An excellent meme

And then we all got annoyed that Jennifer Lawrence seemed like she wasn’t trying because she was trying too hard to not be trying too hard. I feel like our pop culture cycle is just ruthless to female talent.

The load of shit she got always struck me as very bitch eating crackers.

she didn’t deserve any of the hate she got. we made fun of her for being thirsty for an oscar when everyone in the industry is. why did she get singled out?

But it ended up OK. Babu went on to change his name, become a gynecologist, gain Indian citizenship, and father Rajesh Koothrappali.

Excellent point! It’s fear— they’ve worked many years to gain and protect their suburban existence, that guarantee of security, that guarantee of cultural respect as a Wife/Mother/Pillar Of Community. And if other women are expecting a similar guarantee of security & respect, without having to be subservient to men…

Same with Soviet immigrants, except that since they’re white people, they never get past that first stage.

But was the Planned Parenthood pink dress Clinton wore at the Catholic dinner shade? I like to think it is.

Its not “sike!” Its “psych!” Because you psyched them out.

It’s really weird, because I actually have compared older interview and speaking clips of Trump with contemporary ones, and the opposite of what she says is true. There is a marked difference. Not when comparing Hillary, however. Even Trump’s supporters have started doing that weird projecting thing that he does.

What bothers me is that this woman is a professor...

As an Asian American myself, I can attest to there being an initial ‘love-affair’ with right-wing politics when you first come to America. Like you love the country you’re in so much and you believe all the propaganda about it being the land of opportunity, you automatically align yourself with the most patriotic…

It’s an interesting dynamic going on here. As Giri points out, this event was aimed at Hindus, who are only 1/2 of Indian Americans. I’m sure Trump’s support among Muslim Indian Americans is around 0.00001%, and based on what I know anecdotally, Sikh support for Trump is maybe 0.000015%. The low support among these…

I’m an Indian-American, the the anti-Islam sentiment I’ve heard from those of my parents’ generation (and older) is real, and frightening. My parents were not the same way, but at times did respond to common Islamophobic rhetoric in the Indian community. For example, in High School if I had grown out my beard (I told…

7% ain’t bad. I wish only 7% of all Americans were voting for Trump.

As an Indian-American though, I gotta stress that one of the most important parts of this article is that only 7% of us are voting for Trump. He is absolutely detested and reviled amongst the family and friends I have who are also Indian-American (yes, I know anecdotal).

YES. Completely. Shitting all over your wife in a public forum is not self-deprecation. It’s being an asshole.

This. It’s like they both did just as well. They didn’t. She shined; he bombed. Period.

I don’t think Trump even “got” Hillary’s joke about “45 being a good number for a woman.”

On a lighter note, I need to know where Maria Bartiromo got these earrings.
