This a thousand times. For example, how about instead of women repressing their instinct to apologize, we ask men to apologize a little more?

Yes! I know Adichie isn’t saying you should be a raging bitch to everyone all the time, and I totally get and agree with what she is saying: girls and women are encouraged to tie our self-worth to what other people think of us, and consequently we spend way too much time trying to change and conceal and lie about what…

How has he not been fired by now? Or at the very least put on permanent filing duty with mandatory daily counselling sessions. Fucking psycho.

I’ve had orgasms (very rarely with the menfolk, but I’m good with myself), but if Nicki wants to teach me how to climax better I am absolutely down. She’s so fucking gorgeous and boss.

I’m in France at the moment and I’ve had to declare a moratorium on discussions of the headscarf. It just leads to heated circular dinner table arguments. Even my lovely leftist friends basically think it should be banned from school, work, and public spaces. I’m having such a hard time understanding why they feel so…

This is also one of the THREE news items (selected from world events happening to any one of 7.125 billion people) Facebook chose to feature on my sidebar:

Too many Kardashians, you guys. Too fucking many. I love eavesdropping on the lives of these vapid, idiotic, generally boring people as much as the next person, but for fucks sake. I think its time we have a one Kardashian per Dirt Bag rule.

I’d argue that in the American context, “Muslim” is functionally a racialized category.

Don’t be that guy that runs to make sure NOTHING is ever called ‘racism’ and then pretend its just because you’re ‘protecting the sanctity of the term racism’. Again, I did not just now fall off the turnip truck.

Islamaphobia always carries a racist component due to the fact that, unlike Christianity, Islam is seen as a majority non-white religion, which makes it an offense to a white supremacist society. So society’s animus toward non-white people is inevitably tied to a religion which is perceived as favoring non-white…

Maybe the beer guy (and a lot of the passengers who didn’t speak up) didn’t notice what happened. How many people on planes are paying close attention to other people’s drink orders and conversations? I bet at least 90% of the people on that flight were wearing headphones while this went down.

‘eh, Kanye has nothing to really gain from speaking at LATTC. Like it’s so far out of the realm of his usual press.

After receiving the letter Ian walked to Dave’s house to return the letter and gave him a five hour lecture on how the mail system is a tool of oppression.
