Mediocre white guys are (somehow) a precious resource.

I currently work with a white guy who is somewhat competent but mostly a dickhead. He’s super controlling when it comes to work and very condescending to women. He has no emotional intelligence whatsoever.

Same. I kept my married last name after divorce because it’s the same name as my three kids and the name I used professionally as an attorney for 10 years, it’s my name. 

That’s not surprising to me at all. One of my friends divorced her husband but kept his name so she would have the same last name as her kids. 

The Y chromosome also ties into the mythology of Kanye as some kind of mad genius (vs. Britney as the girlish puppet with no mind of her own).

I’m guessing it has to do with his Y chromosome.

I don’t have a legal answer but I’m guessing that because the Kardashians are independently wealthy they can just sequester Kanye in whatever mansion they want whereas Britney was/is generating the lifestyle for her conservators all by herself.

How does Britney Spears have to deal with a conservatorship but a clearly batshit crazy person like Kanye doesn’t?

Really, 2021 and you’re still not wise to the “A lot of people are saying” routine?  What the fuck did you do between 2016 and now, sleep?

To be honest, A) I don’t believe her for a minute and B) notice that whenever she’s confronted, it’s never “I miscommunicated” or “Oh wow I phrased that poorly!” It’s always “You misheard me.” “You took me out of context.”

Yeah, the whole Bialik thing is a never-ending cycle of her saying something incredibly dumb and dangerous, then offering a half-assed retraction that can still be read as an endorsement of the original position if you stare at it just right. I don’t get why people keep apologizing for her. Just stop it, she’s bad.

I think Bialik’s statements on vaccination and C sections read as disingenuous and carefully worded to allow her plausible deniability on views she somewhat or fully endorses. Granted that is a subjective take, but I don’t see the article as misrepresenting Bialik’s intent as much as seeing through it.

Her statements about vaccinating her children are some weird halfway point between scientific fact (vaccines save lives especially in infants who have underdeveloped immune systems) and Andrew Wakefield’s acolytes, which is a sweet spot if you’re carrying a doctorate and selling supplements.

You’re being disingenuous now.

Sorry, bro, you don’t get to basically say “some people believe in [horrifying eugenicist belief], though I personally do not agree” and act like you’re somehow squeaky clean there. By bringing up the eugenics, you obligate yourself to express some combination of words that amount to “and that’s some fucked up shit”…

If I happened to be a celebrity who kinda wanted to say something as outrageous as “I’m OK with non-natural birth babies dying”, I’d probably just forward on the fact that some people believe it, but I totally don’t!

You’re dishonest and kind of disgusting, frankly.

None of her opinions were ever misconstrued or taken out of context, she meant everything she said and wrote but then backtracked when she got shit for it

Burton has been a public figure for 40 years. It’s not impossible that he’s done something awful, but at this point do you really think that’s the case? 

Laura Coates was Alex’s choice. Of course, Mike Richards didn’t schedule her as a guest host since he tried to grab the job for himself.
