I used to work at a stable. You have to be pretty careful about which horses you put in a paddock together. The horses that pretty much get along fine with everyone? Geldings, AKA castrated males. There’s a lesson for politics in there somewhere.

Liberals need a positive, exciting reason to show up to the polls and unify the party.

I love Jodie Foster, and like Brooke Shields she somehow survived a horrible stage mother and all the temptations of 70s and 80s Hollywood to go onto to an ivy league school and great success as an actor and director. And Taxi Driver? The woman deserves all the respect.

I do not watch the program either, but my perception is that the majority of her audience are white cis gendered, middle aged women. Granted this is the audience they are shooting for during the daytime, but I don’t know a single gay person, including myself, that watch her, which ought to be her built in viewers. On…

I’d be really surprised if the Biden campaign named their VP pick before or after August. August 18th is the 100 year anniversary of the ratification of the 19th ammendment, which gave women the right to vote. I'm sure his campaign is aware of that. Connecting the VP pick with said anniversary feels like a certainty…

I would add “I’m not racist/sexist/homophobic/transphobic but” to the list.

Keeping it real is mostly used as a cop out for saying fucked up shit. Many examples in other languages too.

FANTASYYYY, MISS PIGGY

Fondant is the Devil’s cement.

Well yeah, that too. I feel like some writers aren’t able to calibrate their tone to funny snark and instead settle for sardonic bitterness.

Joan has always been weirdly bitter and salty about the mere existence of celebrities other people and it leaks into her writing all the time,

Joan has always been weirdly bitter and salty about the mere existence of celebrities and it leaks into her writing all the time, which is odd since she presumably knew this was a celebrity gossip site when she got hired.

Nice to see what people can do with edible play-doh. I did enjoy watching the hard work get aggressively cut, but man am I sick of the overuse of fondant, there’s very little difference between it and the extruded foam used to make actual Crocs.

One of my favorite memories is a birthday cake my mother made that looked like a bag of crumbs.

Well, it probably lets the impotent power mad fucks get off but I am quite sure we could do well without that.

Well, that and the few times you do get good, honest people that want to join, they are filtered out in the application process because they present a potential threat to the force.

Imagine the mind of the person - whether it be the band, their label rep, their lawyer, whoever - who looked at the situation, looked at the national discourse at the moment, thought reaaaaaaaaaaal hard about both and landed on “Mmm...Let’s sue the Black woman.”

Remarkably there is a third option — let’s call it The Crying Game option — where a virtually unknown androgynous cisgender actor is cast as a transgender character.

And renters!

I always wanted that giant feather pen they used. That thing would have been bad ass, both for writing checks at home and whapping my brother in the back of the head.
