Agree with all you’ve said, plus I love her because she’s from my hometown of Raleigh, NC and the daughter of a beloved actor/community figure here in NC, Ira David Wood III!

1. No. (Well, Jess was a shit boyfriend but he grew out of that and turned out awesome. Plus he was pretty good at calling out the hypocrisy of people like Lorelai and Luke.)

YES. A million times yes. But I feel like Revival Jess is way too good for Revival Rory, sadly...

I don’t mean to single you out because lots of people are doing it, but it’s weird that you assume the store owners were white and that their behavior was solely motivated by racism. Admittedly the way this story was written kind of asks for that conclusion. But as mentioned in an above comment, the store employees…

Obama showed up a week later because HE WAS ASKED TO by Louisiana’s governor. Trump’s publicity stunt actually encumbered relief efforts. But low information voters don’t give a shit about the facts; they only care about optics. And we wonder why politicians lie to us...

Except that she was basically pressured into taking “Clinton” because the media and the great state of Arkansas couldn’t handle a woman keeping her last name at the time. She initially wanted to be known as Hillary Rodham, then Hillary Rodham Clinton.

No, it doesn’t. You may be in favor of keeping it, maybe even for some valid reasons, but your argument here is bullshit. There is no reason having every vote from every person count the same goes counter to “all men are created equal.” And yes, I know the argument about rural vs. city interests. There are also white…

Except the sides aren’t the same. There is fairness and there is acknowledging huge and important differences. Protesting a racist, sexist demagogue is different than protesting someone who is not. Some criticisms and protests are based in reality, some are not. I do agree that bitching about the EC is not helpful at…

You know you can protest something even if it’s technically legal, right? Protesting is a way for the people to show how they’re feeling and let politicians know what matters to them. Trump has released his 100 day plan and his transition committee, stacked with terrible ideas and dangerous people. That sounds like a…

As someone with the exact same sign taped up in her window, I say AMEN. Fuck this moral relativism false equivalency bullshit. You can dislike Obama, I don’t really give a shit, but he did not campaign on outright hatred, discrimination, war crimes, and fascism. If I can add one tiny drop to the ocean of people…

So, they shouldn’t protest then? I commend those protesting where the stakes are higher, but your sentiment is really petty.

Wow, that’s crazy- I thought I had just discovered my fiance’s secret Jezebel account for a second. I put up an almost identical sign in my window yesterday! Minus the crying face, that’s a nice touch.

I agree with pretty much everything you said here. I interpreted how the person above was meaning “not for” differently than she apparently meant it. I definitely think it is worthwhile to look at who an artist is speaking to, what her context is, all of that. I just wanted to push back on the notion that a person…

Ok yeah, I can get behind that! Though I think it’s equally possible Beyonce (and those who co-wrote and co-created the companion film) intended Lemonade for all people as a window into her experience in the context of being a black woman in America. Or a combination of what you and I said! I haven’t really heard her…

Exactly. I mean, I thought it was a pointless video and not all that entertaining (I do love Joan Cusack tho), but it’s not really a parody or even saying anything worthy of outrage. It’s just some coworkers/friends making a corny lip syncing video. I used to do it with my friends in high school, but Amy has a few…

I’m sorry but I think it’s ridiculous to say that a piece of pop music is “not for” anyone. Beyonce is a commercial artist. She makes commercial music that she promotes and sells to millions of people regardless of race. Obviously she is creating art that comes from her experience as a black woman, and I think it’s…

you’re ridiculous

You’re doing the lord’s work. I just don’t understand this complete lack of self-reflection. It honestly frightens me that a person could be so manipulative and project so much.

Thank you! Jesus Christ people are neurotic.

Daily bathing can absolutely upset that if you use harsh soaps.
