Yeah, no, I cannot compute feeling “ire” at ever seeing a little girl who looks like this or having the nerve to compare this hairstyle—which looks like the girl just got out of soccer practice for fuck’s sake—to minstrel imagery.

This is how a Black girl with 4C natural hair looks after a day of playing around outside and being carefree. All the kids look cute and the “after school” photoshoot theme is unique and adorable. You can lay your kid’s edges to the gawds at 8am and they’ll look like they went through a wind tunnel by 3pm, and that’s…

Just recast Sarah Chalke as Samantha.

Ah yes, Schrodinger's Queer: Gay men aren't real men, but trans women are the manliest men.

I was just looking at a photo of him a few minutes ago and wondered, “Does he kinda look like Chandler? Is that partially why I’m weirdly attracted to him?” Woof.

I always thought of Mark as the Chandler of the group, don't know why

u did mark dirty here but okay!!!

I mean I always had a soft spot for Travis because...

Louis CK and Aziz Ansari are literally mounting comebacks this year. Sarah Silverman, who got in trouble for blackface, literally still has a successful career.

I saw a documentary of some sort on her maybe 10 years ago? Rene was alive. And she was very much like this—a little kooky, a lot earnest, and all heart.

I have been performing comedy for 4 years. You are absolutely correct. In fact, when people I’m on stage with try to blame the audience someone is always quick to say “the audience is never the problem.” Obviously, nothing is absolute, but, seriously, read a room and adjust.

You can boil that down to “freedom of speech does not equal freedom from consequences.”  Also not a new concept.

I find it bizarre that anyone would have a problem with a culture in which people are held accountable for the things they say and do, and businesses/organizations choose to cut ties with people whose opinions or actions will hurt their reputation.

Yes, and I worked at B&N with a Starbuck’s next door/you could also walk to it from inside the store and a lot of those employees I would talk to every day said they kept working there because of that insurance and that(back then....so 15 or so years ago) it was actually good insurance.

Oh, sure, but my father is a bit of a rockstar in that community, so I don’t know wtf those guys were thinking coming to him with that nonsense. That’s some “well, I’m evil and greedy so everybody else must be evil and greedy” level of thinking on their part.

Thank goodness for your dad and his ethics, then.

According to this, try TWO hours:

If I have my numbers right, the money he “saved” by eliminating health benefits for 9000 people is equivalent to the money he makes in 6 hours.

Because it’s no-lose for Michaels. Whatever eventually happens with this hire, retain or fire, SNL is being covered all over the media just before the debut of the season. Like you said, over 30 years of experience. Lorne Michaels knew what he was doing.

You can joke about whatever the hell you want. If you want to make fun of people for their race, their sexual orientation, disability or trauma, then by all means do it. However when the public at large thinks your jokes are not funny that falls directly on you as a shitty comic.
