But you’re free to seek out all those talented people you speak of. And clubs are free to hire them. And who says you  have no other options? I’m confused by your comment. 

So you’re saying people can’t see any of those other comedians if Louis CK is still out there performing in clubs? That they’re being barred from performing? Or that if CK doesn’t perform, clubs will specifically seek out comedians who are women or POC?

I really like Markle’s style, it’s chic and elegant but not overly fussy or boring, like Kate Middleton’s. But I think she only half got it right with this outfit. It would have looked better with tights and winter shoes. The bare legs and suede slingbacks aren’t great, and look off for a rainy winter day. It would…

I think the targeting of books has been for the most part wildly exaggerated - and sometimes even made up - by her detractors, who for the most part haven’t done more than watch a couple of episodes of her show, if any. The show gives you only a very surface level understanding of her method, the folding, etc. But if…

But totally ordinary. I know so many women married to versions of that guy, including my sister. 

She’s not a marriage counselor. She’s providing a method for tidying up.

I watched Marie’s show and what I like is that despite her amazingly non-judgmental attitude towards the people on the show, and the show’s pretty straightforward editing, the people on the show do a pretty good job of letting the audience know who they are. The show doesn’t have to resort to TLC levels of…

The most profound criticism I’ve read on Tidying Up with Marie Kondo has centered around economic privilege. To have things to even consider dumping, you need to be able to afford frivolity.

Exactly. 

So you didn’t read Marie Kondo and you have no idea what you’re getting defensive about? 

It’s not that Kondo fans are defensive, it’s that the critics aren’t even reading her and deciding she said one thing or another, when it’s factually incorrect. She’s not telling people to throw away all their books, or setting a number. If you read her, you’ll quickly figure out that her method is really quite…

I don’t feel like I absorb information I read on a screen the same way I do if it’s on paper. Maybe it’s all in my head or it’s a generational thing.

I love this show and I don’t think a movie after this is too much. 

Yup. Reminds me of Tina Fey working in references to Bill Cosby on 3o Rock, years before the scandal finally blew up. 

I’m not surprised. And if you were somehow able to survey how many of those people with pink mixers were also avid cupcake bakers, I’m sure the venn diagram would show a huge overlap.

Dave & Buster’s similarly faced criticism in 2014 for a Tweet promoting Taco Tuesday that read: “‘I hate tacos,’ said no Juan ever #TacoTuesday #DaveAndBusters.” The tweet was later removed.

Either you’re trolling or people at your college are really dumb. 

A lot of those items were also on the menu at the cafeteria at the African American History and Culture Museum in DC. How is that offensive?

Of course you should. It’s delicious.

So you can only joke about people that aren’t real?
