honestly, at this point it feels disrespectful to Warren, who doesn’t give a damn about this entire thing, to drudge it up. And it’s divisive between two candidate who agree on a whole lot and could potentially have some overlap if the damn media would just do a better job. can we STOP with this question? It looked…

yeah but why would congress be so afraid to let her run the CFPB unless they knew she’d do the work to genuinely regulate wall street? Everything about her indicates she’s going to do what she says and that her extensive research on credit practices and predatory lending literally changed the foundation of her beliefs.

“Warren and Sanders are extremely similar in terms of policy, but Elizabeth Warren preaches with the faith of the converted.”

they should have run together, IMO it’d seal the deal. That they could have this discussion and she could care less about it shows me they’d work well together (being real though, they are the wealthy and elite...)

snoring would definitely be a reason to implement this!!

it would make me so sad not to live/sleep with my partner (I just want a bigger bed, lol). I think maybe it depends though, because we’re super comfortable telling each other when we need to be alone. Some people have full-blown arguments if the other person snaps about needing personal space, which I can understand,…

that tandem bike analogy was BEAUTIFUL. I’ve always thought of LAT as being the driving force behind McMansions (why else would you invite so many hauntable rooms into your life?!)

ex-cheerleader here...Dare Me’s toxic teen girl culture is preeeettttty accurate (I competed nationally as well so I have many stories). Also had multiple friends in circuses/ who were competitive dancers and gymnasts, so “You Will Know My Name” is also very much so a good depiction of the bad aspects (and beautiful…

nahh they have snap filters and contour kits, they’re good!

this book/ Meg Abott is sooooooo good. I wish they would do “You will Know My Name” but, “Dare Me” is great. 

it’s payback for piracy. We’ve been spoiled bc Netflix had to start out at a super low price with no competitors but also very little reputation, syndicated and original content, and thus no real impetus to constantly be going to Netflix (when I first signed up, it was $8.99/month, and I don’t even remember what…

Honestly I loved Jessica Jones S3, thought it really could’ve done wonders as a S2 re: her relationship with Trish. It was white and heteronormative AF, had some really shitty elements to it throughout the series, but man, Kristen Ritter knocked her performance out of the park throughout all seasons, Killgrave will…

yeah nelson was being petty and a little discouraging re: separating what is literary from what is “fine for teenage girls” (like, are they mutually exclusive? no. Does nelson believe they are? probs not! but this quote implies it and she’s a writer sooo...), but the pile-on culture is far worse.

“She’s fine for teen girls,” the 2017 Northern graduate said of Dessen, “But definitely not up to the level of Common Read. So I became involved simply so I could stop them from ever choosing Sarah Dessen.”

I am always here for YA, and tend to think people who write it off are being snobbish/underestimating someone like Meg Abbott, Megan Miranda, some other megans probs , but am honestly here to ask WHAT BOOK ABOUT GAMING CULTURE?? That sounds more interesting than this entire thing, tbh lol.

Part of the problem= okay to shame her for the very problem you want to combat? That’s ass-backwards logic and you know it. You don’t want to give up the idea that thin shaming is just as wrong as fat shaming, and as a fucking fat person I am calling you out on that.

you’re just being an asshole, plain and simple

dude marriage keeps people trapped in domestically violent relationships. Don’t even. whether it’s a good choice or not is hiiiiighly circumstantial

this! the whole line of attack on her (BUT TAXES, E??) is actually so insidious. ALL OF THEM WILL RAISE TAXES OR CUT ESSENTIAL FUNDING. This is literally the party’s platform, no? Spread the wealth to provide and enhance social nets/programs? Did the democratic party change its ethos? Attacking her for not having a…

Hillary Clinton is a neocon. She’s there for herself and is doing some political version of “Eat, Pray, Love” with this/ in general RN. I wouldn’t say she comes close to TERF logic...I’d say she’s watered it down to convince other people (but let’s be clear, not herself, she’s incredibly smart and self-aware) that…
