“Imagine Trump’s legs,” would be my yawning response as I recused myself from her presence.
And most importantly, you get to be self righteous in comment threads about engagement rings. And who can put a price on that?
For the first time in history, white men have to occasionally, just a tiny bit, think before they speak and be questioned about their words and beliefs. This is the “political correctness” everyone is whining about. How dare people that they’ve always been able to oppress, insult, laugh at, or dismiss demand respect…
Yeah, I don’t have strong feelings about her acting one way or the other, but I always kind of felt like it was unfair that they criticized her for only using one expression when she was in Twilight. If you read any part of the books you know that was an absolutely reasonable decision - the book character doesn’t seem…
Agreed. KStew’s not what anyone would call a people-pleaser. I suspect a lot of her I-don’t-give-a-fuck ‘tude is also, partially, a system of defense against the tsunami of attention focused on her since Twilight.
Thanks. I didn't mean my second one to come off argumentative or anything. Just talkin. But yes! It does! I've also found that if I keep a neutral expression and let the other person talk themselves out, I get a much clearer picture of what they're about. Silence is powerful.
This is so huge. Hollywood is still incredibly closeted, and the women who do come out are overwhelmingly not on the A list. If they are on the A list, they wait until their careers are largely over to come out (cough cough, Jodie Foster). Even when you have women who come out, there’s a lot of “I’m bi (but you will…
I really appreciated your original comment. I used to be a heavy "telegrapher" but now I find that keeping a calmer demeanor actually helps me FEEL more level. Mind/body? Also, I'm tired of smiling to please people. Darnit -guys don't seem to feel obliged to do that.
Wow. It looks like some people have gone from “crazy fans” to possibly actually needing help. I am actually really concerned about those people.
Research it.
Gal pals. They’re gal pals.
I also want to say that I also wear a lot of these styles and I believe this entire post to be a violent subtweet
I just loved her history anecdotes. Usually when a character spouts something like that it’s utterly irrelevant and to show how nerdy/out of touch with the situation they are but she has joined Dr. Price from Snakes on a Plane for movies showing someone volunteering their expertise well. It can be done, movie writers!
Maybe, but that won’t necessarily stay true if they are permitted to run amok and make the place unbearable for decent people. Most of us don’t want to be buried in an avalanche of memes comparing black people to apes and grotesque pornography so the effect of allowing the worst people free reign to do that shit is…
Even if you wanted to (and for the record, I don’t think the using hate speech is a great way to combat hate speech), it’s sort of impossible to try and turn around hate speech like that. There’s no equivalent to calling a black person the n-word that you can use on a white person. There’s no equivalent to calling a…
You’re completely right about that. But it’s very telling about the agenda of the people who only discuss it within that context. Too many of these people would never use it to defend talking about evolution or safe sex in schools, having an open dialogue about racism without being called a race-baiter or about sexism…
Remember to flag and dismiss, people.
