OMG Thank you! I actually posted before reading this. I really wonder if there is some kind of deal between Jezebel and Caitlin Jenner!

This Caitlyn love on liberal blogs has to stop. She is an awful, horrible human being, worse than anyone else in that family and that’s saying something. Fuck her (and I’m glad her show is tanking.)

She does have good hair, but I disagree that she always has. It looked pretty terrible the last few years as Bruce. In fact, I think she looks sooooo much better now than she looked as Bruce. The surgeries, etc, make sense now that she is presenting as female.

Identifiable as in possessing traits and qualities that can be associated with a group of people sure, identifiable in a way that the article talks about in the beginning of the article no.

If they qualify for welfare, they qualify for welfare. Everyone gets it, even if they’re hypocrites. Whether they deserve to get private donations is a somewhat different question.

it’s weird that they got all the way to kid #17 before going with “Jennifer.”

maintaining that degree of separation from the world is a luxury.

I just found this bonkers photo, which seems to suggest that there are a pile of kids still at home. I guess you could have the teen Duggars pick up the tiny Duggars from school, and have them do all the childcare until their parents get home, but what a mess. If you wanted to put all of them in after school care,…

And with zero marketable skills they’ll get the fun experience of starting at the bottom and making minimum wage, all while having to interact with outside people who hold different (read: frighteningly heathen) points of view and values than they do.

As what? They have been purposely left without education or skills that they could use to be self-sufficient, which is a sin I guess. They could be babysitters, except for the whole serial molester cover-up thing sort of tends to turn parents off.

I’ve been rewatching The Amazing Race since I need something to tune my brain out to, and it’s fascinating to me that since season one they’ve always had a gay team, and this was in 2001. Queer Eye didn’t even come out until 2004. It’s kind of impressive, actually, even though in that first season the other teams take…

This is one of those stories that always makes me wonder if I’m secretly a horrible person.

I don’t mean to be flip about this, but welcome to the world of reality/contest television - they exploit EVERYONE for ratings/profit. That’s the point. It just took them this long to realize that transgender was a category they could exploit for ratings & profit.

It’s a TV show. Of course they want people who will draw viewers.

That, sir, is a question that can only be answered by the people sitting beside you on your favored mode of public transportation. I recommend asking as loudly as possible.

Her cheekbones protrude like tiny cherries? What the fuck? This is terrible writing.

Your entire final paragraph and, indeed, reason you wrote this piece is based on the fact YOU didn’t like the album and ASSUME the writer didn’t either.

OH OKAY.

“What are you looking at?” she asks. Eyes up here asshole.

‘and sharp cheekbones that protrude like tiny cherries, even when she’s not smiling,’
