Yep! They’re pretending like they didn’t have the control to do this THE WHOLE TIME.

Saw another commenter suggest a theory, and Rachel’s words on Kimmel last night seem to support it. They likely want a much more diverse group of contestants for her to date, and they’re trying to get some more last minute applications before they begin filming in 2 or so weeks. If they announced it when they usually…

Juan Pablo literally has blonde hair and blue eyes, so yeah, I’d say he’s pretty white. The only nonwhite part is his orange spray tan.

Right?! Though that entire episode was really one big DLo laugh compilation. The sound of her laugh was haunting me for days following.

That forced fake laugh drove. Me. Crazy.

Have you noticed how common it is for people to have big lavish weddings on plantations lately? Gross.

She’s “confident” in the way that so many loud douchebags are “confident.” That is, she’s overcompensating for her obvious insecurities.

Just curious... but did you happen to get this degree before or after the markets crashed? It pretty clearly showed unchecked markets can be dangerous and volatile.

Yes, but that conflates fascination with glorification. You can find something to be fascinating and awful at the same time, and the tone of the article and video never tried to herald her as a great person.

Moreover, people’s lives that are filled with contradictions and conflict fascinate people. Simple, ordinary people are by and large boring. Since when does the word “fascinating” equate to goodness? But hey, I’m probably a Trump supporter because I enjoy true crime or something.

My guess is that was less of a story only because nobody gives a shit about Steve Harvey. I hear you though.

In several of your initial comments, that was not clear at all. Thank you for clarifying, because it’s an important distinction.

Just so you know, some women who are sexually abused do develop rape fantasies, and not by choice and not for a secret desire to be rape or condone rape. When people experience trauma, the brain can manifest it in strange and not helpful ways. Shaming people for this can just pile upon the shame of already being…

Completely agree. It’s often accompanied by complaints of women being “too emotional.” Men are just as complicated and emotional as women, but when they lash out, they’re being “assertive” or “strong.” I’d argue that their outbursts are often much more inappropriate because they aren’t taught how to deal with their…

Reminds me of Jane from Good Girls Revolt. You can do everything “right” and you will still be spat upon. So sad that show was canceled...

Just coming here to say that I love that you have a historical crush on Big Al. Personally, my biggest historical crush is Eleanor of Aquitaine.

It was supposed to be, but I understand. Still mourning the show’s cancelation!

I’ve has the exact same weird response from conservative guys fetishizing my own “rebellious liberal retorts.” I only encountered it with dudes who lived mostly in conservative bubbles and weren’t used to being around any progressives. It was like they got off on being challenged, but at the same time never took me…

That’s wonderful! An an MN-cat lover, could you tell me the name of the shelter? I’ve volunteered at a few but haven’t come across that one. Caring for Cats (St. Paul) is wonderful, though they only provide free vets care for kitties with with preexisting health issues.
