Beautifully described; thank you.

Can someone please explain to me how Iowa can vote for Barack Obama twice in the presidential election and the same voters continue to re elect a white supremacist shitbag like Steve King?

I’m seeing a lot of criticism for Kim Weaver in the comments here (especially in the greys). This story is not about her qualifications as a candidate, especially since she is no longer a candidate. This story is about the abuse she suffered while a candidate, which should not be tolerated regardless of the candidate’s…

Wait... we’re really wondering why someone who was sentenced to 5 years for stealing $120 would be afraid of standing trial for armed robbery?

Lol. He is a stud. To later be played in the movies by Matt Damon.

Uh....no. Correct pronouns are not a privilege to be revoked if someone steps out of line, commits a crime, etc. Just use the right fucking pronouns and stop whining about it. Singular “they” has been in use in the English language for ages and is widely considered correct, anyhow:

Congratulations to Ms. Heard on her relationship with a member of Trump’s science and technology council who underpays his factory workers, has spent over a decade making insane promises to start commercial space flight which never come to pass, and who once revealed a plan for a high-speed rail line between Los…

Second dead judge, both POC, in a matter of days feels worrisome.

No, they BELIEVE it was a suicide. And even then that’s just the word from some reporter at the Post. If it happened this afternoon then they’ve been investigating this for less than 9 hours. Until they police/coroner can actually investigate of course they’re going to tell the press at first that they believe there…

Is that how people commit suicide though? If she’d jumped from a bridge, in NY freakin City, somebody would have seen her jump. Do people frequently kill themselves by jumping into rivers? Just asking because you seem so sure.

 I don’t believe it’s a suicide. She was a successful black Muslim woman in a position of authority. That will poss off both racists and sexists.

Wow, do I have news for you. Literally everyone uses software they hate for work that is insecure and generally shitty. Word is arguably one of the least infuriating that I run into. Sure, technically Google Docs is an alternative, but receiving phishing emails designed to look like links to Google Docs is just as…

Because my documents do look better in Word than in Google Docs. And, oh, I’m a lawyer so I don’t want my documents from my clients and for my clients on the cloud.

Because it’s the only approved word processing software at my employer.

I wish we could just run screenings with subtitles. I really don’t understand why the non-deaf hate that so much.

Dude, am the only “minority” in my Master’s program. We have a mix of teachers, social workers, and npo therapists and be quite honest some of them are...uhm...fuckwits? These people decide whether you get to keep your child, teach your kids, or work with seriously at risk populations. Half voted for the racist…

These kinds of people who become teachers use their positions of authority to justify their racism (confirmation bias), and ad opportunities for micro aggression towards their students.

Don’t let someone’s line of work fool you into thinking they care about the people and clients they serve. I worked for a nonprofit that provide free services to indigent individuals and you will not believe how many super Conservatives who hated poor people worked there. One of my coworkers used to drone on about how…

It’s funny that she’s an ESL instructor, when, judging by her messages, she barely has any mastery over the English language herself.

“...and that she is an ESL instructor at a local community college.” What.The.Fuck.
