Where are you at that SNAP isn’t already on EBT cards?

My President O’Malley fanfic involved him performing This Land Is Your Land at his inauguration, so this is perfect.

They never dated. They did a publicity tour for The East. They posted a picture of themselves hanging out in a SF park and (dumb) people were like, OMG DATING and they were like, LOL NOT DATING. They obviously got along really well on the red carpet, but the vibe was totally platonic.

Chalamet’s performance during the credit sequence is breathtaking. And I feel like the only person in the world who desperately wants the sound mixing and editing teams nominated for Oscars. You could watch the movie blindfolded and still have a rich sense of what’s onscreen.

I can easily see how someone would read that clause and think it means “don’t talk trash about working with Woody Allen.” It’s true the clause doesn’t prevent him from opining about Dylan Farrow or calling Allen a sex offender, but the specific questions he’s being asked are about his working with Allen on this

He’s considered a sure bet to be nominated for his performance in Call Me By Your Name. He’s extremely talented.

I don’t think she’s dismissing the idea that Ansari behaved like an asshole. She’s alarmed by the normalizing of Grace’s passive response. I understand why Grace responded the way she did, but I’m deeply discomforted by the idea that we shouldn’t encourage women to be more assertive. We can both hold men accountable

Criticism only just causes them to become defensive and that doesn’t necessary make things better in the long run.

It’s not a mystery to me why it sounds like victim blaming. The mystery is how do we have a conversation about mitigating harm. Who benefits from this ironic impasse?

Maybe it’s petty, but I want our crowd penis to be bigger than Trump’s inauguration crowd penis ;)

Trying to remind someone that they have not lost all their power vs. Get Over It seems to be a major barrier in cross-generational communication at the moment. The Bari Weiss piece in the NYT was a lot of “you have power!!” and was overwhelmingly received by younger women as “Get over it.” Bari Weiss is watching a

Jason Whitlock?

This is such a strange paragraph:

I think Jezebel’s critique is unfortunate at best and disturbing at worst. Reading between the lines, Julianne seems to be saying that sophisticated reporters know how to edit these stories for the subject’s own good.

My response to you was generously assuming you did grasp my point and interpreting your comment consistent with that understanding (I was, in fact, pointing out ways in which olivecolored is buying into a toxic culture). It feels like a troll to you because far from grasping my point, you illustrated it (behold, the

Are you saying that olivecolored is a woman buying into toxic culture?

It’s a searing takedown of Babe and an assurance that Jezebel would’ve handled the situation better.

I agreed with a lot of what you said. I quoted the part I thought was not only plainly wrong but counter-productive. I used many words to explain why. I even chose gentle words!

No woman has ever claimed she had to “read a guy’s mind” to know if he wanted to hook up.

They moved those two to a different nursery when they wouldn’t share their toys with George.
