Interesting to watch the fall of America happen in real time. The history books will not look kindly on the right wing.

George Will, despite his pretensions of being a person who possesses a vast wealth of knowledge, has always been a simple minded idiot.

Which is what Hanna Gadsby was talking about. Men set the terms for themselves and their friends, and men get to change the rules to suit their arguments whenever they want.

We’re liars. Something about our uteruses makes it impossible to tell the truth. Maybe our periods are to blame? I don’t know the absurd reasoning behind it, but that’s the abhorrent reality of our world.

The full op-ed is great and everyone should read it. And she fucking name-checks Spielberg and his Time’s Up pin! Can’t wait for him to release a statement saying he had NOOOOOO IDEAAAAAAAA that had happened! They’re all fucking assholes.

I hate that she has to consistently say he did this when there’s video proof to back her up and everyone is like, “Oh, but he would never do this. He’s such a great guy.” It’s like Brett fucking Kavanaugh all over again. Men are believed, women are doubted.

Shortly after his initial sentencing the little turd was caught on the MBTA in clear violation of the curfew which was part of his parole. A reporter recognized him, started chatting him up and he didn’t deny who he was or what he was doing but it was okay because he was visit his girlfriend or something. Clearly…

This is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez doing so many videos about how Congress works isn’t just genius branding, it’s a public service. Lazy, greedy politicians like these have been getting away with very little work on the taxpayers’ dime because of a lack of transparency, and because prior to Donald too few people were…

Since this is a post about books and reading, I will go ahead and be a grammar pedant. It is “affect”.

The answer is usually: “No idea. We’ll talk with your insurance and let you know the price in 2-3 months (when it’s conveniently too late for you to turn down the treatment).”

She is afraid of his Fox and Friends loving sisters who are farmers.

I dunno, I think having the words she stole permanently tattooed on her is...

Whenever someone stands up for themselves, the ones in power will always try to stop it.  Every step forward takes power away from the ruling class and they’re scared to death of sharing power with those they oppressed.

It’s never the woman you know either. It’s never the opinionated, happy-seeming, confident woman being abused. It’s never the happy mother, the dedicated wife, the accomplished physician. That woman would never be abused. She would stop it. She would not put up with that kind of thing. Her upbringing didn’t…

Twice in my life I didn’t get a flu vaccine: autumn of 2008, leading to a spring 2009 flu, and again in 2011, leading to me getting the flu in 2011.

Trust me, I yell this loudly and often. I have this weird immune system where I’m either never sick, or I’m always asymptomatic, because the only two times I’ve been ill in the last decade have been food poisoning. That doesn’t mean I’m cool with Typhoid Mary-ing the CTA, my office or my gym.

Yeah, the best part of AOC’s game is that she hits the next generation of movement conservatives right where it hurts: in their pretension.

I skipped the shot one year because there was a shortage. They asked healthy, young, adults not to use a dose that could go to the elderly and those with compromised immune systems. I got the flu, and then pneumonia. It took me over three months to fully recover. I joked to friends and family after that in the future I…

Oh, shit! I’ve been wasting my life drinking this “50% Taste” SWILL!

Across myriad categories of consumer goods, from packaged food to health & beauty to pharmaceuticals, the big secret is that most “private label” (or generics in pharma) are actually made by the name brand manufacturer. The discounts come from the economy of scale; Kroeger or CVS - and especially Trader Joe’s -…
