I have absolutely no horse in this redhead race, I just wanted to say that this was such a delicious, salty, cathartic comment to read. It’s the equivalent of a cat pushing shit off a counter and then hissing at unruly children (and fake redheads!). Thank you. 

Stories like these make my brain explode from the anger I still feel inside. I’m sorry that happened to you and it was not fair, not by any means.

I agree with this is much. But the reason it’s not called Women’s rights is because then our society actually would have to confront the reality that it’s still fighting against women having equal rights in the first place. The men who are pro-choice don’t care enough to fight for women and the men who are anti-choice

I’m so sorry you went through this and I share a lot of the same emotions for the same reasons. Not only that, I’m sure I’m older and therefore expected to be wiser, but it didn’t matter. I’m going to go out on a limb and say that, while I hated the idea of Google Glass when they launched, lately I’ve been feeling

This one may seem obvious, but:

I really do think the best way to go is the “Bodily Autonomy” angle. I mean, lots of these pro-birthers shout and scream about keeping the government out of *insert anything*. Of course they also seem to sell that core aspect of their belief system out as soon as government intervention gives them something they want,

I was assaulted by my roommate (not a relationship, thank god) and subsequently lost my apartment and my job. It’s a terrible thing to go through and I still suffer a bit of PTSD from it, over 2 years later.

Not gonna lie, I'm a little hurt that you misspelt Tig Notaro's name.

I like the mix of “incognito” and “look at me”

And even now as she recounts the story she is being gracious to them because she knows any other way to talk about it would make her “emotional” or “ungrateful” or [insert any other coded racist bullshit here].

God I wish Shade Court would come back for this. I hate that she was chastised for being too emotional, but goddamn I love her for saying out loud in public. Idk if her telling the truth was shady or not, but good on her for telling the truth. 

Apparently, it wasn’t just her own name she declined to say with 60 Minutes’s requisite lifelessnes, but she was also told she had “too much emotion” in her voice while reporting out stories. “So I was working on pulling myself down and flattening out my personality — which, for me, is actually not such a good thing,”

I immediately think of what must be going on inside their minds while holding those smiles. 

These people that call Meghan and Harry “minor royals” and claim Meghan is an attention seeking social climber are the same ones that are mad that H&M want a wee bit of time and privacy. I call bullshit. They can’t have it both ways.

Right around the time of the Kavanaugh trials, I was dealing with a work situation where I was routinely getting verbally abused by my drunk, extremely renowned professor boss. I would repeatedly report the behavior, nothing would happen. Coupled with the verdict of the Kavanaugh trials and verdict + past trauma with

As a domestic abuse victim, and you know, a non-psychopath, it fucking enrages me to see for how long Johnny Depp’s abuse was coddled by people around him and how many people including his exes, managers, whatever, came out of the woodwork to protect him, lie for him, and excuse his abuse publicly when most of them

Do they become equally hysterical when dentists pull out teeth? 

What she said is exactly what I said when I read his response. Of course he doesn't remember. He does this all the time. We've seen him do it ourselves on many occasions on camera in public. This is what he does. It wouldn't be at all notable to him.
