Good list!

I fucking live for this post! In no particular order:

Wow, gruesome but committed to the cause. I commend you.

This guy. I don't even know what to say. How does he do surgery with his eyes half-closed?

Truest and best use of this gif ever. Well done.

I drive by this house all the time and it's as ugly inside as I imagined.

Admittedly I'm not a fan but I think this is one of her worst songs! Different strokes, man.

This looks sort of compelling though I’m quite tired of “here’s a woman and here’s what she means to me.” Yawn.

This is the best comment I've read all day, lol.

Oh, I’m afraid it’s not nearly as interesting as you might hope. I suppose it’s that I’m beginning to find the notion of “appropriation” a bit too murky to be useful. If the use of a cultural symbol is fetishizing, for example, then that use is racist. Whether someone has the “right” to the symbol is subjective.

I think my opinion about this issue is evolving somewhat, but I will say this look is gauche as fuck, regardless.

Me too, when will we learn?

It's antichoice propaganda, you don't need to feel bad about anything unless you fell for it.
