Oprah is a shameless opportunist and it is about time she was called out for it. She preys on society’s most vulnerable members and feeds them consumerist pablum as way to ‘fix’ their problems.

I’m peeved that people just reduce Duvall’s career down to The Shining. Her career is chock full of great directors and her exemplary work behind the camera for children’s entertainment. She is a gentle soul and does not deserve this, leave her the hell alone.
I’ve been a bit surprised by the reaction to Doctor Phil. Like, this was the final straw? When did people hear about Dr. Phil? Yesterday? He’s been a piece of shit for a long, long time. Whatever other gifts she has, Oprah has consistently shown herself to be a fairly poor judge of character.
I don’t get the point of a monarchy without power. Symbolic monarchies are useless.
I don’t how to feel about it. One minute I’m laughing so hard I pee, and the next I’m so terrified I...pee.
Wormtongue would have been a better analogy.
These are the type of people, I’ve recently come to realize, who think they aren’t being racist because they aren’t overtly claiming they hate black people, and aren’t out lynching anyone.
Just like the noose around Obama’s neck isn’t racist, right? Just a handy coincidence.
If you refer to a black person as an “ape” there is no way in HELL you are not being racist. I’m sorry. This is not a case of “you misread my comment thooo.” It’s blatant racism.
These two strips are stuck on my fridge:
At least it’s not something really weird and fucked up. Relatedly, I watched the first episode of Black Mirror on Netflix last night. A client recommended it and I’m like fuck, dude, you could’ve warned me. This was not the week for that shit.
My daughter is allergic to peanuts and treenuts. And I like Nutella but this sandwich should be shunned.
Huh. I thought the funny thing about PC Principal was that, when it came right down to it, he was still a white, cis, straight man in charge who didn’t actually listen to the people he was allegedly trying to help. PC by name but not by action. Perhaps I was giving them too much credit on that one.
The Gawker award was excessive and likely would not have stood up on appeal had they not settled, but having a snippet of your sex tape published on the internet seems like a pretty harrowing experience to me. There is a lot that is enraging about how Gawker was destroyed by a vengeful billionaire, but it doesn’t…
$25 million in damages for the frat? Think of all the Salvation Army couches and pony kegs of Killian’s Red that could buy!
This is so realistic I can’t even tell if it’s satire or not.
Nah, Trump sensed a draft come into the room, so he was dodging it.
I fucking love how much she says fuck. Also, much appreciate her saying us childless women are brave. I get so many annoying comments about my lack of children...why don’t you have kids? When are you going to have kids? Don’t you want kids? What, you don’t have kids? Oh, you’ll change your mind, kids are the most…
So the guy perpetrates the violence and then blames the woman for not preventing it? (Checks all of human history.) YUP! CHECKS OUT!
