Dramacow Lindy West - From Fun-Hating Fat Feminist to Cuckquean

https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/l...ndy-west-memoir-shrill-as-hulu-comedy-1105114

They’re adapting Lindy West’s shitty book into a Hulu “comedy” series starring a fat chick from SNL. It’s being described as “a comedy about a fat woman who wants to change her life but not her body”.

Spoiler

Elizabeth Banks, who optioned the book, also is attached to executive produce the single-camera comedy starring the 'SNL' castmember.

Hulu is turning to author, comedian and blogger Lindy West for its next comedy.

The streamer is teaming with Saturday Night Live's Lorne Michaels and Aidy Bryant to develop West's memoir Shrill: Notes From a Loud Woman for the small screen. Bryant is set to star in the single-camera comedy, which is in development.

The Hulu take is described as the story of a fat young woman who wants to change her life, but not her body. West, Ali Rushfield and Saturday Night Live repertory player Bryant penned the teleplay and crafted the story. The comedy hails from Michaels' Broadway Video banner and it is being produced outside of his longtime home at Universal Television. The company's Andrew Singer will exec produce. Elizabeth Banks' and Max Handelman's Brownstone Productions banner is also on board to exec produce the comedy via their pod deal at Warner Bros. Television. Banks originally optioned Shrill for television in December 2016.

Shrill joins a comedy development slate at Hulu that also includes Ramy, starring Ramy Youssef in a Jerrod Carmichael-produced half-hour exploring what it means to be Arab, American and a Muslim at a time when each of those identity markers is going through a crisis of definition.

Michaels is repped by CAA and Hansen Jacobson; Bryant is with UTA and Schreck Rose. WEst is with UTA and the David Black Agency. Banks and Handelman are repped by UTA, Untitled and Ziffren Brittenham.

hey it took me a second to notice cuz I thought those were pictures of matinees, but this bitch is hella fat and I would definitely not have sex with her.

Matinees? Like movies?

No they meant manatee.

 

[DNA_JACKED]

She'd just get a hose and start siphoning the sugar from the tank.

Given that a single gallon of gasoline has the equivalent of 28,746 nutritional calories, she probably already siphons from the tank to sustain her size.

 

[queue-anon]

Swooping in to an old thread because I saw this picture today and was stunned that Aidy Bryant looks tiny compared to how Lindy West looks now. A decade ago, West was closer to Bryant's size.

Spoiler: Lindy West vs. Aidy Bryant

I'm sympathetic to fat people because I know how hard it is to lose weight, but it's truly exceptional that West has doubled down on it and hasn't even tried not to gain a shitload of weight on top of her already unhealthy girth.

Lindy West is a name I thankfully haven’t seen in some time. I assumed she died choking on a ham sandwich or tying her shoes or going up steps or some other activity normal people can do but fatties can’t.

Coincidentally we were having a bitch about her in the Beauty Parlour:

Removing herself from social media probably didn't help her. If you're a professional whiner dunking on 'fuckboy dudebros' twitter is pretty much the only place you can gain any traction. When she left there were a million other mediocre New York white women there to take her place.

I agree that it's good her name's all but disappeared. The infuriating thing about her wasn't the things she said/wrote, but the vast amount of insecurity and overcompensating behind everything she did that was obvious to everyone except her. People comfortable in their own skin do not act the way she does.

Lindy's dreadful new book was released yesterday: "In a laugh-out-loud, incisive cultural critique, West extolls the world-changing magic of truth, urging readers to reckon with dark lies in the heart of the American mythos, and unpacking the complicated, and sometimes tragic, politics of not being a white man in the twenty-first century. She tracks the misogyny and propaganda hidden (or not so hidden) in the media she and her peers devoured growing up, a buffet of distortions, delusions, prejudice, and outright bullsh*t that has allowed white male mediocrity to maintain a death grip on American culture and politics-and that delivered us to this precarious, disorienting moment in history.

"West writes, 'We were just a hair's breadth from electing America's first female president to succeed America's first black president. We weren't done, but we were doing it. And then, true to form-like the Balrog's whip catching Gandalf by his little gray bootie, like the husband in a Lifetime movie hissing, 'If I can't have you, no one can'-white American voters shoved an incompetent, racist con man into the White House.'

"We cannot understand how we got here-how the land of the free became Trump's America-without examining the chasm between who we are and who we think we are, without fact-checking the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves and each other. The truth can transform us; there is witchcraft in it. Lindy West turns on the light."

Lindy has no expertise or authority to "turn on the light" for all of us mouth-breathing woman-haters who decided that Hillary Clinton was a fake piece of shit and that possessing a vagina wasn't a compelling reason to vote for a bad candidate. Lindy doesn't even have a background in government or politics or economics or sociology, and she consistently espouses a dangerously specious view of public policy (the most "progressive" choice is the best choice, always, without question!). I'm curious to read this book just to see the leaps of logic and tenuous connections that Lindy had to make to flesh out another obvious, played-out Orange Man Bad screed while presenting herself as a wise, unbiased truth seeker.

