Omg Nicholas my heart

my sympathies. i can’t imagine having to deal with that on the regular. when i moved to the states, i was so excited to visit new york but once i did the subways yelled out nope so loud it was ridiculous.

Why not, I’m sure a lot of them voted for another traitor last november...

You say that as though owning an exotic animal is a human right. This is the kind of attitude that funds the horrifying illegal wildlife trade, poaching and exotic pet stores.

the suggestion that Tilikum did not die young

Long time lurker but I just had to comment on this. I feel exactly the same as you. And it feels like a knife in the back is how mainstream feminism has accepted porn as “cool” and “expressive” and if you don’t like it you’re a “prude”. I think blow jobs are disgusting, I think anal sex is disgusting and I don’t care…

There is perhaps no mammal that is less often in the mood for sex than the female giant panda.”

Me too. Put on face. Scrub face. Rinse Face. Face = clean and not irritated.... all without putting plastic beads into the environment for next zillion years.

You just don’t do that to a guy. Ever.

Yeah, I’m an X-er, raised mostly by my grandmother, and I know a LOT of people who were consistently cared for by their grandparents. My situation was partly born of neglect, but it is absolutely factual that Boomers expected their parents to pitch in on childcare, the way families had for generations. But THEY are…

You mean like how so many of them relied on their parents to take care of their children while they were working? You mean that whole issue? Also they get sympathy for having to work longer than they expected when they take responsibility for the shitty economy that was tanked when I graduated college in 2008.

I feel a bit like a garbage person because of it, but I just can’t empathize with complaints about the cost of raising children.

And the Nazis who gassed Jews during the Holocaust were just doing their job.

Wrong. If one of my customers says something racist, sexist, or sexually assaults a person in front of me I can and will refuse them service.

Yeah. This is hostile workplace territory, not an Amish Bus Driver situation.

This one. Yeah, everyone has aspects of their job they don’t like...but they usually don’t involve your face dancing and smiling on national, very public television supporting a politician you abhor..

There’s doing something you’d rather not do as part of your job, and then there’s being forced to perform as a cog in the misogyny/xenophobia/racism normalization machine of Trump. It’s not the same.

So that’s the distinction? Everyone else has a right to whistleblow their dissatisfaction as an employee about working for a divisive client but not if you’re a performer? Fuck that nonsense.

This. They’re not going to stop dancing because Trump is in the audience at Radio City. They’re unhappy to be used as a political prop honoring someone who has sexually assaulted and bragged he “can do whatever he likes” with people like them.

lolwtf, this has everything to do with someone’s political leanings - James Dolan’s.
