Between yoga workouts, a privileged white woman wipes off her cucumber facial scrub, sets down her glass of Prosecco, and widens her eyes at her latest brilliant epiphany.

I went through a similar journey, Natasha. I always felt conflicted eating meat, given my love of animals. So I tried a few times to become a vegetarian but did it badly, resulting in failure. Then I made arbitrary rules like “I can’t eat it if it still looks like an animal” (think cornish game hens) or “I don’t eat…

As long as you try your fucking best to kill that deer in a quick and clean way I have no issue with it at all. To me there is a very big divide between hunting for “sport” and hunting for dinner or even hunting to control animal populations so they do not damage a balanced ecosystem.

Wait... are you comparing slaughtering animals for food to actual human slavery? You don’t see how that analogy is really, severely fucked up?

No, I simply have a different perspective. I am a special education teacher and spend my days with children who are in the process of realizing that other people are smarter than them.

That sentence (and the entire article really) is just addressing the confusion some people feel over why people who “have it all” would choose to end their own lives. That confusion is out there, regardless of whether you feel it, and it isn’t entirely unreasonable. I think it’s an important idea to tackle. And by the…

If he had started sleeping with my daughter 10 years later after me giving birth to his child....y’all....Y’ALL....just put some money on my books at the commissary. I’d have been in jail.

She deferred to me, and I was happy to give her an enormous amount of decision making just as a gift and let her take charge of so many things.

I loved the Caterina-Cesare scenes in The Borgias. Gina McKee was fantastic.

she also wasn’t arrested for a DUI?

I was thinking Fraffleck.

Har-har! Linda Tripp complaining about someone lacking “integrity”. I assume she keeps all the mirrors in her house covered.

Hot Take: White dude complains that colored women are complaining about nothing.

so what you’re saying is that my tax money is being used to investigate the completely legal practice of organ/tissue donation?

In #unvarnished I interviewed over 150 workers&owners whose careers encompassed minimum 700 salons. One biased man renders them voiceless?

“I’ve been to Auschwitz three times...I have stood at that oven door”

Because it’s verboten or because those aren’t choices that you want to make for yourself? There’s a difference.
