I was fortunate enough not to see it. 

One of my friends was from a super Christian, super conservative family, and behaved as such. Fast forward to now and she’s married to a black man and has fraternal twins. We reconnected and ended up getting shit faced at a bar, and I will never forget how she talked about her husband, how she said everything she had

See, I had no problem praising her while she was coming out, transitioning, and living publicly as Caitlyn. Openly praising Jenner was not only the right thing to do for her, but the right thing to do for the trans community at large. Public support is great for showing closeted LGBT+ folks that the world is becoming

I’m apprehensive to see what happens to her attitude about Trump, conservatives, and the alt-right as her son gets older.

Caitlyn Jenner can go fuck herself.

I totally agree with you! That’s why I have a problem with people who say, “I never liked her, because she was so weird and crazy.” Because it creates this false pretence that 1) she was the only twenty-five year old to do weird shit, and 2) the weird shit she did when she was twenty-five is wholly indicative of her

I’m sure there’s a fair amount of all of the comments we’ve seen, but the comments we disagree with or find surprising stick out more because of our internal bias and/or narrative.

Assuming that you’re talking about the comments on Jezebel. I don’t want to link to specific comments and threads, because I don’t want to start any drama between people.

I also like “insidious”.

Same. I’m so sick of this story. Not just because of how it must be affecting those kids, but because the comments have been pretty misogynistic, even on Jezebel. Brad is apparently some clueless fuck boy, hurting Jennifer Aniston and being driven to misery and substance abuse. All because of Angelina. She’s crazy and

Yes!! The “you are not a real ____” is probably one of my biggest pet peeves. It’s so fucking condescending.

Yep. I hate the “You’re not a real [model/woman/feminist/insert noun here]” sentiment. Look, she’s a model. Her job title is ‘model’. She gets paid to work as a model. She’s a model, whether or not people think she’s a good one. Full stop.

I feel you, friend. And I knew you felt me. Sorry if I offended. <3

Good.

She must have read Fahrenheit 451 wrong. 

It’s assholes like this guy that destroy any chance of reasonable discourse about hunting, and it’s potential benefits and drawbacks.

I’m obsessed with sociology and culture, so I find this fascinating. Thank you for the insight!

I have always really liked Lady Gaga, even if I haven’t always liked her music. Two main reasons:

May I ask why?

I think I’ve heard of that doc. I’ll put it on my watch list. John Oliver did an awesome segment on sugar a couple of years ago, and there was a recent study published in JAMA that is damning to the sugar industry. There’s another doc called FED UP that I’ve been meaning to watch. I’ve seen no evidence to doubt its
