I’ve been assured that feminism means praising every woman with power regardless of what she does with that power. Feminism isn’t at all about the structure of power and the institutions that back them up, nu-uh.

My impression from the stories I’ve read is that this wasn’t a scam as much as McFarland could ‘fake it ‘til he made it’ while cutting corners like crazy and not putting anywhere as much work as he took on... maybe not a deliberate scam but effectively one.

My only issue with him is that he seems just okay. I don’t actively dislike him but I don’t see anything in him that justifies all the lead roles.

I remember when Sugar Smacks became Honey Smacks. I tried to convince my mom I could have it now because it wasn’t a sugar cereal anymore. Her response was, “Let’s look at the ingredients.” (We already knew the ingredients were listed in order of quantity so when sugar — not honey — was the first ingredient, she…

I don’t think forced celibacy creates abusers but I look at the way anti-sex conservatives talk about sexuality and I wonder if their view of sex creates abusers. They usually discuss sex as a control, that one side is trying to take it from someone who is supposed to protect their sexuality. They talk about virginity…

I hope they clean those sexbots better than a hospital surgery room. The lawsuits and controversy from sexbot transmitted diseases could be the death of the business.

LOL at the idea of saying ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’ with SNL.

SNL has never had an Asian-American male on its cast but has used the same Asian crew member — production designer Akira Yoshimura — playing Sulu in various Star Trek sketches since 1976 and basically making a joke about how they don’t have a man of East Asian descent to play Sulu. That’s sums up how bad the situation…

While these men definitely see women as lesser, they have a history of protecting men who abuse males. Dennis Hastert and Jerry Sandusky come quickly to mind while Jim Jordan looked the other way when the wrestling team tried to report him for molesting them.

IMO, him keeping a calendar like this for 36 years implies he was a shithead in high school who was so self-important he felt he should probably keep records for when he writes his memoirs of all his important accomplishments... and how it all started with his mischievous high school days. Ugh.

Vanity Fair is saying that the story about Rosenstein resigning or being fired was planted by Trump allies to try to push Kavanaugh out of the headlines.

There’s a part of me who really wants to #NotAllMen these assholes and their “Boys will be predators” worldview.

I couldn’t get past the pilot, which I only stuck through to get to the big twist. Everything in the pilot felt so ‘already done’ and done better. It was so cliched. The fat lady is insecure, the hunky actor feels like the audience loses interest in him as soon as he puts on his shirt, the adopted guy wants to find…

Nowadays, I watch American Vandal and see that Peter Maldonaldo is someone I’d totally crush on in college even tho he does nothing for me today.

I saw Simu Liu and Henry Golding in the same URL and clicked on the link so fast. Sigh and sigh.

That’s incredibly disappointing. In general, Asian-Americans tend to be shut out of romance stories (which is changing, thankfully) and it’s sad if the author saw the need for her fellow Asian-American women to be included in a romance but felt okay leaving the door shut behind her.

Ugh. I am again reminded that I have a pretty well-curated twitter. Then again, I’ve also lectured friends how they retweeted or linked to a shitty person who sounded momentarily reasonable just because they liked how the shitty person was dragging Trump.

I imagine so many story ideas being thrown out half-written when it becomes true.

He was also on Mad TV for two seasons, tho the only thing I can remember him being in was the one where he and Ike Barinholtz end up kissing every time their football team scores.

There was also a short moment when people were having, for example, Trump tweets in their timeline, it would say ‘Bob liked this tweet’ when Bob actually liked a tweet that quote-retweeted that DJT tweet to snark on it.
