This episode is from the season where Tony cheats on Carmela with at least three different women, not to mention killing at least one person. But yeah, we're supposed to agree with him.

It's been a while since I saw the show, but if that's the season he kills Joey Pants, then yeah I agree with him on that.

Had to look up this trash-pile (recognized the name as a UK lady, assumed it was a TERF), and fuckin' lol.

quote:

In 2012, Bindel condemned female bisexuality as a "fashionable trend" caused by "sexual hedonism", and broached the question of whether bisexuality even exists: "[B]isexuality is sold to heterosexual women as some type of recreational activity far from their 'natural home' of straight sex. It is seen as 'temporary lesbianism'"—having a girlfriend, for a straight woman, is like having "the latest Prada handbag".[93]

As a long-active lesbian feminist, she has felt uncomfortable with the inclusion of sexuality- and gender-variant communities into the expanding LGBT "rainbow alliance": "The mantra now at 'gay' meetings is a tongue-twisting LGBTQQI. It is all a bit of an unholy alliance. We have been put in a room together and told to play nicely.

I've been bi since before I even knew what sex was, but okay! :fuckoff: Guess when I had crushes on both boys and girls when I was eight, it was the equivalent of me wanting a shiny new toy away from my "natural home".

Also completely ignores the existence of bisexual boys/men. And while I don't agree that anyone is doing it, I can sorta understand the concept of straight women pretending to be bisexual as a sorta fashion statement or whatever, it's highly fetishized among men. This fetishization absolutely does not exist at such a high level among women for bisexual men.

Ah yes, it is much more likely that everyone is 100% on one side or the other of the Kinsey scale, than literally 1 person not be exactly homo- or heterosexual.

It was a picture of William Shatner in space holding a sign (I dunno what it originally said, but it was photoshopped to say "gently caress you George"), with the caption "Our elder T3RF is in space" with a follow up saying something like "Plus George Takei hates him, so even better."

When you played the game, did you do it in Korean, and pretend the losers were shot?

Or did you not? Because you, unlike these kids in 2021, were not inspired by extremely widespread memes and videos based around Netflix's most watched show ever, Squid Game?

I had an ex-friend back in 2013ish that basically was one. She claimed to hate men and to have never been in a consensual relationship with one (VERY untrue), and she would pull poo poo like "TRANS MEN ARE AN EXCEPTION THOUGH, I LOVE THEM, UWU!" Straight men were all predators with "mental blueprints" on how to best abuse a woman and get away with it.

...which was :ironicat:, coming from the person who tried to pressure and guilt our friend (a trans man who had just started taking hormones) into sleeping with her because "YOU'RE ON TESTOSTERONE NOW, THAT MEANS YOU WANT TO gently caress ALL WOMEN EVER. IT'S AN INSULT THAT YOU DON'T WANT TO gently caress ME, AM I UGLY?!."

I don't think there is a beef between them. Takei isn't a particular fan of Shatner, but they buried the hatchet a while ago according to Takei IIRC.

Also, wasn't the TERF stuff poo poo Shatner's daughter or something, who controls his twitter account, posted under his name? Like I doubt if interviewed about it Shatner has a particularly progressive view of trans people, but he's not going out of his way to say poo poo about it or poo poo on trans people.

It's always been wild to me to hear people go "I just don't understand how bi people exist, it's UNNATURAL. Pick a side!" when to me it's always been the complete opposite. There's so many attractive folks (men, women, and everything in-between and outside) that the fact that people can just "pick a side" is wild to me. :shrug:

I dunno about that, but he did give an interview where he basically said that being called "cis" was a slur.

Also the latest Takei v Shatner thing is this:

quote:

“He’s boldly going where other people have gone before,” Takei told Page Six when asked his thoughts on Shatner’s flight. “He’s a guinea pig, 90 years old and it’s important to find out what happens… So 90 years old is going to show a great deal more on the wear and tear on the human body, so he’ll be a good specimen to study. Although he’s not the fittest specimen of 90 years old, so he’ll be a specimen that’s unfit!”

The Takei thing is funny though.

Edit: loving lol, it's absolutely not Shatner writing these tweets, the twitter link mentions him flipping out the year before on twitter over the word "boomer." William Shatner was Silent Generation. He has 3 daughters that are on the tail end of the baby boom.

My favorite is "You're bi? Guess you're transphobic! You like men and women, BUT WHAT ABOUT TRANS PEOPLE?!" as if a trans woman or trans man is some freaky third option. :ironicat: Like in that lovely Big Mouth episode:

quote:

“No, bisexuality is so binary… Being pansexual means my sexual preference isn’t limited by gender identity…. It’s, like, some of you borings like tacos, and some of you like burritos. And if you’re bisexual, you like tacos and burritos… But I’m saying I like tacos and burritos, and I could be into a taco that was born a burrito, sure, ’kay, or a burrito that is transitioning into a taco. Comprende? And honey, anything else on the loving menu.”

Or James Charles:

quote:

Jeff asked James, "You're not even full gay?" to which James responded: "I mean no, there have been girls in the past that I have felt were really, really beautiful, there's also been like trans guys in the past that I was like really, really into for a moment."
