That’s been driving me crazy too. Many of these people (who are mostly white men) gleefully talking about everything burning down are perfectly safe from the consequences while minorities, the middle class and lower middle class will be the ones savaged by the flames.

This comment should be higher.

I forgot about that pain, but this description made it come back SO VISCERALLY. #neveragain

counterpoint: don’t!! we left these in the 90s and they need to stay there.

That experience is a universal, anatomical, physical truth.

Everyone reading this who wears heels higher than an inch and a half *now* should heed your words and stop or severely limit wearing them BEFORE they ruin their feet and have no choice.

This is the life I’m living now. Why did I think heels all day err’yday was good?

Loafers are supposed to be comfortable shoes for sitting around, adding a giant heel should disqualify them as loafers.

Basically just long enough for them to sew her up and bring in her hair and makeup team. I bet Meghan’s glad SHE’S not the future Queen of England.

That, and avoid a staged Papa Markle crying session outside Frogmore for at least a few days. I really, REALLY want to know the instant the kid is born, but if it gives them a few days of peace from Samantha and Pops, I hope they take as long as they need.

Burning it all down only sounds good if you have the privilege of not being on fire.

I cannot wrap my head around what Devos (and the people like her) think they are gaining by denying trans students a safe place to pee.

This is why I’m always extremely leery of the sort of person who opines that maybe Trump in office is “good”, because it will hasten the fall of the current system/speed the revolution/spur greater change in one form or another. The kind of person who believes that is usually not the same as the people who are going…

Here’s the thing. I think Pelosi was probably being sincere when she advised the incoming class of freshman to “go slow.” I think it’s probably been her experience over the last 25 years that she’s been in Congress that the way you build the trust and consensus necessary to pass actual legislation is by going slow and…

The cruelty is the point.

Unlike Trump she probably does have a plan. Erode pubic schools to the point that the voucher plan that the GOP has has been pushing finally goes through?

Betsy DeVos and her ilk should be barred from restrooms designated for human beings, because they don’t qualify. Hell, even a litter box is too good for her.

Every day there’s a new low of empathy, compassion, of human decency. I cannot wrap my head around what Devos (and the people like her) think they are gaining by denying trans students a safe place to pee. 

Maybe that is what is eating at Nancy Pelosi. These newcomers have fantastic style AND something to say, where Nancy spent most of her career having to (or maybe wanting to, who knows) wear boxy suits to be taken seriously.

Pfft. All I want is the corgis. 

I don’t blame them one bit. The UK tabloids have been absolute dicks to Meghan and she probably wants to keep her nutty family away from the whole situation as long as possible.
