Remember: if you stand with the GOP, you stand with a party that stands with pedophiles. That suborns perjury to get their man in place. That calls themselves ‘the party of law and order’ whilst subverting justice.

This is how to be an ally. Recognizing one’s privilege, and not feeling guilty and defensive about , but using it to help bring some other people’s truths to the light, and calling out the ignorance at the same time.

“Any of the dozens of other Guided By Voices albums that have been released over the past 30 years days or so.” Fixed it for you.

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THIS THING. What is it and how the fuck are you supposed to use it?

So don’t judge and assume that your experience is the only truthful one. Enjoy the lessons the shows teach you without getting hung up on details. It really was like that. Enjoy the ride into a historical reality you have not lived. It’s actually an interesting ride.

In case QueenVictoriasCorsetKatana doesn’t answer, my suggestion is to read some of the comments on Rich’s other pieces, like this one, to see remarks by other gay men about Rich’s take on the culture. Suffice to say, many don’t agree.

I think you’re right. They’re really exploring this space with this Perry-bashing. They gotta have it.

“and this inane fight against a pop star who demands that the world bends to her will”

You’re missing nothing. I’m actually finding it...depressing that Jezebel is still running with this narrative after most other websites, including some not so female friendly ones, have cleared it up.

Well that’s because she’s the famous person involved.

Not a Katy Perry fan, but she seems to be being villainized for something that is exclusively the fault of the archdiocese (unless I’m missing something). Perry is just trying to buy a property that was apparently on sale, the dispute of who owns the property is really not on her.

Yes, when Katy Perry pays for something she rightfully purchased from the actual owners, she should receive it.

Let’s be clear about some stuff with this case.

My friend and I were photographed by Bill Cunningham at the Whitney Biennial in the early aughts.

One of my favorite surprises ever: I was taking a photo of my friend outside our office a couple years ago and when I looked at it, I saw someone was in the background taking a picture of his own. I didn’t realize until later when he walked past us that it was Bill Cunningham (pic here, cropped and blurred in case my

I know, I have a chrome extension for tracking that information, because I was curious what they were trying to figure out, and frankly, it all didn’t matter. They tried to guess my personality, but with such a large swath, it was near worthless data. For a while Trump was the most talked about thing/looked at thing

exactly. i don’t even open facebook. i have an account, i have the app, i clear notifications on occasion. but i don’t volunteer a bunch of personal information that isn’t already readily available. i’m not swayed by other people’s stupid posts. i’m not outraged. i just don’t care.

Your data is for sale to whoever is willing to pay so they can manipulate you with microtargeted campaigns.

I just don’t get it. Maybe its because of my age (35)...I was taught growing up to not just freely give out my information, so I’m pretty “so what” about Facebook, because anything I’ve put on Facebook, I don’t care about people knowing in the first place. The people on my friends list, 95% of them are people I know

Sorry if this hurts your feelings, but we’ve been down this path plenty of times before. Every little data fuckup Facebook makes triggers a huge wave of “should you delete Facebook / here’s how to delete Facebook / let’s all delete Facebook” commentary. And that’s great and all, and we all talk about it for a month,
