This is one of my favorite insults:

Vagina, coined in the late 17th century, is literally the Latin word for “sheath” or “scabbard.”

So let me get this straight. Cunt is allowed on Twitter when it’s used as an insult, but banned when it’s used in celebration?

Reclaim cunt. Cunt is, etymologically speaking, the only word that describes the female genitalia as an entity its own right, as opposed to the scabbard to a sword. Cunt was an ancient word of supreme power and respect and bodily autonomy until the patriarchal agenda, seeking to establish and protect primogeniture…

I have nothing to add to this conversation because even thinking about twitter makes me start humming funeral music in my head.

If it’s not allowed on Twitter then pretty much the whole of Australia will be banned. We tend to use it here in the same way the rest of the world uses the word ‘bitch’.

No sympathy.

I like “When Harry Met Sally,” but it was trying to be “Annie Hall" for the 80's. This is impossible, because "Annie Hall" is a perfect movie - in no small part because Annie and Alvy do not end up together.

Bezos leans over, pauses for the briefest of moments before murmuring “I can get you same-day delivery of anything...anything...you could possibly desire. Here...let me show you my Prime Member.”

It’s just Annie Hall--but with a happy ending. If they’d split at the end, it’d just be... Annie Hall.

It was already practically a remake of Annie Hall, and that would have made it just... Annie Hall. It would’ve been derivative. It’s actually the better choice to have them get together, in my opinion.

Normally I’d agree but I think the ending is perfect. One of the few romantic speeches I actually find romantic. And having them be the final couple in those vignettes made perfect sense.

Gaytekeeping?

Peck’s column popped up in my newsfeed on Saturday and I read it all the way through. Within its text, one thing became clear to me (me: a 57 year old gay man who went through the early 90s in NY and LA - and all that meant, too): Peck is stuck in a time and place and suffering from arrested development. I’d wager…

All of this.

This. It’s like if a black man wrote an essay about Obama and heavily implied he wasn’t a real black man because he never joined a gang or smoked crack. It’s literally criticizing the man for not embodying stereotypes.

Is it possible that it’s maybe not outright homophobia, but still pretty shitty to criticize someone for not being gay the way you want them to be (politician or not)?

Ofcourse she’s the new 007. And now all of you are gonna pretend this is cool and amazing. Because ofcourse everybody wants the James Bond franschise to go ULTRA woke. She cant have her own franschise, it has to be JAMES BOND. Lol. And Im just not gonna watch it. Im done pretending this is a good thing.

Did you read the article? She’s playing a new character who’s inheriting the code name 007. She’s not playing James Bond himself.

Another example of not being able to create new stories for new characters. If this isn’t satire, it’s going to absolutely flop. This story has to be fake.
