Remembering Ricki Lake
Remember Ricki Lake? She's not dead, I'm just asking if you remembered her. I sort of do. Vague, misty memories of a sort of more female friendly Jerry Springer. I think. Or maybe her show wasn't like that, I'm trying to put a positive spin on all those shows from the 80s and 90s that were aimed at white trash imbeciles and black women with fingernails that are way, way too long. Well Ricky Lake was part of all that and now she spends her days walking her dog and making the world less safe from Covid because neck gaiters actually make things worse. But I'm sure you already knew that since you're into science and everything.
