Since you’re out of the grays already, here’s the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle (emphasis mine):

This is way more powerful of a message than the standard corporate messaging that’s been filling my inbox. 

yet his mind remains fully intact

You can see one of the cops go to help him and immediately get yanked back by another officer. I cannot even. 

(Side note, it is simply inaccurate to say that there hasn’t historically been a significant police presence at Pride marches

What do people think makes a protest effective? Effective protests always requires some element of perceived danger to the comfort of powerful people. And that will frequently involve some threat of disorder, destruction and possibly even violence. If people in power know protesters are just going to show up, with…

Jezebel...what is going on? I have been following this site for years. Still, recently, I have come across some really tone deaf articles. Like this one: Ellen is of course being rhetorical...what is the point?

(Side note, it is simply inaccurate to say that there hasn’t historically been a significant police presence at Pride marches (and also erases the black lgbtq+ community’s specific experience with police violence). Ever heard of the riots at Stonewall?)

This is gross. Hollywood can’t depict a real atrocity (and Jean Seberg’s story absolutely was one - the goal was to make an example of her so no other high-profile white people dared support the black liberation movement) without inventing a sympathetic “white savior” character the (assumed white) audience can relate…

It just seems like she could probably lighten up on it a bit. Like, I don’t know anyone who thinks she’s actually going to meet up with her Hell’s Angel boyfriend once she finishes her shift bartending at the VFW or whatever.

I think even Chloe and Halle might find themselves confused by Joan’s level of hyperbole. It’s a fun, well-produced pop song. They are breaking absolutely no molds, and I think Fiona Apple and others might object to her characterization of ‘a year starved of innovative sounds.’ Sometimes reading Joan’s writing gives…

Way back in 2016, the day after he won, a bunch of my coworkers who were from Romania or eastern bloc countries tried to sit us down and explain what was going to happen. We thought they were being hyberbolic. We were wrong.

I think from now until the end of his term (hopefully this is the one and only term), White House correspondents need to start playing “Trump Pinata.” Everyone throws him a question until he cracks and storms off the podium. That reporter will be the one buying a round of drinks for every White House correspondent…

Mrs O tagging her man in Crown Royal was a freak nasty mood. 

Oh god, no. Never again “Harvest Gold” or “Avocado Green” appliances.

That’s the thing; they wail about “freedom,” but what they want is their servant class back. Waiters, hairdressers, nail techs, everything that they think they deserve just by gracing the world with their presence.

The implied argument that Asian countries that have used masks forever to contain the transmission of disease didn’t make them “fashion” is flat out wrong. I can’t speak for your experience in Taiwan, but in Vietnam you’re more likely to see a cute mask than a plain one.

There are some really good starter patterns out there now - the Grainline Hemlock, the Deer and Doe Plantain, several Tessuti patterns - all are great and free! They also generally have only three pattern pieces and are super quick payoff. Even a single week’s worth of ten minute stretches in the evening will get you…

My bandanas are blue. Have you even SEEN my eyes? Of course you’re going to go with a fetching mask, or a fun one, given the choice! Not sure why this warrants discussion. It’s like glasses. Nobody wears them for decoration, but they are on your FACE, and it feels better to feel cute!

How ironic that I came across this article as I was looking to purchase a set of really cute masks with gold stitching.
