I swear every morning since the election I’ve woken up and had the horrible realization that Trump is going to be president over and over. It’s like the movie Groundhog Day without the comedy.

The biggest check on executive power is not congress or the Supreme Court- it is bureaucratic resistance. Trump is trying to eliminate that barrier-

Please do tell how countries like Canada or England manage to stay afloat with “entitlement programs” such as universal healthcare, and why it is such a difficult thing for the US, where kids can get killed just for being at school, to do so. How is it not a huge burden in other countries but somehow unacceptable for…

I don’t think Ivanka requires help nor deserves it. She’s done and said some shitty stuff in the media. She’s now definitively a public figure and one that a lot of people feel anger at. So yeah, this is going to happen and should happen. Honestly if anyone else had said the shit Ivanka has about the poor, immigrants,…

Being an asshat to facists is not being an asshat.

It’s so strange to me. Are power and money that fucking important? Don’t they know how history is going to remember them?

Seriously, him saying he would destroy the records before giving them to a deportation task force made me reel. we need more people talking like this.

I’m ready for Dems in congress to just go full Tea Party. No attempts at governing, just obstruct whatever the opposing party is trying to do and hope you get rewarded come midterms because they’re in charge now and then everything can be blamed on the GOP. Why not?

It’s not close! She’s losing EVERYWHERE, even next door to me in New Hampshire! I am freaking the fuck out!!! She’s losing MInnesota! MSNBC showed the national vote count and she’s down 51%-44% and my heart skipped a beat...WTF?? I thought all these white people were dead...where did they come from?

It makes you wonder why they don’t have a disabled/doctor’s note/70+ y/o line for those folks who physically can’t wait around in line for hours and hours...

It is so easy for people in power to discriminate/harass individuals, and then eliminate the threats of lawsuits individually. But I rarely hear of people banding together to complain or sue. I know of one class action lawsuit against a big employer and it has about 5 women in it. Even as a group we feel too…

I was often called “strident” as a girl and young lady. It was never meant as a positive.

That is such a cool nugget! I recently learned about the etymology of desire and consider: They both come from the Latin root sidus, wich means “heavenly body.”

That line bothered me too. It’s so...defeatist.

They do. You are forgetting that many of the big decision makers in workplaces were junior men during the Mad Men era. The times have changed but the men haven’t.

I don’t mind that line.

What the hell is a strongly worded finger?

You could do this...

You’re braver than I am. I live in rural NY in an old farmhouse split in two and the other side of the house has decorated the lawn with Trump signs that I do my best to ignore. The whole street is lined with the damn things and I’m obviously a minority. I’m just keeping my head down and trying to fly under the radar…
