Kamala Harris: Democrat ‘It Girl’

Posted on | August 2, 2017 | Comments Off on Kamala Harris: Democrat ‘It Girl’

 

Michael Krieger highlights a story about California’s freshman Sen. Kamala Harris, who will spend the weekend in the Hamptons being courted as a 2020 presidential candidate by big-money Democrats:

The California senator is being fêted in Bridgehampton on Saturday at the home of MWWPR guru Michael Kempner, a staunch Clinton supporter who was one of her national-finance co-chairs and a led fund-raiser for her 2008 bid for the presidency. He was also listed as one of the top “bundlers” for Barack Obama’s 2012 re-election campaign, having raised $3 million.
Guests there to greet Harris are expected to include Margo Alexander, a member of Clinton’s inner circle; Dennis Mehiel, a Democratic donor who is the chairman of the Battery Park City Authority, even though he lives between a sprawling Westchester estate and an Upper East Side pad; designer Steven Gambrel and Democratic National Committee member Robert Zimmerman.
Washington lobbyist Liz Robbins is also hosting a separate Hamptons lunch for Harris.

So, the deep-pocket donors, the D.C. lobbyists and the public-relations hacks all agree that this woman from California is their ticket for 2020. Remember when Democrats were the party of “the little guy”?

Can Queer Feminist Emma Lindsay Possibly Avoid a Crazy Cat Lady Future?

Posted on | August 1, 2017 | 1 Comment

“I’m a queer white woman, and I think I hold considerable privilege over many straight white men in the USA, primarily because of the benefit of my education. . . . People who are not educated well enough, and who lack the verbals signals of being well educated, are un-hirable right now.”
Emma Lindsay, Nov. 13, 2016

Emma Lindsay is a 32-year-old queer feminist who lives in San Francisco, where everybody is gay except for desperate heterosexual men. How desperate are they? Desperate enough to date Emma Lindsay.

Last year, Emma Lindsay’s blogging about sex — sex! sex! sex! — was the subject of an article I wrote called “Whatever Happened to Normal?”

When did every woman on the planet suddenly decide that she needs to relate her every sexual experience — and every thought she’s ever had about sex — for the entire Internet to read? Who would want to date someone like that, knowing that your every interaction is likely to be conveyed in detail (and critically analyzed) for the enjoyment of everybody with a Wifi hookup?

Like all queer feminists, Emma Lindsay is crazy. She dated men until she was in her mid-20s, then switched to dating women before she apparently noticed that her relationships with women were going the same place that her relationships with men had gone — nowhere.

One of her therapists, “who specialized in LGBTQ issues” asked her if she “was really bisexual, or just attached to the identity of bisexual.” She tried identifying as straight for a while, but that made her “miserable,” and later on she decided to “briefly identify as a lesbian, and assumed that my prior attractions to men had been due to the heteronormative brainwashing of society.” Hey, did I mention that Emma Lindsay is a queer feminist? And that “queer feminist” is a synonym for crazy?

Why Straight White Women Perpetuate the Patriarchy

That’s the headline on an article Emma Lindsay wrote last fall, denouncing “a highly insidious, type of patriarchy as women are denied access to success on their own and are reliant on their husbands.” Oh, what a terrible thing it is for wives to rely on their husbands, because patriarchy denies women “access to success on their own.”

Readers would be mistaken to think I dislike Emma Lindsay, because in fact I am deeply sympathetic to her. She is a victim of feminism, part of a generation of young women doomed to a future of barren loneliness by their belief in a false ideology, the Cult of Social Justice. Read more

Rule 5 Sunday: Burger Girls

Posted on | July 30, 2017 | 3 Comments

— compiled by Wombat-socho

As you might imagine, I’m not too thrilled with the current crop of Carl’s Jr. ads, which deprecate the attractive models formerly used to help sell their delicious burgers in favor of some weird sitcom-like spots featuring “Carl Hardee Sr.” coming back to take charge of the company from his feckless supermodel-obsessed son. Well, we’ll always have YouTube, I guess. Today’s appetizer (belatedly helping us celebrate National Hamburger Day) is Samantha Hoopes, here seen chowing down on the Carl’s Jr. All American Burger.
As usual, many of the following links are to pics generally considered NSFW, and the management is not responsible for any ill results arising from your failure to click at an appropriate time & place.

All American Girl Eats All American Burger. ‘Murica.

We kick off this week with Ninety Miles From Tyranny and Hot Pick of the Late Night, Morning Mistress, and Girls With Guns; Goodstuff checks in with cosplay, cartography, and SCIENCE! Animal Magnetism also supplied Rule Five CCW Friday and the ever-popular Saturday Gingermageddon.

EBL’s herd of heifers this week included Cara Delevergywobblethumpbrrbrr – screw it, we’re just going to call her Jane Smith from now on. Easier to spell are Sandie Shaw, National Tequila Day, Rule 5 Popcorn, National Hamburger Day, National Lipstick Day, Judith Durham, and Nancy Sinatra.
