yeah, but with a different background color, it is really hard to compare the two.

That’s the thing. Even if they filtered the photo to make her skin look slightly darker, it’s still in the range of what her skin might look like naturally, i.e. more or less sun exposure. Blackface is specifically terrible because it was used to dehumanize and ridicule black people. This is not that.

barf. that is all.

Would you have said that about Obama?

Oh: also, James Perse. A bit spendy, but I have a couple of JP tees that I’ve had for like 12 years and still going strong. I wore one yesterday that’s supima and just glorious in every way.

check out American Giant for tees/anything cotton. Their sweatpants are literal magic. Also Everlane has some good stuff at good prices too. I too am a natural fiber only kind of gal! Nice to meet you!

and to my eye, the “not in public” comment was probably just something she said because she was afraid to say “I’m not interested.”

what I mean by that is how they think about what salaries make sense. And the agents are sort of “in” on the paradigm as well. If you represent a leading man, you’ll expect him to get paid the most, if you represent a leading lady, you’ll think you’ve done a kickass job negotiating her to something approaching but…

I think there’s just this really rigid paradigm in place when it comes to pay structure in hollywood: leading man gets most, leading lady gets less, regardless of who is a bigger star or who has more screen time, or who the fans respond to the most. It’s just this like set in stone guideline that is bonkers in this…

except for the fact that the “elites” are often the ones who eschew medicine in favor of the bullshit. Like GP and Steve Jobs, e.g.

I’ve been called worse by my own mother. granted, she was abusive, but still.

You won’t be left with many pop stars to listen to if that’s your criteria.

and, benefit of the doubt, living amongst ppl who don’t share your accent influences the way you talk QUICK. I lost my midwestern accent within a year of attending college with almost no one from the midwest. They mocked my vowel sounds and by thanksgiving, my friends from home were all “why are you talking funny?” …

sssssseriously. I, for one, welcome our new alien overlords, so long as they’re from whatever planet Cate is from.

UGH I DIDN’T EVEN THINK ABOUT THAT. shit. she didn’t know how far along she was and she didn’t KNOW SHE WAS HAVING FUCKING TWINS. I can confidently say, as an atheist, this is NOT WHAT JESUS WOULD HAVE WANTED.

if you’re having twins you shouldn’t have a home birth. period. And I’m all for homebirth.

twist: they also hate freeloading welfare recipients. I guess they only like stay at home moms? But they tend to be women... Rats. I guess they hate everyone? Who isn’t them?

huh?

it’s cool that you feel that way. don’t have an abortion then. how you feel doesn’t really matter.

I wonder if he thinks, say, a dude who starts a bar fight and gets his nose broken should be “allowed” to have corrective rhinoplasty...
