I was wondering if you had an imaginary translator for your imaginary minion interview. I am thinking too hard about this.

You get paid money to have fake conversations with Minions and I do that for free in my head. What is my life?
Clock them! These snowflake Jezebelians kill me.
Right? My first thought was “yup, totally agree with her.” My second though was “she’s gonna get so much shit for that.” And here we are, proving her point. There’s an entire thread in this comment section that’s just rehashing the old “why is she famous anyway” argument. Naturally, the responses vary from “because…
Ah, yes. I see the *cough*White*cough* feminists are already nitpicking her answers to death and reducing her to the men she’s fucked. Because she, of course, couldn’t provide anything else to the conversation but tits and ass. LOL why is she even speaking?! It would be amusing if it wasn’t so predictable.
Tryna catch me riding dirty...
What does the wage gap or support for working mothers have to do with the price of tea in a conversation about how victim-blaming and slut-shaming got her to see the continued relevance of feminism? You’re decontextualizing her quote so that you can justify giving her a hard time.
Yes, what you said.
Yeah! Also, to be fair to King, sometimes questions are worded that way not to say that it’s the interviewer’s belief, but that it’s just a concern people have and it gives the interviewee a chance to address it. There are plenty of people (I found out recently that includes my brother! So annoyed) that think there is…
That, and how hard is it to prove that’s what happened? “The train was knocking me around, it’s this crazy who think’s I’m getting off on it.” Just seems like hours of studying and bickering over footage, debating whether it looked like a grind or legitimate stumble.
File under: how was this not already a thing.
If I had to think about it, of the last five insults someone lobbed my way as a person of size... only one came from a male coward in a moving car screeching something about Taco Bell still being open as his friend drove him away and I walked up the road... and the other four came from fellow women. Just saying, women…
This is exactly what she was talking about. It’s not good enough that she’s championing feminism publicly, she dares to point out that women are often the biggest enforcers of gender roles and patriarchal values, so fuck her.
To be fair to King, he was an early promoter of feminism. He was right there reporting on a lot of the women’s rights movement in the 70’s. I mean his coverage of Victoria Woodhull’s Presidential campaign was groundbreaking stuff.
You know what would make me forgive GQ for this? If they shot an identical version with Taylor Kitsch straddling Colin Ferrell.
She just made their interview viral. I didn’t even know the eleventy billionth Wes Andersen movie was going to come out until Bobby posted this. Now people know! All publicity is good unless you’re Lindsay Lohan.
Her point about diversity in Hollywood is valid, but I don’t agree she should take it up with Wes Anderson. I always find it a bit disconcerting when people try to meddle in other people’s creative process. The problem isn’t that Wes Anderson doesn’t hire enough people of color — he’s gonna make the film he wants to…
The Life Aquatic had Seu Jorge, Waris Ahluwalia (who is FINE AS FUCK and in several Wes Anderson movies), and dozens of other non-white actors.
So are Jason Schwartzman and Adam Scott Wes Anderson’s PR people now? Because this seemed like a pretty shitty move on Whoopi’s part. Whatever you think of those two, they were there to promote a movie like actors do all the time. Whoopi decided to make it about herself in a situation where if the guys got…
