There is a very real degree that if your job is to be on a “sit around and talk about issues and culture” show and you’re five years behind on a show that is A Big Deal and just had its series finale, that’s kind of on you. (The viewers, not so much but then again I gave myself a four day media and internet blackout…

As much as I dislike MM, she’s not totally in the wrong here. If you are four years behind on a show that everyone is talking about then you’re stuck getting some spoilers. For everyone’s reference, Season 4 of GoT started the same month that Captain America: The Winter Soldier was released. We’re not holding off on…

MCCAIN: What would make you happy coming out of my mouth right now? I’m genuinely curious.

Battles are fought where the enemy is met. And the enemy is queerphobia, and I will fight it when I can and where I can. Courts won’t decide that my enby husband isn’t in danger just because they’re trans.

They’re literally in the same exact weight and size class. They have the same general bodily structures and abilities - anything else is just variance in physical propensity for height and width of shoulders. No one was asking Rhonda to fight someone 100 lbs her superior, they’re asking her to fight the exact build…

Since I’ve been commenting around, sure. Okay. So what I was addressing was specifically the hateful, disparaging comments that Rousey made, but there was also some kind of argument about competitive advantage buried somewhere in the bigotry. So let’s talk about why she’s not only hateful, she’s also just wrong! Just…

Did you know that there is literally no population more in danger of being murdered in America than trans women of color?

It’s a stunt casting of a woman who has nothing but inflammatory comments to make and believes in truly hurtful, awful rhetoric that exists purely to discredit folks in vulnerable positions.

You don’t go out planning to die on any hill. You charge up that fucker guns blazing and banner flying and every once in a while you get to the top and knock those wrong-headed sons of bitches down.

Aside from just being an unabashed, unapologetic asshole, I honestly can’t think of a bigger red flag to tip you off on how awful a person really is than their use of “SJW”.

Anyone who uses SJW in a negative connotation is just admitting they’re the worst, and should be avoided/ignored at all costs.

There is nothing in the goddamned world like the absolute fragility of folks who occupy majority (race/ethnicity/sex/sexual orientation/religious affiliation) status feeling like they might have to share the pie they’ve previously had 99% of.

Think about this for just a moment: Every time someone screams about “SJWs,”…

The decisions the SCOTUS will most likely hand down on these cases, reversing decades of LGBTQ progress, are some of the biggest factors in my never ending resentment towards the utter myopia many in the “Sending a message to the establishment/she didn’t inspire me/both sides are the same” crowd displayed by not…

You have nothing to contribute.

Fuck you.

This is the OJ/LAPD thing all over again. Yes, OJ murdered his wife, Nicole Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman AND yes, the LAPD were up to shenanigans and were embarrassingly corrupt. The two were not mutually exclusive. Yes, Jussie Smollett faked his own beat-down (probably to raise his profile as an entertainer…

What bullshit logic. I was gay before I was molested and knew I liked boys from as early as kindergarten. The molestation reinforced my fears, yes - I thought I deserved it and had attracted the predator by the nature of my orientation, but it didn’t fucking foment in me any affection towards the abuser nor other men…
