Exactly. There is judging people who purchase things or don’t take part in bake sales at all - which is ridiculous, like in this movie - and then there is judging the ones letting toddlers drink alcohol. The second one is perfectly sane.

Jesus Christ, give it a rest.

Thank you for that. I’ll be 39 weeks tomorrow and some of the comments... did not go over well with me. I’m not a perfect human being, I know I won’t be a perfect mom, and I’m not aiming to be. I just want to try my best... and I’m really hoping my best will include not letting a three year old drink multiple glasses…

I feel like on Jezebel, and a lot of other women-oriented sites, the stress over not judging mothers has gone so far that no one is comfortable criticizing a mother even when she does something genuinely shitty/bad. Of course we shouldn’t be judging mothers for little stupid things but I mean, there IS such a thing as…

I’m kind of surprised people are acting like this isn’t a big deal. I have a kid. I’m not perfect, but yeah that isn't okay.

Don’t. Go shopping!

OMG I just realized THAT’S why all the daughters of 80's kids are named Madison.

I read douche-Ghostbusters as Douche-busters and now can’t stop giggling.

THIS IS RUINING MY CHILDHOOD.

Fancy was lame, too. But the Weird Al version (“Handy”) is superb!

Also: “Notably, the project primarily features people of color and LGBT people in an effort to widen the scope of what representation for both groups can evolve to be—sooner rather than later—in mainstream media.”

This is just fucking patronizing. You don’t just stick POC and LGBTQ people in a video and suddenly it’s…

Can we please, please, please stop with the “shot for shot remake” bullshit? “HEY- REMEMBER THIS THING YOU LIKED? I’M GONNA DO IT TOO!!! LOOK!!! IT’S SOMETHING YOU ALREADY LIKE!! I’M ALL OUTTA IDEAS BUT THIS SHOULD GO VIRAL BECAUSE I’M REFERENCING POP CULTURE YOU ACTUALLY LIKE!”. This stuff needs to go into a garbage…

Notably, the project primarily features people of color and LGBT people in an effort to widen the scope of what representation for both groups can evolve to be—sooner rather than later—in mainstream media.

Don’t you think you ought to disclose that Lane Moore was once an editor at this site?

Yawn. I delibertly used the word twat. I like how it sounds. I’m an old school feminist who has marched more, started more fucking groups, helped more women to abortions, had abortions, brought home the mother fucking bacon, fried it up in a pan and then dumped the man. ... I’m a Vet of the US military who was part of…

Indeed - I see that now! Anyway, thanks for your excellent comments here :)

I hear that. I feel like the whole series is about that but I could’ve done much better drawing out that specific thread in my interview, you’re right.

I really like your labeling of this culture as heterosexual “outdoor sexual politics”—this thing where straight sexual & romantic culture(s) come to dominate most public spaces. It’s a concept I’ve tried to talk about, but I feel like this term really captures something important. Out of curiosity, is this a…

Oh, what’s like then - I mean early morning highline? Is it lovely? I might be a weird New Yorker because I actually love tourists - they are always so happy - but I’m not a big fan of all the foot traffic in otherwise pretty places :-(
