Yeah, I mean, the story was epic because you never knew what was going to happen next and she told it well but I came away from it feeling like I truly have no fucking clue how strippers survive. The ‘twist ending’ with the arrest of a sex-trafficker was maybe the most horrific revelation of the whole encounter. At…

I’ve actually found that my kinja ads are reflective of my search engine history. Been shopping for a new countertop, beauty tips or fashion advice lately? Because I think these are targeted at you specifically. Clearly these ad companies have some really top-tier talent choosing their thumbnails.

I dunno, I never watched the show but I think the joke has been taken out of context: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/style-blo…

he’s the kid running for class president who promises school will start an hour later, every learning disability will be accommodated and text books will be free for life. All great things that should absolutely be instated but then he gets elected and finds out there’s pretty strict limit to what he’s capable of…

ah, that theory actually makes the most sense. it’s always a surprise to me, the amount of effort trolls will go to for the lulz.

can someone can get Michael Shannon to read Zola’s story like he read the sorority letter?? because I would pay for that.

It’s not based on ZERO facts - we have actual proof that these women get death threats all the time, so there’s a precedent.

Literally reread this book last night so yeah, I am pretty terrified right now. We’re always just one 1970’s Iranian revolution away.

<she read the comment casually, unprepared for the subtlety. as the punchline kicks in, she actually does a spit take and chokes a little while laughing. into the ether-void, she whispers 'i love you cleisthenes' and goes back to watching game of thrones>

We actually agree 100% on this - I don’t think Bernie is a bad politician, I think he’s a GREAT politician, just not a presidential one. I love the idea of Warren & Sanders leading Clinton’s cabinet and I truly hope that happens. That would be the start of an effective, progressive and exciting political era. Can you…

yo - this is a super encouraging thing to read. I really admire your self-awareness and empathy.

But did they really though? Do you really think these women who are advocating for an end to online harassment and sexism in games, who are constantly threatened with rape, murder and then some more rape...this group of women decided to BOMB a gathering of lame dudes who got together to complain about them?

seriously. we have the technology to do THIS...we can be super good at this whole safety thing when we want to be.

Well, you can’t be a paint-by-numbers kind of faithcrafter. No no, my friend. You must scrapbook by the courage of your convictions, knit with pure intentions and glitterglue for Jesus.

I don’t want to freak you out but I heard a rumor that reality TV star Donald Trump is a front runner for the GOP nomination. Do you have the map back to the real world?

oh gross gross grossssssss. There should be a diagnosable disease for anyone this horrendous; the primary symptom being holding an artifact of great cultural significance (to someone else) and thinking “Oooo, I’ll bet MY God hid one of his special notes in here! Maybe there’s something written about ME!”

DarthPumpkin hit a lot of good points but also we don’t ALL love Bernie, it’s just a very vocal group of folks who support him.

This one really got me in a loop. So the writer feels that women who don’t get dinner on the table are guilty of something, just not something they should be yelled at for. Is that what’s going on here? I mean, I know human lives are being lost all over the place but I’m just a little worried that this person feels…

Bab’s legend is just an unstoppable freight train of batshit. With every anecdote I hear about her behavior, I tell myself I should dislike her because she’s arguably the most egotistical, narcissistic and selfish woman who ever walked the earth....but then I start humming something from Funny Girl and I fall in love…

haha, well you have a great point there. But I think it’s helped the overall show that it started with such an eye-rollingly cliché cast of machismo and milquetoast. For instance, it’s Carol’s unwatchable weakness in the first couple seasons makes her current brutality so freaking awesome, right? All those stereotypes…
