I think they are suggesting eggplant can caus miscarriages.

Don’t make me pull this graduation over!!!

*gasp* An intelligent young man with a white mother and a black father grappled with his racial identity as he moved out into the world during his years in higher education, much of it in a very privileged white environment?

SHOCKED. JUST SHOCKED.

I do now. I clearly misread the original statement.

You do realize you’re not making a contrary point? You’re making the same point, but doing it in a way that says “I don’t read for comprehension.”

“Oh god, we don’t have a democrat in office to claim he’ll take our guns, and sales are dropping off! Ummm, we’re at war everyone! QUICK, BUY GUNS AND AMMO FOR THE WAR EFFORT!”

I saw people talking about this last week on Twitter. So many dudes clapped back with “it ain’t rape tho” nonsense that my head exploded. Even when I post an article about someone actually getting convicted for this, I kept seeing “nah” responses.

Preston, thank you so much for this piece. It is disgusting to think that somebody could be so careless and demonstrate such disregard for another person’s bodily and sexual autonomy. I am appalled at the lack sex education, respect and ignorance that people display. Stealthing is absolutely sexual assault, make no…

I wasn’t saying lack of emotional support is abuse. I was saying if you’re not getting that basic, fundamental need filled in a relationship, there’s no point to that. So, I meant if you add disrespect to that (I think disrespect is emotional abuse) what’s the point?

It seems like you recognise that there are some issues in your relationship, as you mentioned in your replies that there’s no emotional support, your friends and his recognise there are problems, and you think you shouldn’t be together. Don’t get hung up on over the label of “abuse,” it’s probably not helpful right…

Without an examples it’s hard to say. It sounds like you and his best friend knows he needs help. Maybe talking to a couples counselor ever if you’re just by yourself would help put things into perspective. If you put a frog into pot of cold water and slow turn up the heat they will boil to death without hardly…

If you think you’re being disrespected, that is emotional abuse. As a Jezzie said on here last summer, the entire point of relationships in this modern society is emotional support. Disrespect isn’t emotional support.

Thank you for this I say the Latasha Harlins every time the opportunity presents instead on a blog etc and I am saddened and surprised how many Americans did not know her story before.

I have Korean colleagues who like to ask “why did they burn the Korean stores during the riots???”(They don’t really care they just like to play victim)

As a business owner, I know that, if I advertise a special promotion, I need to have an adequate plan, resources and staffing to support that promotion. If you say “buy this special thing now!” and then you don’t have enough of the special thing, or you can’t serve your customers in a timely manner, then you’re going…

"Why pretend he was blind?"

When I was a kid, like age 10-15, I used to tell people I had no sense of smell. That was kinda based on a lot of allergies that left me permanently stopped up for a while (and what I later found out was a deviated septum), but it eventually turned into my random weird thing people knew…

Eeeeeehhhhh, most of this evidence seems built in the idea that his eyes are completely dead and not functioning. If he's just seeing big blurry shapes all the time, he'd still be functionally blind and still fully capable of doing this stuff, especially since he's got his other senses and has been relying on them for…
