Edited for stupid kinja repetition.

My absolute favorite response to this:

I think it has, like...a sort of second layer tent thing? Like the black is a fitted underlayer? I’m honestly a little baffled by it.

I’m pretty sure his family made sure that he got married so that someone could make sure he didn't get stuck in corners all the time.

I’m fairly certain that swimming and being made fun of are his only reasons for existing.

For what it's worth, I've never heard anything but good about him, and a friend of mine who randomly got to hang out with him said he was funny and delightful. Apparently he gives excellent non-creepy compliments and hugs (hugs only when clearly invited, no weird hand placement).

I’m not - “twerp” isn’t a compliment, or even harmless per se. I made a friggin’ joke in response to someone else’s about him not being, you know, a literal fascist. JFC, people. He’s a stupid man that I like to make fun of.

...yes?

I mean, at least he seems vaguely good-natured? I’m a fan of the theory that he’s literally a Golden Retriever that was transformed into a human.

Ryan Lochte is very lucky that he’s very good at swimming.

Michael Ian Black DOES NOT PLAY.

It’s an understandable caution, but according to a couple sources I’ve read, he referred to himself as a man during his later years (although of course we can’t be certain what Mr. Gill would have preferred today). It’s possible that today’s expanded understanding would have resulted in him identifying as genderqueer…

The number of people commenting who are not aware of this is incredible. Like, if they have years of commenting history, shouldn’t they know?

I really, really like the hygeine analogy. Sure, I’m a clean person, but that doesn’t mean I can stop showering.  :)

I know this is shallow of me to say, and not the most important thing at all, but Mr. Incognito looks like he’s constructed out of ham.

A huge part of it was learning to not get upset about being informed that I’m racist - white people tend to hear “youre a racist” or “you’re a bigot” and assume they’re being told that they’re deliberately malicious. I finally realized a while back that racism is an ism, a societal structure - like capitalism, I…

The last one, honestly. It takes work, and any human wants to sometimes just assume that they’ve “got it” now, but I’ve gradually taught myself to keep inspecting my behavior and assumptions. I’m not going to get everything every time, so I just keep working on it.  :)

Yep, exactly. Racism and white supremacy are the water in which we swim, and there is no reason for anyone to assume I’m one of the fish that knows what water is, or even given that, that I’m a fish who remembers it every time. I’m a cis-het white woman, and there are plenty of reasons for Black people to assume I’m…

I love that the #NotAllWhitePeople types don’t seem to get that if you feel attacked by articles like this, you might want to look closely at yourself. I’m definitely white, and I don’t generally feel targeted by them. I’ve also done my best to unlearn my white fragility, though, so there’s that.

Oh man - Rapaport should know better than to start Twitter fights and yet he does ALL THE TIME. That said, I am so here for him getting draaaagged on Twitter, which is going to happen.
