Randall Park says Hollywood keeps “taking the wrong lessons” from successful movies.
“For example, ‘BARBIE’ is this massive blockbuster, and the idea is: Make more movies about toys! No. Make more movies by and about women!”
My male coworker told me women shouldn’t be angry when men stare because “you can’t expect men not to notice attractive women.” I asked him if noticing something and staring at it were the same thing. He said yes. I asked if that meant I could stare at his bald spot for twenty minutes because I noticed it. He covered his head.
Yesterday, my niece’s bra strap slipped out of her shirt, and her teacher told her to fix it so the boys couldn’t see it or she’d be sent home. So my niece took her bra off, shoved it in her gym bag, and went back to reading. The teacher was horrified. “You can’t do that! Put it back!” “But you said you didn’t want to see it. Now you can’t see it.” I am so proud of her.

STOP TELLING BROKE PEOPLE TO BUDGET.
THERE, I SAID IT.
YOU CAN'T BUDGET YOUR WAY OUT OF POVERTY.
AFTER BASIC NECESSITIES I HAVE $0 LEFT OVER, HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO BUDGET?
My boomer dad asked me last week why I'm still renting at 43.
I told him a starter home in our area is $410,000.
He said "so save up."
I said the down payment alone is $82,000.
He said "that's not so bad, break it into pieces."
I said after rent, insurance, and daycare I put away maybe $400 a month.
He did the math out loud. Got to seventeen years. Went quiet.
Then he said something I didn't expect.
"I put down $3,200 on our first place. I had it saved in eight months working at the plant."
Then he just sat there for a second.
"I always thought you kids were exaggerating."
That's it. That's the whole conversation.
He wasn't being cruel. He genuinely had no idea. Nobody ever showed him the number.
Most of them aren't defending the system. They just never looked at it.
