That was the wrong word for Samantha Bee to have used . But mostly because ( to paraphrase the French ) Ivanka has neither the warmth nor the depth.

Dear Men. It’s time for you to speak up on behalf of your mothers, sisters, girlfriends, wives and daughters. Speak up, because women don’t get pregnant alone.
I was lost, on my way to an audition in 1992. Rather desperately, I stopped a man for directions. He started to explain but then said it would be easier to show me.He walked me there,told some stories,then came in to charm the casting director because I was late. #TerryJonesRIP
. Just saw you at the airport. The woman next to me said “DO YOU KNOW WHO THAT WAS!!?” Yes, I said. “IT WAS CHRISSY TEIGAN AND JOHN LEGEND!!!!” Yes, I said. “ DON’T YOU LOVE CELEBRITIES?” Yes, I said. 😘
I just met an ‘influencer.’ What do you influence I asked her. I influence your decision about which handbag to buy. I said, I have handbags older than you. She said, great I’ll tell you which bags are worth the most and you can make some money. I am now in a bar.
Sick of this ‘50 is the new...’ 50 has always been 50. Women were previously just expected to shrivel and accept their husk. I suppose it must be terrifying to a lot men if we actually burned brighter, hotter, more ambitious and emancipated from shame, the older we got. #50
This was our best #Halloween I made NO sense unless I was standing right by him singing the theme tune.

So proud of for having the ethical compunction to cancel #Rosanne despite the show’s huge numbers. We too make a show about a middle class family , come and watch us instead #speechless ✨
#JoelSchumacher was the funniest, chicest, most hilarious director I ever worked with. Once,on set,an actress was complaining about me within earshot; how I was dreadfully over the top (I was)Joel barely looked up from his NYT+said “Oh Honey,no one ever paid to see under the top”
Best convo of the last 5 yrs:I explained to my son that his friend's Mum had become a man: "You can do that?""Yes""Then I wanna be a dragon"
. You can try to avoid London next week. But you cannot avoid the British and the Scotts. You will be as welcomed as an immigrant child in a detention centre. #IMPOTUS
Well now listen. Speechless has been cancelled and it feels rather sad. However, I truly believe we have left this conversation about family, disability and love in a better place than we found it. I love all the people I worked with on it, and all of you who loved our show too x
Gosh it’s so *interesting how men with all these opinions about women’s differentiation between sexual misconduct, assault and rape reveal themselves to be utterly tone deaf and as a result, systemically part of the problem( *profoundly unsurprising)
God God, SERIOUSLY?
I am having a drink ALONE in a bar in Washington. I am feeling very French. Being stared at somewhat, but not sure if I’m being recognised as a person of interest or as a hooker. I’m quite sure you appreciate the updates.

Today, I voted in America for the first time. Felt better than yelling at the telly. #BeTheChange #vote #CaliforniaPrimary2018

I don’t just speak for myself in this article, I speak for too many friends and co-workers as well. - Minnie Driver: men like Matt Damon 'simply cannot understand what abuse is like'
After we shot the movie ‘Gross Pointe Blank’ we all went on vacation together because we didn’t want it to be over .
Our neighbors , who saved our home and our community, who hosed off our roofs and the places where the fire jumped -Ryan, Quint, TR, Dennis, Jeff - those are the only ones we’ve heard about so far- there are no words that could ever express our thanks. #malibu #WoolseyFire
Boycott the briefings. Stop listening to this insane liar . Air time is his oxygen. #BoycottTrumpPressConferences feeds on our outrage so put him on a fucking diet.
Hardly bashed . And if horrible racist tweets mean a show about inclusivity gets more viewers - well the irony and the spreading of a little happiness in these dark times, is well worth the mean spirited bullshit

Boyfriend bought me a self isolating cake. It doesn’t like to be alone though, so I will eat it. 💪🏼
Today, on December 18th, 1939, my father flew in the battle of Heligoland Bight. His plane was shot down over the North Sea and he should have died. Instead, he saved 3 men. He was 18. He died 70 years later on the same day. Today is full of my wonder for him. #inmemorium
Weird vibe after… so we had a dance. #Oscars

I love my birthday. I am finding it hard to place it, without my mother. So, not happy exactly, but full of love and thanks. ✨🎈
To the women of Ireland who have not had a choice until now, to all the men who are their allies, wishing you luck tomorrow. #RepealTheEighth
It’s so curious that my life still seems to be presented merely as an adjunct to the men I’ve dated.I had such a great+interesting conversation with this journalist-sorry the distillation came down to dudes. Read my book. That, is actually me. If you’re interested. Link in bio

