The rich, mean girl aesthetic is quite popular right now (for example, all of the people on twitter who tweet that the dad’s fiancé from the parent trap wasn’t really the bad guy and Sharpay from high school musical was just misunderstood). Plus we have had the me too movement and people are more sensitive about…

Plenty of racist people have black friends. It’s not uncommon. Dylan Roof, the white supremacist who walked into a church and murdered a bunch of black people for no reason, had black friends. Get the idea out of your head that she can’t be racist because her friend is black (in reality her friend has a small…

Sadly, it probably won’t happen with the Kardashians. Kim Kardashian did the 1 thing that Paris Hilton didn’t which is marry into relevancy. She is married to a legitimate celebrity, Kanye West, so she will remain famous, even if only as Kanye’s wife. I suspect the rest of her klan will do the same and latch onto…

The announcement from Fitbit didn’t say “women.” It specifically said “female.” There is a difference. The author seems to not realize this but wants to get on her high horse about it anyway. Not everyone who has a period identifies as a woman, but everyone who has a period IS biologically female. I’m sure Fitbit was…

What is Wayne doing there?

It’s actually really not that hard to have no meaningful interactions with white people. If you live in a black neighborhood and shop at mostly black stores and go to black church, etc. it’s not that hard. There are a lot of neighborhoods that are like that. You may see white people when you go to certain places like…

I can actually agree with her on this one point in theory:

I don’t deny that their marriage was probably one of convenience (i.e. she married him because he was rich. he married her because she was young and good looking), but that doesn’t necessarily mean she knew about all of the types of shit he was doing. There is a big difference between a guy who is an asshole and a guy…

Taken out of context, I would say it’s offensive, but in the context of their little back and forth insult game and in light of the fact that Blackson dared him to do it, I can kind of see how they thought it would be funny or creative. I don’t find it funny, but I also don’t find it all that offensive.

This is such a dumb discussion because they aren’t even real. Secondly, if we are going to talk about this, we are going to need to use a different statistic because the one above doesn’t apply to half of these women. The statistic specifies “23.7% of women in the United States.” The key words being “United States.”…

Or perhaps he was innocent of the crime alleged against him?

“Rev. Sacha Walicord, a pastor who spoke out against the inclusion of more LGBTQ books, agrees: “As a congregation, I would have to say we are shocked that tax money is being used to push this agenda even further,” he said.”

I feel the same way. Nice body, but I don’t like the face.

Damn. That’s fucked up. I can get the point he was trying to make and if we were talking about a 17 year old or something (there are some places in the world where 17 is the age of consent), I could say that his point has some merit. But 13? I don’t think you can justify and adult having sex with a 13 year old, even…

I actually like this point. I think some people just have them just because. I would love to have a bunch of kids when I am older, but that is because I genuinely would like to live my life surrounded by them, not just because it’s the next thing to do once you reach a certain age.

That’s a completely unfair thing to say. Of course people are going to be upset if they wanted to have an experience and payed for the experience and now can’t have it and are out of hundreds or thousands of dollars in non-refundable flights. That’s called human emotion. It doesn’t mean you blame her for having an…

I agree. I don’t feel like he sexually assaulted her and don’t feel like this should be included in the same realm as “me too.” I think he was very wrong and acted like an asshole, but she was always free to go. He didn’t force anything on her. This reminds me of the type of stuff they tell you in high school (“If a…

I believe the writer got their point about hip hop being most popular from another article that did indeed talk about hip hop bypassing rock as the most popular genre in America (according to Nielson numbers).

The title of the article says to me that the author either misread or misunderstood the response that Stewart gave. He does not seem to be expressing shock at the allegations, so much as at the admission of guilt. He heard these allegations, but the guy was his friend so he brushed it off and he was shocked to find…

James Franco is almost certainly going to take this award home.
