i assumed it wasnt necessary to say that her bf should stop beating her up. he should stop putting his hands on anyone. i guess i shouldnt assume people would understand i felt that way, but i do. i was commenting on my reaction to this article, which as a woman in recovery from drug addiction, is to feel completely…

For shame. This is the most victim blamey piece of nonsense I’ve seen.

god that quote is depressing. i’m nodding along and then get to the point about saying sorry and YIKES.

I just feel bad for the frog. I know, they’re prey animals, everything eats them. But does he have to torture them?

“Google Camp” sounds like a weird revenge of the nerds type thing where all the kids who were made fun of at “real” camp get together and laugh about how now they are all billionaires and Tommy who made them eat mud is still living in his moms basement.

No no. Too intimate.

Her policies are 99.9% identical to Obama’s (not that he’s perfect), and I’m ok with that. She’s the lesser of two evils and you only get to choose between two evils.

asking allies to do better isn’t asking too much and, if it is, y’all weren’t much of an ally to begin with. nothing she said was, like, an attack on allies at all :/

It can be true that it is a better time to be trans and also still lonely and scary. As of 2013, trans women were more likely to experience domestic abuse, for example, and murders classified as hate murders were overwhelmingly of trans women of color (over 70%) They’re also more likely to experience police violence…

it’s definitely re: hari nef’s tweets. and, ironically, it’s exactly the type of cis bullshit hari was speaking out against.

Trans people are literally murdered at alarming rates and need to bring their birth certificates to the bathroom. It isn’t self-victimization if you are actually being victimized and are in real danger every day.

Why bring gays and lesbians into it and use same-sex marriage as your reference point? Those tweets don’t even mention gays, lesbians, or same-sex relationships, let alone portray gays and lesbians as “victims”. Being transgender is a separate thing from being gay or lesbian.

Dada is one of the most brilliant art movements out there. Saint West must already be hella independent in thought because there’s no way he got that taste for delightfully tongue-in-cheek surrealism from his parents.

Ah, but what if I were a white woman? I’d be crucified! CRUCIFIED.

So people can’t apologize when they make a mistake? That sucks. Even Swift accepted his apology after a time, but other people can’t. I’m a Kanye music fan, and the media pretty much made him into the biggest asshole of the century, and still is. No one thinks what he did was okay, including him. Meanwhile Charlie…

You are on a roll.

No. I still think Chris Brown should be banished to Butthole Island, someone who actually punched and bit a woman in the face. But Kanye didn’t hit Amber Rose or Taylor Swift. He hurt her feelings and made an ass of himself.

That is patently, quantifiably false. I didn’t even factor in endorsements and treatment by the press in the disparity gap you’re strategically encapable of observing. But I could.

Not hateful. Hate implies a level of intent Kanye didn’t have. He didn’t know her, he just thought his friend was being jacked. He actually cares VERY deeply for a lot of people. You hear that in the video when he’s talking to Taylor, he says repeatedly. “Friendship is more important than a punchline” and “I want to…

There is no tsunami (unless you’re counting the waves of fawning fans and media profiles that helped Ms. Swift top entertainment earners last year to the tune of $170+ million), there is no mob behavior (unless you’re talking about ticket sales—or do those not count?), there is no scapegoating (unless you’re counting…
