I think it’s a little complicated because Roseanne Barr is, in fact, Jewish. She wasn’t, in her mind, being anti-semitic here; she was defending the Jews from George Soros. She has a very bizarre, fucked up relationship with race and identity, to say the least.

people keep saying in magazines that he’s an non-traditional, not-good-looking heart-throb. but he IS good-looking. dude is hot. I don’t even watch him in roles but every time he pops up I’m like “damnnn.” I think it’s coded racism/anti-semitism, frankly, because he looks distinctively Jewish (or “ethnic” at least).…

yeah, exactly. she’s been invested in idealized love, and this love is a little messier, and based on actual mutual interest, not one-way obsession. it’s sweet, and real, and imperfect. borderline personality disorder, as we learned in the last episodes, is marked by swinging from idealizing to hating. this...this is…

but this isn’t a debate. this is just straight up mocking and bullying. kids are smart, they can argue, but it doesn’t mean they deserve to be degraded, especially not when they’ve witnessed and experienced the most awful trauma.

lol it’s okay - i think we’ve all made that mistake before. so much of tone-reading is frame of mind. moving on!

So cringeworthy. It was a funny tangent.

LOL. I think QJ just meant their musicianship, not their songwriting skills, which was amaze. Nearly everyone can agree on that point. Clickbait, though, man, the gossip mill’s gotta have their clickbait.

YEP! Amazed. I have no idea what it’s like to have a dad who isn’t immediately on the defense when you call him out in an effort to get closer to honest connection : , (

DIT.TO. My father has never made a mistake in his life, including that time he cheated on my mother, which was not cheating - I’ve never heard him say the C word, ever, he’ll go to the grave without admitting any transgression - because something something he was unhappy. FINE DUDE BUT STILL OWN UP TO YOUR SHIT. Sigh.

Oh, you know dang well QJ was not talking about punk music. That’s a whole other story thurr

I cannot believe people are ragging on you for this. Postmodernism’s “it’s all just, like, your opinion man” applied to the arts has killed all discernment. How can we all not agree that mainstream music is far less crafted? I mean, how many motherfucking Brian Wilsons do you hear on the radio nowadays? The only truly…

LOL this isn’t about being high and might, it’s about respecting that QJ had some fair as f stuff to say about musicianship. Mainstream music from that era was absolutely more well crafted, not just well produced. That doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy pop music, just appreciating that this has changed and sorry for the…

YES! I’m a musician, most of my friends are musicians, and I posted on Facebook pretty much exactly this - who gives a fuck about the gossip, what he’s saying about the arc of the music industry is fucking real and true and I for one appreciate that candor about it. I think everyone in the music community who really…

It seems clear they were just going on a tangential joke.

For the sake of a joke? It was clearly a joke!

does...does this batshit man himself believe this stuff?

lol’d at polio onion asylum

and Milo and Otis!!!

Milo’s a total dipshit in every way. But...here’s a thinker. I’ve actually heard several gay men say just this. The older gay man/much younger dude seems to be a longstanding tradition (I mean centuries) with the idea that you’re “teaching” the younger one something, exposing them to the world, and it’s almost seen as…

I went to Smith when Christ was president and you wouldn’t believe how many “Fuck you, Carol Christ”s there were when the Republicans in their pearls invited a dude whose all M.O. that being gay was a “HOAX” and that was deemed acceptable. You know, all in the name of “intellectual debate!” (The guy came, it quickly…
