I’ll be honest—the women that these men victimized are serving a life sentence of having all the same feelings of shock and disgust come right back up again whenever they see these assholes, so why shouldn’t they have to serve a life sentence of keeping the fuck out of the spotlight? There are some things you do that…

Aretha Franklin was notorious for being a controlling perfectionist.

I would also like to point out that Louis getting back into the business throws an admitted predator into the work place for these comedians. Women will continue to feel unsafe in a business that basically says that a famous man is more important than a safe work environment.

Cities like Boston expose the utter fecklessness of allyship. They are populated with people with the right views, allies who are appropriately outraged at injustices, their public officers strike the right notes. And yet the inequalities are just as racially bordered as the South. A lot of progressives have unearned…

- No.

Prolonged terminal diseases are one of the worst ways to go. But at least he’s got the kind of health care coverage he fought tooth and nail to deny to others. So there’s that.

Ah yes, this full body, ankle length, unitard is less respectful than the itty bitty white tennis skirts that barely cover the players’ vulvas.

She makes them feel so puny and pathetic. She makes them feel so weak and insecure. She walks out on that court, looking like that, dominating the sport like that, and they cannot handle it. The only thing they can do to try and diminish her power and her greatness is some bullshit dress code? SUFFER, FRENCH TENNIS…

Let us also not forget that he inoculated this country against the concept of drumpf via sarah palin.

Look: cancer fucking sucks. My mom is currently undergoing treatment for stage 3 lung cancer, and I am doing everything I can to help support her as she fights back against this shitty disease. That said: I am sick and tired of this bullshit lionizing of John McCain simply because he has cancer. McCain may pay lip…

Later, after the divorce, “Melania wasn’t a very good wife. I saw her once a year, around Christmas. Terrible in bed. Not a 10.” Later, after the disowning, “Don Jr.? Never talked to him. Think I saw him once in New York, across the room at restaurant.” Later, at the check-in center in Hell, “Donald Trump? The guy was…

It’s hard when he’s your kids’ dad.

Everyone is a fucking expert on things they didn’t do in situations they weren’t in, and on how to lecture and browbeat people who are already hurting. Precious few are experts (or even beginners) at accepting that It's Not About Them long enough to help and support the victim. 

It’s common for a lot of women that when they hear about another woman having an encounter like that, they start talking about what she did wrong/they would have done differently/etc. It’s very much a fear-based reaction: it’s based on the assumption that if one does or doesn’t do A, B or C, it can prevent outcome X,…

This is signaled with references to “community organizers.”

So then…why Chicago?

Another loosely related reason for the racist whataboutists throwing around that fake talking point is because they liked to tie it back to Obama. The Chicago rhetoric went wide-spread back when we still had an educated, responsible president. The implication was that Obama was weak on crime since this went on under…

Excellent read. Don’t forget the right likes to pick on Chicago too because it’s synonymous with Barack and Michelle Obama.... anything to continue to denigrate our beloved former President....

White people who adopt black children should be required to go through a training course to never tell their black kids that, “color doesn’t matter”. It may not to them, because they’ll almost never be in a situation where just their color causes people to treat them differently by someone in power. But, trust when I…

I suspect these girls have had microaggressions lobbed at them before this incident but never recognized the micros as being racist.
