Griffin forgot:

Louis CK walked into a standing ovation before he even opened his mouth. The message from the audience being we missed you, we are glad you rose above those crazy harpies who tried to bring you down. We protect power at all costs, while the vulnerable are left to wallow. 

You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.

It’s ridiculous that religious marriage is the basis for any legal rights or responsibilities. The state should only sanction civil unions. Period. If people also want to have a religious ceremony that’s their prerogative, but it should be completely separate from anything to do with government.

You make it sound petty. When actually, what they wanted was a way to recognize their union/partnership without all the religious trappings/issues of ‘marriage’. As fewer and fewer people are comfortable with what that all entails, civil unions are a way to gain all the benefits of shared property, etc. without going…

That’s true. But I also thought of it as redefining the civil partnership law so that it’s not the “gay marriage law” but is simply a law for anyone who wants a legal partnership arrangement.

Notice too how all the comments that say this is bullshit have more stars than the ones who agree with the idea. Seem like most people can agree Madonna isn’t hurting being a single mom with her kind of cash and that the single mom father’s day is promoting some toxic idea they don’t care for.

Carlos Leon and Guy Ritchie have, by all accounts, been very involved fathers - often with better relationships with their respective kids than she’s had. So I suppose Madonna’s claiming this unisex parental mantle for the youngest two, to give her the benefit of the doubt that she isnt trying to upstage the fathers…

Even as a single parent(with a team of nannies). Wishing YOURSELF a happy whatever’s day is lame.

I have quite a few badass single moms in my life, but I also have equally as badass single dads. I think they can also have their time in the sun without ceremoniously being shit on.

these posts used to be very popular amongst black women. i’d say from 2009 - 2014 Facebook would be ALL “thanks to my mom for being my dad” etc. glad they’ve been replaced with “mother’s day is for me, let the fathers have their day”

She’s got a lawyer and a manager
An agent and a chef
Three nannies, an assistant
And a driver and a jet
A trainer and a butler
And a bodyguard or five
A gardener and a stylist
Do you think she’s satisfied

on mother’s day, will you have an article about all of the #dadmoms out there too?

I use a mic to record for my work and they pick up EVERYTHING.

I’m a former TV producer and I’ve done four shows for Bravo and just so you know the process, the production company puts the show together and then it goes through anywhere between 3 and 10 rounds of notes with the network. They had multiple opportunities to see those lines and say “they’re too mean, take them out”…

My gay friend is a sign language interpreter, and once had to interpret for a woman who was giving birth. He had never seen a vagina before. I was all ready to defend the vag when he began to tell me about it, thinking he was going to say something about how gross it looked. (I mean—there was all kinds of stuff and a…

It says you could hear her screams and as someone who has given birth you don’t need a mic pack to pick up on the screams of labor if you’re in the same room.

Listen, gay men: You don’t get to be misogynistic assholes while using women’s bodies for something you want. You don’t get a pass.

Holy shit. I cannot imagine. I cannot IMAGINE! Doing something so incredibly difficult and selfless (YES even if you’re being paid out the wazoo this is selfless as fuck) and compassionate...only to hear people making remarks about your goddamn VAGINA while giving birth. Holy shit I hope Jeff and Gage have horrible…

As someone who battles depression, what would make me happiest right now is for you to die a slow painful death.
