#MeTooStandUp: derrière les vannes, l’ordinaire du sexisme et des violences sexuelles
Mediapart a recueilli plus de cent témoignages sur le monde du #standup et de l’humour. Ils dépeignent un climat sexiste qui serait le terreau de multiples agressions. Analyse d’un système, alors que l’omerta se fissure.

A #FeministDystopia movie I watched this week (by happy accident!) was Swallow.
Incredible, beautiful artistry, direction, acting, sound, color, everything, in this film. Haley Bennett was truly extraordinary as the lead. I prefer her performance to any of this year's Oscar nominees. She held me completely in suspense the whole time, bizarrely relatable.
Highly recommend watching this one, even if only for its spectacular ending!
Best feminist #StandUp special I've seen since #Nanette, was Jacqueline Novak's #GetOnYourKnees. She's a genius, the way she playfully yet surgically flays open everything we were raised up to believe about gendered sex & bodies.
If you grew up as a straight or straight-passing girl in the 70s, 80s, 90s, chances are you will feel incredibly seen. Also, have I mentioned that she is a genius?
If you're from #Portland OR (high five), or have lived there awhile and know the city, I hope this will crack you up as much as it did me. It's from @joshjohnsoncomedy (that's his Instagram handle) and its about the, uh, vast quantity of #PDX bridges.
A special comedy edition of Michael Rosen's Word of Mouth, with Isy Suttie (includes the song she wrote in Welsh after she'd learnt the language to impress her boyfriend).
Yet another fascist convoy for Putin: fascism needs blockheads. I’ve heard blockheads like eggs, especially eggs that have been in the sun for a while.
Hey everyone!
Battling those pesky Monday blues?
We just had a riot of laughter watching #StavrosHalkias on #YouTube and caught his latest one on #Netflix.
