I gotta say I’m (for once, and dear lord forgive me) on Mariah’s side on this. Used to be a technical flub like this was an embarrassment for the whole show, not just the performer. They ought to have cited technical difficulties, cut for ten, swapped out the malfunctioning part, and resumed broadcast. The voice is as…

Which is even worse. Why do I want to use a bank that is bad at fractions?

I present to you this hot mess.

This is so insignificant in the grand scheme of things. Mariah can eat an ice-cream cone while her vocal track plays for all I care. Our fucking democracy is dying.

You just reminded me of a gal who posted that nonsense meme/story about the husband who was drifting away from his wife & wants a divorce but she asks him to carry her over the threshold every day and then he realizes that he still loves her and then she dies because she of course has cancer.

That same “friend” also vague-posts about needing trust in a relationship and when you ask them about it, they “don’t wanna talk about it”. Then the next week their boyfriend/husband is their KING and they are SO BLESSED.

In other words, Kim Kardashian is that annoying “friend” from high school who changes their relationship status to “it’s complicated” for a day in hopes of getting a lot of attention, then they change it back the next day. And this happens every few weeks or months.

And becoming a Rockette is much more than a job for many who actually attain that level. A Rockette is a very specific role, one that some people aim for their entire life. Just quitting and being a chorus member on Broadway isn’t the same.

...Dolan responded that he hadn’t seen hate from anyone on the pro-Trump side

Forget about the politics for a second, extrapolating from the Miss Universe pageants, it’s safe to assume these women are opening themselves up to sexual harassment by performing for Trump. It’s very reasonable for them to want to skip this performance

Performing for Trump’s inauguration is absolutely seen as an endorsement of Trump and the way he talks about and treats women. Trump himself will say as much when they show up and perform. Remember, they are being coerced into performing for a narcissist who thinks everything is about him.

Why should SHE have to give up her career? I imagine it’s very difficult for dancers to find good work, let alone as a Rockette. I think that all Rockettes should be free to decline the work and not face any retaliation for doing so. I think pressure is being put on them that they will face serious consequences if…

A lot of women don’t know about it. I told my mom last year and she was SHOCKED. The men’s and women’s razors are in different aisles in Target, and she never thought to go into the men’s aisle and check the price.

Basically, they’re taking advantage of women who assume that no one would be so shitty as to charge women…

If you rarely shave, it makes little difference what you buy. That’s my pro-tip. Source: my hairy legs.

Boots did this last year. There was a petition. I didn’t sign it but shared on my fb page. With less disposable income than men (for the most part) and the need for tampons (which are also taxed!), why should we pay a premium for basic toiletries? And I hate pink!

Eh, I think it’s more the general policing of women’s behavior- “you like pink,” “you love babies and want more,” “you love planning a wedding.” I don’t think it’s just stupid women who are buying into this but women who don’t like to rock the boat and I’d say the majority of human beings are this way.

Oh dear. In the US, at least, most all of our hygiene products (that can be argued as “gendered”) are sold at different prices. “Gendered.” Whatever. I buy men’s razors and antiperspirants not only because they are cheaper, but because they are better. We gals have fallen for the “YOUR stuff is so special, and…

They got away with it because customers were willing to pay for it.

Well, since Kim has her own ministry, she certainly seems to be overlooking one very important sin: “Women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the law says.” 1 Corinthians 14:34

“picking and choosing what “sins” are acceptable in the Bible, and using the Bible as a whip!”
