The image was too searing, I had to look it up

www.mediaite.com/media/podcas...
A Mediaite excerpt reads: "MILLER: It’s the only thing my husband eats. VANCE: With French fries or like, period? MILLER: Period. VANCE: Okay. Wow. I didn’t realize — MILLER: He’s only a mayonnaise guy."

Sorry what was that?
A NYT excerpt reads: "Ms. Johnson revealed that her husband 'eats almost everything except cranberry sauce, mayonnaise and bananas,' which could have been viewed as subtly undermining of Ms. Miller, who revealed on the debut episode of her podcast that Mr. Miller eats only mayonnaise. Literally." That last sentence is highlighted.

"In 2014, Hannibal Burress went after Bill Cosby for his criticism of young Black men, and said out loud what many knew but were afraid to say: that Cosby was a serial rapist. Journalism was limited in what it could say about Cosby, because it has rules. Law enforcement was limited in what it could do, because it has rules. Comedians don’t, and Burress’s takedown kickstarted Cosby’s ultimate downfall." "The Riyadh court jester parade won’t mean much to the careers of most of these comics. No one’s going to lose a Hollywood deal for movie or a show, and, with Saudi money in Hollywood, some might come home to new deals. All they lost is any credibility on lecturing anyone else on right and wrong ever again. But that’s a real loss—it’s the reason Donald Trump hates comedians so much. When they handed over their credibility to MBS, they handed it over here, too, and for free."

my lips are stuck to her seat i'll tell you what. also was literally just journaling this morning about how unassailable that record was, kismet.
an orange cat is in some ways a circle, but is also a chaos of limbs. she looks soft.

Just uh, dropping this here for no particular reason today, in case anyone has a tender spot that's getting hammered right about now. (From "Multiple Overlapping Truths: A Mixed Race Identity Development Workbook" by Lola Osunkoya of neitherboth.com )
