I don’t really understand the argument that it’s sexist, but it does feel like a very old joke at this point.

So... the only copy of this footage was on a 15 year old laptop? That was still working? Or, it had somehow been copied onto a newer laptop, but nowhere else? That’s not really how electronically stored data works, but OK.

“Free speech” as it’s defined in the Constitution—which means the government cannot arrest you for expressing opinions it doesn’t like—actually has very little to do with Twitter, a private corporation with full authority to ban . . . .

I have nothing positive to say about Elon Musk, but posting a link to a story about him being bullied so badly he had to be hospitalized to suggest that he’s not good at fighting is deeply shitty.

The Post has to point out the actual age of consent to make it clear she is not accusing someone of a legal crime, just a moral one.

I don’t really understand the “unseasoned food” dig at white people (other than ‘haha white people’ I guess.) I’m first-gen Cuban-American, so at least 40-50% of my diet was Cuban or Puerto Rican food growing up; but that other half had a lot of variety... so who are the white people who aren’t spicing food? Who are

This type of monetary deferral only applies when someone has been convicted of a crime in certain states and Kelly hasn’t been convicted of anything in terms of sexual violence.

I’m not for one second trying to suggest the sexist double standard doesn’t exist as it does in other fields, where women have to try twice as hard just to be recognised for their talents and then there’s a high chance they won’t be and if they make a mistake will be slaughtered for it, but I can’t read that

Granted, I am wasted, but I do not understand this Ziggy Begonia thing. He would not come for xmas because he was with the other woman, but he was at her house last night? 

Oh, put away the torches, pitchforks, and outsized virtue signaling, people.

taggjng the cleanse maker or whatever is also pretty advertise-y. it’s not like she was just casually talking about taking a break from spicy foods; this was basically a promotion of the cleanse and is pretty in line with a lot of diet culture nonsense that seems opposite of what she supports. so, of course it drew

She can do whatever she wants, but I, like thousands of other people who follow her, was shocked at her post. It was bizarre to see someone like her suddenly posting videos of herself from the front and the side compared with videos from 10 days earlier. Then she tagged a “health expert” in the post and thanked her

I mean, anyone who spreads bullshit “detoxifying” pseduo science should be challenged, but only because it’ s bullshit pseudoscience and it primes people to believe other bullshit if it’s not challenged. Same with alkaline water. No evidence that any of it does anything. No one can name the supposed “toxins” this shit

Eh, I don’t know about that. I’ve gotten plenty of penis voluntarily given, and it wasn’t all good. Even if the guys were okay, doesn’t guarantee good dick.

Now playing

What an icon. I feel like whoever takes over hosting (which, let’s be honest, I’m sure the whole reason they did the GOAT series and added him to the staff is so that Ken Jennings could) should be contractually obligated to overpronounce ‘genre’ just for old times sake:

Seems like you’re trying to stick a lot of baggage on Abigail Spanberger, because the Squad is most definitely not “making it easier for Spanberger to get a job”. Unlike the relatively safe seats the members of The Squad hold, Spanberger flipped a Republican seat in 2018 and barely held onto it in a conservative

Great research. This map is fake. the real one can be found here:

It was an interview on a podcast not a press release.

I really do like Shonda Rhimes’s shows, but this doesn’t make ABC or Rhimes look good. It’s a pittance to Rhimes and ABC...and beyond the reach for many of us peasants. 

I’m sure you afford the same respect for the people who earnestly believe that the Earth is flat, or that a deranged orangutan is the best US president ever.
