Seriously though, it seems even more telling that Dunham characterized his lines as a “massive insult of white women” rather than a fairly tame insult towards her character/show (and clueless hipsters like her) specifically.

They are contractors for Twitch who are beholden to twitch’s community guidelines and those of their advertisers, and their contract can be ended at will. Quit being an insufferable child.

The fact that you’re seriously comparing the Macbook Air to the Model T is precisely the kind of absurd statement that made me write my comment in the first place. When you say it was the paragon product of an era...look, I’ll agree that it inspired a lot of the look and design ethos of the Ultrabooks, but even that…

All I want are save backups...

The difference is that you cared about her. A missing link in this unfortunate encounter under discussion, and many like it, is that the rushing/pushy/boorish/ dudes don’t care about the woman in the scenario. There needs to be more acknowledgement of the times when the pushy person doesn’t care about the push-ee and…

telling him he’s moving too fast, that she doesn’t want to hate him for feeling forced

It is nice that you no longer obsess about not appearing rude.

Your comment seems to be filled with contempt for men.

Hence “I don’t think you understand what the word “literally” means.” Confirmed.

So she literally said “Next time” and “Oh, yeah, sure.” She literally THOUGHT, but did not say aloud, “I didn’t want to be engaged in that with him.” And she never said OR thought (at least according to the article) “I don’t want to have sex with you tonight” which you gave as a direct quote.

I’m with you. I believe Grace’s story and I don’t think that she did anything wrong in the encounter. But from what I can see here, neither did Aziz. They both made assumptions about what the other wanted that were incorrect, and led to an upsetting misunderstanding. But the biggest thing Aziz did wrong wasn’t asking…

Lots of agrees. Also I admit I’m confused by Julianne’s sense of her own place in this landscape. She laments that this instance of bad reporting leaves the door “a little wider for self-righteousness,” instead of sparking an important conversation. But even if you agree with Julianne’s take in every respect (I…

Why?? Because we need to stand up for ourselves and stop putting ourselves in uncomfortable and maybe even dangerous situations just because we are afraid of hurting someone’s feelings.

Here is where I’ll probably get flamed, but there were so many aspects of her story that sounded unrealistically entitled and just, frankly, willfully unaware. Grace describes going BACK to this man who had just gone down to her, and FULLY NAKED, “...sat down on the floor next to Ansari, who sat on the couch, she…

This was a bad date. She had a horrible date with a clueless guy who thought he was being sexy and hot. She was made to feel uncomfortable, and it wasn’t right.

It’s easy not to cheat when no one else wants you.

First source that pops up isn’t definitive, but this is usually the whole point of the counter suit. If it drags out costs on both sides will continue to increase and things will only get worse for the families.

Schooled? ha. You basically have said that Hillary’s best thing is that she will play defense against the GOP...

The entirety of my play through of Fire Emblem:

Yes, but they have to create the copy. Code up a copy of Batman Arkham Knight yourself and I concede that you can play it without paying for it.
