In many ways, our country has been very good to our Jewish population. I’m especially proud of George Washington for his famous communication with a leading NY synagogue.

Does it have to be a wall? Because we have a bean.

Male mediocrity being awarded is so common that it’s not even newsworthy anymore.

And then there’s this fucking asshole.

When she nails it she is so fucking brilliant. 12 Angry Men was amazing, turned my husband into a fan.

I love her. It sounds like her relationship with Tig Notaro is ... complicated. But this is pure genius. Pure.fucking.genius.

I also grew up largely oblivious to anti-Semitism, till college, when I was suddenly seemingly surrounded by (and very much dating) Jewish Americans who were keenly aware of it.

He grew up in the US, and if he was placed in a special class for students who qualify under the disability category of Emotional Disturbance, it wasn’t due to parent choice. It was based on psycho-educational testing. I’ve been in ED classes. The kids there are in the class because they need smaller classes with more…

I believe they are filming the stage production before much of the main cast leaves. Squuueeeee!

Mateen reportedly used multiple Facebook accounts to post pro-ISIS messages. He also checked to see if his attack was trending in the midst of it.

Yeah, but what I really wish they’d do more of is film the stage versions and release THOSE. I don’t care about a big budget Wicked movie that is sure to disappoint. I want to see the stage version! Thankfully, they have at least FILMED Hamilton, even if it takes years to be released. :)

Crazy and thirsty for fame on social media is an absurd combination.

Right? It reaches a point where it’s offensive/fucked up to dismiss someone’s own views about their sexuality. I’m tired of these gossip-obsessed no-lifes insisting they know everything about celebrity sex lives.

A lady *and* Jewish! Who reads! What is the world coming to?

Wow. This is really, really not okay. This is classic bi-erasure and it’s really harmful. Bisexuals face higher rates of anxiety, depression, suicide, and intimate partner violence than gay or lesbian people, and this is a big part of why.

I love that Vogue considers Schumer’s totally unsurprising fondness for the New York Times to be a literary eccentricity requiring ethnographic contextualization:

Has he said this? Or are you erasing someone’s bisexuality with an unsupported opinion? Bi people don’t like that. And we bite! :)

Thank you. I am so sick of bi erasure

I literally had the same convo with someone the other day when they were like “see I told you he was transitioning”. I was like: yh but at the time you didn’t know you were right, you were just being a douche bag and saying “I don’t care what he says, he was wearing nail varnish, he’s transition” :/ I know cisgender…
