watched the new john mulaney special and honestly it made me very happy. a lot of it is like deeply worrying shit ofc but i think its rlly clear that hes comfortable by how ridiculous it was and glad to be in a better place so thats nice. very much the same comedy and im glad for it bc hes earnestly rlly funny and i still enjoy it. i think society would improve more if we stopped paying attention to twitter,

#myposts #as a trans person yeah i have complicated thoughts abt the chapelle thing #but i dont necessarily see my enjoyment of his work as in tension or conflict w that yk?#mostly i dont worry about that kinda thing now and i feel better for it #but i do think its...a little funny how quick and absolute the 180 is? like now hes unfunny and ugly and smarmy or w/e #it cant just be 'this was politically bad' it has to dismantle him as a person w any kind of value in the first place and its just...silly #esp bc contrary to what ppl will say....they are VERY much holding the divorce thing against him.#like it is very much the first thing they bring up. and thats just so fucking stupid to me #like okay even assuming that he did cheat on his wife why am i supposed to care. thats not...positive proof hes a misogynist or smth #at most hes like. kinda interpersonally an asshole i dont actually think the moral judgement there is justified not that it usually is mind #but when i think abt that its like...the lie that he ever rlly was a wife guy and how thats invented ad hoc by fans #like trying to fit him into the box of type of guy for fandomization reasons #and also just how fucking stupid this recent trend of moralizing divorce is #seeing ppl talk abt crowders wife leaving and how mulaneys still an asshole for leaving his wife the same day. is. hm #i dont have a thesis there or anything its just so strange to see infidelity and divorce as inherently products of misogyny #far closer to both being products of MONOGAMY....but whatever i really just cannot bring myself to give a shit lol
