I’ve been in the workforce for over 20 years, and here is all men have to do to ensure women get the short end of the stick at home and/or at work: nothing.

Agree totally. One of the male professors at my grad school regularly drove his children to and from school. This fact was so shocking and impressive that the school-run news paper wrote an article about it.

I’d say my husband for his part thinks he is an equal partner but he does not see the mental load at all. He also would be fine with our kids never being in an extra curricular, never going to a playdate or having a friend outside of our walls, not having gifts for birthdays/holidays, and no parties for anything, and…

“Discrimination and family-unfriendly policies are among the causes, but research has suggested another influence: “The returns to working long, inflexible hours have greatly increased” in this “winner-take-all economy.”

We’re more “productive” than ever, but we work hours as long as our parents or grandparents, and yet struggle more than they did to afford a house or any semblance of financial stability. We need another workers’ rights / trade union push, like the one that got us 8 hour days and the 5 day working week. We should be…

I think it’s possible Will cheated. Since the start of their relationship, he has basically played a game of push and pull with Kate. Will has always been confident that Kate will be there no matter what he does. He publicly hooked up with other women while they were dating and Kate just ignored it.

See the psychiatrist about new prescriptions STAT. Kate wouldn’t stand for it is laughable in it’s stupidity. Kate has NO power. At least Diana had worldwide adulation and even that didn’t save her in the end. Kate has a rabidly social climbing mother AND sister. Divorcing William and she would no longer be…

I’m disappointed because, what I thought would be the ultimate conflict of the show, the ultimate evil that’s been around for 8000+ years, is less important than the war with Cersei? I guess it goes against what’s expected, but still. Cersei better do some absolute, BATSHIT CRAZY stuff to make the NK look like…

Press person for public officials here! I’ve had SHH’s job description in a variety of capacities.

“It certainly bothers me,” she told the New York Times magazine in 2018 of her reputation as a liar. “Because one of the few things you have are your integrity and reputation,” she said, adding that “there’s a difference between misspeaking or not knowing something than maliciously lying.”

Her focus on policy is one of the reasons she’s my top pick right now. I have a really hard time imagining much of this being enacted, but I love that she’s putting them out there, and wish the media would give more attention to this than to the horse race stuff they usually focus on (not you all).

A lot to marvel at here, but this caught my eye: “To cut costs, [the N.R.A.] has eliminated free coffee and water coolers at its headquarters and has frozen its employees’ pension plan.”
I mean, not that I have an ounce of sympathy for employees of the N.R.A, but really? THIS is where you’re cutting costs? Guess they…

These men are also less likely, post-Kavanaugh, to believe women who claim they were sexually harassed or assaulted than they were before...

This and I will never forgive Mitch McConnell and the rest of the Republicans for their partisan BS and refusing to confirm any of Obama’s judicial nominees because it was an election year .

Enablers. Next question.

In 2016 and 2017, Republican women and men’s views on gender equality were pretty similar. But after Kavanaugh, PerryUndem found “a little divergence” between GOP men and women on questions like whether sexism is a problem for our society, whether elected officials should work on issues related to women’s equality,…

Republican men and Susan Collins.

Billie drives me crazy. They treated Lala way worse when she started on the show (and she was an actual credited cast member, unlike Billie) and they’re still treating Scheana like shit and her being the other woman to Brandi Glanville was the entire hook for the show initally. VPR is comprised of a tight-knight group…

I grew up south of Denver and remember this so vividly, what an awful thing to be obsessed with. I also just finished reading the book Columbine (which is excellent). I really hope they find this girl because the 20th anniversary is the perfect day for someone like her to commit an atrocity.

Yeah, but she ain’t wrong. I’m all for keeping progressive momentum going in pulling the Democratic party more to the left through primaries. But in 2018 the House was flipped by less leftist Democrats winning in swing districts, not the (outstanding people that we need more of) handful of progressives who won in…
