It's so horrifying that we expect BLM, a movement started in part to voice the lack of social and political power, to shoulder the burden of all of the world's ills. I get her point and she has issues that concern her perhaps more than BLM does, but she mistakenly thinks there can only be one priority. Or one issue.…

“Frank’s posted a plot-thickening, grammatically unfortunate statement.”

Marketing to children is inherently wrong. In most Western Countries marketing to children is severely curtailed, or outright prohibited, for a reason. In the same way that adults interacting with children as though they were sexual agents (even if no physical contact occurs) is considered abuse, adults interacting…

A while ago I was at Target and walked past a Black father and son, and the son was SO EXCITED jumping up and down saying “Daddy it’s a Black superhero!!” It still makes me smile whenever I think about it. As a Latina, I would have been stoked to see a character that looked like me, all I had was...Speedy Gonzalez?…

STOP WITH THE PRINCESSES! Seriously, the ‘Disney princess’ thing is so gross. Even Disney female characters who aren’t princesses now fall into the category. What happened to normal girls and women in Disney movies? Or how about a Disney President?

We wanted to make sure that [Elena] didn’t have a doll-like appearance,”

Looks like they might be...

If you got so drunk that a mugger noticed and decided to take advantage of that, a lawyer wouldn’t attempt to use your drunkenness to get the mugger off charges.

One reason we get so annoyed about this is because we can follow all these dumb rules and still get raped. I’ve got friends who’ve been raped drunk. I’ve got friends who’ve been raped sober. I’ve got friends who’ve been raped by strangers. I’ve got friends who’ve been raped by friends. People want to set up all these…

Seriously, fuck you.

Most of my relatives are unrefined whites

Because when people are sexually assaulting women, they announce their religion and immigration status?

Haven’t we gotten over the fat thing, yet? (Not directed to you, Smarktalk).
There are entire cultures that live mostly on fat. Fat is not the enemy.

Yeah, bringing up the foster care/homeless thing seemed to be more a way of pointing out this person was basically street scum the manager had “rescued” by giving a job. Definitely some classism, possibly some implied racism/sexism happening there, too.

The reason it rings as fake is because the manager takes too much time to set up the employee as a sympathetic figure.

I’ve had some shitty managers over the years, including one who told a man who took the day off to take care of his sick daughter that he was selfish for letting down the (work) team, but this still sounds fake to me. The employee couldn’t possibly be more sympathetic, and the manager couldn’t be more comically evil…

My Gus cat is a feminist. I can tell by the adoring way he looks at me. Just heart eyes all the time.

The statement released by the TSA was incredibly fucking condescending and dismissive of their horrible actions.

I didn’t recognize half the names on this Dirt Bag.
