My issue with BDS is it singles out Israel when there are countries that are way worse, like Saudi Arabia, but no one is calling to boycott them or wondering if the gas they just filled their car with came from there. It’s hypocritical at best and at worst that selectiveness could be seen as antisemitic, which there’s

Yeah, my reaction to this was ‘ha! suckers!’.

Then there must be thousands of desperate women around BoJo because she’s certainly not the first. Little BoJo gets around. A lot. 

This!

I also think producers have been looking for an excuse to fire her for ages and when this came along, they took it.

This will probably get me killed here but while I don’t believe in a blanket ban because that would be ridiculous, on a case by case basis I do think that if someone haven’t processed their trauma sufficiently, it’s probably not a good idea that they write about topics directly related to their trauma (in this case

I don’t really care about the problematic stuff if the rest of the show still has something to offer, because I don’t expect shows to be retroactively in line with what’s acceptable today. The reason the Gilmore Girls doesn’t hold up for me is the humour. It’s so specific to a particular moment in TV time, watching it

You have zero boundaries in your teens and early 20s. I had friends start having sex right next to me once - there were about 6 of us camping and yeah, one couple went at it when they thought the rest of us were asleep. And that’s just one of many similar incidents.

PTSD?

This. She means well, she just has kind of an obnoxious personality (and a massive thirst for attention, but that’s pretty much a given in that world).

a bit insufferable

Seriously. Unless it was edited out of the letter, I can’t believe that with her sister’s history of an ED, she’s not the least bit concerned that her asshole husband might fuck up their daughter’s relationship with food and her body? 

Aw, you must be new here! That’s the standard Jezebel MO. 

Also, if she did say ‘pass’ and didn’t talk about Allen, you bet your ass she’d be getting dragged for not wanting to go on the record.

Oh hey, I remember you! And the mental note I made never to engage in a back and forth with you because I’m sorry to say you definitely fit into the category I was describing! 

Like I said, I wouldn’t tweet or even talk about this IRL, so I don’t know why you think this is something I feel strongly about? Because I don’t, so you can chill. But since we’re here discussing trivial shit like Wen’s tweet and I’m procrastinating instead of finishing an assignment, well yeah I do think this is

Except I don’t give a shit that KK gets scammed but I do give a shit about public health. And I say that as a foreigner who wasn’t raised in the US but lives here and is kind of in a constant state of shock over how unhealthy food is here and also by the levels of poverty I see in what is basically the richest country

Given the amounts of sugar and processed foods people consume in this country (and yes, I am aware that much of it due to poverty and lack of access to healthy foods), the “gluttonous scenario” doesn’t really seem all that far-fetched, don’t you think?

This. Krispy Kreme should have made it a one time offer, though I don’t see how they could have enforced it. 

No, she’s not the only reason people hate progressives. She’s just one of the many thousands of very vocal, very smug self-righteous progressive assholes that makes it very hard for me to remember that I’m on the left because of the principles and ideas I believe in and that I have to continue to believe in those
