Transparent’s Emily Robinson is stunning in this starry tulle number; Randall Park went with a pretty standard tuxedo; Niecy Nash is gorgeous in white; Kate Linder is a clear sky at midnight.

I wonder sometimes about our (western) relationship to animals and the extreme anthropomorphism that we put into it. The moment is important for us, so we drag and prop them into our moment because it’s so important to us. How about them? I wish we could gauge what they want and feel. We may love them too much for…

Everyone thinks they’re soooo great.

Colin Powell has served his country long and well and he’s earned the right to say whatever the hell he wants.

That suggestion was as serious as Colbert asking if he could be black-ish. Yet there was a whole post, chiding him for asking. Just sayin’.

Oh, I’m sorry! I thought I was on something called the Internet, where people can pretty much comment wherever they want. Did I intrude on your safe space?

Can I still say bad dancing is inherently white?

My god- this was a fucking joke!!! Colbert intended it as a joke, she knew it was a joke, the audience knew it was a joke. Kind of like when African Americans say, “Bill Clinton was the first Black President.” It’s tongue in cheek. Humor, with a 1% touch of truth.

And - it’s only for married mothers, not for single women!!

I just wish somewhere on this email chain Ashly had said ‘I didn’t come here to make friends.’

Suuure he’ll nominate Thiel to the Supreme Court! It’s not like Trump is an inveterate liar or anything. I can’t wait until Thiel realizes he was lied to and then secretly funds Trump’s impeachment in the House.

Some people say that it’s difficult for Trump to release his actual medical records because they’re buried in a warehouse in New Jersey, along with his tax records and his NAMBLA membership card. Some people are saying that.

Kris Jenner is not Latina. “She is of Dutch, English, Irish, and Scottish descent.”

“There is no point in getting your picture taken if it doesn’t move somebody.” Her eyes widen. “Right?”

Missing from the FB post: links to resources people can call to report/help addicts, decency, empathy.

It sounds like she tried to resolve it outside of court and her parents refused.

I was reading about this last night. The “keep your knees together” quote is getting the most attention, but I think some of the other things he said were even worse. After acquitting the alleged rapist, he offered some fatherly advice (emphasis mine):

If I punch this douche in the face, can I use the defense that he should have kept his lips together? Therefore not triggering my reaction?

“Now, Sir, I know you were stabbed but did you ever think to angle your body away from the knife? Perhaps mashing your ribs together so the blade couldn’t jam into your heart?”

Lionel Shriver is a nightmare. It comes through in her books. You can’t suppress personality.
