...I mean, why is Ted Cruz offering to have Jim Jordan wrestle Ron Perlman seemingly of completely his own initiative? Also it feels weird for Cruz to insult a 70 year old man for not getting in to an actual fight and still seem to think he holds some kind of a moral high ground there.

I’ve got a great name for them: “Lady A’s Kitchen.”

Obviously JK Rowling by a million percent. Gwyneth may be out of touch, but she isn’t spewing hate on a group of people already susceptible to discrimination and violence.

Against this social backdrop, the absurdity of the 45-year-old mother of all summer blockbusters, Jaws, has never been clearer. It is the story of a cop, with no background in marine biology and, in fact, hatred of water, taking it upon himself to hunt a great white shark, a vulnerable apex predator whose survival is…

YEP. I have run afoul of these people too. I am an ardent, non-TERF feminist. I know who I am. I also know that malignant narcissism isn’t gender-bound. “Believe women” should mean “listen and hear and weigh with compassion,” not “Yeah she’s got ovaries, we’re good.”

I was surprised to learn that when I had my uterus removed, I also lost my XX chromosomes. 

In addition to the transphobia, you’d think a 54 year old would be acutely aware that not all cis-women menstruate. 

The only real flaw in this movie is the unfortunate comic thread about Bill Hunter’s exotic-dancer wife. Everything else is great.

Ellen Pompeo gets it.

She is clearly saying that she has PERSONALLY never seen assault weapons at a Pride or Womens’ March. She probably hasn’t!

(Side note, it is simply inaccurate to say that there hasn’t historically been a significant police presence at Pride marches (and also erases the black lgbtq+ community’s specific experience with police violence). Ever heard of the riots at Stonewall?)

I am really struggling with what is going on with these Jezebel writers lately. They are just shitting on people for ridiculous reasons, blatantly missing the point, and from the comments it’s more than obvious that they are entirely out of touch with their audience. The fact that they’ve *more than once* mocked…

Precisely. And like...we (and certainly the writer here) are not the target audience for that statement. The target audience is the White People Who Still Just Do Not Fucking GET IT — the ones who minimize the issue, and make excuses, and rationalize the heavy police/military presence, and assume that anyone who is…

I feel like it was pretty clear that Ellen’s question was rhetorical...

Since “robsanders2000" deleted his account at some point during this, you are missing the bit why Chrissy upped the cash from 100K to 200K.

If Kelly Ripa was already in the Caribbean with her family, had been isolated long enough to know that they weren’t infected, and has practiced safe measures while down there, I can’t say that I blame her for not boarding a plane and returning to the COVID epicenter when all hell broke loose. Understandably, this is…

Oh c’mon, “she was basically on an extended vacation,” really? Whether or not you agree with the family’s decision to stay in place, Kelly at least is working. Whether or not you like her/her job, she’s showing up every morning and giving it 100%.

I’m not sure if that was supposed to be the setup for a joke, but let me try:

The late great Ken Dodd - Liverpool comedian who was still doing 4 hour stand-up gigs well into his 80s (often leaving audiences to miss the last bus home) was a keen student of comedy. He was once explaining his theories to an interviewer, observing “You can tell a joke in Glasgow, but they won’t laugh in…

Please let there be a scene in which the Reverend tries to disguise himself as Prince Frederick (or vice versa) and someone else says “How could anyone possibly believe you were the same person?” (A Young Doctor’s Notebook burn)
