Mary and Lou and Rhoda and Ted

Reading this excellent book about the making (and almost not happening) of the Mary Tyler Moore show.

The show revolutionized sitcoms as well as fashion for women and in the early 1970’s 47 million people tuned in on Saturday nights to watch a show about a single woman (one who wasn’t whining about it) who had a blossoming career. 

These days executives would call that woman, “unlikeable.” 

You mean the generation that paid three times as much for college to enter a job market with triple the unemployment isn’t interested in purchasing the assets of the generation who just blew an enormous housing bubble and kept it from popping through quantitative easing and out-and-out federal support? Curious.

So today Angelina Jolie had double mastectomy, which is the removal of one’s breasts, to prevent Breast cancer. So instead of praising Angelina on her bravery, men on Twitter decided to ridicule her, even calling her stupid for removing her breasts. For those of you on Tumblr that are attacking Feminists for being delusional about sexism against women and misogyny here’s your fucking proof that sexism and misogyny exists. 

All these people are horrible.
