As a descendant of Italian and Irish immigrants, both wings of my family had to deal with the stigma of being the “other”. I won’t compare their experiences with those of African Americans at the time (who had it 100xs worse), but it’s a family folk tale that my grandfather stopped speaking Italian for life after a…

All immigrant groups in the US assimilate. They all bring a bit of their home country to this one, changing it just a bit, but they all assimilate. The older immigrant groups assimilated and the newer ones are assimilating—faster, even. I’m the son of two immigrants and I learned English from Mr. Rogers and Sesame…

I am very confused. My photos from 1989 are not “old-looking”. They look like normal photos. Nor do I think Kim is deep enough for purposeful symbolism.

I think perhaps people are mad, not that Hillary lost, but that Trump’s “win” seems to be predicated on the fact that the entire narrative of the election was based on a steady trickle of emails that were hacked and leaked by a hostile foreign state working on his behalf. And the fact that it seems increasingly likely…

Aren’t you?

heh-back with republicans were admired I guess.

Nope. The scientific term is “gin blossoms”. That’s what happens when you’re a severe, late-stage alcoholic. So he’s a lush in addition to being a white supremacist, anarchist, and general walking excrement.

It’s all about to fall down soon, this story is nothing actually. Trump’s tax returns got hacked recently, but not just for this last year, but for decades. Apparently he’s been working to launder money for Russian Oligarchs for years now with indirect approval by Putin. The latest example was the hotel he “sold”…

I think I’ve reached outrage fatigue. Everything these people do is so vile and obscene, that I’ve stopped knowing how to respond. So yeah, he’s profiting off his presidency while he’s destroying the environment, public education, healthcare, women’s rights, migrant rights, and American democracy, lying with every…

Good for them! It is insane that we have a president who is using his position as THE FUCKING PRESIDENT to make more money for his companies/bring in more clientele.

I didn’t get a chance to watch this yet, do you think you MAYBE couldn’t have put the spoiler in the headline??? I know it’s not fuckin’ Game of Thrones or anything, but I do actually unironically enjoy this show, and I’m kind of mad that you ruined it for me.

Just aired last night and it’s not even on demand yet. Thaaaaanks for the giant impossible to avoid spoiler.

I feel your pain. Child care/pet care/housekeeping/dining are all things that men are perfectly willing to pay other people to do until it comes to their partner. Then, not only is it not worth being paid for, it’s magically not work.

What a bummer for that dude who has to watch his kids. This is on par with parents who say they are “babysitting”.

Anyone who will say “the reason why I don’t feel bad is because it’s me being honest and living in my truth. If I don’t say how I feel, then I’m doing myself a disservice and I think I’m doing the girls a disservice” can be pretty quickly written off as a tedious asshole. No, you cannot say anything you want to say…

Dude, it’s a troll. He’s playing insane rabid feminist.

Anything that causes him stress helps. Anything that forces him to froth at the mouth and spout lies for all the world to see helps. Anything that makes him look foolish helps. It won’t convince the die hards but it puts even more pressure on the Republicans and keeps our resistance reminded why we have to fight.…

I have thoughts.

I haven’t spoken to my father or brother since the election. So yeah, it seems like there’s a number of us.

Former registered Republican here. I bowed out of that party in 2012 when it was apparent that they hadn’t represented my interests in a good long time. I knew Donald Trump would be an embarrassment to the country and himself, but he’s just over the top with everything.

Mr. Trump, I have some news for you: you WON the…
