A pizza guy giving out your private info is threatening. That guy is giving out your number and he has your address. It's disingenuous to pretend like that's just a mild annoyance.

Seriously. I don't care in the least about Izzy in particular, I just don't find stuff like this funny no matter who it happens to. And her status as whipping girl of the moment — and the entire fact Jez HAS whipping girls of the moment — makes me cranky and sarcastic.

Yeah, I guess because we don't like her, a group of strange men now having access to her personal contact information is supposed to be funny?

You went into a bathroom that didn't match your biological sex and the alarm didn't sound and you weren't immediately covered in spiders?

Yeah because that little stick figure in a dress instead of pants is what is really keeping the sexual predators at bay. It's not legitimate rape unless the bathroom signs don't match!

I can only speak for myself but I think the general consensus would agree. It is not your stance or the fact you would like to be vocal about something you believe very strongly in. Go for it dude! But, I personally am appalled that you can compare modern animal production for consumption to things like basic human…

The author was speaking more broadly to vegans who don't keep their opinions to themselves and "live and let live," which presumably includes advocacy you might support (although it's unclear what the "shitload of work being done on this front" refers to).

No, pissandry.

"I've used the men's restroom a few times...I regret nothing."

Three things:

Or if my aunt-in-law is out with her severely disabled teenage son and she has to pee, she gets to leave him in the hallway?

I guess if a father has to change his daughter's/mother has to change her son's diaper, someone is going to jail.

The literal entire point of the article is that both sides have people who are so myopic and rage-filled that the argument is well lost. And you, my dear, are not helping your side. Like at all. Not a wee bit. Nada.

Yeah—being a vegan is not classist. Pushing veganism onto people even when they've explained why they couldn't feasibly go vegan if they wanted to, OTOH, can be classist, ableist, etc. But so can pushing any damn thing onto people. (No, I'm not doing CrossFit, damn you, FB friend. I have no money, for one thing, and…

as an apostate vegetarian that never broached the subject when I wasn't eating meat I agree that when it does come up (as it just does sometimes) a few meat eaters always tended to be defensive and try and start shit.

But time is also money, right? So if you are buying dried bulk rice and beans, which would be the cheapest possible option. You also need the time to cook those things.

You know, there's a really ugly history of historically oppressed groups being dehumanized as animals. Black people were apes and monkeys. Jews were rats. Women are bitches. So comparing "animal rights" to human civil rights is a really shitty thing to do.

Did you just compare me, a black man, to a fucking animal? You son of a bitch! Now I'm going to eat a damn brisket sandwhich, FUCK YOUR ENVIRONMENT!!
