Pioneer Girl | EP105 Balloon Pop | KindaTVAdded:
Beg for it. Louder. Bite your lip a little. Don't be such a [ __ ] about it.
Use what God gave you. Now apologize for who you are. Isn't this always the way?
Marilyn, Dolly, Britney, all really savvy women who for success or survival use a wink and a wiggle to build business only to get smacked with [ __ ] shame right across the face. I mean, the same people who demanded their skin skinned them alive for it.
>> [music] >> You take us down for your pleasure and then you blame us for falling. Well, here I lie, a fallen woman outraged at your filthy hypocrisy.
>> [music] >> Okay, that's not much of an apology.
Actually, what happened to the script?
Wait, what am I Wait, what am I supposed to apologize for? I am who they want me to be. I'm who you made me be. I did not tell you to court the sons of Omen. We are getting trashed online. Can you look a little more ashamed? Maybe I should just bend over while you spank me and scream mea culpa with a pouting puppy dog eyes. You know, that could work actually. Let's do that.
Hello.
What is it, Eleanor?
It's not my fault.
Well, you're bad at this.
I don't know how this happened, okay?
You don't know how selling yourself as a corset model made you an object of adoration for white nationalist toxic masculinity.
Oh, did you just call me a model?
Only because I can't say the other word.
There it is.
There it is. You all wanted her. Tell me you didn't. The cleavage, the carefully curated mischief, that's smart, subtle, and historically accurate.
Pioneer Girl is the whole reason you're still here digging around in the dirt instead of back on Bay Street sobbing into a soy latte.
She's the reason why Sam can still make her weird art that scares children and most adults. And she's the reason why I might still have a chance at a new book idea.
Are you still working on that?
You made me stop searching. Eleanor, there's not a thing in this world I can make you do.
I'm not the inflexible one here. That is the cold, steel spine of the patriarchy.
So, excuse me.
Fire bends metal.
This is the most horribly subtle mansplain I've ever received.
>> [music] >> You talk down to me like you mean it.
Don't let them put out your fire.
Just because you got burnt.
Oh, it's like you're almost hot sometimes.
Somebody's hot.
>> [sighs and gasps] >> Hey.
Look, I know things have been a little bit weird around here and and I just wanted to say that I'm sorry if anyone was offended.
I'm sorry if I offended everyone.
Fine. I'm I'm sorry I am offensive to you. Present tense, active voice, offensive. Offensive.
Okay, maybe I took it a little bit too far, but I was only doing what I had to to make change. Did it make some people uncomfortable? Sure, fine, yes, it did.
But, I mean, that's how you make space for women's voices, right? You you you use the system, you figure it out, you make it work for you.
Get canceled, historical Karen.
What? What? Don't No, don't you Karen me. I am out there screaming truths in their faces for all of us.
>> That's exactly the problem. Your voice is the only one that anyone can hear.
You take up all the space, all the air.
Do you want to yell at them with me?
Actually, we need to honor your role in the village. I just commissioned a bronze bust. It's modeled after your bust, actually.
What do you think of the prototype?
Hilarious. That's me. It's me, right?
It's the the cellist everyone loves to hate. Oh.
But riddle me this.
How was I supposed to compete with the boys' club if I didn't break some rules of polite society?
Have you met my friend Eleanor? She is full of hot air.
>> [laughter] >> Look at her, floating up there above the fray while we're all out here grinding it out, you know.
You think you're changing the narrative?
Really? No.
You're just a prop.
>> Corporate puppet in heels.
>> [sighs and gasps] >> My ritual sacrifice is complete.
>> [sighs and gasps] >> My downfall is the common ground you all need to feel alive. Humiliate and be merry.
I don't want to humiliate you, Eleanor.
Don't you?
Not right now.
Eleanor, you make yourself the center of everything.
It isn't about you. I don't want to be humiliated or or used. I hate that I did that to you. That's exactly what Patrick did to me.
>> Eleanor!
>> [ __ ] Sorry.
Look.
For the record, I think your art is amazing. Okay, I've never met anyone who can make a searing comment on feminism with a balloon. Well, yeah, I'm like really good. Sorry about that, by the way.
Don't you want to yell at them with me?
Just a little.
I don't want to be part of your manic homesteading with hubby hayride porno.
>> [sighs] >> Look, I I can't promise that I'll button it up, but I I will move over and shut up some.
Sorry.
I'll do better.
I'll clean that up.
Yes, ma'am.
>> [music] [music] >> Okay. So, Ooh.
Real talk time.
I was hoarding [music] all the history.
I was a history hoarder.
No matter how brilliant I sounded in all of those seemingly accurate rants, history hoarder, right here, guilty. Um, but but [music] now I am taking a backseat to another daddy. Woohoo! Sam. Sam, [music] get Sam, get uh Sam is here to take over the Pioneer Girl feed. So, here she What? Um Oh.
What do you Uh so, apparently Sam had another takeover to go to. [music] Busy lady.
Does this still count as sharing?
