She still hasn’t decentered herself. Almost the first thing out of her mouth was “That impacted my life so deeply on so many levels and it was devastating.” And then a bunch of passive-aggressive BS about how only she knew the truth of the situation but she was willing to put all that aside to be a good “ally.” She’s…

Yeah, everything about this article screamed TERF-y rich middle aged white feminist. I found it particularly cringeworthy for her to compare trans exclusion to white women barging into black women’s spaces. It’s like intersectional feminism just sailed right over her head. But she’s really committed to digging into…

Yeah, she may have been incredibly progressive 20 years ago, but things have moved on, and she has not. 

That’s not even TERF-lite, that’s just straight TERF bullshit. She’s saying trans women aren’t “real” women because they don’t have her preferred reproductive systems. Fuck right off with that bullshit trying to say trans women are telling cis women to get out of the way. How about trans women just want to be…

Black women over a size 6 being considered attractive and sexually desirable/sexually active is only “new” to the mainstream (i.e., wypipo). Being very thin is not the beauty standard for Black women, and has never been in my lifetime (though I’m not THAT old ;-)), so the relationship to body positivity is…

I think it’s too early for me to really know my top contender, but I’m mostly feeling #nooldwhitemen2020. We’ve had enough to last us for the next 200 years.

The problem is not that Joe Biden doesn’t know how to apologize. The problem is that he refuses to apologize.

First, take a deep breath. Second, when she receives positive feedback she’s happy to share that. She retweets the positive fashion coverage she receives. But when it’s negative it’s all, “why are women judged so unfairly?!??” You can’t have it both ways. Also, saying you don’t like an outfit is hardly tearing someone…

I haven’t read GFY in a long time, but my memory is that they were very affectionate towards a lot of ugly clothes and the people who wear them, and genuinely loved some of them. I remember them being surprisingly warm for a blog with such a catty premise, and it always felt like the target of criticism was the fashion…

I’m glad he chose to speak with the Root. I live in Massachusetts and have a VERY hard time understanding why he thinks he needs to get in this race.

Or if he just stayed in his fucking car...

When you say “grandstanding,” are you implying she's being disingenuous (for media attention or whatever)?

It’s not grandstanding, it’s taking an actual stand and fighting for what is right. Pelosi and the anti-impeachment crowd can create a list of triggers that would lead to an impeachment, but they don’t even want to do that. They are afraid of their own shadow.

Okay this is for Bill.

As someone who was 15 when this happened this documentary will hit a raw spot with me. Especially since the current piece of shit stinking up the white house, lower case intentional, has yet to apologize for his shameful fucking NYT ad. Fuck the NYPD, fuck Donald Trump and fuck anyone who helped railroad these kids.…

The sheer gall of this European man to take the name of Swami Vivekananda!! The original Swami Vivekananda was one of the greatest spiritual leaders India ever had, the spiritual reformer and support behind many of Gandhi’s philosophies and actions, and of the Indian Independence movement. He brought Hinduism (and…

“My first instinct was to protect her but they told me to step back, so I could only watch. I told them they didn’t need to do that.”

Rahm and the police chief have announced they will be suing the officers who lied on the police report for the cost of the investigation.

As another commetor pointed out, she is correct in noting that the far left congresspeople total abut 5 people. It’s important to remember that our congress is made up of members who reflect the positions of their constituents—wherever on the spectrum that may be. Pelosi is absolutely correct in stating that the…

She’s talking about progressive members of the House. And she’s not wrong. Most Democrats nationally are not that progressive and it’s reflected in who we elect.