Anyway, it soothes my soul that Lindy now looks about 60 years old and has physically morphed into the bitter old scold that matches her irritating writing persona:

“It’s white people’s fault!!”

*ignores all the minority voters who didn’t show up to vote for the slay queen*

Welp, can’t blame them when your sister-in-law is a race baiting book sellerI suppose. She must have taken tips from Ijeoma for the book.

 

[Comrade Autogynephilia]

I always wondered what the intra family dynamics are like in the West/Oluo clan. Black racial justice types like Ijeoma Oluo fucking hate 'basic' white women like Lindy, their concept of 'misogynoir' is such blatant projection of this. She must be furious some 'mediocre white woman' has come along and ripped her and her acolytes ideas off with this tripe.

If it sells I'd predict some kind of cryptic shit from Oluo about it being because a white person wrote it. Although West et. al. are such craven cowards to these people I'd expect her to agree and start self flagellating herself in a very public way.
"The fact that white people bought a book about white supremacy written by a white person is proof white supremacy is out of control in the US"....


I'd love to know more about the perv chaser husband, he looks like such a freak show.

I think Ijeoma is a rabid hypocrite who wholeheartedly supports everything that Lindy does because Lindy ticks all the right boxes for being appropriately ashamed and guilty about being white, plus Lindy brings in a lot of money and garners attention to support their family, especially through her current Hulu show and interviews with people like Trevor Noah. The Oluo siblings' mother is white, Aham (lol) had two kids with a basic blonde white bitch before Lindy, and Ijeoma seems to fuck white guys exclusively and had kids with a white dude as well (her ex-husband was named Chad Jacobson, lmao). They're a weird, self-loathing, contradictory bunch.

Here's Aham and his non-fat ex:

Here's Ijeoma and one of her sons, who could nearly pass for white (or for Shaun King) if he shaved his head:


I do believe that Aham is a raging faggot, though. I don't know if he's a chaser so much as someone who prefers the day-to-day companionship of a beard. Maybe he wanted a "strong female role model" around for his girls after he got divorced. These people are nuts and pretend to be more authentic than anyone else while living a bunch of lies.

Edit:


Apparently if you like pop culture or memes or anything that Lindy doesn't like, you're an "American sucker." Fuck off, you sour, simplistic hag.

Holy shit, this land whale is blaming South Park? Are you fucking kidding me? What is this shit?

Lindy West is a modern day snake oil salesman who’s clearly broke down and out of ideas so she travelled back to 1997 and stole some from the religious right. Was blaming gamergate old and stale? Shehad a brilliant idea to go back far her? Why not go back to the Tracy Ullman show in the 80s and blame the simpsons you fat hack.

edit: Guess she went as far back as 2018 to steal the idea from an unfunny FYAD hack who was cancelled recently.

It might not be too late to stop this hot take on 'South Park' giving birth to the Alt-Right

This take is so hot the writer felt he should warn the public before going ahead and writing it up.

Oh God, I HATE this absolute cunt. My absolute favorite thing though is her “debate” with Jim Norton. I don’t think it’s been posted here but it’s a joy to watch because she fails so miserably to defend her position. He also makes a comment about South Park which might be where her hatred of it stems from.

Norton's nuanced arguments flew right by her.

Lindy West is just not that smart and she’s ballooned in weight since that interview. It doesn’t take much to sell snake oil these days as long as you have the “correct thoughts” about hot topic issues (gender, race, sexual orientation).

The same can be said for conservatives too, though.

 

[Travoltron]

I have a friend that used to run in her shitty clique. He got #MeTooed and of course she canceled him and lied on Twitter that she was never friends with him, even though she was.

Lemme guess: dad ran out on the family early on and self-sacrificing single white mom raised the kids.

Thirty-seven year-old Oluo and her younger brother, Ahamefule, were born in Denton, Texas, and raised by their single mother, a Kansas native, in the northern Seattle suburb of Lynnwood, Washington. (Another sibling, Jacqueline, was born when Oluo was 12 years old.) They were poor. Sometimes the electricity was cut off and meals came from local soup kitchens. Oluo’s father returned to Nigeria when Ahamefule was one month old, and aside from two phone calls and two letters, Oluo never heard from him before his death in 1997.

Every damned time.

I’m not going to play armchair psych, but you’d think people like Oluo would recognize that at least part of their anger and sadness is rooted in dad abandoning them rather than mom doing the hard job and raising kids without a copilot. There must be some weird disconnect where she refuses to consciously blame dad, capes for groups like BLM, but clearly avoids intimate relationships with black men all the same.
