Chicago worries me. It’s not a bunch a naked yoga vegans. It’s cliques with an untold number of guns shooting each other. Send in the stormtroopers and we could see full-on urban warfare.

Where I grew up in Indiana, moving more than a county away was frowned upon, especially for women. Having any career dreams larger than a part-time gig at Hobby Lobby was considered unladylike.

The message from AOC was clear. Men like Yoho will be addressed. Their behavior will be made clear to those who weren’t there to hear the comments. Men will not get off the hook by using the women in their lives, as if having females in the family makes them woke. I’m rambling a bit because this was emotional for me.

Why is this not a bigger story? Why was an elected public official allowed to behave this way with (as-of-now) no repercussions? This kind of stuff wouldn’t even fly working at McDonald’s, so why is it allowed in Congress? Good for AOC for standing her ground and calling out this guy out for the coward that he is, but

Anyone can complain on the internet. Can you drive clicks while doing it? Also, how did hubby-hating qualify for Giz instead of Jez?

I wish I had a more eloquent, reserved, or intellectual response to this. Alas.

YAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSS fuck that fucking non-apology and the misogynist brain whence it came.

“I have a wife and some kids who are girls” needs to die the same death that “I have a black friend” did.

It’s so fucking satisfying to hear her calling out the hypocrisy and non-evidential citing of wives and daughters in these kinds of statements. 

You mean he’s never been caught saying it publicly. His niece outed him as saying it in private numerous times during the course of his life.

Holly Hunter in The Piano.

These kinda folks?

Me too. It’s like those folks who said they didn’t get that Obamacare plan, they got their insurance through the ACA.

Now playing

Some of you really, really, really need to watch Raising Arizona. It’s a damn classic and my favorite Holly Hunter performance:

They’ve been running the same radical leftist, socialist, Marxist, domestic terrorist, anarchist!” bukkake of finger-pointing con for so long that none of their constituents even know what any of those actually mean.

I think it’s telling that the current Jez staff appears to know every contestant in the Bachelor franchise and all the personal details of the “waitstaff” from Bravo spin-offs yet seem largely unfamiliar with three very successful female actor/producer/directors who are all highly regarded for their work.

Check out Raising Arizona. That might help you appreciate HH.

So this is a feminist website that can’t tell some extremely talented and successful women apart? Makes total sense!

The problem here is that the Jezebel staff is too young to have known Holly Hunter and Jodie Foster when they were young (in Foster’s case VERY young) actors making their mark in excellent films. Their confusion is clearly generational - they might as well be discussing Greta Garbo, Ingrid Bergman and Barbara Stanwyck.

Wait until you guys see Laura Linney

seriously is Jezebel paying for this mindless BS?

Thanks for not making this a slideshow.
