Name one GOP candidate that is likable? You can’t. Yet nobody seems to worry about that.

I recently went to see a standup show where Trevor Noah was a surprise performer. His whole set was a joke about Oscar Pistorius and the punch line was that his fiancée had annoyed him so badly when he woke her up in the middle of he night that he shot her.

Unrelated, but I love your handle :D

Wanting to create a doll that could better support the clothes her daughter was trying to dress the dolls in, Handler found a novelty toy abroad and modified it to work as a toy for children,

NOOOO!!! It may be interesting, but I do not want Barbie getting unwarranted positive publicity now. They were getting so close to cultural irrelevance!

“Novelty toy” umm it was a porn doll.

I don’t judge individuals but let’s say I am suspicious of how many dudes have fantasies that align perfectly with existing patriarchal norms.

Right on. This “I choose my choice” brand of feminism is perfectly unhelpful. Nobody is saying you’re not allowed to like what you like, but when they suggest that maybe you like something that you wouldn’t like had it not been for the toxic culture you’ve soaked up since birth, they’re not passing judgement on you as…

He’s a man, and he’s a man tasked with illustrating male fantasies for men. Are you not surprised?

Heels make your legs look fabulous and she’s sitting down, the only comfortable way to wear heels.

It’s crazy to me that women are expected to do 100% feminist things 100% of the time. I know environmental activists who really try to be environmentally friendly most of their personal lives, but sometimes, they just get the plastic takeout silverware even if they don’t need it, or leave the lights on if they’re…

I assumed that was part of the joke. Models traditionally wear heels in photos, even if they’re wearing swimsuits or otherwise in a situation where it makes no sense. The whole point is that it is ridiculous.

There’s probably not really coffee in her cup either. That’s okay.

To be fair, her schtick is not “I’m a fat comedian.” Her schtick is “I’m fat by hollywood/LA standards which is ridiculous because I’m an average-sized woman who eats like normal people need to eat. . .and maybe drinks too much.”
