I am extremely allergic to animals with fur, and I have had more than my fair share of assaults by dogs and their owners. Yes... I am angry. I am tired of feeling like *I'm* the bad guy for asking people to not let their animal jump all over me. I am tired of people dismissing my immediate swelling, hives and…

See, I think this article kind of touches on what bothers me about this "trend", but from a slightly different angle. It is sort of like these people have the luxury of getting rid of their stuff because deep down they know that if they ever truly need a thing they got rid of, they can jut buy it again. Or they can…
I mean, the hashtag is literally #YesAllWomen, so clearly, not being essentialist went out the window a long time ago...
Yeah, I totally agree with you. We've been socialized to view men as potentially threatening, and women as harmless.
See, I knew I wasn't crazy for being scared of that one minority group! It only takes one, right?
How about _____ minority group?
Exactly why is that it becomes the responsibility of all other men?
If all it takes is one, why isn't everyone terrified of women?
Ehh... I'm really not convinced of much of the dialogue around this one at all, frankly. It's not that I don't think that there's normalized masculine violence (there is), but police also ignored the many many other violent shooters who didn't have MRA-laced bullshit added into the mix. Police tend to ignore most of…
Ari, I actually made that comment to bait you into bragging about your life.
I agree that not all journalists are awful and some do a great, great service which I am very grateful for (thank your husband for me), but when my dad was killed under incredibly suspicious circumstances we had "journalists" hounding my family 24/7. My mom was a grieving 25 year old widow with two small children and…
People that can't even deserve harsh public shaming.
Ok I gotta jump in here because there is little of what goes on in the modern media counts as ethical, usually BECAUSE of "journalism majors". I mean, what the fuck, it's not even a proper course of study. Study sociology, or philosophy or physics, but journalism is something you DO, not something you STUDY. What I…
1. There are people that went to J-school writing these articles, stop trying to distance the profession from the absolute bullshit they sell the public daily.
Journalists are the scum of the Earth.
That was clever of them to look at that market and provide a product for it no one else had thought of.
Oh no, I was just pointing out how pretentious OP sounded despite the fact that he or she picked the academic equivalent to mindless masturbation.
Having a degree in English is almost as laughable.
