let's check in on the "the government shouldn't regulate anything that happens online" crowd now that graham linehan was arrested for tweeting

Arrested for Tweeting that you should punch men in the balls if they invade women's spaces, but men holding up signs at rallies threatening to behead women is 100% fine.

are we ready, and i mean are we really ready, to stop pretending kieran culkin's oscar speech was cute? are we ready to talk about how the first thing he did when handed a little gold statue and a bit of power was to publicly humiliate his wife? the first thing he did was to get up on stage and say she owes him another baby now?

how she sank into her seat like a girl wanting to be swallowed up whole, smiling like we do when they are trying to pretend everything is fine. because hey isn't it so funny? don't they share a sense of humour? didn't she know the man she married? don't all the cutest couples joke about coerced reproduction? like men don't change the rules the second a room full of men start clapping for them. like men do not become monstrous the moment they get a bit of success.

but because he played a fun character in a fun show we cannot say anything about that fucking awful speech. i am tired. i am tired of women being expected to get it, to laugh, to play along with the humiliation ritual of being in love with a man who wants the world to know he fucking owns you now he won a little trophy so you better give him a child.

file this under: men resent women for 'gatekeeping' both sex and babies, and the moment a man gets a bit of power, he'll let you know just how deep his resentment runs.

Oh gross. Fuck that guy.

"About a year ago, I was on a stage like this and I very stupidly, publicly said that I want a third kid from her because she said if I won the award, I would — she would give me the kid. Turns out, she said that because she didn’t think I was going to win. And people came up to her and were like, you know, really annoying her. I think it got to her."

He KNOWS she hated being asked about this. He said it in the speech. He KNOWS she didn't want to talk about it anymore and then brings it up on national television. Twenty million Americans watched this guy intentionally humiliate his wife. I was watching it as it aired and was so disgusted. I had no opinion on him whatsoever before his gross speech and now I can't stand seeing him in anything.

"Hey honey, I know I've watched you go through unbearable agony multiple times during childbirth, but it's time for you to suck it up and do it over and over and over again. You owe me. I won a trophy like a big boy and you promised. I'm gonna fuck off somewhere else for the majority of the kids' childhoods to film more shows and movies but that's your problem. You can do 99.99% of the child rearing and I'll come back once every few months to ask how you're all doing, before leaving again. Love yoooou."
