There are 2 types of people that work around him in the White House:

adults these days are the worst, suddenly thinking the youth of the world has gone to shit. i’m like bro, THAT WAS US

What the fuck are you talking about? Kids have always been little shits. My family is from the South, so every story is about mailboxing or throwing rocks at cars.

the nut on the bus goes pound pound pound

Yeah, I don’t buy the “accidentally” idea. Like if you look at Olivia Nuzzi’s tweets, she’s been worshipping Ann Coulter for years, long before she was doing features profiling her and other conservatives. Sunderland is likely the same, he just saw a better career path in the “feminist liberal” beat.

Holy shit Ijeoma Oluo is Lindy’s sister-in-law?? How fucked that Lindy had to leave Twitter, because I bet the two of them together is highly entertaining and unstoppable.

That’s a helpful perspective. No sarcasm.

I just don’t get why all these helpful commenters looking for validation in their wokeness (on both sites, to be clear) AREN’T gray.

Do you follow her SIL, Ijeoma? She is equally awesome. I’m in awe of both of them.

This is how I feel about all the helpful white commenters on The Root.

I have White women at my work who have told they don’t trust decades old White friends now. DECADES.

Right there with you. I truly feel for all PoC and will never stop working for equality for us all, but I don’t mind being called Becky and told to go sit down. I wouldn’t trust me any more than I trust men right now.

Yes. This is my takeaway from this whole week as well. No wonder feminism has stalled. “Progressive” men cannot be trusted.

This is so correct. His first reaction was to hit back at her, hard, because she dared to say who she was. That was so threatening to him and his worldview that he had to make sure she was mocked, but didn’t have the fortitude to do it himself. I hope he never works again.

Lindy’s resilience, strength, and tremendous writing are aspirational.

These things need to be banned until the long term health-effect of living near them can be properly studied and vetted. There’s strong evidence of negative side effects from the constant low frequency pulse of the turbine’s motion. They built one near a friend of mine’s uncles house. His wife suddenly got herpes out…

You know why Bobby Jindal is a Republican? Becasue if he ran as a Democrat, this is what the Republicans would have done to him.

Sadly, in America he never would have gotten a first term

I live paycheck to paycheck.

Meghan Markle, Sarah Rafferty, & the incomparable Gina Torres are the best things about Suits. I’m so glad Meghan Markle has found (lasting?) happiness with hot ginger prince. Also, how did they even meet?!
