I just don’t even care anymore. That’s what happens when there’s a mass shooting every other day. It’s just too much.

Agreed on people and groups, but I feel pretty comfortable blaming this (and let’s go with ALL OF THIS) on the ready availability of guns.

This might be screaming into the void, but can we please avoid leaping to wild conclusions before we have all of the answers? This was obviously a terrible event, but it won’t be made any better by wild speculation and finger-pointing. Let’s get the facts before we start calling for action against groups or people who…

I fucking love cheesy empowerment anthems for my running playlist. Going to add this post haste despite the fact that Katy is not my fave generally.

+1 carlvenkman. My guess is there’s about two or three really sad dudes, and they are such dudes, who create several burners in order to post hateful shit. Maybe they snicker as their shit gets posted, but the sadness and emptiness of their existence doesn’t escape them. They know.

Thanks cat. Much appreciated because I'm getting some replies that are amazing in their hate. Well, not really surprising. I think we all need to speak up so our leaders, who I truly believe would like to see change, won't be afraid to actually do something to control the gun sellers who care nothing about the…

I don't need a gun to feel secure and I'm a coward?

Some of my favorite people. And they were awesome for speaking out. But until our politicians have the guts to make changes, real changes, against the gun dealership lobby, nothing will change. Because you can wrap all this in the American flag and 2nd amendment bullshit, but it’s all about selling guns and fuck the…

I can’t believe a corporate entity allowed this to not only air, but to lead off their big, self-congratulatory show piece and wash away the fantasy that sports exist in a compartment separate from the rest of society.

Bruh bruh:

It’s a very exciting new era where some athletes have exited “the bubble” and are trying to make an impact on the larger, outside world. They are facing criticism form having genuine thoughts and ideas that transcend sports. I hope this trend continues. They are trying to be role models, which is of greater value than…

Have you seen the supercut of her coworkers?

Part of being a feminist is fighting for the rights of women who don’t fight for our rights, too. It sucks, because she is a shitty person in a number of ways, but what she is doing right now will help women, and as feminists we can simultaneously criticize the harm she has done, and support her winning this case. By…

also, ‘it didn’t happen to me, so I support him!’ is so, so terribly weak and cowardly.

It’s disgusting to watch Ailes’ employees ally themselves with a misogynist and savage Carlson’s reputation in the press. At the level of legal strategy, I really applaud Carlson for filing suit against Ailes personally in New Jersey - where the courts are much less likely to enforce arbitration clauses - rather than…

I really appreciate where Brett Baier is coming from. People say sexual harassment from male superiors is commonplace but all the bros I’ve worked for have been totes cool to me, even letting me see some of the tape they’ve secretly shot of the women’s bathroom so I’m inclined to believe the women are just crazy…

For all the people who need an explanation on why “All lives matter” is racist: It is a direct refutation of the Black Lives Matter protest movement, which is not claiming black supremacy, but instead an implicit acknowledgment that black lives (also) matter.

I saw a tweet that said basically that Nintendo did in 24 hours what Michelle Obama was trying to do for 8 years, get kids to go outside and exercise.

Mike Huckabee is the pits. If you find yourself in an argument with someone like him who is the worst, I recommend this study. Bayesian analyses are not exactly simple to understand, but the abstract makes it really clear: “we did the math, and it turns out black men are seriously way more in danger of being killed by…
