I’m choosing to read this as a subtle callback to the ‘chocolate ice cream’ scene in Thank You For Smoking.

I was about to suggest maybe CDE or Tunde, but your argument is irrefutable.

It would also be helpful if bars and restaurants didn’t flat out lie about whether they are adults-oriented or can accommodate kids. When my kids were little, we’d call ahead to ask and 99% of the time we’d be told “oh sure, we can handle kids that age, they’re welcome!” and lo and behold, that was complete bullshit…

Yes, but you see, we also need to shit on parents for being cool with their kids hearing the F-word or being around adults. The important thing is that nice white people leave children at home with their mothers, where they belong, at all times.

Any time I need to feel like humanity isn’t doomed, I go watch a Biles video for a pick me up. She’s the GOAT.

They’re not “unable”. They’re able; they’re just unhappy that paying off loans early will cut into their profits.

There are ways to fight the good fight that don’t involve living in a place that hates you.

Bees are great, but hold off on that queen worship there. Being forced to do nothing but make babies, being run around forcibly to lose weight if your workers decide it’s time for a new home, and being ‘cooked’ to death by their bodies if they decide you’re over the hill do not seem like good life choices.

“Your case is not a slam dunk and therefore might impact my conviction rate”, is what he meant.

Baby onesies are worn by babies and sold through marketing depicting babies wearing them, but they’re marketed to and purchased by adults. Does that mean that babies are the “real” customers?

It’s not just “super obvious”, it’s well-documented. Susan Faludi wrote a whole thing on how their business model depended on selling expensive lingerie items to men. Even before Thirdlove and Fenty, they weren’t generating money off women buying underwear and regular bras. 

Victoria’s Secret made its money off men and catered to men. Did you miss their PG-13 beauty pageants or think their “Angels” were to bring in female customers? They presented the idea of a classy lingerie store where it was OK to shop for lingerie for your girlfriend or mistress, and those high-dollar items were…

Who was this “panel of experts”? All I could find was a statement from the hospital that four of the six panel members were Black, allegedly.

Sooner or later the other reps are going to figure out that they, too, are basically untouchable, and the “finding out” part of events will unfurl.

Exactly. The good news is, their clients are fucking idiots who can’t keep their mouths shut.

It’s not “practically incompetent”; it’s deliberate indifference. The bro code - oh sorry, ‘culture fit’ - is still rampant in Silicon Valley. Tech overlords have no mental conflict between patting themselves on the back for being ‘woke’ and ‘progressive’ at the same time as they help jerks like this one fail upward.

YES. Dude think’s he’s very witty.

The particulars of what he actually said are not only ugly, but extensive. And it’s hardly surprising that he’s applying a catch-22 that he wouldn’t dream of applying to his own self.

He later tried to handwave it by saying that he was just trying to highlight was a badass his girlfriend was. You know, the girlfriend whose genetic fitness he praised shortly before musing about whether she had deliberately snookered him into fatherhood with her “pliant thighs”.

The law is unworkable; the point of its existence is to frighten people with the threat of being sued by a nutjob if they help someone get an abortion.
