      That was not 18 years ago. Stop lying to me. It was like 10 years right?….. right?!

    2. I’ll always remember this as one of the defining moments that turned me into a (conscious) feminist. I was in elementary school and I couldn’t put it into words quite yet, but I knew I felt a way about everyone getting pleasure from laughing at her.

      Interesting how she pivoted to the talking point that the brown children around the world need the US’s help. Not a knock on her but this is really a sign of the times. This is the propaganda we were fed to justify the military invasions of the Middle East.

      ~~i hope she’s doing well! 🩷~~ i remember when this happened, but it was during an extremely busy+transformative time in my life (i had finally gotten away from my abuser after plotting for years!!!!!), so i didn’t think on it too much. i *do* remember a lot of smugness when people giggled about it on TV, but was still a teen that wasn’t totally done cooking in terms of age+brain development+education, so i kinda felt something weird about it but didn’t yet have all the pieces to put together.

      edit: since she turned out to be a maga weirdo, i’m taking my fucking heart emoji back

      She’s definitely in Trump’s administration. Other than being of legal age, she’s totally his type.
