The “old man Weinstein” act is fucking hilarious. Crawl your way to prison on your belly if you have to, slug. Crawl. It makes it all the more gratifying.

Not to mention why we need to anesthetize ourselves because we are living lives of quiet misery.

As someone whose father is in an advanced stage of Korsakoff’s syndrome I can only say amen to that. I really don’t care which puritan or feminist persuasion you ascribe to, let’s just all drink less instead of trying to race the other side to the bottom, yeah? Because the results are quite frankly a horror-show to…

Humblebrag of the year slides into the comments at the 11th hour.

When all of this first broke people were pointing out he got with his current wife while he was still with his first. So even tho it's shitty for all of this to happen while pregnant, if they'll cheat with you they'll cheat on you

I’m sure “the lowest moment” of Kevin Hart’s life was not when he cheated, but when he got caught. And if his partner had never confronted him, he’d carry on with his shitty philandering and never give it another thought. In my experience, this is how most dudes function. 

Please point out where I give a pass to adult men.

Weird, because I’m 10 years older than she is, and I knew as a teen not to use those words, much less post them online.

This captured my feelings exactly. Calling someone “my n***a” and saying the n-word while quoting rap lyrics is being a dumb teenager who doesn’t know better.

I want to stay away from anything that makes me think I can’t live my life the way everybody else does.

the judgement in that maya assholes hearing was:

The Harvard men’s soccer team thing was three years ago, which I guess is “half a lifetime ago” if you’re six years old. Though if that’s the case, why are you posting here and not bugging your parents for overpriced toys that you’ll never play with?

Half a lifetime ago? Cenk said some of this shit 5 years ago. Just because he endorsed Bernie and Bernie endorsed him doesn’t make him a GOOD candidate. Especially to take over a seat vacated by Katie Hill. It’s shameful.

“While a group of mostly white, mostly New York-based feminist bloggers were making their names in the aughts, it was the radical selfless activists on the margins of the blogosphere who erected the scaffolding for the feminist internet as we now know it today. As Brittney Cooper, co-founder of the Crunk Feminist…

Sorry to be the person who criticises the headline, but I did read the article first, and then I went away for an hour and came back after thinking about it, so I feel okay about criticising the headline.

Yeah, this and a general decline in personal blogging. Which was of course in large part because blogging, especially controversial outrage-filled blogging, lead to burnout. So everyone that started blogging around the same time got burned out around the same time and quit around the same time. 

Whether the topic is feminism, nerd stuff, sports, whatever. Bloggers in general just seem to be terrible people. And honestly, it’s the widespread adoption of the Gawker tone that led to this and what has come to be the Gen-X/Millennial writing style:

Never forget MizJenkins’s struggles with white feminist bloggers on this very site:

That is not how that is supposed to be done. Officers are instructed, and I can vouch for it being done repeatedly, to NEVER do that taste test of breast milk nonsense. That would ensure disciplinary action and possible removal. I have seen it written, it is very express.

Eminem is a misogynistic asshole who is pushing 50 yet insists on rehashing the past. He’s not stuck in 2009. He’s stuck in 2001.
