“I like him cause he’s honest” = “I like hearing my shitty opinions coming from someone else’s mouth because I feel it validates them”

Yeah, it’s been a real lesson about the pitfalls of sexism in a system where we don’t elect presidents by using the popular vote. For too many, it wasn’t about his lack of qualifications, it was that they refused to elect a woman. If it wouldn’t depress me, it could be interesting to look back at the whole ABC…

It’s different because Hillary was a threat.

I’m a childless, married gay man who is a freelance “creative.” I live in New York where “creatives” grow like ragweed, so the market is tough. I’ve long given up on returning to the corporate world, though I have tried. I do all right for myself usually but I have really slow periods, and then my corporate finance…

Where did the idea that poor people don’t work or want to work come from?

Forget there not being enough jobs. There isn’t enough public transit to get people to those non existent jobs.

Step 1: See to it your impoverished voter base remains impoverished.

And as for the military, we have many many many bases, including Parris island where most of the marines who protect your first amendment rights, using guns, are made.

that’s how dudes talk to ladies all the time “oh that can’t be right” to my years of experience and research oh ok my boobs got in the way

And I’d add, that these kinds of “thought exercises” are only amusing and “interesting” to people with no skin in the game.

I have definitely experienced this and have been told as much in informational interviews and, candidly, in person. The next time I apply for a job I’m using my gender-neutral-erring-on-the-side-of-masculine middle name on my resume.

Google the words “Aggrieved entitlement”. America has raised White men to believe they are entitled to everything, whether through media and entertainment or in school. So, at the smallest indication that conditions no longer apply, they become downright murderous and angry, because they feel women and minorities have…

It’s entitlement. That’s it. Entitlement that goes toxic. When they don’t get what they want, they take it out on other people.

No. It’s not US women’s fault for shitty paid leave. You think all the women in almost every other country demanded paid leave and US women just don’t? That all we have to do is ask for it and Republicans will just pass legislation just like that? Most women take some time off when they give birth. Corporations just…

It’s like society wants you to have children and then it punishes you for having children and at the same time hates you if you don’t want to have children.

The robe is really becoming the white van of the garment family.

I’m old enough to remember when this was all due to children’s cartoons, and the National Anvil Association blocked any moves to stop it…

Found ‘that guy.’

Science is for NERDS AND LOSERS, amiright?
