I had the same book! I saw an updated version recently, and was super impressed with the sections they’d added. As I recall, there was a whole part about sexual orientation and there might have been some additional body image stuff that wasn’t in the version I had.

I think we can simultaneously acknowledge that a) it's super-shitty of people to say she looks "disgusting" and b) it's also pretty shitty of her to be playing the "golly gee, I have no idea why I'm so thin! must be my cancer meds" game when she has a documented history of eating disorders and espouses all kinds of …

Gigantic truth bomb here, and one of the better work-related pieces I've ever seen on Lifehacker.

When I was in high school, I wrote an entire play about my boyfriend dumping me. For whatever reason, the drama teacher thought it would be a good idea to put that piece of shit on stage.

I still cringe with embarrassment when I think about it, and it's been well over a decade.

Equal pay is reverse discrimination. We white men are used to receiving a 23% premium. To deny us this premium is to punish us with a pay-cut simply because we have a penis.

In all fairness, men are known for being bad at math.

as someone who was arrested and plead guilty for stealing tampons and a bra from target as a homeless 18 year old I say fuck yes to this being a thing.

"To automatically to be lumped into that category of a gang... that hits a little close to home for us, because that isn't our intent at all," Strobl said.

I'm picturing your father handing some hapless associate boxes of increasingly heavy kitchen appliances for him to carry. Best revenge tactic ever.

Azealia gives me Kanye feels. Like I hear you, yas I get you, but also could you maybe sit down for a second and like idk get a rough draft together?

Ah-yup. Putting on a curly wig doesn't make a person Jonathan Swift, and slapping the word satire on an article doesn't make it more than a failed attempt at humor and edginess.

I don't think Swift has friends so much as she has photo ops.

Kara, I know you're just being funny and not totally serious and using Tay Tay as a way to highlight something that's been talked about around here for awhile, White people with zero Black friends. I love you and this is just a little constructive criticism: Don't. Do. This. Again.

Is anyone else seeing red over the fucking Ravens telling her to apologize publicly?? That is the part that is really blowing my mind- why are they not getting serious heat over their actions? I mean, fuck Ray Rice, fuck the NFL, fuck Roger Goddell -but what about the Ravens??? Not only did they know she was…

"If it's not okay to blame the victims for what was done to them, then it's also not okay to blame the rest of the fallout's collateral damage on anybody but Bill Cosby."

This is incredibly nonsensical. Will we no longer charge people for aiding and abetting?

In your haste to remove any culpability from Bill Cosby's…
