Fuck that paparazzi asshole.

they’re very common in nations like North Korea and Russia, where their respective armed forces are regularly used to show political strength. warn people not to step out of line.

Why feel bad for them? They’re not only harming themselves economically by going to this woman’s “church” and by voting Republican but harming all of us. They’re the fucking problem. I don’t feel for people so fucking ignorant that they’d commit economic suicide to spite others and that’s what they’re doing: screwing…

It is not about alienating Russia, actually. Putin has shown a clear disdain for international norms, such as invading Ukraine, menacing the Baltics and Poland. It would be one thing if Putin wanted to respect their neighbors’ autonomy, but they do not.

He is due to appear before the Senate for his confirmation hearing as Treasury Secretary on Tuesday…

In essence Trump’s campaign was so vociferously divisive and its victory against the Republican establishment so crushing that hes basically broken the spirit of the GOP and they will now do whatever he wants.

If I literally thought abortion = killing a baby, I’d be pretty dead set against it, too!

I think it counts. That’s the where the choice in being pro-choice comes in. As in, it wouldn’t be my personal choice, but each individual has the right to make a different choice. I think the anti-choice crowd has been really, really successful in driving this narrative that equates pro-choice as strictly…

Feminism is about giving women the power and opportunity to make their own choices, even if you disagree with said choice.

If you’re anti-abortion but respect that it’s your personal decision and are cool with letting others do whatever they want because they ALSO get to make that personal decision, by all means join us.

I think you can be a feminist and anti-abortion, but you can’t be a feminist and be anti-choice. Feminism isn’t about the right to “live out our womenhood.” It’s about working to liberate women from the oppression of the kyriarchy. Feminists don’t have to see abortion as an option for themselves, but attempting to…

Feminism is about equality through legal rights and changing outdated cultural attitudes. When you try to take away other women’s rights, you aren’t a feminist.

She’s absolutely right. Most of these plaintive calls to “understand” Trump voters seem to come from liberal white males. The most infuriating post in my Facebook feed was by a white male journalist, who said that using the terms “mansplaining” and “whitesplaining” were the kind of divisive rhetoric that was driving…

I have been a nurse for nearly 2 decades now, and I’ve spent half of that time working in the insurance industry. I spent a good portion of that time implementing ACA regulations. All of which is to say that I have a better understanding than most about what the ACA is and is not, and how insurance works.

I refuse to validate white men as victims in any of this, and I’m a white lady. All this bullshit is trickle-down white male supremacy.

I think she’s totally right. It isn’t even just about racism, although of course that touches every part of this. For example, I’ve been reading a lot of chatter about the ACA and the stuff people say is so fucking dumb. Not understanding what a repeal would mean, not understanding how insurance works, not…

Again I say, not everyone who voted for Trump is a racist (or a misogynist) but every single one decided it wasn’t a deal breaker. Every. Single. One.
