Oh yeah it was incredibly stupid for her to say anything. She might as well get a forehead tattoo that says “Dumb-Ass.” Backwards, so she can read it in the mirror.

1) Yes, I’ve been cheated on. And the other woman, instead of being contrite, kept popping up in my life and confronting me. Because, all too frequently, it’s about getting self-esteem by “proving” you’re hotter/better than the wife/girlfriend. Which is why this pat little logic of only blaming the partnered person…

...No. If Philip Roth was allowed to write the same fucking story over and over, about boring, ruthless men on navel-gazing quests for sexual fulfillment — and win prizes for it — and be called one of the greatest writers of his generation — I think we as a culture can afford Beyoncé space to take what is personal to h…

So because she has an album showing the journey of going through some very human and natural reactions to trust being broken in a marriage, it is drama? You think referring to a woman using her music as catharthis, and being honest about how she felt as “drama” isn’t ingrained misogyny? She put him on blast with many…

I mean you can. But I think it wouldn’t really be fair.

Not because it happened in a rural area, but because nearly an entire family was wiped out. We don't know yet who did it. I am simply speculating just like you are with your theory that it came from within the family.

Or maybe she’s just seizing an opportunity to make it all about her, which given her track record, is totally in keeping with her character.

Maybe she saw an opportunity for even more self-promotion.

I understand her intent, but trying to convince people she wasn’t being abused by saying she would “never let [herself] be a victim,” is some serious victim-blaming BULLSHIT.

It’s really hard to deal with a barrage of calls when you’re meeting with the funeral director and mourning your loved one. He’s a famous guy who has a ton of friends, so it would be even harder for him. I actually think Twitter is okay in this case (although I think it’s super tacky when people post condolences on FB…

It’s not really self centered if you take in today’s social climate. Think about it, say someone who knows Patton very well calls him up with condolences but doesn’t tweet about condolences, what happens online? You get nosy people calling you “cold,” “mean,” “selfish” and “uncaring” for not saying anything about your…

This is what happens when you start tolerating people’s religious beliefs. We had this brand of religious nutcase on the ropes in the 1990s and early 00s, then we had to start going around respecting their ability to believe such bullshit (and attacking the militant atheists who came so close to putting them down for…

“If we take care of morality,” David Brumbaugh, a Republican Representative in Oklahoma’s House , said during deliberations, “God will take care of the economy.”

THIS. We are seeing the devastating results of low voter-turnout right here. People need to vote, not only this November, but EVERY TIME there’s an election. If we don’t vote, then the aging, paranoid, Fox News-Watching folks will continue to have their way.

Re: “Is this a choice or is this a child?” Poster in photo. Um, first thing, it's a fucking fetus, not a child. Second, it doesn't belong to YOU. Nor does the body or life of the person making the choice belong to you. So How the fuck does this affect you and why the FUCK do you care? Do pro-life people like, go…

but that “keep abortion legal” right smack fucking dab in the middle of all that. you can almost feel the tension just looking at it.

You know you’ve entered uncharted territory when Heidi Pratt looks like the sanest person in the room.

6 girls planned to beat the shit out of their classmate. This wasn’t a sad accident. This was murder.

Climate change should be terrifying us more than anything else happening on this planet right now. This is not something humanity will recover from.

Best thing I’ve read on a Gawker site in quite a while.
