Kat and Phoebe take on a series of pendulous topics: the “disgusting” appropriation of serial killer culture, Adam Levine’s text messages, and the Canadian shop teacher who gives new meaning to the term “rubber baby buggy bumpers.” Links: Phoebe on the boobs:
I got sent home, investigated and found guilty of “exposing minors to sexually explicit material“ because I didn’t have my Instagram settings set to private, and my receiving of images of, for example, a yoga teacher doing a handstand in a bikini because her new murder mystery was out, were readily available to any students who had creeped my account, which was not in my name. Others have gotten in major trouble for having a friend post a group picture of a bunch them at the beach in bathing suits. Or for having someone else post a picture which depicts them drinking the aforementioned wine. One Ontario school teacher got in major trouble because a student walking by his house saw him drinking a beer on his own front porch.
Needless to say, there seems to be some kind of a double standard here.
Normally, the rule is “if a parent is offended, you are guilty.” That is not what’s happening here.
I feel like somewhere out there, there must be a book by a reasonably well regarded author whose protagonist is an author who can't get a book deal because they aren't a very good writer.
If so, it would be funny for someone to angry-tweet about how that author is appropriating the life experience of people who can't get book deals because they aren't good writers, when there are so many authors who can't get book deals because they aren't good writers, who can't get book deals because they've been frozen out by industry gatekeepers.
I’m excited to read your book and as a pedantic Mainer, Mount Desert Island is usually pronounced like dessert, not desert if my high school basketball sports announcers were to be believed.
This morning I saw this video, which is a week old now. I guess this is the shop teacher. In which case, he's obviously been yanking everybody's chains this whole time, right? This is just a big giant Poe? Oakville Teacher speaks out against transphobia https://twitter.com/BenBankas/status/1573320311470444544
I have to say the most shocking thing in all this to me is that some schools still have shop classes. I assumed based on the infant level abilities of the average kid I come across that they had discontinued the whole genre of education. Perhaps they subbed it out with "using an app to get someone to do manual things for you" class. So I guess for me, this is a positive story for me. Had I a child, I would give two shits about the fake bewbs and demand that they attend the shop class. If for no other reason than to save me the pain of driving over to their house in my latter years to help them figure out how to use a drill or to flip a blown fuse. So, if you wanna teach a shop class, in my book you can come to class wearing buttless chaps a clown nose, and nothing more and you got my vote moving forward.
Thanks guys. You got me burrowing down into a voyeuristic rabbit hole with that Sans tweet. 😏 Good god some of those people have the most acute case of rectal myopia you've ever seen.
I can never not look at the lady with the weird anime breasts and not think that it’s fucking crazy that people are acting like it’s not a fetish

Surely if “eunuch” can be a gender identity, then “pantomime dame” can be one as well.
Rowan Atkinson, Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie, ready to teach shop class:
