I’m intrigued by the juxtaposition of this essay (which was great) and her media persona. I can’t be the only one that’s slightly disturbed by her Lolita aesthetic. If you told me she was 12 instead of 21, I would believe you. Don’t get me wrong, this isn’t criticism directed at her. I’m sure her team is mostly…
Couldn’t the server have just asked the man to point to the item he wanted on the menu?
Nutella on lightly salted rice cakes is heavenly.
“I expected my children, Star and Gangrel, would be skyclad during their lessons. I am very disappointed, and I shan’t be taking them to the Solstice bonfire in protest.”
Come on. You’re sending your kids to a private school named Gaia and this freaks you out? I’d be happy just to learn they weren’t showering in bong water.
I hate it when fucking rich people talk about how unimportant money should be in our lives. Russel Simmons, give me your riches and go live in a cave, bruh.
Easy for you to say Russell Simmons!
And also....you have Cameron Crowe directing. You have Rachel McAdams and Bradley Cooper. You have the gorgeous landscape and culture of Hawaii. You have (what you hope is) a good script. You have more than enough there to draw in crowds.
Sadly, I think I can hold TWO Coke cans - one under each boob (nursed 2 kids + gravity). Yet, I doubt anyone would congratulate me for posting a picture of it. It’s funny how theses “campaigns” only feature young attractive women.
I don’t want to make assumptions about what it is like to have a mastectomy. But I am imagining that if I had to have a mastectomy, even if I’ve come to terms with it and learned to accept my drastically changed body, seeing a bunch of attractive young women with their perfect breasts holding a coke can in my honor…
Pshh, this challenge is discriminatory! I can’t even hold a pencil there, damn!
“But what I think they meant is that in certain lighting, at certain angles I am able to embody certain cisnormative beauty standards.”
Excellent. Now when I get married (in give or take ten years) I’ll just fill it out as we go along, because I know my wedding is going to be some magical pinterest shit.
Guys, that Stitchers banner ad might have me committing homicide by the end of the day, for reals.
We are also supportive of Twin Peaks charter school.
Good outcome, but the “prosecution” shouldn’t have taken place. As a result of this process, the temperature has been chilled everywhere. If you know an academic with Twitter or Facebook, you know they are thinking thrice before posting anything mildly upsetting.
I was sort of thinking this and glad you said it so well. We really are stuck between a rock and a hard place here aren’t we? I’m so sick of the victims having to ‘take it’ lest they be viewed negatively as troublemakers or ‘sensitive’ while the aggressors get to keep right on fucking up everyone else’s shit.
