My friend uses that as an excuse - I’ve been leaving messages and she says she’ll call me back. Likely story.

Yes, please - We are in Minneapolis - let’s take her to First Ave after to snap pictures with disposable cameras.

My 14 year old sister has nothing on her walls, just a painting or two my mom hung up to break up the space. I never thought it was weird until just this minute. I assumed she just had a minimalistic aesthetic or something but you are so right, it’s totally because she doesn’t read magazines or take pictures. I’m…

I mentioned in another comment but I am pretty sure the ads are tailored to your browser history - so if you’re the kind of person that reads articles about saving animals and protecting the environment, that’s probably why it’s showing up for you and not other people. It is actually to your credit that they are…

My teenage sister watches some really horrifying things like American Horror Story and The Human Centipede - I was deeply shocked and disturbed when I saw her history on our shared Netflix account. I tried to limit her access but the obvious thing with teens is that if you tell them NOT to watch something, they are…

That’s a solid point. There was definelty a sense that women stick together (or try to, until one of them gets snatched into a hotel room by four rapists) - from the very first, Zola was excited to make a new dance-buddy and it seems like she’s used to women who stick up for themselves and eachother. The fact that she…

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?

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?
