It’s there because I put it there.

Yeah, there are 1,000 other people who I agree with, or learn from, in regards to racism. I’m just going to ignore all of her opinions, valid or not, from here on out.

I think she is an artist, who is probably pretty broken in the inside because noone cares about her music or anything else she does in her career unless she goes off on people. That’s the only time she gets recognition.

But she’s not the only person out there saying the on point stuff. I’d rather pay attention to other people who aren’t shitting on 14 year olds in the same breath.

Yeah, I basically agree. But I also think about the way we talk about Banks versus Amanda Bynes who has also gone on extensive, racist twitter rants but who is considered mentally ill and abused, though I’d say Banks exhibits a lot of the wild mood swings and delusions of grandeur as Bynes did. I also don’t want to…

Agreed. If you don’t agree with racism then don’t be a part of the problem. You’re accusing someone of plagiarism. Just do that. There is no need to bring in homophobic and islamaphobic language. It’s just sadder when she tried to justify her behavior and chide Zayn for not realizing they are allies as minorities in…

If those comments existed in a vacuum that’d be ok. It’s just sad and completely against the messages she attempts to preach when she discusses being in the same boat with someone but still tries to justify calling them a series of homophobic and racial slurs. It just makes it feel like she says those supposedly…

She has memorized a lot of buzzwords but she doesn’t understand them. During yesterday’s tirade she said, “The oppressed take on the role of the oppressor,” immediately after spewing several racist slurs and then she piled on a few more for good measure. Banks only understands racism as it negatively impacts her, she…

Yes. My internal conflict is that anyone with any inclination to be hideously racist feels even more justified in attacking her. Even when she deserves legitimate criticism what I see directed at her makes me feel gross.

I will only listen if the track list is something like this:

pinkham was da bomb. her family were abolitionists and frederick douglas was her neighbor. there is still a clinic in salem, ma that bears her name and gives free health care and vaccines to poor women and their kids.

I mean, when I was vegan the only thing I craved was human flesh. I think that is just a thing.

How do you know when someone is a vegan?

“According to his children, the dad’s last words were- and I’m paraphrasing here, your Honor- “I want to see a manager, those grills marks look crunchy and I’m allergic to crunchy.”

“After the chef removed the grill marks from the chicken, he sharpened the blackened parts into points and stabbed them in the dad’s eyes, Your Honor.”

This entitled housewife looks back at her impressionable child and calmly says “She is yelling because that girl deserves it, the service is terrible every time we come here.” And then she looked me straight in the eyes.

You know what? No shame in her game. She’s an adult and can do whatever the fuck she wants. The Miley shamers sound like pearl clutching republicans. One worry about my own progressive base is how fucking close minded and judgey we tend to be at times.

Quite infartful...
