RIP BCO...

What the hell are these women so happy about? “DERP DERP, I just assaulted someone and got my kids in on the action because I felt entitled to not have to wait 37 goddamn seconds for my shitty fast food!”

Of all the things to be gleeful about, assaulting a minimum wage worker (I presume) has got to be the dumbest shit I’ve seen all week.

Macklemore def doesn’t have a “blaccent,” I think they were just invoking him in terms of less-talented, more-popular, white performer.

Potentially dumb question: I see Macklemore referenced when discussing white appropriation of traditional rap/hip-hop. (Does seem ultra not cool/suspicious that he wins Best Rap Album over Kendrick Lamar.) Is the appropriation due to the genre, or does he have the same “voice” problem as Iggy and Trainor?
I ask

Sir or madam, I am highly offended by your post. Everyone knows that Wonder Twin Jayna can only turn into animals and Wonder Twin Zan can only turn into forms of water. You anti-exxorian bigots are all the same. How dare you.

Yes it is rape. He got her drunk. Even if he didn’t get her drunk, it’s rape by fraud. He doesn’t own a porn company he was never going to put her in video. Fuck you for siding with a rapist.

I thought (hoped) that was all fake.

It wouldn’t be her property though. It’s being raised to help her but it’s not being raised by her so it’s the property of whoever is running the GoFundMe or the lawyers if they’ve set it to go directly to them - not entirely sure if you can do that on GoFundMe.

I’m from Texas and considering the age of majority here is 17 I’m very confused about how they are allowed to do this. Or maybe that’s just for age of consent and being prosecuted as an adult.

I’m certain the legal process they’re referring to is an attempt to emancipate her.

If we say it’s a choice then the right wing will pounce on that and claim that it doesn’t deserve civil protections. Which, as a Christian is complete and utter bullshit. My being protected from discrimination because of what faith I choose to follow isn’t more important than protection from discrimination for sexual

I’m so glad for Sarah that not all of her family are shitlords. My heart breaks for the kids at the facility that aren’t that lucky. All of these military-style/hard labor camps for “troubled” teens should be illegal, they're abuse straight up.

Yeah - I think a lot of the big spender friends are either not saving any $ or subsidized. They are not necessarily being responsible with their cash.

I had the joy of meeting Mr. Simmons in 2012. He was doing something at the offices I worked at and he stopped at each person’s desk and asked for a hug. He was intermittently laughing and crying. I don’t think anyone got any work done after he visited because we were all riding high off of it.

I hope he is okay. He seems so sweet and gentle.

“Commodifies women’s bodies...” On the one hand, when you say that everyone knows what it means, but I feel like it’s become such a shibboleth in discussion of sex work that it needs some teasing out. There are lots of ways for women to commodify their bodies that we don’t care about, like if they get paid to be a

My body is right here. No one owns my body but me. I sell service and I pick what the services are. Yes, I talk about sex work in the abstract because that is how civilians like to talk about sex work. I have seen more than a few civilians ignore my comments so they can wring their hands with another person that
