Makes you think about how many go unreported. Boyfriend once got punched in the face (he still has the scar on the bridge of his nose to show for it) on what is one of the most gay-friendly if not THE most gay-friendly street in Melbourne because he looked like “a fucken faggot”. What’s worse is that he’s not the only…

Go fuck yourself! John Waters abused animals in a film. That’s all I need to see. Get over it.

One thing you don’t see in the Olympic Gold! myth is the hardcore, backbreaking brutality of trying to achieve this level of physical prowess. The every single day workouts in the rain and cold, the scrambling to buy equipment, the battle royales among the supporters, the picking up cans by the side of the highway to…

I always felt bad for Tonya, though she did make some of her own “bad luck”. One of the (lesser) unfortunate outcomes of the whole Tonya/Nancy thing was that it sort of anointed Nancy as this sweet, smiling Ice Princess. She was not sweet. Not even one little bit.

I am so sad to hear that this isn’t a more understanding treatment of her story. I’m not exactly Team Tonya, but I’m definitely not Team Nancy and I think Tonya deserves a revisionist telling of her story that acknowledges her achievement in the face of serious disadvantage and abuse.

Oh god, and fucking hate the smug filmmaker trope of “did you enjoy the gratuitous and cheerfully-scored violence we spent thousands of hours and millions of dollars to show you? Well, surprise, YOURE THE REAL MONSTER FOR WATCHING IT !”

Generational note.

Ugh Geraldo is so gross, I’m sure he did this kind of shit daily. Someone should have bricked up Al Capone’s vault while he was still in it.

Yeah that door thing is some next level creep shit.

SAME - I was calming down in life. I was finally like “HEY LIFE IS GREAT!”

Eh the daily noise is just that, the daily noise.

Dude, the fact that there is not a designated staffer with the sole task of faking a heart attack every time the President starts his remarks with “I’m not going to read the prepared speech” is just a failure of leadership at this point.

It’s called “Whataboutism” and it’s a much used deflection tool in this administration.

Nope. Sorry. I’m old and this is all brand new.

It’s not as if she asked to be anything more than a trophy wife waiting for her aging husband to just die already.

Well put. She has some vague anti-cyber bullying campaign she has adopted as her “cause” - which she barely talks about. Several anti-bullying organizations have reached out to her to get her on board and be more vocal but she turns them down.

YES! And I doubt she wanted Melania pushing the birther racist issue! MIchelle Obama was fantastic at it and was also frank how happy she is not to be tied to it anymore. I can’t imagine how jarring it must be for independent women to have their identities defined by their husband’s career!

Her reason for shirking the job and your reasons why she should do so are NOT THE SAME.

“TWO! Two women in red! Ahaha!”

Hold on, let me go find one...
