“I don’t even know why this is a thing.” It’s a thing for the very same reason they try to brainwash women into believing identifying as a feminist makes her automatically threatening, less appealing, a harridan and emasculator: scare people into not being allies, to stymie progress.

“Why do so many people think it’s okay for women to wear pants[?]” In the ‘30s, it *was* looked down on when a woman wore pants. It took women deciding to ignore the taunts and insults that finally made it acceptable for them to wear them. Maybe men should stand up to the same reactions if they’d like to wear skirts,…

“I know guys who have pretty left-leaning beliefs, but vote Republican because “the left are a bunch of pussies.” MY goodness! Isn’t it better to be weak-minded and easily manipulated than it is to have conviction and vote your beliefs?

This is truly ridiculous. If that’s what’s going to keep men from publicly supporting women, then I don’t what to tell them about their masculinity. Then again, this is coming from a women who loathes when other women flinch from identifying as a feminist (while very obviously living the definition of it) lest they…

“You know who also had a peculiar persecution complex while possessing absolute power? Hitler.” And even other despot, tyrant, overlord in human history.

Yup, because when you’re trying to bring the country back to when only property owners could vote, it’s in your best interest to make it impossible to own property, outside of a select few.

Yesterday I bought a bottle of rye, which I’ll be drinking on the 20th.

“Like, I “knew” this was happening, but the combination of Obama’s farewell address last night and then this today made the imminent, real reality of it come crashing down on me.”

“Every day now is like an eternity. He’s so revolting the way he openly disparages all of our most fundamental tenets of democracy including equality, free speech, freedom of the press, our intelligence community, science, public education, social net. He’s just mean-spirited and villainous. He can no longer hide his…

“Yeah. More fool us. I thought they’d be interested in governing an actual country, not a smoking ruin of a dumpster fire. But here we all go.” Because the part of the world they would be inhabiting will not be the dumpster fire part. Most of them have never inhabited anything but luxury, to varying degrees. Because…

“That’s the Twilight Zone for me. Trump’s a piece of work, but all these other supporters and yes-people and bobblehead-nodders are just as frightening.” It’s more frightening, to my mind. Without all of those enablers, this could not have happened. He’d just be a piece of work, but they’ve enabled him to become the…

“Stress like that can kill a man. It would be a real shame if unrelenting negative attention caused a heart attack or a stroke.” I’ve been sitting here crying for the last hour, but this made me laugh. I can’t thank you enough.

“Do you ever listen to him speak and think, “Well I must be dead and/or in the Twilight Zone because there is no way in hell this can be real.” The thing is, I *have* been forced to live in a Twilight Zone-Hunger Games mash up for years now, and I still cannot believe my fucking eyes and ears when it comes to what’s…

“During the Wednesday press conference, Vice-president elect Mike Pence called the release of the dossier, purportedly written by a former MI6 agent, an attempt “to demean the president-elect.” Fuck off, Pence. Trump does a better job of demeaning himself than any other person possibly could.

There’s a lot to respect and love about her, but this is my favorite: she lived “just around the corner from the Foreign Correspondents’ Club.” She might’ve taken herself out of the action, but she wanted to remain close to it. I love her.

That’s exactly what immediately came to mind for me, too.

“My great grandfather died fighting the Nazis and if I have to do the same then so be it. I’m ready.”

“He dismissed this comment, so I’ll just leave it here:” Since he dismissed your comment, which was meant to clarify what he has repeatedly said he doesn’t understand and is only trying to gain understanding, then I guess it’s safe to say he’s trolling.

“How are going to keep it legal and push back against the crazies on the right if saying “Sticking a coat hanger inside yourself will never make sense to me” is enough to drive our side to madness?” This is seriously faulty reasoning, at best. It doesn’t have to make sense to those opposed to it. They need to be made…

“He thinks you can just fall on your belly and that it will work. Because he doesn’t know how lady parts or pregnancy works.” But, he pointed out, he’s an engineer. And also something something else, too, so if he doesn’t understand, well, than, she’s obviously at fault, somehow. Drug addict or crazy. The fault is not…
