It’s getting ridiculous.

Agreed. I take issue with “(rightful) attack.” Kemper has spoken about and apologized for this, and she is in no way responsible for this organization’s racist past. I can’t think of many things over twenty years old that DON’T have a racist past!

Half is being generous.

I’m going to dissect this bullshit one bit at a time:

As far as celebrity apologies go, this one is about as solid as you could expect.

Kinja’s been fucked up for DAYS. I haven’t been able to access pending replies for a week.

Oh my stars! I was driving around yesterday doing errands and the show Radio Lab had a segment on fatbergs, and I was super glad I had skipped breakfast because it would have been in my lap.

I am.  I have an appointment next Monday with a surgeon and I’m pretty sure he’s going to say “let’s schedule the reversal surgery”.  I’m glad I have the bag, but I’m ready to go back to “normal”

Back in April I had to have emergency surgery for a ruptured colon. So now I’m using a temporary colostomy bag so I’m covered if it comes to that.

In Philly, we call it wooderice.

From Charity Navigator:

Sadly, I do think the outrage is genuine. But that doesn’t make it less stupid or embarrassing. Twitter progressivism (of which this site is little more than a withered extra limb, at this point) has convinced all its adherents that they are right about everything and that getting mad at people for years-old, vaguely…

Hi, police? Come quick, there’s been a murder.

There’s more black people at Veiled Prophet Ball than work at the AV Club

Barsanti didn't write this?

It sounds like his full-time job was taking other people’s work and selling it for his own profit.  This wasn’t even a case of operating an archive to access materials no longer in print. As the screenshot shows, the most popular roms and downloads on the page were mostly same-year releases.

Maybe she wasn’t the kind of person who is made woozy by heights, but why would you stand so close to the edge of sheer cliff like that?

I don’t normally care for any of the “post-punk” which might be recommended by the AV Club (especially if it’s described as “angular”), but black midi is really worth a listen and I’m glad I heard about them.

They should be put on the no fly list.
