Quiet, You trash!

Do you REALLY think drag is about gay men mocking women? That’s literally the opposite of drag. Instead of repeating this nonsense, why not take a breath, and read some of the posts discussing what drag means, and why it’s a powerful and subversive art form? Listen to what people are saying, maybe?

From Wikipedia:

I just found out the “Oryx and Crake”, “Year of the Flood,” “Maddaddam” trilogy is being developed for a TV series by Darren Aronofsky. I’m beyond excited. These are some of my absolute favorite novels.

The first time my partner’s mother met my family was cringe-worthy. My partner and I had been out very late the night before leaving for my mother’s house - a five hour drive. My partner sat in the backseat, while I drove, with his mother sitting next me. I was super hung-over, and white-knuckled it the whole way. By

I would suspect that they’ll handle the stereotype issue a bit more delicately than the original. If this is a “Red State” make-over show it might actually do some good. I remember the show with Scarlett and Santino from Project Runway where they went to very rural areas and helped straight women with fashion, and my

I once had a client who did not understand the concept of “go to Target and buy a wastebin.” I was a kitchen designer (for a very, very high-end cabinet manufacturer), and she wanted her bins hidden. I designed the cabinetry accordingly, had it manufactured and installed, and her only response was “what do I do with

Oh man, you are missing out! Salmon Benedict is amazing! I’m in Chicago, and we love our weekend brunch, so there are seriously a ton of variations on Eggs Benedict. Vegetarian? In the mood for benedict, but don’t like ham? Only eat turkey? No problem. I’ve had Benedict dishes that include kimchi, various seafood

This is definitely a thing that should happen!

I work in a very close suburb of Chicago. Like, I live in the city and it takes me half an hour to get to work - so really, really close. A co-worker of mine has never heard of cantaloupe. Another has never heard of quinoa, has no idea what it is, but still orders the quinoa salad for lunch occasionally. Another

Oh, it’s intentional. This is a ‘culture,’ not just random “accidentally rude” comments. People who throw shade have honed their craft. It’s an artform.

This is fantastic!

Ah, yes. The outrage. I think people like this actually hope their order comes out wrong so they get the satisfaction of being outraged.

That’s seriously the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard. Is it really “embarrassing” to ask for no onion? It’s not that unusual of a thing to do, is it? I do it all the time. What’s wrong with “may I have that without the green peppers?” If they say no, if the dish is prepared in advance with the green peppers, I’ll

Exactly. I’ve never once felt the need to tell a server “please, no X, I’m allergic” when I actually just don’t care for that item. It’s really not that hard to leave off the phrase “I’m allergic.” It’s like, just don’t be a dick.

Yes. I said it to someone else. Not you. You’re reaching.

I’m dismissing this comment to save you the embarrassment...

Yeah, I really never said “we are not a monolith” in this conversation. Don’t put words in my mouth.

I didn’t say “we are not a monolith.” I was reacting to your “gay-on-gay crime” nonsense. The implication of that is that this type of comedy (which, again, you apparently didn’t understand - they’re actually on your side. They’re pointing out how ridiculous the way straight people think gay people act is, but it

This is pretty ripe coming from someone whose first interaction with me was to call me “Mary.”

You get that the video is making fun of sterotypes it’s displaying, right? It’s illustrating just how ridiculous those stereotypes are. Perhaps you didn’t find it funny because you didn’t get the joke.
