“I didn’t have much experience of how to organize domesticity.”

Whipping his dick out was bad enough, but he also actively tried to ruin the careers of those women and anyone who tried to report on it as well. People don’t talk about that enough. Like so much fucking hand-wringing over a guy’s “ruined reputation” and literally nothing about the reps of all the women he crushed

“And I really can’t see the Garofalo of the early 90s - the alt comic feminist - allowing a comic of that generation to skate so easily if they’d done something like that to her.”

I hate the “think about their children” defense. Um, shouldn’t Louis CK/etc. be the ones thinking about their children when they do shit like this that’ll inevitably come out in public?

I get being someone’s friend. I really do. I get not wanting to knock that person publicly, and I don’t think a person should have to. But for heaven’s sake, come up with a better articulation of your position. Say, “I support women and victims of harassment and abuse. In the case of Louis C.K., he has been and

Look, I get standing up for a friend. But compare this to what Marc Maron said about C.K., also longtime friends. He had asked C.K. privately about the (at the time) rumors and Louis said they weren’t true.

Most people who are even able to lose weight by dieting, gain weight because they don’t have time to cook,

Is Kate Hudson also going to demonstrate how to utilize professional chefs, trainers, and nutritionists to buy extremely healthy and expensive food and who can develop and cook healthy recipes for you while using an extensive home gym while all your kids are being taken care of either at school or by nannies?

Can we also take a moment to acknowledge that getting healthy is something you should do for you and not your kids? Can women stop with the stupid identity martyrdom already? Her 14, 7, and two month old kids don’t give a crap if she keeps on those 20+ lbs postpartum, give me a break.

You’re splitting hairs in a way that makes no sense. Saying that misogynists consider women to be another kind of human who deserves less respect is denying us our humanity.

^THIS. And she nails that at the end of the monologue. The link is WORTH IT.

Absolutely true. Also applies to white people and racism.

Cool!

The subtlety is key. Poised, yet salty af. Yes Michelle. Serve. 

Jameela is correct, your liver is your detox.

Landmark Forum is a pyramid scheme cult that practices coercive and abusive tactics and every graduate I’ve ever known is completely intolerable. Citing them as a reason we should put stock in her point of view is a great way to make sure your opinion is dead on arrival.
