Fuck him. How often do young black boys from bad neighborhoods who assault people in the course of a robbery get pardons? No wait, actually if he were black he would probably still be in jail.

No one is asking Wahlberg to get on his knees and beg anyone for forgiveness. People are pointing out just how fucked it is that a man who enthusiastically participated in several violent, racist attacks is now loudly whining over the fact that his violent racism is making it very slightly harder for him to become…

I'm extremely relieved to know that his victim wasn't permanently injured because of the attack.

Not even in corporate environments or academic ones. Simple day to day interactions from who your friends with to who you date. The subconscious of people can be a scary racist place even with the most accepting person. As soon as you look at my dark skin andour subconscious will take over some even if you don't…

There should be a study done about skin color's effect on hiring in corporate environments, controlling for region of country/ world. In the Gulf South for instance, if you go in any large office building, where everyone there has a degree, nearly every time, it's an all-white environment, with a few light skinned…

As a dark skinned woman, not only does this NOT surprise me, but I can relate to it. I've never been suspended at school for anything, but I've been punished for petty shit. When I was 14 my friends and I were playing with markers at a grocery store. This white lady who works there was asking us what we were doing…

Here is the NYT article: http://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/11/us/…

I am reading Nell Bernstein's "Burning Down the House: The End of Juvenile Prisons."

This is covered quite beautifully in the documentary "Dark Girls": http://officialdarkgirlsmovie.com/about/

Realistically I spent way more on the Spice Girl Chupa Chups at Limited Too over the years.

Personally I much prefer her argument about the cruelty of hidden births and dumping of babies to dies in the elements in comparison to abortion. It's not something articulated often but is so valid.

Never skip leg day.

I'll just copy and paste what I wrote on Gawker:

I have a huge list of things I like to masturbate before partaking in, including but not limited to: job interviews, flights, big presentations, exams, first dates, holiday parties, and any long car ride. But I also like to masturbate for any old reason, like "I am nude and my vagina is there and I have 10 minutes to…

What's our excuse? I don't know, life sure is hard for us singles who have standards.

"The looting and arson was unnecessary, but it is not and never will be worse or more sad than police willfully shooting unarmed black people."

Uh, I guess my point was more that I think the overwhelming majority of criticism against Kanye (particularly for absurd nonsense like in this article) is racially driven. There's a huge subtext to a lot of the "OMG KANYE IS CRAAAAZY" comments.

When dolphins launch satellites into space, or create great works of literature, or form a government, that's when I'll lend any credence to the idea that other species matter as much as we do.

"There are plenty of less harmful options that offer just as many (if not more) nutritional benefits as meat."

Yes, but they don't taste as good, and frankly, a life without meat isn't a life worth living (at least for me). It's not about nutrition, it's about being able to enjoy your food. If I were to eat vegetarian…

Guys, it is nonsense to get angry over this. I've read so many articles pleading for plus size clothing, and when that demand is met you shame them for charging more?
