I swear to all that is holy....every time I see one of their clan dressed in monochromatic beige, posed before a monochromatic white wall, with an occasional piece of monochromatic grey furniture.....I get the urge to stab things.  

Depends. Do you want the kids to shut down amd just quit the first time they lose and get treated like ‘a loser’ and mocked?

Lady All Lives Matter

‘Cause Black men over and over again continue to embrace patriarchal ideals and pseudo-intellectual ideas that just perpetuate the misogyny (primarily misogynoir), anti-Semitism, homophobic/transphobic, xenophobic B.S. of white men (but now with a touch of “STRONG BLACK MAN”™).

They’re scum and their fans are scum.

“...there was absolutely no way to believe Beethoven was a black man given the evidence, and that we’d have to re-imagine the entire landscape and history of Western music if so.”

that’s the thing. this baby thing is super niche, which on one hand would make it expensive, and on the other- who’s paying that much for it unless they’re renting royal jewels for the shoots?

I used to produce commercial shoots. I don’t know where she arrives at the $250k - $350k cost per shoot unless she is already paying herself handsomely or she’s looking at multi-week sessions where everything is bought, not rented. 

Oh man. I have story that has been haunting my reality since the first month of the now ~13 years I have been at my current company.

You can’t muster the energy to begin to credibly and fairly rationalize what it is about her, her personality, her performances in the final few…

He doesn’t have to liquidate anything to donate it. He can simply transfer ownership of shares, bonds, physical assets. He could pay his fair share in taxes. He could cancel all of Amazon’s contracts with fossil fuel companies. He could have donated with no publicity to a foundation not in his name. Instead, he made…

Stocks are liquid assets.

Is there going to be post about Amber Heard and Johnny Depp? The deafening silence from mainstream blogs who claim even a hesitant link to feminism and reported widely on earlier developments of the case, is playing right into the hands of abuse deniers. 

Actually, I’m a master multi-tasker. And I’m also really good at prioritizing and picking my battles and not wasting my time on little shit that doesn’t matter.

Honestly, their defence is somewhat believable.

Sad that it took a cartoon to make me seek treatment for depression and substance abuse, but here we are. There were several dozen entirely too real moments in that show.

I felt the same when I saw the Truvada commercial for the first time, showing normal folks being normal (and a good percentage of them being queer). It’s wild to think about how far things have come but still so far to go.
