the condescension and self-big-ups are, how you say, insupportable; i wouldn't write the tumblr post just because i don't have the energy for that kind of screenshotting and outrage but i completely understand it

Jesus this was his FACEBOOK, it's like getting mad because you heard someone bragged about something in a text

welcome to Social Justice Tumblr

It's a (sort of) privately-expressed opinion that sheds light on attitudes that are relevant to his work. It's not worth getting mad over but it is illuminating. Actually it isn't really, it's not remotely surprising that Perpetua would condescend to young girls while holding po-faced reverence for past-it indie bands.

well he calls her the daughter from who's the boss so he basically still thinks she's a young girl

It'd be funnier if he thought she really was the character from Who's the Boss irl

itt we debate what constitutes a "young girl"
― NINO CARTER, Saturday, 5 January 2013 15:41 (eleven years ago) link
this guy is totally sexist in how he treats "girls"

if he had called her one of the charmed sisters from charmed it'd indicate he basically thinks she's a witch
― Mordy, Saturday, 5 January 2013 15:44 (eleven years ago) link
no proof to the contrary iirc

like seriously yall have devolved into just finding stuff to latch on to. pretty lame imo

The fact that this continues to be a conversation is maybe the most pathetic thing I've seen on ILX in ages.

My bad, Alyssa Milano and virtually everything she's been in has basically zero profile over here and I didn't bother to actually google her. That was a pretty dumb assumption to jump to on my part, but he IS actually talking about her like she's a young girl. Like why is he giving himself a pat on the back for a 40-year old having listened to or (gasp) thought about not-terribly-obscure records that have been around half her lifetime?
― Matt DC, Saturday, 5 January 2013 16:15 (eleven years ago) link
Because Alyssa Milano did, at one time, have a terribly high profile over here, especially among people in Perpetua's age group, and it's like I said way upthread...he probably feels pretty cool atm for making a list that she saw and liked enough to retweet to a gazillion people. Perpetua hate amongst certain groups on ilx is way over the top.

*prays pre-emptively for thread not to turn into Shit Perpetua Said Collection thread*
― NINO CARTER, Saturday, 5 January 2013 16:26 (eleven years ago) link
I've known the guy for fifteen years, before ilx even came into existence, so I guess I just feel like I can read him a little better than some people around here and, yes, he's capable of being a completely infuriating blowhard and warped perceptions on some topics, but he's ultimately harmless and really not worth all the heated discussion he generates at times.
― Johnny Fever, Saturday, 5 January 2013 16:30 (eleven years ago) link
If someone generates heated discussion all the time, are they really harmless? think abt it
― caek, Saturday, 5 January 2013 16:40 (eleven years ago) link
This is all about a list he made on Buzzfeed and his reaction on facebook to Alyssa Milano acknowledging it. Worth the heat? think abt it
― Johnny Fever, Saturday, 5 January 2013 16:42 (eleven years ago) link
is this really heat? he said something dumb that was brought to light and is being called out accordingly
― lex pretend, Saturday, 5 January 2013 16:42 (eleven years ago) link
This is more like the dumb pictures of Drake thread where continuing examples are just added to the list.

xxp May all of your off-the-cuff remarks be similarly brought to light.

This is worth a chuckle at best. The virulent original tumblr post sets a stupid & borderline creepy tone for "making fun" of a blogger

Like sorry CAD im all for clowning perp but doing it on the basis of an unfunny bitter anecdote about a facebook post provided by a social justice tumblr that presumes perp's general attitudes to women bc of how he responded when he got linked by a major celebrity....
