As someone who is concerned about the morality and environmental effects of large scale animal farms and adjusts their diet accordingly, and as someone who has lived the majority of her life in the heartland of those farms and thus is subjected to so, so, SO many sanctimonious FB rants from dairy farmers about the…
“A smart, sweet, quiet boy,” is how the family of Dimitrios Pagourtzis described him shortly after the 17-year-old…
All you brits know the royal family, right? You pop round Kensington Palace for tea and crumpets before stopping for pudding at Mary Berry’s place?
Is Jez doing a liveblog for this bloody thing?
FWIW I agree with you. Like LET US HAVE THIS ONE SPACE where I don’t have to pretend it’s cute or clever. I’m not offended and I think Masshole James is generally A Good Poster but yeah. I’m just tired.
It is irritating to see dick jokes in the comments section of Jez. I don’t even know why it irritates me so much, but it really does. Like this isn’t Reddit, bro. Just thinking out loud - which I figured would be fair since I had to read your dick joke.
“That’s exactly why the princess fantasy is far from frivolous for women of color, so many of whom grew up in societies that told them they weren’t beautiful or wanted—that the happily ever after ending was not for them.”
I am also royalty thanks to divine power granted to me by God. I have no real-world power or wealth, but since kingship is historically linked to some sort of God-given right, I claim that he spoke to me and granted me lordship of my currently occupied living area. That’s right, I’m doxing myself as the King of…
Doctors’ offices should be like gas stations - one giant red NOPE button on the wall, if anybody feels uncomfortable and hits it everything stops for a safety check and the doctors get sprayed with toxic foam.
“The shitters are getting bolder” is a phrase I never thought would pass through my mind, yet here we are.
You are a sad deranged little man.
You’re probably not as mentally healthy as you should be.
But if you focus less on the mother and more on the child, what difference does it make? Are we so intent on punishing people to the fullest that we’ll sacrifice a baby’s well being, knowing that the detrimental effects of premature separation are long-lasting? Denying infants the ability to stay with their mothers…
And I want to make clear that I think it’s possible to have sympathy for Green as an incarcerated mother, while not having sympathy for her role in her crime. The same goes for all incarcerated mothers. It doesn’t have to be all or nothing.
It’s extremely frustrating to see how much you downplay/diminish Green’s crime here, especially because it’s totally unnecessary. This article is incredibly compelling and seems well researched. But seeing her crime described as Green unwittingly being a part of a murder for “giving him a ride,” it does a real…
Its designed to be cruel and insane. Not only is prison designed to replace slavery, it’s also designed to be severe punishment. Other nations that use their prison systems as punishment often have far shorter prison times - although they are also far more destructive, or they’re a dictatorship that often kills its…
That is insane. Do they not know that regular physical contact is considered to be essential for an individual’s mental health? I mean the whole situation seems cruel and insane, but that is just the crowning turd on the shit pile.
Although I’m sure the story you tell is real (unfortunately, fact is often stranger and more racist than fiction), it’s kind of crazy how the dogs in your story serve as a metaphor for how black people and POC interact with white people in general. I add the POC in this sentence not to dilute the black experience but…
I had forgotten about the first time.
