Good morning!
Not surprisingly, Donald Trump was a total douche during the debate last night and insulted Rosie O’Donnell/all women by saying he “only” called Rosie a fat slob. There was a rousing applause that makes me sick. Rosie’s response: “try explaining that 2 ur kids.”

Elliot Sailors talks about subverting gender in i-D. They also ask her about not being queer, which, isn’t true:
“I’ve never said I’m a non-queer individual. In fact, I’ve made a point of never really identifying myself in any way. Others have chosen labels for me, but other than androgynous, I haven’t said anything about how I see myself. Well no, I have said that I do identify as female. But the way in which I experience myself as female is probably considered pretty queer by a lot of people and I’m okay with that. My personal identifiers, or lack thereof, do not matter and that’s exactly my point. I just want people, all people, to have the experience of being completely free to be who they know themselves to be. That is the world that I am interested in living in and creating.”

Diablo Cody is so psyched on working with Tig Notaro on her new show.
I cannot believe how long that situation was kept under wraps, because we wrote that script last summer and it starts shooting in a couple weeks. I was originally contacted by Tig and Louis, much to my surprise, because I really do not see myself as part of that circle of coolness that they belong to. I was like, “Really, you guys want to work with me? Okay.” As a writer, it’s kind of a freebie to write for Tig because she has such a specific voice. It’s like, “You’re the greatest character ever and I didn’t even have to create you.”
