Dude is using an MLK quote to make himself feel better about being an asshole and getting justifiably kicked around for refusing to apologize? As if that’s what MLK intended when he said that quote. Boy, bye. 

Wow, uh, yeah. That sounds like a serious reach, to get that kind of message out of it.

She made some tenuous and strained arguments that hinged on Nanette supporting “Fascist Aesthetics”.

I feel the same way about Millennial Pink and rose gold for decoration. a lamp or small accent pillow can live harmoniously in a setup, but I cannot accommodate drapes or bedding—it throws off the rest of the colour palette I prefer for the home.

I think, in regards to “the line,” she wasn’t saying that women define how men and women interact. If you look at the context, she’s saying women are the one who decide who hurt them. They draw the line at what behavior is bad and what behavior is good. Because if, as she says, all men think they are good and they…

Am I now allowed to be rather dumbfounded over Chu’s negative take on Gadsby? Like, I kinda get it but at the end of the day Gadsby is not wrong. I feel like Chu is jealous or something.

What does this mean? That male interactions with women must be governed by a “rule book” written by women?

Well, actually, her point was that men don’t get to define the line, women do. And white people don’t get to define the line, racialized people do. And cis people don’t get to define the line, trans people do. And so on and so forth.

There’s one other point worth discussing in your response:

That’s it! That’s two years in a row they’ve chosen colours that wildly popular with retirees in Florida.

You realize that by nitpicking like this you’re undermining what she’s trying to do right? 

It’s like PANTONE is going through a Golden Girls phase.

May it pass quickly. Pantone colors of the year frequently get worked into fashion (coral is pretty flattering for many skin tones, so that’s fine). But it’s dreadful for interior design. There was a period in the late 50s-early 60s when coral colored upholstery was rather popular. It’s probably the only mid-century…

I hear everything you are saying but I don’t think she was trying to offer step-by-step solutions. This is more about the soul searching that we all have to do. I don’t think there is an obvious or clear way forward because this is unprecedented. However, we have to ask these questions and make these statements as a…

She does at the end of the clip. It’s quite brilliant.

If you watch the clip she goes on to exactly that. 

^THIS. And she nails that at the end of the monologue. The link is WORTH IT.

You know she worked as a lawyer before she “married the next president & became first lady,” right?

She is an absolute delight. We’re not good enough for her and she knows it.