#BREAKING: USA is now the #1 country that has the most COVID-19 cases. The US reached 81,999 cases across the country, surpassing China and Italy.
My Mum is 83. She has ridden a bike everywhere, her whole life. During lockdown she has chosen green-spaces to visit by looking at an old map of London. Yesterday she cycled 3 miles to a park and on her way home, knackered and needing sustenance she passed ➡️
Someone just came up to me in a restaurant and told me I look like Minnie Driver, but not as tall. I said it's because I'm sitting down.
There are so many men I love who do NOT frame the differentiation between sexual misconduct assault and rape as an excuse or worse- our problem. Such bollocks..
I'm sorry if this language offends you. But the fact that what this woman is saying is true, offends me. #WomensMarchOnWashington
Been bloody ages since I scrubbed up…. Sooooooo NICE to not wear sweatpants for a bit, it turns out. On tonight and thank you Preen and 🖤
. being punished for speaking truth to 'power' by a spineless BBC.If you're questioning her impartiality, what about Laura Kuenssberg and her rampant defense of Cummings? 'Emily Maitlis replaced for Newsnight episode after Cummings remarks'
How can so many people in America, love so much that is awful?
Short break from the BUFFOONERY of UK and US politics. This time 11 years ago I was in hour 22 of a 38 hour labor. No pain meds, 10lb baby. Women should run the world.

Thank GOD you finally told them. Back is still WRECKED.
It’s the night before my birthday and I realise the thing I have most to show for all these years ( apart from the son ) is hair. 💘
#QueensSpeech felt incredibly moving this morning here in LA. The thanks she gave and unity she spoke of only highlighted the absolute dereliction of leadership here in America. #COVID19
You are CLUELESS. The UK were marching in SUPPORT of the #NHS an extraordinary institution that save millions of lives every day and deserves more funding.

The Democrats are pushing for Universal HealthCare while thousands of people are marching in the UK because their U system is going broke and not working. Dems want to greatly raise taxes for really bad and non-personal medical care. No thanks!
I missed the #CinderellaMovie premiere because I am in Italy working.. but here is my celebration of all the hard work of the cast and crew, particularly.. Love you Angel, congratulations x

I reached the end of Netflix. There is a giant waterfall over which you free-fall. You are definitely going to die but it’s very peaceful, except for the roar of the water. You end up with a book. #TrueStory #Netflix
I’d like to play Melanie/Melania. You know, cause I’m an immigrant and I have an accent.
Is Bill Barr related to Roseanne Barr ? (please don’t reply with an answer)

Why is it that women who vote for women are always accused of voting with our vaginas but men who vote for men are never accused of voting with their dicks?
So she left with her bread and her bun and some sort of restoration of belief in the kindness and trust that often feels absent, but is there in surprising corners. Dear You are excellent. Thank you. I wish you everything good .
Apparently I was a clue on Jeopardy! last night. Was the question: “Which actress got up at 5am to go to the airport and used eyeliner instead lipliner and no one told her until the TSA guy said she had ‘something on her face’ ? “ Cause that would have been totally legit.
My son, walking under the stage while AC/DC and the Foos played above. Every moment of last night was pretty extraordinary. Always loved #TaylorHawkins

I mean.... “OK, but go as big as your hair” was his most consistent note.💘
What luck to have had the chance to hang around and watch you be brilliant. You called me Maxi. You were so beloved by everybody. All love to your family and friends. 🖤#LeslieJordan
I love my birthday. Thank you for all your good wishes. This year is going to be...? ✨

Posted a video feeding bread to ducks- a pastime I’ve participated in my whole life. Have been trolled harder than for any political/me too/anti-abortion opinion I’ve posted. How did I NOT know bread was bad for ducks? AM I GETTING CANCELLED COZ OF BREAD? (Wld sort of make sense)

Cornish sunset turning me into a photographer of sunsets. Sorry.
So now I have to address this: firstly, if I were anorexic, R U aware how toxic your 3 word commentary is? Imagine I were actually sick, would you just pronounce your diagnosis, say ‘so sad’ and feel good about trolling someone you don’t know who might really be suffering? twitter.com/kesilkep/statu

To all you kind well wishers: Had shoulder surgery yesterday. Had physical therapy today= I am taking opioids which are scary but necessary. The upside of opioids is that a wolf just jumped up into my bed and I am currently stroking its magnificent head. #lovely #hallucinations
May I just say, we ALL swear, all the time. What said was regrettable,but it was a swear word- she should not lose her show because of it. And before you start ‘But Roseanne-ing’ all over my TL, THERE IS NO EQUIVALENCY BETWEEN RACISM AND SWEARING.
I had a root canal. And now I’m having a little tequila at the airport. I definitely tipped the barman to give me kick in the event of it all going tits up before take off. ✈️🤞🏼
It’s my birthday. I LOVE my birthday. Thanks Mum ♥️ It was also a blue moon solar eclipse at 5.30am this morning which was actually the exact time I was born .So I cast a pretty great spell. You’re welcome Mr Mueller 🌑✨( And yes, you can see my knickers in the Boomerang 💫)
