[Please take note that the commentary is just for fun. Bunch of sarcasm. Don’t take it too seriously. I am getting tired of these outfits, though.]

Dammit it Patton, could you be more gorgeous?

Dammit it Patton, could you be more gorgeous?

Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. Take pride that even though the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place.

My mom is adorable. She wanted to change her profile picture to the red equality one, and did not know how. She is a closet liberal, I know it!

And when we frame all women as being someone’s wife, mother or daughter, what are we teaching young girls?

We are teaching them that in order to have the law on their side, they need to be loved by men. That they need to make themselves attractive and appealing to men in order to be worthy of protection. That their lives and their bodily integrity are valueless except for how they relate to the men they know.

For readers interested in learning more about how not to be labeled as registered sex offenders, a good first step is not to rape unconscious women, no matter how good your grades are. Regardless of the strength of your GPA (weighted or unweighted), if you commit rape, there is a possibility you may someday be convicted of a sex crime. This is because of your decision to commit a sex crime instead of going for a walk, or reading a book by Cormac McCarthy. Your ability to perform calculus or play football is generally not taken into consideration in a court of law. Should you prefer to be known as “Good student and excellent football player Trent Mays” rather than “Convicted sex offender Trent Mays,” try stressing the studying and tackling and giving the sex crimes a miss altogether.

—Mallory Ortberg, on Gawker

Mallory Ortberg, laying waste to fools on GAWKER, today, regarding CNN’s offensively lovey-dovey coverage of the two high school football stars who were convicted on Sunday of sexually assaulting a blacked-out drunk 16 year old girl from a neighboring town at a party, and then sharing pictures of her on the internet. 

More details HERE

I think it’s reasonable to say that, given the football culture of Steubenville, OH and the notorious difficulty of proving sexual assault even when the victim REMEMBERS WHAT HAPPENED, it is likely that what these jocks did to this other human would have become simply a dark part of Steubenville high school folklore, were it not for the digital trail of photos, tweets, and texts that the bystanders and assaulters themselves put out into the world. 

SO THANK YOU, NERDS, FOR INVENTING SOCIAL MEDIA. 

And thank you, Mallory and Manhattan snark-media for reminding some people—including CNN, apparently—what personal responsibility actually means. 

That is all.

“If women and girls everywhere were treated as equal to men in rights, dignity, and opportunity, we would see political and economic progress everywhere. So this is not only a moral issue, which, of course, it is. It is an economic issue and a security issue, and it is the unfinished business of the 21st century. It therefore must be central to U.S. foreign policy.”

Pope-schmope, What I like to think he will do with his retirement

I have been playing out a scenario in my head where the Pope is retiring because Jiminy Cricket, or some child or magical manic pixie dream girl showed him his conscience. And he is just being crushed with the weight of it all. The harmful legacy of the Catholic church, the extravagance of those red shoes, the holes his faithful have just ripped through people, in injustice and straying so far from the social justice piece that modern Catholics would like to see reflected in their church, rather than the volumes of hell and inequality that exist. 

When this beam of realization hit him, he planned his retirement, and wants to spend his last days doing the scholarly work he is passionate about, writing this epic thesis trying to undo all the work he and his ilk have done. Right the course of the ship toward a modern era. 

But then, this scenario goes fuck-all when he decides to give his last words to someone like Sinead O’Connor (who is going to believe her) or a backstabbing Cardinal who burns it in some secret chamber of the Vatican. Or, on the grail half full kind of view:  maybe he tweets it, and it’s verified to be true.

Hey, a recovering Catholic atheist can dream, right?
