Watch any cooking reality show older than 3-4 years and you’ll see a lot of creepy chefs being childish about attractive women. Definitely one of those industries where women have had to put up with shit.Things are changing though and that’s good. Seems like a simple apologize and move on moment.
QuoteDamn, this is like the 5th thing that resurfaced from 2010 with a bad look. What happened that year that made everyone become an ass?

I once saw a nipslip from Rachel Ray. I was legit shook that she would allow herself to be objectified like that. I'm almost in tears just thinking about it.

And I’m pretty sure she wasn’t joking either. Okay, so apparently there’s a thing called ‘shame culture’ in which you gain ‘status’ by alerting the tribe of something someone said or did that’s presently incorrect. It doesn’t matter if the incorrect thing wasn’t seen as being incorrect when it actually happened - it only matters that it’s seen as being incorrect now.Apparently, you ‘score points’ if you come down hard on the person’s behaviour (it’s a way of signalling to the tribe that you’re one of ‘the good guys’). If you’re the one highlighting the bad behaviour then apparently you score major points, or at least get ‘a lift’ from seeing so many people agreeing with you.The person who told me about this, btw, has happily led me down the garden path about five thousand times now, but like I said above, in this case I think she was being serious. .

Because of this environment I would develop PTSD by August

Can we please have a welfare check on Frank O'Connor?
What. The. Fuck. He believes EMAIL takes up hard drive space??
Because society gave less of a shit about stuff like that then, we weren't in middle of a surge of women coming forward to say how prevalent that sort of thing was, and the women that were there were few ready to listen. It didn't make it right, it wasn't right to do at the time. Things change, and now we're in a time where we're more willing to listen to women and hold people accountable for their actions.

Oh jesus here comes tweedle dee and tweedle dumb. "We democrats also agree we need stronger boarder security". I know youre only pandering to moderates but seriously fuck off. We shouldn't be entertaining this dog whistling at all.
You'd think they would have learned
I'm not going to respond to people who didn't read my post correctly. Saying we have a boarder problem at all is catering to racist moderate voters and they could refute everything he said without appearing to give credence to the made up boarder problem.

This sounds like it was written by a 15 year old Nazi who never read a single newspaper....I thought this was going to be a trainwreck, but not a low energy, definitely counterproductive PigPen fly-orbit like this. Here's what I think:1. He or an idiot like Miller suggested an address from the Oval Office. A know-nothing got him hot and excited for it. They immediately comitted to the Oval Office network plan.2. They originally planned to do something huge like an emergency order or some sort of presidential power usage but they didn't know what, exactly.3. All their big ideas were dumb as shit and they got nervous, or were advised not to by Mitch etc. and we got a muted mumbling repeat of the talking points with some new extra lies and really bad presentation.If I was one of his Nazi cohorts I'd be sweatin' because when Trump reads the response to this on Twitter, or watches the TV follow ups, he's going to be PISSED."I asked for a declaration of war on mexico and you made me look dumb!! <throws shoe>Well, at least it was mercifully short, but my god WTF was the point of it? It made him look clipped and robotic to his fans. He made it 100% political and told about 100 lies. Another own goal with zero benefit and lots and lots of negatives. I think some GOP folks waiting for something with teeth or meat are just going to have to concede it's not coming and that they may have to cross the aisle and vote. Just trash.Well, like about a hundred other things in the last week, if anyone else had just delivered that speech, their closest allies would be planning their exit strategy, the 25th ammendment and a nationwide apology for the morning news cycle. So it's absolutely the right gif, but if we could time travel to three, eight or twelve years ago and have the sitting president do that speech, it would have been a presidential and potentially constitutional crisis.So if nothing else, it's a good reminder of how gaslit we are as a nation - all the way through our institutions - and that the GOP enabled, permitted, capitualted to and normalized all this, and never once paused or slowed their existential apoplectic criticism of tan suits and dance gifs. Now what I would add to this obvious rehash of what we've all been saying nonstop since the start (I'd argue that post-southern strategy, the start of the complete abdication of facts by the media writ large, is maybe like Colin Powell's silly easily disprovable vial of "yellowcake uranium") is another obvious rehash, which is that the media (and that has to include big social media) is the only vehicle by which it COULD have been normalized, and their already tattered reputation as the fourth estate - and maybe one of the few that could be gradually fixed through pressure and even legislation in the future. The media is complicit in this through action, inaction and a venal business model that does not financially benefit from veracity. If there's ever been fresh proof of that, it's what the major networks enabled today and the pure nothing they're going to do to ammend it.
