The saying means, for example, you can?t support #TIMESUP and praise sexual predators at the same time. You can?t retain your credibility as an activist (i.e. – retain the cake) and, at the same time, praise a sexual predator (i.e. – eating the cake).

He also shared, “Also… I prefer pie, I think.”
In response to Justin’s question, Dylan replied, “The saying means, for example, you can’t support #TIMESUP and praise sexual predators at the same time.

Justin recently attended the 2018 Golden Globes wearing a Time’s Up pin. He posted a photo of himself and Jessica Biel before the ceremony on Jan. 7 with the caption, “Here we come!! And DAMN, my wife is hot! #TIMESUP #whywewearblack.”
Justin also showed his support for the Time’s Up movement with an Instagram post on Jan. 1 that read, “No more accepting sexual harassment and inequality at work as normal. It’s NOT normal. #TIMESUP – Link up top in bio.”
The “Supplies” singer has yet to respond to Dylan’s tweet, but he did respond to another Twitter user’s explanation of the saying.
“it’s actually, you can’t have your cake & eat it too. Meaning you can’t have 2 good things at once. If you eat it you don’t have it anymore!” @ggianaaddeliaa wrote.
Justin replied, “THANK YOU! Day changed. #StillPieOverCake.”
