We’re already in a Reign of Terror. The question is who do we want steering it?

Well, Being a hate-filled golem is probably pretty stressful.

Fingers crossed for this.

IIRC Women led the bread marches as well as the march on Versailles during the French Revolution. I’m not saying I want another Reign of Terror, but women do get shit done.

That part I don’t like either. I didn’t mind, didn’t care when she wrote about her disastrous life on xojane, but giving her $500k is everything that’s wrong about publishing in a nutshell

Except why the fuck is she earning a shit ton of money for this garbage when normal people struggle earning minimum wage?

Yeah, every time she surfaces in the media I read a bit of her writing and am always deeply unimpressed. It’s mediocre and self-important.

This actually pains me to type because I will fully admit that Cat Marnell has been in my annual DeathPool draft for YEARS. BUT-

She looks like she smells like Russell Brand’s armpits mixed with Britney Spears’ Fantasy perfume.

That excerpted paragraph has soooo many “I’s.”

she always looks so fucking dirty. no thanks.

Yeah, the fact that people keep insisting she’s such a talented writer is perplexing. She writes like any mediocre blogger.

Remember Cat Marnell’s essay about how abortion is bad and terrible and totally murdering a baby, and yes she’s had lots of them and will undoubtedly have more because she hates condoms and birth control makes her fat which makes it perfectly acceptable in her case, but they’re still horrible when anyone else has…

en serio... who cares about some privileged blondie who threw her life away to do some drugs? It’s pathetic how she got a $500,000 book advance when there are more talented writers working in day jobs and trying to send out unsolicited emails to publishers during their free time. I read her stuff on xoJane and she’s…

Yeah, other than being pretty and rich she sounds pretty much exactly like relatives of mine who struggled with addiction. Right down to the deep-seated belief in their own fascinating uniqueness. No one in the media wants to fuck my relatives that I’m aware of, though, so their stories don’t get quite as much…

Also INCREDIBLY tedious. That passage above is supposed to be an example of compelling writing? Oh, for Chrissake.

This person is really gross and also SUPER uninteresting. “Privileged white woman squanders potential multiple times and continues rebuilding burned bridges only to rinse and repeat yet again! She fooled you!” - like wow what an original, fascinating narrative. I do not understand the appeal or why media outlets keep…

Oooh! A story about a “glamorous” rich kid who does drugs! We’ve never been down this road before!

Drug memoirs are so boring. I can’t decide which I like less - new mom think-pieces or reminiscences by a junkie.

Trump should not be allowed to nominate a Supreme Court Justice in the last year of his presidency #MicDrop
