Literally this. If I hear one more time how this election was about “economic anxiety” and not racism I’m going to throw my TV out the window. The people that voted for 45 either wanted this exact thing, or they were so enamored with his “we will bring back the jobs” (he won’t) bullshit that they were willing to…

A good friend committed suicide in high school. She was beautiful, popular, hilariously funny, involved in tons of activities, and one day she hung herself. It was completely shocking. I know that the stereotype is the 13 Reasons Why version where a kid is bullied and gradually destroyed, but sometimes it isn’t like…

It blew my mind how many women voted against HRC and for Trump. It would be one thing if the other candidate were, say, a McCain or other politician who was not a misogynist to the degree that Trump is. But why did women vote for Trump???

I’ve read somewhere that it’s actually the people who seemed to “have it together” who are often the most successful suicides—people don’t see the warning signs and get them help. My uncle took his own life last summer and it was the same sort of situation; no one saw it coming—he had a successful career and had a…

It really falls into the same category as children and mentally handicapped - they can’t consent. Or, more specifically in the case of animals, we can’t be sure that they CAN consent. Gay people can consent. Animals can’t.

America!

I realize that you probably think you’re helping, but please stop helping.

There’s a small difference called absence of consent? That doesn’t justify an “ew” in your mind?

It probably didn’t occur to them that fornicating with animals was the sort of thing they’d need legislation about.

Argh! Don’t look at related stories: “You can barely get an abortion in Ohio, But Beastiality Is Still Legal”

Nor should they teach their daughters to do so. At 2 1/2, one of my girls told her (female) teacher that her vulva was hurting (she had diaper rash) and the teacher had NO IDEA what she was talking about. When she called me she said “Um your daughter said her, um, her VOLVO hurts?” I could not believe an adult woman…

Seriously. She’s not a hero, she’s a big ball of privilege and petty.

OJ had far better defense attorneys than Robert Kardashian, who had not practiced law for about 20 years, and Kardashian did not reactivate his license to be a volunteer defense attorney for OJ. He did it so that he couldn’t be compelled to testify to OJ’s treatment that he witnessed, or to the bag he, Robert,…

Kardashian wasn’t a defense attorney. He was a real-estate broker.

It’s really embarrassing when anyone uses that term, especially as no one seems to be weirded out by saying the word, “penis.” Acting ashamed of the word, “vagina,” only reinforces the stigma that it’s something to be ashamed of.

This is what I’ve been afraid of since Day One, doubly so since I live in San Francisco, and the California coast is likely to be the first target in a war against N. Korea.

I don’t think you’d have to be an asshole to not want captions on the film you are paying $12 to see. But you can change your plans and see it another time so that a group of disabled people can enjoy an outing. It’s not too much to ask of able-bodied cinephiles.

I might choose to put them on at home if an accent is difficult to understand or my dog is making too much noise. But I’d be really put out if captions were turned on in a movie theatre. If a group of deaf movie fans showed up at the time I’d hoped to see a movie, too bad for me. I’ll just have to change my…

Yes, they other people quite a bit.

We have Trump because America has a bunch of racist assholes who are willing to screw themselves over economically just to fuck over people of color? Yeah, that sounds right.
