Me too, which is what makes it so goddamn frustrating! It could be good, but it gets too caught up in its own sanctimony.

As a conservative who seems sane, can I ask you why this story seems to be taking off among right wingers who view it as some sort of proof that feminism is the devil? Yes, rape is an issue feminists care about deeply—but dang, everyone should care about it deeply. It should not be a political issue. And to see #tcot…

I believe this is the second time we've seen Tonkerbell, and I admit it, I laughed both times. There's something about Aidy—I don't necessarily find her all that funny but there's something in her delivery that kills me, no matter character she's playing. She's just got some sort of weird energy.

This sounds plausible, but there are a few things:

FUCK YES. I just did a fist pump. I'm even seeing from progressive, feminist people I follow on social media the idea that Jackie's story is somehow completely disproven, all because the date might be wrong, or the frat claims there was no party that night (even though I read that the governing body of the frat…

Ehhh, the last time I got a "value meal" at McDonalds (and not even a big mac but a quarter pounder with cheese) it came with a medium fry and drink and was over $7. Aside from not being that into fast food, it is one of the reasons I never go to McD's anymore—the prices there are actually getting kind of outrageous.

Since the show lost Artie Lange, it has been infinitely better in terms of fewer blatantly misogynistic "quips". Whenever they go on vacation and I hear old shows with Artie, I absolutely cringe, which is funny because I've been a fan for 20 years and I don't remember despising Artie when I listened the first time…

Don't beat yourself up. I initially identified with the argument that he DID have the power to stop it without fear of repercussions, possibly because I myself was victimized (not physically, a creep sat next to me in a nearly empty movie theater and jerked off/fondled himself for half the movie) a couple years ago…

Yes, or even just a more diverse cast! Her movies are definitely The Whitest, as much as I love them (I also drool for the interior design she uses in her sets).

I was just watching Save the Last Dance the other day and thinking about how fantastic she is in that movie and how I find her a little more "meh" since becoming a big star with Scandal.

Her set designers are my favorite. It's a whole world of "I want to go to there"...

This reminded me of the scene in Something New, where the black woman confronts her white boyfriend about what it's like for her being the only black lawyer at her law office. She says something about how the only time white people notice they're white is when they're in a roomful of black people. True.

As someone who shared the frame of mind of "seriously, why didn't he just break character??" all while thinking that the woman who violated him was absolutely a horrible person and the one at fault (and therefore feeling contradictory and assholish in my own head) those explanations helped me understand it a bit…

I've never been a huge Chris Rock fan, but a) this interview is fantastic, and I love pretty much everything he said, and b) I love, love, looove that he acknowledges Nora Ephron! "Edgy" comedian talking about how he was bummed he didn't get to do a NORA EPHRON movie, and how he wants to work with the current premiere…

Right? Let's just say I have a 15 year old cousin who wears things to family events that cause everyone's eyebrows to shoot right into orbit (we are talking actual bar floozy gear, not the demure and adorable Obama girl attire); but we just gossip to each other about it like family will do, not post about it on…

I still cackle thinking about my sister asking my parents why they were up so late "moving furniture" one night. Her bedroom was right below theirs. Poor parents.

Your screen name is the noise my brain made reading that troll's "arguments".

NOPE. Ever After is and always will be the best Cinderella. She was a feminist (she saves HERSELF from the creepy rapist at the end!) and a social justice crusader. Love.

I almost replied to him, then was like "wait" and clicked on his profile. Every single one of his last dozen comments or so were posting abject rape apologia on behalf of Cosby and then defending it by saying things like "I'm going to wait for the facts before I condemn anyone". Ummm most of this shit happened 30+…

also they do a good job of not alienating their audience, while raising the bar. they're pretty good allies in that way? ideal? probs not. but realistic.
