So, here’s the thing.

Rural and exurban white men, I believe you mean. Yeah, there are some women crazies, but for the most part it’s men.

damn it, I was standing there staring at “thermosas”, thinking, “is it a feminist latina thing? Did I miss something?”

Okay. Go to hell.

Is she gonna stop looking like dead-soul Butterick models anytime soon? Because she’s freaking me right the fuck out.

I don’t think you understand any too well how universities work. You’re theorizing from “logic”, yes? Idealized universities?

Name of the guidance counselor, pls.

Old men have always believed they’re more important than living, breathing children.

I just...I don’t get this. Have people not seen a naked, reasonably healthy/fit person before? Because that’s pretty much what an ass looks like.

My kid’s begun using that “I am telling complete asshole lies on purpose to get what I want” strategy to disrupt sensible conversation, and thinks it’s hilarious. I think maybe I should start punishing her for it.

Mostly I’m hoping my daughter takes up with a nice, smart, sensible young woman.

I have trouble seeing much else work out, come to think of it. She really doesn’t take much shit from anyone, and she doesn’t have a lot of patience for people who want to be told what to do all the time, either. And she’s fearsomely…

I just realized something. This “radfem” thing. Every time I hear it, I think, What a bizarre label, I don’t wear overalls. But they don’t use the label because they know anything about the history of feminism, it’s because they want to paint feminists as crazy dangerous wackos.

Ohhh.

That’s the most lucid formulation of the problem I’ve ever seen.

See, this. This is why, once the ocean comes and reclaims New York, I’ll just have to go somewhere else, because what you’ve just presented is America. Where will I go? No fucking idea. I have too big a mouth for Canada unless Montréal, and that’ll be a big swamp too. I can’t with the Brit meanness. France? Australia?…

HOW? HOW DO YOU DO THIS?
I feel like I used to know when I was eight, and the knowledge has evaporated along with any memory of how to iron like someone who knows how to iron.

$15M is probably a significant chunk of that district’s budget for the year. I have zero sympathy for asshole men who decide that the immediate solution to violation and disrespect is to pants-down and engage in dickmeasuring contests.

Should the principal, the cop, and maybe a few others lose their jobs? Probably. Do…

Well, that’s nice. So when are the feds and the Ivys and giant corporations going to take notice of...oh wait...not a boy...doesn’t look like the usual Silicon Valley suspect...a black girl named Kiera Wilmot, who was arrested and charged with a felony for making a science experiment on the playground? They all still…

This appears to be true in all women’s sports. Part of the problem is that wealthy men who recognize the problem are not willing to go to the men who’re running the men’s sport and make a federal case of it, and risk losing friends.

Summary:

Dear selfish boomer mom:

Your kid’s life is not about you. You’re not paying tuition because you’re buying friendship; you’re paying tuition because you want her to have the best chances in life. Get off her back and let her grow up, and don’t be a flouncy adolescent yourself when you do that. If you two…

I had to stop watching. She gives no fucks in part because she’s been seriously mentally ill for a very long time, and that’s what you were seeing, and the host person was trying to yuk it up like that’s just the kickiest thing ever.
