If you are going to now argue that forgiveness is not a virtue, please just switch to Fox News now. You’ve forsaken all your liberal principles in the service of satisfying your blood rage against officers who maliciously murder black people - of which Guyger is almost certainly not. She’s a woman who has to pay for…

He doesn’t have to turn the other cheek. He chose to. Why are we taking away agency from his brother? He asked for a hug. He gave forgiveness freely. That’s his business.

Forgiveness isn’t for the community. Forgiveness is for the individual. If this helps his brother personally move on and feel a sense of closure and peace, it’s not our business to question it. Being able to move forward in your life without anger can be a really powerful and healing thing. Just let this man be and…

I love this. I read that they had hugged, saw the hug itself, read why they hugged, and knew immediately that there would be a Root article bemoaning the fact that someone in a tough, racially charged situation had taken the higher ground and chosen to embrace mercy. Took about a day longer than I thought it would to…

Stick my dick in Stacey Dash? Not me fam. Conservatism is an STD. Next thing you know I wake up and my dick is shriveled and white and wearing a tiny MAGA hat. Not me.

To me if her tears are genuine or not doesn’t matter. She can be genuinely remorseful and feel guilty as fuck that doesnt change whether she is guilty in the eyes of the law. She shot a man in his own home. 

Yes! Hard agree. And thanks, I’m feeling better now that I’m aware of the problem. The most problematic part is that I have been using cbd/thc via different ways routes for years to manage migraines, and had no idea vaping even related to my issues. no doctor I saw ever asked or thought to make the connection, since…

What you’re saying is exactly the entire point of my comment; that we SHOULD be reacting like that to things like cigarettes. Because we have under-reacted in the past (and now), the reasonable reactions seem overboard to us instead of appropriate.  

I know, right?  When E. coli in spinach makes a lot of people sick, it’s usual to pull it from the shelves for a while and recall whole batches.  And you don’t see a bunch of bloggers going, “Stop the spinach panic! I have been eating spinach for six years and I’m fine.”

That goes both ways - just cause it’s been better for you doesn’t make it better for all.  Good luck with your future lung cancer or pulmonary disease either way!

Amazing that you don't see the irony in your comment.

Tell that to my friend’s fiancee and his family....he is sitting in the hospital right this very second with a lung infection that won’t go away and is resisting all forms of antibiotic. He didn’t vape any blackmarket THC. He has been vaping, normally and legally for about 2 years.

We are reading it very differently. We are also reading LGBT history differently if you think that “sit quietly and hope for the best” is something other than hiding. And the desire to hide is understandable when people are, in fact, out to get you.

Well the single is out so there wasn’t any point anymore. 

Did Kaitlynn refuse to wear an “I Love M.C.” tank top to the Hamptons?

Nobody saw this coming. Nobody.  /sarcasm

Huh, I thought for sure they would drag this out over a few more months. I guess the whole “Hey everyone, I’m totes over Liam, and btw, buy my new single” ploy didn’t go as planned.

so those characters never talked about social media, which I think would be really interesting and just also sexual politics and the #MeToo movement and Time’s Up has really steered conversations about sexual politics

LET IT GO. LET THIS SHOW GO. LET IT EXIST AS IS.

Jesus, SJP, let if fucking die.
