Shafted, you want to talk about shafted: Surya Bonaly was the one who got shafted.

I am butting in a bit. Nancy Kerrigan was given all her outfits by Vera Wang. She came from a comfy middle-class upbringing with very supportive parents and was portrayed as this elegant, delicate flower. Yuck. Her routines were boring and soulless. Tonya Harding had terrible parents, was forced to make her own…

Starred for Kerrigan-hate!

My favorite from Philly which had NO media coverage.

Checking in from Minneapolis -

As an Oregonian, I’m having a real maternal-instinct-type feeling about this dinosaur coming at Wyden. DON’T FUCKIN’ COME FOR US BRO, I will *destroy* you (in my best Beverly Leslie voice)

Ron Wyden is one of my two lovely senators. Roberts can go get fucked right in the fuckhole.

Couldn’t find a size 10-12 woman for the photo? This is my pet peeve. Why is it either thin or overweight are ok, but not average? Where are all the size 10 women?

Any reason why the header picture chosen is just of models? If I invented the toaster I’d love it to be a pic of ME on my obit and not a damn toaster! The woman was a human apart from her (great) invention.

I’m glad you showed a real tankini and not those BS ones that left two inches of space for all of one’s fat to fall out, thus entirely defeating the purpose. They also made it possible to easily go to the bathroom while wearing a swimsuit.

It’s only misogyny when it’s brown men telling women what to do.

until you actually have a child, which is like your heart being outside you, and that heart happens to be in a brown body

My particular favorite is that if Davis held out for or expressed a preference for adopting a white child, she would have also been raked over the coals for not being universal enough to see past her alleged white supremacy to adopt a non white child. So, she’s evil for adopting a black child without being woke…

Yeah I feel like we have an unfairly high level of what is acceptable here. I can’t figure out what she did wrong, caring more because it’s your child is human nature.

Now I, yet another white woman, shall heap scorn on the writer! It is a white privilege ouroboros!

It is needlessly harsh. There are lot of white parents who have children who are POC as a result of interracial relationships or adoption. And it makes sense that those parents are concerned for their child’s safety.

Waiting for someone to explain the snark re: Kristin Davis.
