“It’s a terrible thing, I think, in life to wait until you’re ready. I have this feeling now that actually no one is ever ready to do anything. There is almost no such thing as ready. There is only now. And you may as well do it now. Generally speaking, now is as good a time as any.”

Yeah. It's also super sex-worker-shame-y and though Kat Dennings owns her sluttiness in a rad way it's still portrayed as that being "funny" cause she's such a "trainwreck" who had no dad and whose mother was absent. It can get pretty misogynistic at times. Hon is almost as bad a Mickey Rooney in Breakfast at Tiffany's (UGH), and honestly even the white characters (Oleg and Sophie) are super awful eurotrash stereotypes. Not to mention Earl. I enjoyed it as a fluff show for awhile, but it's gotten so bad lately that I usually just feel offended and sad that it's not better about super obvious awful stereotypes that are totally overplayed and boring. And I almost feel bad about feeling done with it, because I like Molls enough that her writing on it was why I started watching it in the first place : (

brandnewswastikas:
“Yeah, my thighs touch. They touch the sides of your man’s head when he’s jaw-deep in my puss tank,” she said to the girl who had been making fun of her for being fat.
The girl was shocked. She had not anticipated such a biting, venomous retort.
“Yikes,” the fat girl…
