I am not saying I necessarily believe this, but people will argue that the seemingly unimportant things like the specific language we use are ultimately preventing the large scale change, because we need to examine the underpinnings of everything, including the stuff we just let pass us by without noticing, in order

There’s always a tweet.

Just change a manhole to a butthole 

Barstool offered him a job as Chief Barstool Officer. 

I’m more concerned with issues such as equal pay for equal work, addressing sexual harassment in the work place, and health care that doesn’t start from the assumption that the patient is male.  The term manhole doesn’t bother me a bit.  It’s a historical holdover.  No harm was meant in the name.  It’s nothing.  

“The History Channel crossed with Cinemax” nails the bizarre tonal mismatch I felt trying to watch this series. I like history. I don’t mind costume dramas. I don’t even mind bodice rippers. But I wasn’t expecting Alexandra Romanov (by most accounts an extremely conservative Lutheran in her upbringing) to go

I’ve always found it curious how the Romanoff family has been romanticized over the last 75 years. Obviously the full-whitewashing went into high gear during the cold war (authoritarian monarchy was preferable to reds!), and was ramped up with Anastasia (1956), though even that film knew to take a very cynical

What’s selling it for me right now is the bitchy, racist old lady. That was only episode one. Try it out! Does your dimension have those flying horses too? They’re awesome except they tend to poop while in flight...

Another infuriating, stark reminder that abusers don’t fit any specific profile, they’re everywhere. Apologies for apparently being one of the few commenters who don't find this funny.

The Athletic released a statement saying Keri has been indefinitely suspended.

Oh my god I was SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS and then I started it and suddenly this dude was being interviewed and I was like WAIT WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING and honestly it ruined everything for me, but I’m glad you enjoyed it. 

THOSE are the women I want to hear from. Those are the women we need to reach (if that is even possible).

This would have been 1000% better if they had just used real cats.

Richard Spencer can be on the segment to explain how owning slaves wasn’t racist enough.

So how long until CNN has him on because they feel it’s important to be impartial and present both sides of the slavery issue?

Yeah, pretending that the makeup of this panel is in any way representative is super disingenuous and misleading. Somewhere around 47% of white women voted for Trump, once you exclude the wildly inaccurate exit polling that the 53% number gets drawn from. That’s still bad. But let’s not pretend that these women

Another position (which is the one I run into with my Trump-voting female coworker) is that they stay willfully ignorant of the news. They act like the current political climate is just “so toxic” and “so complicated” and so irrelevant to their actual lives that they can’t even bother to care. So when asked about

The fact that they are TERRIFIED that they no longer matter is the entire point of Donald-fucking-Trump. So yes, we need to stop arguing and cajoling and attempting to reason with these people and find ways to win in spite of them.

Eh, I’m nor sure that these white women matter as much as they/we think they do. As Michael Harriot wrote earlier this month,
