I am happy for Bruce for becoming who he is, and I wish him the best.

I have been having shit luck finding a gynecologist who takes the shit plan that I can afford (and have had *crazy* bad experiences at other doctors), so Obamacare hasn't really been a godsend for me. So when I heard the Republicans were going to put forth a plan, I literally said out loud, "I'll listen." Desperation…
Oh man. Great points, but this is a lit-boner killer. Now I don't know if I can read it in good conscience. I will have to think about this.
Well. Didn't someone realize how badly he fucked up.
It's the neo-liberals. They are not progressive. They are our Tea Party, with more campus buzzwords and fewer effigies. I'm so glad more and more people are speaking out about exactly what you're saying. I was feeling alone on here for a while in that.
You show 'em who's Burt over at Cosmo.
A few thoughts:
Yeah, on the whole I'm not a fan of fraternities, but what you just described is something you see a lot of on Jezebel. Like that chick who said, "Literally all men" and the one who is mocking the issue with a GIF. Real great representation of feminism ladies—you only make me embarrassed to call myself one. This type…
Totally! Or a corpse!
I was also napping during the Great Facebook Outage of 2015! If I had been awake I would have gathered candles, battery-operated radios, and bread. Or just checked downrightnow.com. Probably that.
Anna Holden (of the coffee latte story) sounds like a pedantic asshole. Of course the woman wanted a latte, she was just pronouncing it wrong. It's so obvious—she was versed in Starbucks, where they probably just accepted her pronunciation as a particular tic. Anna's recalcitrance and superiority on that issue is like…
But it's not stupid. It speaks to the integrity of the coach, the team, and the game. It boggles me that if they are determined to have cheated (which it's pretty clear they did), they get to keep their win. They didn't win. They cheated and got a higher score. That's not the same as winning.
Also, porn sex and regular personal sex are not the same thing. These performers are promiscuous by trade. You're saying that everyone should be forced to wear condoms because of HIV, but most people are not promiscuous. You're making a false equivalence. Also, don't forget that STD rates are much higher than in the…
It is a workplace safety issue. I wouldn't not argue that. It's weird to say, "Because you said this, then you can't mean that" when those things are not mutually exclusive. It is a public health issue, and it is a workplace safety issue, at the same time.
You and I are not talking about the same thing. I'm talking about a huge study, where they made the raw data available, and I did the math myself. The data are online and easily accessible.
The figure skater can't then go off-ice and give someone else a concussion.
It is patently false that the porn industry has a lower STI rate than the general population. 2011 CDC data say that less than 1% of the general population has syphilis and chlamydia, while fully 25% of the porn performer population has these diseases. The data are out there—don't listen to that sad old porn industry…
The meaning is pretty clear: whoever wrote that is a classist piece of shit who deserves to experience some hard times without his mommy/daddy-net. Maybe then he'll stop disparaging people with fewer opportunities, and fewer ways to take hold of them when they appear.
What is the transphobic/racist material? That is essential information in being able to dissect what is happening here.
I'm not sure how much of rape culture can really be tackled in any significant way on a half hour comedy show. We were made to feel uncomfortable because we love Abbi, and we don't want to think of Abbi as a rapist, and we're making excuses for her because she was operating in a what could be seen as a gray area. He…
