Yeah, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with Tilda Swinton sending her an email. She made it clear that Cho didn’t have to respond or humor her. It feels pretty cut and dry.

Slutpanic is generally very defensive/strawman-y. It’s not worth the effort.

it’s not. Nor is it Johnny Depp and Tonto. List goes on. If I received that same email from someone and you replaced “Asian” with “Hispanic”, I’d light up at the openness of the individual writing it and wanting to understand what the issues are, or what exists there... and if there are ways to improve from their end.

Black dude here. I think one of the reasons we say “white person doesn’t get it” it is because unless you have immersed yourself in the culture, the people, and traditions it really is hard to get it. In America white culture is presented as the norm (TV, movies, magazines, politics for the most part) so different…

Also emphases how just as important it is what you DON’T DO WRONG as much as what you do right, despite the media and the voters’ short attention span and high expectations. There’s never a news article that says “President avoids disastrous misstep again today due to ignorance of cultural or historical context,” but…

A few years ago, maybe 2013 or 14, Secretary Hillary Clinton came to my work (not Wall Street, tech company) for a fireside chat and to promote her book. She talked at length about her experience as SOS, and one thing she discussed was how much “small offenses” matter to so many leaders and countries around the world,…

• He joins a fellow billionaire—an Amway heiress and major political donor—who will be running the Department of Education.

Like the Trump’s eat leftovers, though.

“Paris, you complete me.” -Rory to Paris, after their shock same-sex wedding.

It’s totally possible for him to have a legitimate mental illness, for which he needs treatment and support, and for him to be a blow-hard who thinks he is a “genius” and “deep” despite being a middling talent and a member of America’s shallowest family. They aren’t mutually exclusive, but ignoring the former in favor…

Given that he just released a huge album and was in the middle of a super-profitable tour, I have no idea.

I think they’re (we’re) specifically pinging off Dunham because much of her so-called activism has ‘me-me-me-it’s all about me’ qualities. She’s rich enough to go if she wanted to, and she can stay without making a thing of it in the press, but no she just HAD to say some shit about staying to fight on, a fight by the…

Good job there trivializing mental illness.

I read that on Instagram and eye-rolled hardcore especially at the part when she mentioned that because she has a relative who is lgbt that makes her better at surviving ( exactly what I have no idea).

Because you’re an asshole.

But this is also really very different from the NC governor election whackadoodlery that’s happening right now

Well, the director of the NSA said and this is a direct quote, “This was a conscious effort by a nation-state to attempt to achieve a specific effect. This was not something that was done casually. This was not something that was done by chance. This was not a target that was selected purely arbitrarily.”

I feel like: 1. if there’s going to be a civil war, having a President Trump might delay it, but won’t stop it,

As a humble (and fascinated) computer science major at a tiny community college in Asheville, I can say that there is enough evidence to at least look into it. There are unusual coincidences, anomalies that have happened (more unusual than anything McCrory is bitching about) that could either a) be evidence of…

Yep. Got a woman, got a Negro...what’s next? We need a Jew for Treasury! Shut up, Bannon! It’s only one!
