Can I say I love Beyonce, but I roll my eyes at the stans? Although this article has only had what seem to be sane fans. A few years ago this would have been just all caps yelling and gifs.

This. I don’t like the idea of this kind of comparison. They are each good at what they do. Let’s not pit two women against each other this way.

Brit and Bey are two very different pop artists, they don’t need to have their performances compared. Enjoy one, both, or be sad and gain nothing from their work.

DGMW I love Bey but LORD that performance was the definition of extra. Like ok we get it you’re a great live performer. Jfh we didn’t need 20 freaking minutes on what’s supposed to be an awards show for multiple artists. I know people around here worship the ground she walks on and I’m a pretty big fan myself, but…

The Owner of Gristedes Wants You and I Me to Know the Ice Cream Bandits Have Been Captured

Unpopular opinion: Jennifer Lawrence is unbelievably overrated.

It’s important to note that she didn’t use “colored people” as an alternative to “black people” but as an alternative to “people of color.” She’s talking about Asians, Latinos, and every other group of film characters that Hollywood casts with white actors. From a simple language standpoint, the leap from “people of…

Taking Caster out doesn’t get you a medal, but thanks for being a sore loser, Lynz.

I don't think anyone's experience precludes them from making a valid argument

I don't think any of us can say that porn didn't make this situation worse. If that is her truth I am not here to take it from her.

I say that if pursuing this calling helps her feel better, then we leave her be. She’s not likely to convince anyone of anything, nor harm anyone else.

Yeah, I’m getting tired of these Purity Tests leading to binary judgments on who is or isn’t okay to like and enjoy. But I’m old, so I accept that I’m out of the loop on this. I like Amy. I will continue to like Amy, even if her friends are dickbags that she doesn’t immediately set fire to in a public setting.

I am not a big Schumer fan but honestly I can’t get myself worked up over this. Like Kurt Metzger is a shit bag, no question but why does she need to answer for his bad behavior? That is what I am not understanding about this whole ordeal. The focus is no longer that Kurt and men like him have some BULLSHIT ideas…

Come on, dude. He said “a smart understanding of what rape is becoming and what we’re now understanding about it.” He’s making exactly the point you say he should be making. Jesus, why does this conversation always devolve into policing people for not phrasing things in exactly the way people like you approve of?

Look, she’s put herself forward as a professional who is literally being paid for what she looks like. In any other profession drawing comparisons about the metrics that are part of their job would be fair game. This isn’t the public targetting a random child or the hapless, blameless child of a star being picked on…

I don’t get the Taylor hate. She is annoyingly positive, talented(not really my cup of tea but still), polite, great to her fans and donates to a ton of money to worthy causes in obscene amounts. And as far as I know she has never been arrested? Sadly it’s on Jez that I see that most Taylor hate too 😕

The people of Louisiana probably don’t care if it is for publicity or to rehab her image or whatnot. They’ll take it.

Is there a way to acknowledge all that while also allowing slaves, in our cultural narrative, the sexual drive and agency of all adults?

Sure, the whole story seems wrong, and the victim clearly was hurt by whatever happened.

He said that shortly after the alleged rape. He could have said that then and still have evolved into a better understanding of consent and women’s rights now.
