Yes, and if the people involved are nobodies and neither of them complain, Twitter could care less. But if I tell Sean Hannity to fuck off, I’m going to get a suspension even though he richly deserves it. It’s not fair, but it’s their playground and they get to set the rules.

True, but it’s also because Twitter uses an idiotic system to decide who to suspend. Swear or make violent threats at a prominent account, and you’re probably going to get booted. Anything else, they’re only going to care if they get a lot of complaints.

He’s a rich white guy. Of course he thinks he’ll get around 800 more second chances. He always has.

I don’t watch Real Housewives, but I always liked Eva. Glad she’s doing well.

Ugh. She’s right that a rich, successful school probably doesn’t need more books, and also right that there are better books to give in 2017 than Dr. Seuss. (Less because of racism, more because every library already has them.) But that letter was really fucking obnoxious. You don’t respond to a gift by telling the…

Dude, come on. I think having a baby is a stupid thing for Kylie to do too, especially as she’s been dating the father for about 15 minutes. But teenagers don’t make their family planning decisions based on what happens in celebrity uteruses. If they did, Solange and Jamie-Lynne Spears would both have prompted baby…

There aren’t actually first-hand anonymous accusers in that story. There’s a guy who says his female friends told him Louis assaulted them. The guy’s introduced as “we’ll call him Jason,” implying that’s not even his real first name. The emails he exchanged with Louis are cryptic at best, and we have only his…

I have no opinion on the rumors themselves, but saying an innocent person would have sued doesn’t really make sense because it’s really hard for a celebrity to win a defamation suit in the US. You have to show that either the party making the statement knew or should have known it wasn’t true, or that they said it for…

I have a question, smart people.

So she was raped repeatedly for two years (which is AWFUL) ... and then went on TV and defended a presidential candidate almost certainly guilty of sexual assault.

I dunno, I haven’t seen the context but on the surface that strikes me as just being honest? She was raised by bohemian biracial parents who also happened to be rich and famous, and probably went to private school and all of that. Maybe it’s not the best wording, but I can see how a lot of the experiences and tropes…

Yeah, African-American only works if you want to say this makes two in a row — which I suspect both of the gentlemen involved would disagree with.

As an ally, let’s let the LGBTQ+ people have their capes on this one. Allies don’t always need awards.

This may be a rude question, but I’m curious and I figure somebody here will know. Rami Malek, who is Egyptian-American, won best actor in a drama for Mr. Robot last year. Did he count as first anything? Or is he a white guy for the purposes of these types of discussions?

I’m not sure how I’d fix it, but the underskirt to Ellie Kemper’s dress seems like it’s a clunky length. But I guess it’s a modest-ish way to show off your legs.

After watching the reaction yesterday, I think the big problem is that they named the company Bodega. It’s a fancy vending machine. We’ve had vending machines forever, and we all know the issues with them — they break, the selection isn’t great, and they’re out of what you want half the time. If you suggested that in…

I guess you got that wish!

Awww. Beautiful girl, beautiful momma. Thanks!
