BREAKING: Israel Killed Al Jazeera Journalist Anas Al-Sharif
Journalists in Gaza continue to be murdered in record numbers, while Western media outlets and reporters show little or no outrage.
Israel has killed 240+ journalists. People who'd cover a strike that killed their kids and go on to cover the next strike, in the pursuit of convincing the world to act, of the hope of tomorrow being different.
How many more murders will it take for the mainstream media's cowardly fever to break?

Throwing sex toys on court at WNBA games is about power, not humor
This latest 'trend' is not funny. It's harassment
I wrote about the WNBA and dildogate for Andscape: βBy using the sex toy to make their point, the stunt becomes more than just an annoyance or a danger during play β it becomes a sexualized threat to the women on the court, an allusion to violence that can keep them in their place.β

sorry dude but if straight men canβt figure out how to apply basic rules of attraction (e.g. be thoughtful, wear a grey hoodie sometimes, read books) to make themselves fuckable then maybe they deserve whatever fake crisis of confidence theyβre in. i donβt need to read any more essays about it
