploits. She also hosted a radio show and supported…

She’s a librarian, and her issue was literacy. IIRC, it wasn’t in the news much because A) literacy is absolutely uncontroversial, and B) she avoided the spotlight.

Thats A) because you didn’t make an effort to pay attention, and B) AKA the main reason, because the media treats Democrat and Republican first ladies differently. Laura Bush was (and is) an adamant education advocate, but you would never get the same media attention you do for her that you do for Hillary or Michelle.

It’s always fascinated me that a large segment of the general public always has a negative knee- jerk reaction to first ladies who actually want to accomplish something with their platform like Hillary, Michelle, Chirlane, etc that’s any more involved than Nancy Reagan’s innocuous “Just Say No” or Laura Bush’s…

I’m not really sure it’s fundamentally different than politicians hiring their longtime college friends to be their chiefs of staff or whatever.

Naw, the article is hopelessly stupid and pushing an agenda.

so because it doesn’t fit in within your personal, unrelated views the science isn’t worth questioning?

Jezebel doesn’t do science well. That’s been long established.

I don’t understand why people are projecting their personal feelings onto research questions like this. It isn’t a social science study, it is a biological science study.

Yeah, I don’t get the snark. Science is about asking and answering such questions.

From a strictly scientific standpoint, it is an interesting question.

“Pop singer-songwriter Ryn Weaver laid into Katy Perry”

It’s all well and good to express doubt about this being the white reaction to the song. But by claiming that “most white people have no opinion on this song,” you’re doing the same thing you accuse others of doing, i.e. speaking for a giant group of people whose views you really don’t know. Maybe you should stop to…

As a person previously ambivalent to Beyoncé, I enjoyed the song and the video immensely. If it’s *not your taste* that’s one thing. If it strikes fear into your white heart... I don’t know what to tell you.
