It’s an inflammatory auto-immune disease that hits not just the joints but one’s organs. It can be quite fatal if you get uncontrollable inflammation in the heart, lungs, brain, or other vital organ. You can also get a whole host of secondary problems, plus you have to take some fairly harsh meds. RA used to kill…

If there is a woman alive who has not had this experience, I’d like to meet her, because she is a rare, rare creature. I’m so grateful to you for sharing your story and elaborating on the complexity of consent. So many people want to make it a black-and-white, yes-or-no issue, and the more people who stand up and say…

It’s so weird. He probably could have disengaged more so than he did, but again any issues this lady has with what he did or didn’t do should be addressed to the actual people he is employed with. She’s leading an unnecessary angry mob to the wrong village.

Her own version of the events is poking holes in the story she posted on Tumblr. She and a friend were in a fight with a couple, she maced them, and then got indignant when the bar they happened to be in front of wanted nothing to do with their noise? It seems like she has a massive chip on her shoulder, what with…

Does it fucking matter if your viewpoint has all the information in this case?

People who like red velvet cake are the same people who like ranch dressing.

I think there's a level of douchebaggery and beyond-beyond-reasonable-doubt where beatings should be in play as legal punishment. Because this person needs beatings.

"dieing to get my pussy eatin up!!"

They completely re-worded that statement (again, without noting that they'd done so). "The man told the Post" is very different than "The Post determined... that they'd never met." Do you see? It's attributed to someone instead of floating in the air as an omniscient fact.

color me incredibly unsurprised that the Greek system thinks it's the REAL victimized party

My opinion is that something horrible happened to Jackie. I don't know if it was a three-hour gang rape by seven guys, as she told RS, or being forced into oral sex by a smaller number, as she originally told her friends. But she's consistently said she was raped by multiple people, she was clearly traumatized, and…

To clarify, Mike Tyson met with Rob Ford yesterday and declared him the "greatest mayor in Toronto's history."

I kind of agree with tbonius - I don't really see the "edgy" in espousing mainstream liberal values. It's certainly better than being a bigot, but the whole "being for equality and only 'punching up' is the *real* edginess" is quite a stretch. It feels like the whole "what's really cool is staying in school and saying…

Oh my god...I'm getting really sick of this.

MY DUDE, YOU WERE CAUGHT IN THE WILD WEARING A TANK TOP AND BLAZER. PLEASE SIT YOUR ASS DOWN.

for what it's worth, i think you totally have a valid point. pinkham was being unnecessarily dickish. and it's totally understandable to not get exactly what fish en papillote is. i didn't realize the picture was of that dish until i looked at it a second time. and even if i did understand what the description was…

In my second post, I acknowledged that I was wrong and I thanked Pinkham for the clarification. All I said was I "wish you hadn't been so condescending." Does that seriously convey incomprehensible anger? No. It doesn't. Frankly, I cannot understand why randos from the peanut gallery (such as you) felt the need…

Ah, I see now. It is pictured at the top of this article. Thanks for explaining that, but I wish you hadn't been so condescending in your reply to me.
