I basically eat nothing but melted cheese on the weekend, if I’m not going out. Also of course booze. By which I mean I love this idea.

Why would it be difficult to show up for WOC, why would it need to be separate? Why can’t WOC have a voice and a place at the march? Why can’t racism be addressed, how does that take anything away from the issues of equality that face all women? It doesn’t, and it’s not a separate issue. Just show up for everyone,

I learned the hard way that, with cats, if they cannot figure out the problem with a quick exam and one round of blood work, then they’re likely never going to know what’s wrong. And, if they (by some miracle) DO figure out what’s wrong with all of that expensive work, chances are that it’s not treatable. Cats are

It’s sad how deep the socialization of girls and women to be embarrassed, polite even when rightfully upset about something, and go “oh dear, how guache to talk about that” goes. We’ve been so poisoned against ourselves that even when we’re right, our first instinct is to label any non doormat/wallflower behavior as

I don’t think her point is to denigrate the rest of the cast, but Shonda has made it pretty clear that the show’s over once Pompeo leaves. So in very real ways, the show doesn’t exist without her and her point was that she was going to embrace that and push for more money than just take what she got from ABC.

Technically, think of it this way.. She get’s $20M. Her agents, publicists, etc gets a slice too. She’s her own corporation. :)

Why can’t Ellen talk big like guys do? She’s brash, proud, and not afraid to talk about it. It probably doesn’t win her points in polite circles but it’s so refreshing to hear someone say, ‘I’m a boss.’

Missy said it best in “Work It”:

Can we just ban men on Jezebel? That would solve some problems.

This. This all day. So many women getting derailed by that nonsense.

It is fascinating to see all the male regulars around here posting that Pompeo is terribly gauche for hurting Dunaways feelings. So many knights in shining armor saving women from themselves! I mean don’t get me wrong, that comment probably stung Dunaway like a motherfucker, but it isn’t Pompeo who took the money out

But like, she’s clearly more important to the show than Dempsey was, which was the point.

Agreed, the most popular comments on this thread seem to be pearl clutching nonsense . She’s absolutely correct about the dynamics. She’s doing exactly what we should do if we ever want financial equity- transparency, advocacy and amplification. Organizations profit off of forced silence and its way of making it

True but when you’re financially secure you can afford to turn down anything that comes with too much bullshit.

Good for her and all that. But seriously, how is this show still ON??? I think I stopped watching after Denny or whatever his name was died and Lizzy cried forever.

Her interview was insanely real. Who gets to say that Disney is making too much money so she was going to get hers, and gets away with it! It’s incredible.  

Here’s an article (one of many) that completely blows that Weide piece to bits.

Her twitter (especially the dragging of Woody Allen) almost makes me want to reactivate my account.

Ahh...so then your entire first post about how you were just leaving something there and not saying he did not do anything is bullshit. Good to know.
