One really sick part about this whole thing is that this is how A LOT of white people talk when no one else is around. The Trump era has made people think this is OK to not only say while at home, but on national television. People need to be publicly shamed for saying shit like this.

Speaking of making Trump mad, early voting starts today in GA-6. If you’re in East Cobb and Sandy Springs, go vote for Jon Ossoff! I can’t because I’m a mile outside the district, but my high school is — and last week I registered several of my seniors. Also, this tweet delighted me today:

I think the fact that he still has the support of %36 of the entire population, and not just the support of 36 people, speaks volumes about the state of our education system.

Remember that scene in Antichrist where Willem Dafoe happens upon the fox that’s eating its own guts, and then the fox says “chaos reigns” in a demon voice?

This is why so many people voted for — and continue to support — Trump even as he promised to gut the programs they depend on for survival. They honestly believe there’s a fundamental difference between the “good” programs for (white) people in “legitimate need” that keep them afloat and the programs that exist to…

It disproportionately affects low-wage hourly workers. Which just so happen to be women more so than men. And usually women with kids. So it fucks over a lot of single mothers.

“We don’t know how much of a factor race plays in the sudden reversal of public opinion...”

They also want the government to keep their hands off medicare and VA benefits so....

Yes yes yes. These dumbasses thought Obamacare was something different from the ACA and now that they have learned it’s the same fucking thing, suddenly it’s “don’t take away my healthcare!” They were fine taking it away from the mythical lazy negroes and Mexicans, though, of course.

No, a book cannot cause someone to become gay. It might, however, help someone to internally acknowledge that they are gay, and thus have more self-acceptance, more self-esteem, and a greater sense of security.

Charles and Diana’s pairing came about for much the same reason people have disaster sex - the need for human closeness and comfort during a tough time.

They should have asked him for his SAG card in return.

The hell? What if they weren’t? I’m Canadian and have vacationed in Cali several times, and have *gasp* eaten in restaurants. As a non-local citizen.

God I can’t wait to get out of Kansas.

What exactly does it say about me that I did in fact click on this story, knowing I would have to look at multiple horrible close-ups that made me gag, and am still commenting on it?

Displaying a Confederate flag on your desk should be instantly disqualifying, especially when you represent a state that fought for the Union. Iowa, y’all deserve better than this.

Our state’s attorney, Deirdre Daly, resigned on Friday. She has done an incredible job in Connecticut, working particularly hard to end human trafficking (particularly sex trafficking of children) and to address the opioid crisis, both here in Connecticut and throughout New England. Thankfully, her replacement served…

Does anybody have good, healthy, positive associations with growing up in a religious family? I feel a solidarity with other people who grew up Catholic, but for the most part we are talking shit about how messed up it was. I'm not saying that every Catholic is terrible, it really needs to be something you choose as…

I was raised in an atheist household (I'm 25 now), and I'm always surprised at how uncommon it is. I know lots of atheists, but all of them came to their atheism as teenagers or adults. I don't know anyone else with atheist parents.
