Someone was trying to figure out who would play him on SNL, and I couldn't picture anyone else in the role but a pile of pubic hair clippings.

I didn't notice that but did laugh at "Panic at the Disco's Brendon Urie" because they could have just said Panic at the Disco; he is the whole band now.

Several Republicans have told me they voted for him not because they think he'll be good for the country, but just because "I'm Republican, what else was I supposed to do?" Um, I dunno - decide that if this is the best your party has to offer right now, maybe you should just let it hibernate until its sane again? Not…

Oh, yeah. There was only one . . . .

It's cute that this dude is like, "The world is complicated! In other news, biology and gender are simple, and seventy years of research is wrong. I've heard of one guy who had surgery and he regretted it, so everyone else who says it saved their lives and improved their mental health is just, uh - oh hey, what's that…

I told you not to come back until you read the article. You didn't read the article.

I'm admittedly fucking lost in the barrage of barely-explained bills at this point, but I know the original planned for backlash by putting a cap on federal Medicaid funds instead of price-matching federal funds to state funds. That way all the blame for kicking Mom off Medicaid would go the mean ol' governors and…

Trump's budget suggests that we sell wild mustangs to slaughterhouses so people in other countries can eat our delicious American horsemeat. Does that count?

According to a White House official, it's more even more strategic: in 2018 it'll force Rust Belt Democrats to either fight like hell against the ban and alienate "blue collar voters", or else alienate their own base. Which pretty much sounds like Bannon and Pence have teamed up for long-term evil.

You know the one department that doesn't seem to be piloted by cartoonish evil? The Labor Department. And I'm 1000% sure it's entirely because Trump didn't get his first choice and he didn't have a cartoonishly unqualified backup.

Yeah. I know Trump's administration is too much of a clusterfuck to reliably plan anything, but damn if this doesn't feel coordinated anyway.

But hey, at least us queer people in the civilian world are safe at work, right?

I wish it was a sh show instead of a constant screaming fire alarm show.

Repeat: you don't know what the fuck you're talking about. Repeat: if you want your concerns to be taken seriously, learn even one thing about the subject. Repeat: psychologists and biologists are significantly more informed and credible than you, a guy on the internet. Repeat: trans people have been around for…

I like the idea that all the celebrities on this show are conceptual painters. It's a like a fun alternate universe where America gives a crap about art.

"Transgender authority" isn't the "first alternative." 100 years of research on the validity of transgender identity is the authority. The "first alternative" has primarily been been shaming people and making them hide themselves until they're sick and self-hating and suicidal. Being trans isn't a mental disorder.…

I would say "You are aware that trans people are actually required to get therapy if they decide to get surgery, right? And in fact they can't if a licensed psychologist - i.e., someone more qualified to diagnose a mental disorder than you - doesn't say that surgery would actually improve their mental health, right?"…

Your quoted portion does contain the particular sentence that made me roll my eyes back into my head: “That lets the misogynists and homophobes and racists seem like the rebels: ‘Well, we’re saying what people can’t say anymore.’” You can basically just reread my original comment to see what I think of this as a…

That's the one.

Its a turn inwards, to writing about Wonder Woman as the greatest feminist movie of all time, rather then any meaningful social struggle.
