Good to know! I haven’t wanted to be a spammer/nuisance (ironically my responsible commenter instincts kicking in), but being patient hasn’t seemed to be working. I comment on a lot of blogs, and I’ve never seen a commenting system so antithetical to user participation!

Thanks so much! I will!

Thanks for advocating for us poor greys! I’ve also been commenting here since long before the Kinja days, and it’s so frustrating not being able to participate in discussions the way I used to. I am consistently making meaningful, worthwhile contributions that are never disrespectful or abusive. How do I get ungreyed?

Hi, Jez mods. Can you help me out? I have been commenting responsibly across Gizmodo media sites, and Gawker media sites (mostly Jez), for over a decade, well before Kinja came along, and used to be a regular commenter in good standing. I understand the need to screen comments, as there is sometimes vile stuff…

Please find me an example of white people calling the police on other white people for doing things like napping in the common room of their college dorm, or doing yard work, or sitting at a Starbucks without ordering anything.

Hi, AV Club. Can you help me out? I have been commenting responsibly across Gizmodo media sites, and Gawker media sites, for over a decade, well before Kinja came along. I understand the need to screen comments, as there is sometimes vile stuff posted that I certainly don’t want to see. But I have never been abusive…

Do we need to talk about the various “white woman calls police....” things happening?

Watched the PBS miniseries adaptation of The Woman in White. I REALLY enjoyed it, but found the last two episodes (the conclusion) a bit weaker. Probably because the first three episodes do an amazing job of building this sense of dread and tension, like the spider closing in on the flies, and the last two episodes…

Damn, soup is dangerous! Now we just need to convince the military to start dropping chicken noodle on the war-torn middle east, instead of bombs!

I can’t wait to hear Fox News explain how the migrant caravan was the real perpetrator.

I find it truly shocking the way the right-wing utterly controls the discourse in America. They whip everyone up into a frenzy of “PC run amok” and make it seem like punishable religious discrimination if you even so much as acknowledge the existence of LGBTQ people or birth control options besides abstinence in the…

According to Lt. Misty English, “It sounds like there was probably alcohol involved and just a bunch of stupid decisions.”

Tall Girl, a John Hughesian story of a 16-year old’s struggles with her height.

If only "Stand Your Ground" laws applied to black people.

In one episode, there’s simultaneously an orgy and a woman calling people sluts. Either these people embrace their libertine sides, or they don’t.

Yikes. If people see “unwillingness to dehumanize those I don’t like” as characterizing a Nazi, no wonder there are REAL Nazis running rampant, and getting TV appearances and speaking gigs like purveyors of genuine discourse, while planning, supporting, and/or committing acts of violence. Everyone is too busy pulling…

Everyone knows, the only way to stop people from shooting other people, is for more people to carry guns so they can be ready to shoot other people the instant they suspect the other person might be about to shoot someone.

I would really hope they went for The Haunting of Some Other Thing, because not only did the ending resolve the Crain family’s stories, it also kind of resolved the house. It explained the house’s whole deal, introduced us personally to the Hill family (presumably the house’s original spooks) and diffused the horror…

It’s the second time a child mentions the game room (or, as Nell calls it when she finds her tea set, “the toy room”) to Mrs. Dudley, who knows every corner of Hill House, and the second time Mrs. Dudley has looked confused. There is no game room.

then to perpetuate the lie long enough for her to possibly run out the clock on her own fertility.
