Right. Kick out one of the top seeded, most visible and most marketable players tennis has ever seen? Also risk pissing off Japanese and American audiences? 

Exactly. If the press commitment is not draining, why would doing it place the other competitors at a disadvantage?

The good sis grossed 50+ million last year. She is paid up and unbothered. Her genius is in how she is pre-shaming the tennis officials into donating the fine to mental health charities. She is playing chess, while they are playing tic-tac-toe. 

Cannot nod vigorously enough. The reaction to the photo and her presence at the White House was over the top performative. It seemed like satire on our current obsession with “wholesome” stories. Like “Heartwarming! Black Dad died just so Black Girl could go to the White House”. Everyone invokes her for the most…

It’s impossible to get through to Gwen Stefani types when the sense of entitlement and the conviction in their goodness is so strong. She truly believes her rules were the “unifying” rules. Despite the evidence that all that “learning, sharing, and growing from each other” only served her. In her mind, she was just a…

Exactly. She’s done pretending to be sorry because she got caught. She’s ready to lean in all the way into the racism just to get paid. 

My heart goes out to his daughter Gianna, Darnella and the other kids who bore witness so that George Floyd could get some form of justice. Their lives are irrevocably changed. They should just be kids and teenagers untouched by trauma, unburdened by the responsibility of being icons of remembrance of George Floyd’s…

The teenage years are when the hero worship clears away and kids begin to get some clarity about either parents true qualities good and bad. It’s fine if the judge did not want them to testify in court. But he could have asked the children in chambers, just with the lawyers present without the parents.

Meh families help each other out with whatever professional insight they can offer all the time. By this standard everyone who’s had their lawyer or police brother advice them in legal trouble, or rental broker brother advice them when they are about to be rightfully evicted, or nurse brother advice them on medical…

Incredible how all the worst men have congregated here. Because internet clout is more important than digesting the horror of the accusations here.

Is he? No surprise there as his image is obviously carefully curated. 

Gates seems to think because he presents as being an unassuming nerd who’s image is being a benign philanthropist, he should be able to proposition women at work as long as he presents it as their choice. It’s peak willfully obtuse Nice Guy TM behavior. He knows damn well that he is their boss, old enough to be their…

Chrissy.

I feel justified in detesting this lady when she first became a thing. She’s always seemed like the girl who was the high school bully but tries to rewrite herself as the victim.

Resistance Democrats are so damn simple. The last five years has been an embarrassing whitewashing of dangerous politicians just to score points against Trump. 

We do indeed. 

Psaki does an excellent job. If one of the Black women floated for the job shut shit down the way she does, I wonder if members of the press corps would publicly “root” for her “warmth” or decide she is “abrasive” actually. 

Cheney seems to think she is battling Trumpism alone. But Trumpism is the entirety of the Republican Party. Trump is the natural conclusion of the anti-intellectualism and state sponsored fake news ushered in by Bush and her father. McCain and Palin entrenched it. Trump is simply benefiting from the ground work laid…

Same. Never read Bossypants or watched Kimmy whatever. But this is a valid statement on parental abuse and how we raise girls in our society to be meek punching bags to all kinds of abuse including verbal abuse. I don’t see it as putting the onus on the abused. Rather it is calling out shitbags like Colin Quinn and…

Something about the way this is all going down smells fishy. Hoping it doesn’t turn out to be that John Mulaney is a shitty person actually underneath that lovable tall child-man exterior.
