Above all, listen to women. Believe the victims. Stand up with the oppressed against the oppressors.

No love of Jack Donaghy and Liz Lemon?

Well I mean, she’s the youngest *now*.

At the beginning, Jeff and Britta fit together as they were older, normal, and more worldly ones. They were the Den Father and Den Mother of the group. Even towards the end, after the writers did all sorts of bad things to Britta,, they still had that connection. In sum, Jeff and Annie were the odder couple.

Not “as bond” just that when you’re given as assignment, you work within the constraints of the assignment. In this case, the “Snyder Cut” involved substantial extra, new material and took four hours to tell a story when originally he would have had 2.5 or so tops. Reviews saying “this is the movie we should have…

I say this with full acknowledgement that my view is about the least relevant one there is, because I’m not interested in either version of this film (but, because I’ve been bludgeoned by its recent coverage, I’m now weirdly invested in the way people become invested in shit reality TV). But I can’t help thinking:

…

When I was in high school, I had a teacher who told us: “If I give you a three page writing assignment, I’m going to knock off a letter grade for every page over three. After five, I stop reading and if you haven’t said what you need to say by then, you get an ‘F’.”

Replying to your later comments (mostly) here:
I’m a queer, aro/ace, intersex, white, trans woman from NW Indiana/Chicago who comes from familial cultures of insularity and suspicion of others - 1/3 (adoptive step-father) of whom were of original colonial and Indigenous backgrounds, and the other 2/3 were “fresh…

On black-ish, they did mention recently they were in Sherman Oaks. She is a doctor and he’s an LA advertising executive, so I think they could live quite well. However, Dre’s clothing budget is at least 10x my rent.

As a Black woman, I gotta disagree with this one. Locking down accounts and removing old racist/sexist/homophobic tweets is pretty much Employability 101 at this point. Not tweeting them in the first place is even better. Nearly all recruiters for high-profile jobs check social media. Parsing out “ignorant” vs.…

She’s 10 years removed from offensive tweets she made....when she was 17. Which means she’s a 27 year old who is making a HUGE leap up from political reporter at Axios to, in your words, a high profile EIC job. As she acknowledged, because of those tweets she would have had a lot of work to do to earn trust...maybe…

If the tweets were from a couple years ago or while she was already in the workforce that’s one thing. But when the ignorance was from a person’s teenage years, I’d hope folks would be open to giving her a chance to show her growth in the past ten years.

It’s so telling who we allow to “grow” and “learn” from past shitty behavior and who we don’t. This WOC made some shitty dumb tweets when she was a teenager, but Ted Danson did a literal minstrel show as an adult and we still love him on The Good Place. Kelly Osbourne implied the only people who clean toilets for a…

I’ll be honest, it’s really difficult to view this as some feel-good moment or victory worthy of celebration. Essentially someone lost their job for tweets they made ten years ago when they 17 years old? And I’m not going to defend those tweets as they were idiotic, but this punishment feels wildly overt considering…

Say it with me people: She.Was.17.

I’m curious what is your statute of limitations on teens behaving stupidly? Yeah McCammond was wrong but does that mean she should never be hired by any company ever? Pretty high sentence I think. No one is without sin or fault. And most of us did and said stupid things as a teen. Luckily that was pre-social media for…

One of the reasons I’m most thankful to be the age I am is that there’s zero chance of something dumb I wrote online as a teenager coming back to haunt me.

She said twentysomething, not twenty. There could be a big difference.

No, that was the kind of girl I wanted to risk getting pregnant with.

Pregnant?
