Every person I know like this has parents who are richer than God. Who has time for a job when there are organic co-ops that need haunting?

Oh look the queens of oblivious-white-girl racism-is-the-joke-get-it comedy said some oblivious shit.
Overall it was a great op-ed, however I am flabbergasted as to why she’s saying this film is opening up discussions about rape, when that is not the case. It is because Nate Parker (allegedly) raped someone. She acknowledged the allegations but then is sort of handing this to him like, “Look how great it is that he…
White people terrorized black people to the extent that bears, snakes, swamps were nothing compared to the terror of white hate
1660-70; < French mar (r) on, apparently < American Spanish cimarrón wild (see cimarron ); first used in reference to domestic animals that escaped into the woods, later to fugitive slaves
Ow, that dress Gina is wearing in the header photo is giving my boobs sympathy pains.
aw, buddy. (((HUGS)))
yes. and i literally cry because i don’t look like them.
The thing (for me) that’s so seductive about this whole cult isn’t necessarily the idea of having three hours a day to work out (though obviously that’s amazing) but rather the fact that working out for them is so, sort of, passive? Like they have assistants and a trainer and a cash flow that just ....make it happen…
I’m saying it’s more than basic decency. And it’s not a low bar to call a teenager sitting down at that table an out of the ordinary kind act — applauding him for saying “hey, what’s up” would be.
I don’t think this necessarily offers hope for humanity, but I wouldn’t say it’s just basic decency for a guy who went to the school expecting to be fawned over by excited kids to instead sit down with a lonely, awkward boy who probably didn’t even know who he was.
I’m sure I’m not going to be the only person to point this out, but there is a VERY famous “looking at art” montage in “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” - a one-off example, but I can think of a few others with white characters just off the top of my head (Thomas Crown Affair, several James Bond movies). It’s not a…
they might be light-headed from all the not-eating they do. every time kkw snapchats her tiny meals i feel bad :(
The mean, petty side of my braind wants to say, honestly, how can you not figure out these are ads? They’re all posed the same in every photo. It’s about as obvious than those terrible mascara ads where all the models have like three layers of false lashes on.
This is why trigger warnings end up getting a bad rap. There are valid reasons, abuse survivors, veterans, etc should at least get the heads up when it’s not obvious from the work what’s going to be coming, but those using it to be lazy is just unacceptable. “Weird” is why you go to college, if you’re just planning on…
I have had this happen to me as well. I can’t say that this is always how it works but it was clear to me that the student who pulled this on me just simply didn’t want to have to deal with the film I was showing. I say this because the week before I showed a film where she was amongst the students who complained that…
As a college professor I can only speak from my experience and here it is: trigger warnings are used by students mainly as a way of getting out of work or for not having to read literature that they don’t want to. In legit cases (such as a veteran fresh from Afghanistan who didn’t want to watch a segment of Band of…
Go on.
