My first reaction was positive; I believe it’s a good thing that despite all of the repression he was still able to admit who he was and be at peace with it. It’s far better than another queer person committing suicide because of the pressures of society.

The only people you have -ever- “helped” are the straight bigots who...

All I could think of during this replay is “Looks like slow Rugby”.

There have been three lawsuits and resulting firings over the incidents, but black employees said recently that trashy racist behavior hasn’t ceased

Great! Has anyone been convicted for the unlawful imprisonment or the torture?

This is the sort of thing that highlights how little he cares for the actual meaning of anything. It doesn’t matter that “National Emergency” should be demonstrably that, but rather it’s simple another tool at his disposal no matter what the name is. He reads things, is told stuff using words, and just hears what he…

I’m back to enjoy this all over again.

Reading the range of perspectives provided by these stories shows so much of what is being lost by the government, by the country as a whole, because of the shutdown. Things being lost at a person-by-person level. In theory there are things worth fighting for that justify shutting down the government. I would hope…

...the state adopted the ridiculous Lee-Jackson-King Holiday from 1984 to 2000

I’m in the camp where I’d rather not listen to what bullshit he has to say about MLK and the racial history of the United States. Skipping this would be of almost no note to me if it wasn’t for the moronic comments by Pence. This administration continues to provide darkest of comedy through news stories like these.…

This administration is using the shutdown and its effects to pick and choose which parts of the federal government to operate to the benefits of its masters in industry. Oil and gas easements are granted, but no inspections of facilities to ensure environmental and safety laws are conducted. Tax refunds are…

Haha yea

Guevara’s name is spelled incorrectly in the last paragraph.

I was looking across the boxscores this morning (Wednesday) and the numbers are nuts. I want to see an honestly incredible defensive team to upset all this. Obviously last night demonstrated that the Thunder don’t count.

It’s probably early, I didn’t see anything concrete in the AP article, but she’ll see time in a detention center for this, right? Choosing to impair your driving is essentially a DUI and everyone involved is lucky that she didn’t kill someone. Being this irresponsible with other people’s safety doesn’t deserve…

Maiysha covered their donation outline in her article (always good to read the whole thing) and reply in the comments.

A terrific short film. Masculine men have certainly achieved many things in history, but none of it has been improved as a direct result of toxic masculinity. For too long the bullies and bigots of the world have aligned their negative traits with that of simply being masculine. “Boys will be boys” in the context of…

How is this not the first bullet point? How many hotel rooms and for how long do you even have to rent them to get to this figure? I’m so tired of how much is wasted in this world.

I hadn’t heard of this woman before, so naturally I assumed “Laura Loomer” was her white-woman nickname bestowed by Splinter and this was an article about her following people around and being generally creepy.

So if this becomes the case, it’s a fact that whoever they are putting forward was a lower choice on the list than Kavanaugh.
