In my experience, as a dude, airplane spreading is non gendered. It’s more annoying than the places most manspreading would occur because there’s so little space to begin with.

You do realize this is France, right?

Uh...Cannes is a French film festival. It doesn’t represent “the industry”, as its notorious for being more up it’s own ass than any other festival in the world. Which is saying something.

I really would like Washington to be some cross of West Wing and Veep, knowing House of Cards is at the table too. Issa doing this reminds me of Veep and therefore it actually makes me hate him less.

Does no one else perceive Aziz as basically a college kid who think’s he can school you on subjects he just found out about? He wanted credit for finding out about feminism in his 30s. He clearly just started watching classic European movies.

Was Ghostbusters funny? Heard it was pretty average and that a billion dollar corporation was able to manipulate the press into telling everyone their feminist cards would be revoked if they didn’t pay to see a movie that should have cost 100 million less to make (taking its budget into, you know, the realm of

Dude...what liberals are demonizing weed? Fuck how many conservative people even these days?

I’ve been told by all my friends that I must be exaggerating my experience because they haven’t had it happen to them, but I “tripped” on weed and it was a fucking awful experience. I was thinking in shapes. Thought I was going to die. Was going to call my gf to take me to the hospital but was terrified of her

In fairness, everyone hates Ted Cruz and I’m sure Ted Cruz hates everyone.

This is Penn State. Maybe change that to their local banks and HS gym department.

Apparently Asia loves her. If it hasn’t already been translated I’m sure it will be soon.

I mean Coulter was invited by the College Republicans there. She didn’t plan it herself.

I mean, in their defense, they need a literal safe space. Not an emotional one.

You’re right but I doubt they’re worried about just dude bros. Feminism, if it went through a brief period of being in vogue (2010 to 2015?), has again become nauseating to many who just want to be told how to be a decent person and get on with it.

The mistake is to think that calling something feminist only loses “the men’s”. There was a brief period of time, probably in Jezebel’s infancy, when feminism was slightly less cult-like.

People are terrified they are Anne Hathaway when she won her Oscar. She was cringey. But generally speaking when you wonder why someone is loathed who seems bland or just very WHITE, it’s because white people are scared they’re like that person and it makes them uncomfortable.

There’s a Sartre quote about anti-semites that’s making the rounds due to the way it encapsulates the alt-right. And one of their head carnival barkers goes and shows how true it is.

Yeah who are these idiots? You really wonder who could internalize being called a “stunning beauty” and believe it. Clearly someone who is not that. It is Hoboken...

While this Post piece is written awfully (are we surprised?), it does tend to hold that remarkably beautiful people are more likely to be airheads. The merely beautiful have an uptick in personality.

Perhaps I misunderstand the relationship between host and show, but outside the monologue it’s fairly rare for a host to have much creative or editorial control over work. Why Tig throws in Louis not having talked to her for 18 months seems oddly personal. The implication being that she has problems with him outside
