Is is still an engagement ring if it’s not used to propose marriage? Like, don’t the circumstances of it being given to you actually define what kind of ring it is?

Hot take: most of VB’s rings are gauuuddddyyy. Don’t @ me*.

“they weren’t gonna do shit to the guy until they realized how much attention they were getting”

this is why cellphone videos to the cloud *matter*.

A LOT.

This is because Marco Rubio is a fuckless cunt.

Asia’s evil plan.

There’s a 100% chance Ivanka never read the report and only put her name on it.

This cunt. That’s all I’ve got to say. 

As much as I love Downton Abbey, I do think it presents an overly rosy view of the British upper class—the “upstairs” family was always so well-intentioned and blah blah blah. I think it shows a lot about his biases that even The Crown’s mainly positive and sympathetic depiction of the royal family wasn’t positive…

That’s what really gets me. Most of them don’t really care about abortion being “baby killing.” If they truly did, they’d support universal free birth control. A pilot program in Colorado that offered free IUDs led to a HUGE decrease in the abortion rate. Everybody wins - and it’s more economical in the long run.

Hoodies are a suspicious item of clothing; apparently, this, not so much.

Wow, gun violence AND an assault on a free press all in one? It’s like the conservative dream. 

I think the correct response is with thoughts and prayers

we protest in front of their churches and homes with pictures of women who have died from unsafe abortion procedures, and pictures of all those precious itty bitty fetuses who were born just to be abused and/or killed. We canvas every street with stats on how the abortion rates have gone UP - because they WILL - due…

And you know what? This isn’t only about abortion, because their next step will be to do away with all babykiller pills, OKA, birth control. Need it for a actual health issue, tough luck slut, you should have had better genes.

Tell me how these events are not leading to the Handmaid’s Tale dystopia?

To be clear, it will be coat hangers in back alleys, regardless of how robust our resistance work is. You just can’t get to enough people in a timely way when you have to do it all underground.

It’ll take some time for the challenge to rise all the way up to the Court, but it will almost certainly happen at some point in the next 18 months. The question is just how bad the damage is - whether we “only” get a strike-down that returns the issue to the states, or they go for a broader “abortion is…

This week the Supreme Court decided that it’s unconstitutional to force fake doctors to tell women the truth, but totally constitutional to force real doctors to lie to them. That’s the court we have right now. And it’s about to become so much worse.

PSA: as this article points out, it’s important to use clear language when describing neo-Nazi fuckery. Neo-Nazis went to Charlottesville to start a riot. They are going to try to start a riot in Lafayette Park. They always do this shit, and then lie about it. Why? Two reasons: 1) by starting a riot, they can…
