He looks like Kiff on Futurama.

The thing about that is, the feelings of a "victim" only mean so much. They certainly matter, don't get me wrong, but they are not the end all be all. For example, if you're kidnapped and develop Stolkholm Syndrome and so you do not think your kidnapper did anything to victimize you, the person that took you still

It's a weird situation to be sure but this is my take: Whether someone feels like calling themselves a victim is up to the person acted against however, perpetrators don't get to decide if they're perpetrators. Let's say someone randomly walked up to me and, without my consent, punched me in the face. I can say that I

Spotify has paid out over a billion dollars in royalties to date. That is not miniscule. If an artist gets a bad payout, that would be due to their labels. Either way, the labels are getting paid so they aren't going to complain.

My grams too. Never left the house without a nice outfit, a splash or perfume, and her hair done. Meanwhile, I'll stay home to avoid having to put on a pair of pants.

Oh, please. Like everyone doesn't have their "don't rape me" face down pat? Cause obviously, looking like I don't want to be raped will cause a would-be rapist to reconsider.

Which means her label is the one ripping her off, not Spotify.

Why are you surprised that labels haven't moved away from Spotify? Spotify pays 70% of their revenue back to the labels. Let's be real here, the alternative to Spotify is radio or piracy, not purchasing a full album. Labels make money off only one of those three.

If you love a band, pay to see a show cause they aren't gonna see crap from album sales.

Spotify pays 70% of their revenue to the artists' label so if artist aren't paid what they feel they are owed it's their label's fault not Spotify.

But... if all I want is to be called pretty why would it matter if the catcaller is ugly or not? Shouldn't I just be happy about being called the one thing I apparently love the most? He's very bad at words-ings.

"Carry a gun"? Like, so I can shoot a catcaller? That seems... overly harsh. Also, not catcalling men isn't abuse, it's at best negligence.

Huh. If she's accurate that $362 was 80% of what she had in her account then she had $452.50 in her account. She couldn't afford the non-surge fare. She couldn't afford a fare of three bucks. She didn't have enough to chip in for gas money if someone gave her a lift.

Spending that sort of money on a few bits of clothes will almost definitely remove you from my would bang list.

Oh totally. I mean, my boyfriend and I are into BDSM and I can't tell you how many of his exes come around saying he is violent and/or likes to sexually assault women. It must be up in the absolutely nevers.

That's not what evolution is. Evolution is simply the change that occurs over time due to heredity. There isn't an overaching goal. The end goal is not "perfection", just good enough to breed.

You'd think people so worried about Ebola would have some idea how you can actually contract it. Quick tip: if you're at a restaurant and someone starts vomitting blood or having explosive diarrhea, don't touch it.

If you think that sitting next to someone that might have traveled to Liberia will cause you to the contract Ebola, you are an "overly hyped Ebola nut".

I'm not arguing they don't. However, by registering a brand, the mark holder still gets to bring up such matters in court. Obviously, not all mark holder's prevail in court but the protection is the ability to argue your case in court, even in the case of descriptive trademarks. My only point is that this guy was able

You're the one asking "dumb feminists" to fact check readily available sources for you.
