that doesn’t work most of the time.

MICHAEL BAY. He does this all the time as auditions: he made one female lead come over to his home and wash his car while he watched, and he drove another out into the dessert in skimpy clothes, and watched her walk and sweat in the heat. A few women have disclosed their experiences publicly.

I really want to be her friend and go for cocktails. She seems like an amazing, smart woman.

Nah. Fuck her, and fuck everyone facilitating her getting a bigger platform and money for her hateful rhetoric. She has been a shitty person for a long time and has gotten louder and prouder about it the past couple of years. Let’s not normalize her beliefs and validate her followers.

He was practically a cartoon of the genteel white racist southern lawyer from 1952. The kind that goes to the Baptist church every Sunday and is married with a family, but has a secret mistress and a second family on the poor side of town. Or perhaps a secret apartment where he meets with friends for licentious…

and a small one.

and an old one.

Preferably a white one

Look, if Kamala Harris wants to be taken seriously as a member of the US Senate, then she should have a penis. Seems pretty simple to me.

Good for me I was born in this era, having born at that time I would have been definitely wearing that, men have always said to me that “I have always something to say”.

Kamala Harris is the only Senator on the judiciary committee who’s an actual prosecutor. This seems to especially bother John McCain (who’s been sitting in and interrupting her despite NOT being a member of the committee).

It feels like this is the beginning of the 2020 presidential race, where people like Kamala Harris, if not Kamala Harris herself, will be running and we will once again be subjected to widespread sexism and misogyny (and if a candidate is a women of color, racism too) which then white men will gaslight us and deny it…

I’ve seen The Color Purple multiple times and even I forgot Steven Spielberg directed that one. It’s so closely associated with Whoopi Goldberg and Oprah Winfrey and blackness in general that the white director kinda gets forgotten, at least in the circles I’m in.

Guilt, and damage control. A light probably went off in their head and they went “Um, I think I just raped someone. But no! I would never do something like that! I just got a little excited. Yeah, that’s it...”

It establishes that you have friendly relations, therefore you are a slut and it wasn’t rape.

I was in HomeGoods the other day, shopping for cheap kitchen supplies. A man who appeared to be at least 20 years older than me approached me and made small talk (annoying, but I live in the MidWest so par for the course), then proceeded to follow me around the store as I awkwardly tried to ignore him without seeming…

But also, what if she did want to go home and have sex with him, and changed her mind when she saw his doll collection or something? The idea that if we start down a path with a man we can’t change our minds is fucking gross. If I start eating a pizza and hate it, do I need to keep going? Do you shove it into my mouth…

Wait, so his mom got married, lost her governor daddy’s famous last name, and then named her son “Dalton” just to eternally remind everyone her boy comes from an “important family?”

It is truly maddening how much energy women have to put into cradling men’s egos. Instead of saying “no” when we are uncomfortable and risking an escalation to violence, we have to come up with clever excuses so he doesn’t interpret it as a reflection of himself. It’s the environment, not that you’re an asshole. It’s…

I hope Baril’s dad can still enjoy his steak!
