Saw this movie in the theater. I was giving it serious “really?” face and I turned to my friends to make a snarky comment. They were all weeping uncontrollably. I never felt more alone.

An executive order, huh? It’s almost like Republicans are only against them when a black guy is issuing them...

It’s an awesome idea, however it’s not always doable. My family disowned me over this election and over me speaking out against the bullshit Trump was spewing. I grew up in a white ass town where everyone votes republican and just mentioning the word liberal gets you mocked (or in my case, disowned.) and I get that…

I hear you. I lost my entire family over this election. My mother told me to shut up or move to Canada. My father calls me a liberal crybaby who needs to “suck it up.” All i have left is my cancer survivor husband, who at 36 will be categorized as someone with a pre-existing condition and denied medical treatment for…

No one is arguing that white women haven’t left POC out in the cold about a million times. But Jesus Christ, maybe cut these first timers some slack? Not all of us grow up with liberal parents. Some of us grow up in white bubbles that we don’t break until we move the fuck away and start trying to listen and learn. A…

i admire your optimism but there’s no way it’ll happen. No one suffers for lying in America. If anything, you just get promoted

I’ve stopped fearing death and am now considering it. Living in a country without healthcare, art, national parks, education, etc (to say nothing of civil rights) isn’t a life. It’s an existence, but it’s not life. There’s nothing left. What’s the point?

This. This election has destroyed any sense I once had of being alive. Now, I simply exist. There’s nothing to live for anymore.

I agree with you except - Waters doesn’t represent a “poor black community.” She represents a very diverse (15% white, 23% African American, 46% Hispanic, 12% Asian, per Wikipedia) pretty middle class area of SoCal that encompasses several towns (including parts of LA.)

Because we’re all told that smaller women are more “feminine” and therefore more attractive. Some of those tall dudes really get off on feeling huge, just like those 5'1" girls who will only date dudes over 6' because it makes them feel small and delicate. When you’re a tall woman or a short man, you don’t really get…

Why is it always on liberals (for lack of a better term) to reach out and empathize with conservatives? Where are the right wing think pieces trying to empathize with all the people who are terrified due to the outcome of this election? There aren’t any. Because all this “try to understand! We’re not racists! We’re…

This was my life and I’m only 5'9"! I was into several 5'6"/5'7" dudes who were just not. having. it. because I was way too tall for them. And all the tall guys wanted women 5'4" and under. Needless to say I didn’t date a lot.

I had a fibroid a few years ago and before I got it removed it both expelled my IUD (that’s how I discovered I had a fibroid!) and caused me to bleed almost constantly. In the last 6 months before I had it removed, I think I may have had 10 days where I didn’t at least spot. It was a nightmare.

No, my takeaway is a lot of Trump voters are upset about how quickly our culture has changed over the last 15 years and they voted for him because he promised to give them a country they understand again. They want that idealized version of America that Madison Ave gave us in the 50s (even though that country never…

I honestly think it’s because they thought everyone would stop talking about things like this the second Trump was elected. It didn’t happen and they’re so. upset. And they’re gonna keep being upset because we have no intention of dropping the subject.

I think a lot of these people think that now that Trump has been elected that they’ll never have to hear about anyone who isn’t a white guy again. Gay marriage is over and women in positions of power will just step down so white guys can take their places. They don’t understand that shit isn’t going to happen. They…

People are giving you a lot of shit on this thread but I agree with you 100%. I’m not a 1st responder. I’m not a doctor. I’m not in politics. There is literally nothing that is so important at my job that requires I be on call 24/7. I’m happy to work my ass off while I’m at work during business hours, I’m happy to…

I left a place with a low cost of living to move to a large coastal city specifically because there were no jobs where I was. I’m supposed to move back to a place with no economic opportunity just so I can vote blue in a red state? Yeah, no thanks. (If we ever get more companies to allow people to work remotely…

God, I feel all of this. I did eventually marry, but that decade where I didn’t have anyone yet every woman I knew bounced from relationship to relationship with less than a month in between, each time expecting me to be the emotional support for them? And you’re just sitting there wondering when you are going to get…

Yep. Husband and I were already leaning towards no kids, but we had decided that if it happened it was ok. Not now. Our planet is fucked and there’s no saving it. I’m not bringing a child into this if I can help it.
