“If I had a dollar for every woman who asked to take a selfie with me and who slipped an arm around me and let it drift down below the beltline, I’d have at least a hundred dollars. So this is poetic irony of a high order. But I’m just fine. I had a good long run and am grateful for it and for everything else.”

yeahhh having a voice baby

As someone who was sexually abused over many years, I can say with some authority that when you call MIMING TOUCHING someone’s breasts sexual assault you diminish the experiences of all of us who have actually been assaulted. I too am wildly disappointed with Al Franken and agree that picture was FUCKED UP- but IT’S…

So you just gonna post this Randi Rhodes promo on every post??? Hope you’re gettin paid

he’s touching her kevlar vest not her breasts. not even her clothing. it’s stupid and he should be ashamed for acting like a 13 yr old, but COME ON

THANK YOU! THIS, EXACTLY!

You think he should step down over this? I think we need him. I’m super disappointed in him and if I were the woman in the picture I’d be really pissed off too, this was extremely childish and offensive— but i don’t think this is something he should lose his job over. Also, I think to call this sexual assault is…

Neil DeGrasse Tyson has been the most painful so far.

Weird, cuz that’s literally what you said “Sometimes women bluntly proposition me (And then apologize profusely when I respond in befuddlement). Some times I bluntly proposition them. “ 

I didn’t want to believe the Neil DeGrasse Tyson accusation either, but there’s NOTHING in it for these people making the accusations. They’re past the point of having any legal discourse, they’re not getting paid, they are just making thousands of people around the world hate- so I BELIEVE THEM! http://www.patheos.co…

Maybe...stop bluntly propositioning people you work with? Just spitballin here....

how’s the under-eye smudge factor w those?

How would you say the smudge factor is?

ex presidents get security detail for the rest of their lives

uh oh, did you miss your nap time honey? gettin a lil cranky over there! maybe shout out to mom upstairs and ask if she’ll bring you a snack?

WHere’s the bridge buddy? WTF is ideological purity? You’re reaching so hard here, all because it’s impossible for you to wrap your mind around the fact that you can admire a woman’s body and intellect at the same time?? That’s really a contradiction to you?

Dude. I don’t think anyone wants to condemn someone for appreciating the aesthetics at a beauty contest, not really sure where you got that from. The problem is not people thinking that women are are pretty. The problem is them thinking that because they see an attractive woman they feel they are entitled to touch…

They are using it as a PLATFORM! Is that really so hard for you to understand??? Yes it’s a beauty contest, but it gives women who normally wouldn’t have the country’s attention a big spotlight with which they can use to discuss things that are important to them, and not butt related. It’s hard for me to accept…

Yet, here you are. Having dialogue with me. Weird.

welp, that certainly explains a lot. I’m sad for you.
