Man I went into reading this thinking I knew exactly how it was going to go and I was wrong. The questions were good questions that got good answers. I don’t 100% support Cooks agenda but I understand and respect it. She doesn’t mind that fan service exists and doesn’t want it banned or to shun people who like it, she…

So, in a few words, you really didn’t read this.

I can recall a couple of headlines on this site recently that seemed designed to feed into suspicions about the robbery. One of them highlighted that no security footage was found of the attack when the article itself noted that security cameras were not placed well and it was easy to evade them.

I have judged the ever loving fuck out of the commenters here who were nasty about Kim’s robbing. Victim blaming is a ugly thing.

Hey, great comment. My reply is that no anime should get kudos for simply giving female characters personalities. That is a low bar to clear, my friend. Just because a personality and plot are wrapped around T&A doesn’t make it less infuriating that T&A are the central subjects of this show. Also, many of these female…

didn’t Perez get famous by poorly doodling jizz and coke on celebrity pictures, particularly women? Not terribly upset at the prospect of Angelina suing him. He sounds particularly man-babyish in that message.

Taking down Perez Hilton, a known cockroach, makes her the hero we need.

Here’s what’s frustrating about this: We already knew he was a racist. He’s already dehumanized black americans, latino americans, muslim americans. He’s a racist.

If you don’t want your daughter to hear the word “pussy” maybe don’t let her watch the segment where you’re defending Donald Trump bragging about grabbing women by the pussy. That’s like going on Twitter on a Sunday night and complaining about Game of Thrones spoilers.

And everyone who now comes and says “That’s how the gaming industry works, you can’t do it any other way” and the other usual bullshit, please be reminded of this study published last year in The Lancet

I mean, she’s given interviews before that made it pretty clear that she was a woman, so I don’t think that “is Elena Ferrante really a man?” was a question that interested the guy who doxxed her.

No. Artists create art for people to enjoy. Beyond that they don’t owe people shit.

Bullshit.

Maybe that’s the only time he can get his phone back from his aides? Serious question: how much of his constant attacks on Machado are a heavy handed attempt to frighten other women who have also been mistreated by him from going public?

Agreed. If people actually READ the statement the bookstore put out, it’s totally fucking reasonable and something I’d think most people here would agree with. Jez cherry-picked some hot takes without context and put a shitty mocking tang on the whole thing (and most of the comments reflect that attitude). Like, the…

I can’t imagine that their single-day profits are greater than the location-use fee. And if they are: renegotiate the location fee. It’s not like they were being forced into letting them use the location.

But why are people showing up, to actually buy books or say they visited the feminist bookstore?

Like, I can see the inherent humor in it, but then again shouldn’t we be a bit concerned that Portlandia has created an environment where sincere-if overbearing-feminism is treated as a joke? I know, there are folks who take it too far, but at the same time as another poster mentioned, good humor punches up, and I…

Fred Armisen is a misognystic asshole who I wish would go away forever. And the fact that he is so closely associated with my once fine city is a thorn in my side.

For the most part, I don’t think it’s usually a very funny sketch. It’s had its moments, but the weakest parts of the show do tend to involve putting Armisen in drag.
