I’ve never been comfortable with the blowback influencers like Kendal Jenner and Bella Hadid have experienced for the Fyre Festival debacle. Aren’t they victims in all that, too? Why should it fall on them to inspect the product they were contracted to sell? That’s not their department. They were paid to promote; they…

Counterpoint: I do want to be touched by Keanu Reeves.

Can we change the title of this article to “Karine Jean-Pierre Won’t Hesitate to Handle You” or “Karine Jean-Pierre is Fearless”? I feel like we’ve buried the lede.

I will say this loudly: THIS PIECE OF SHIT IS NOT THE ORIGIN STORY OF ELLEN DEGENERES IDENTIFYING AS A LESBIAN.

As a quilter and sewer I literally assumed this was going to be drama of someone using someone else’s fabric scissors on non fabric and I want you to know that in my head I thought war was FULLY justified just based on that.

Tynes, whose LinkedIn says she is a “veteran communications expert” and “social media strategist,” has since deleted the tweet, set her account to private, and said she is “truly sorry.”

To an extent yes, to an extent no.

I call Shenanigans on this! Door Dash has operations going pretty much 24/7 across the entire USA & Canada including Hawaii Not to mention they are currently in operational tests in Australia. If they don’t already have a operational 24/7 war room to deal with their fly by night contractors (Dasher dashes right into a…

No. They should have customer service reps available during their peak business hours, which I assume based on their entire business model (food delivery) extend far past 5pm. If there are enough high visibility or urgent topics that require cross-team assistance, they should plan shifts and coverage accordingly.

No. Saying this shit makes men feel powerful because they know it makes women feel vulnerable.

It’s not a compliment, it’s a power move. Just like cat calling and other kinds of harassment.

Guys don’t think about it. Literally. Ninety percent of guys being pissed off at women on the internet is because they don’t know why women are afraid.

Wrote this years ago about an incident at a skeptic con: http://politecompany.blogspot.com/2012/10/on-internet-you-can-be-anything.html

He wasn’t expecting any response from her because he knows the dummy number goes inactive as soon as he closes out the delivery. He did it because he could and it gave him a momentary feeling of power.  

Control and the power to freak someone out.

“That’s Why Darkies Were Born, Someone had to pick the cotton,/ Someone had to pick the corn,/ Someone had to slave and be able to sing,/ That’s why darkies were born.”

As much as I love queer-centric businesses and creating safer travel situations, when everything on the website is centred around cis gay men I am just not encouraged to use the service. Misterb&b leveraging the phrase “LGBTQ” and only addressing gay travellers in their copy and photos leaves the rest of the community…

It sounds like maybe you’ve never been on a vacation ruined by staying in or around unsafe spaces. It’s one of the biggest anxieties LGBTQ travelers face when visiting places we’ve never been. Are we going to be safe? Are there places for us to go where we can relax and be ourselves? Will I get harassed walking down…

I think you are putting a lot of judgement on this and not seeing the ways the show is showing her bad decisions.

While watching this scene I was terrified, absolutely terrified she would jump up and say “I’m keeping the baby!” When I had my abortion, I didn’t have a support friend, nor was I in such a nice clinic. I was in the Bronx at a stand alone hellhole because I couldn’t get an appointment with Planned Parenthood prior to…

My pitch for the spinoff: Helena and Art run a food truck, specializing in Ukranian-soul food fusion. They solve a different mystery every week in some Toronto neighborhood, with Art now a PI and Helena as his muscle
