This country is fucking stupid. Obama is going to leave with a high approval rating of around 60%, with a majority approving of how he handled major things like terrorism, the economy, and health care. Meanwhile, instead of choosing the candidate Obama endorsed and who promised to build on his legacy, they chose…

Oh how he will be missed. I am so happy I have Friday off of work so I can lounge in my pjs and ugly cry during the inauguration.

I hope people are paying attention to Kesha’s story. She’s the perfect example of how oppressive, abusive and predatory people in the entertainment industry can be especially towards young women. She was barely 18 and living in her car when she got signed to an extremely restrictive contract and is now tied to a guy…

Kesha’s situation has been one of the most disturbing showbiz stories in years. I’ve been following this pretty closely as it’s unfolded; and it’s been a Kafkaesque nightmare that is disturbing for anyone just observing from afar.

I was never a fan of her early stuff (as it seemed manufactured and fake), but I will say seeing her perform with Ben Folds gave me a new-found respect for her. Made me see her as more than a studio’s creation.

I felt the same way about Lady Gaga once I heard her play the piano.

Taken a toll on her career? It’s the only reason she’s in the news.

Seriously I’m so sick of people ignoring and suppressing discussion of all the horrid unending controversies because talking about the room being on fire is somehow divisive.

Gots to agree, Livia. Cheeto Hitler is not a normal candidate, he is not a normal President-elect, he is an active danger to the republic, our shared values as a people, and to our national sovereignty. Selling out our government to Vladimir Putin, and arranging his campaign and his office-holding for personal…

Since Jane who very much is an ignorant slut dismissed my comment, I’ll repost it here:

He’s president. I hate it, you hate it. But at the end of the day, the inauguration isn’t about him, it’s about our Democratic ideals and our belief in the peaceful transition of power, even when it goes to people we disagree with or despise. So I stand with Barack Obama, Hillary and Bill Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, and,…

prediction: he will go on a record-low number of international trips, instead inviting foreign dignitaries to do state visits here (and stay at his hotel).

A part of me is like “we’ll get back to normal one day.” But another part of me is like “we opened the gates of hell. Can we EVER go back?”

STOP NORMALIZING THIS MONSTER!!!! Fuck!!

This, this is why we miss Roger Ebert.

It’s important to note the huge difference between Melania’s planned renovations of the WH vs other first ladies. This is entirely for Melania, no one else, and adds nothing to the charm or character of the house. This is gross and I’m disappointed it’s being reported with a shrug.

Melania Trump becoming FLOTUS after the glorious being that was Michelle Obama is making me want to vomit. What is this fluff ball going to do for children, for women, for girls? NOT A GD THING, I PROMISE YOU.

He’s currently inviting (read: begging) people on his personal facebook page to attend for free. I registered for tickets and obviously will not be going. I will be making my sign for the NYC women’s march while watching literally anything else on tv instead.

I reserved some using a temporary fake email addy. Whole bunch of Twitterworld is doing this. Who knows if it’ll really make any difference, but it felt brutishly satisfying.

Is it possible to get some of these free tickets and then just not show up, thereby contributing to the lack of a crowd?
