I’m not sure how we stop playing as long as the supposed objective media is complicit in giving this narrative “equal time.”

Yes, quite. Are you somehow implying the imaginary line they cross is hurt in this action?

As long as the attacks on women and minorities continue, I’m not going to be civil about anything.

next time this happens to me I’m pulling a Dorinda Medley “CLIP!” moment (and I’m sorry if you don’t get this reference) and yelling “STAND.POINT.THEORY!” to these fuckers.

I am dealing with this and I don’t know how to handle it. Men who I thought were halfway decent have said some of the dumbest things and then gotten mad and doubled down when I pointed out why it’s a problem. How am I supposed to live with these beings when they all, ALL are this way?

i’ve had so many conversations with men since last fall about men’s toxic behavior only to be met with more toxic masculinity (most unintentional... let’s hope, but there regardless) from the men in my life that i trust and love. this fucks me up.

Yeah, nothing drops panties in southern California than loudly proclaiming you’re an ICE agent...

I’ve been called sexist for this stance in the past, but I will never submit myself to a male GYN/OBGYN for an exam or treatment. These fuckers have been programmed from birth to feel entitled to our bodies. There’s no way in hell I will put my body in their hands while I’m most vulnerable.

I’m totally ok with banning…

FWIW I agree with you. Like LET US HAVE THIS ONE SPACE where I don’t have to pretend it’s cute or clever. I’m not offended and I think Masshole James is generally A Good Poster but yeah. I’m just tired.

.............this is why, though mentally I understand male gynecologists overall are professional and not utter cretins, I like to go to female doctors. And this is also why, whenever I have gone to a male doctor in my excellent HMO, they’ve ALWAYS had a female chaperone in the room during the examination.

Again, all the stars. I really don’t see what the big problem is.

Solidarity and internet hugs. ❤

Amen. This American princess is too relatable. My family is so toxic and my husband’s isn’t much better so we decided to just elope and avoid these issues entirely. Hasn’t stopped my mom from telling everyone about how they weren’t invited and conveniently omitting that nobody was invited. I’m certain that if I had…

Also, separate sick days from vacation days. People will come to work sick, because they don’t want to tap into their PTO.

And first he was mocking about being president and here we are.

Went on a 2+ month road trip; NYC to Mexico. Listened to pretty much every episode of “You Must...” Except the Manson one; while listening to the first episode in that series, our driveshaft fell off. I got too spooked to finish that one. Her stuff is great. I learned a lot. And, how she weaves these lives together is…

I wonder if the script was inspired by Karina Longworth’s excellent podcast, You Must Remember This. She did a great series on Jean Seborg and Jane Fonda. Highly recommend....

Exactly. They are the most mediocre people I’ve ever met. Middle-manager types who think the letters after their names are indisputable facts that they’re important.
