I wonder if it’s sometimes difficult for Gawker writers to turn their snark meters down or something, or I guess also they’re just writing with no lead time. Or... I dunno. But I think the content of this post on its own could kind of encourage a snap judgment that isn’t really fair. Also annoying that there’s no…

If you haven’t checked it out, the description on the WomenCrossDMZ site might clarify some things: https://www.womencrossdmz.org/

I would definitely agree that there are higher barriers in general for performers who are POC. To me though your comment about voices specifically reminds me of "Black people have such great voices!" stereotypes. I mean, I don't think you're actually saying that though... but I guess I just feel compelled to add that…

Not trying to argue, but genuinely asking: if you have any sources for that, I would be interested. I have seen women-on-a-pedestal ad nauseam in arguments against women getting the vote: Ladies, you are far too virtuous to lower yourselves to the level of dirty politics. You know, unless you don't fit within the…

It's not a house; it's a place of business and they were interacting in public. If I observe a White manager interacts with a Black subordinate in a way that comes across as offensively racialized, I am completely entitled to be offended and pissed off and shit talk the place, regardless of how fine or not fine with…

Another way of thinking about this might be in terms of caretaking more generally. Women do overwhelmingly occupy caretaking roles — including caretaking of children — and that work is often relatively invisible, underpaid, and lacking in respect. Related to that: it's not men with children who are being…

beyond their names

You've got to have flash and flair
And if you're not seen in red
You shouldn't be seen nowhere

to be fair, that's a pretty good reason

If everything were the same except she hadn't gone behind his back initially, do you think you would see this in pretty much the same way, or differently?

I feel like I phrased that in a more confrontational way than I intended... It just sounds to me like her leaving is what you would want if you were the husband in that situation, but I think that other people might want something different.

If she is unsure she just needs to leave then

But so the inverse of this is that "Amy" has no choice but to stay in this relationship and meet his needs while not having her own needs met. Following your perspective, she's there keeping his life from falling apart. If she can do that and find some way of dealing with her sexual needs that doesn't involve having…

Seriously... The overall percentage of women in TV writers' rooms in 2013-14 was 25%. It is in fact overwhelmingly the other way around. Actually even that is somewhat charitable, considering that the percentage of men in Broad City's writer room is actually higher than the overall prevalence of women writers. [They…

People who can only see blue-black or can only see white-gold: Are you more of a morning person/lark, or more of a night person/owl? #ArmchairTheories

I can't see white-gold either. Question: would you say tend to be a night owl, a morning lark, neither one?

Ooh, even more intriguing. I wonder how deep the conspiracy goes...

I am seriously wondering if that was 100% intentional and if uncomfortable is exactly what she was going for. Those lyrics, I mean... Am I crazy? Have I just been blinded by her Madgesty or something?

I am genuinely wondering if this was an intentional part of the performance. Am I crazy? The lyrics seem so right on...
