Except that one of those things is not even remotely comparable to the other. Either you’re ok with people dying to gun violence on a daily basis just as long as your right to own a gun isn’t taken away, or you’re not. And if you’re not, then it doesn’t fucking matter what a gun is called because that isn’t the point…

And now you’re moving the goalposts. We aren’t discussing transgender (not ‘transsexual’) bathrooms, we're discussing the ridiculous pendantry spewing out of your mouth about what is or is not an assault rifle. People are dead. Lots and lots of people. And no one in power is willing to do anything to stop it from…

Not to mention that even if some criminals do get them from time to time, it’s still going to be FAR LESS OFTEN than it is now with that shit being 100% legal. But the insane mindset people have is that if we can’t stop bad people from getting guns 100% of the time, then why try to stop them at all.

False equivalency. Using the word ‘transvestite’ is wrong because it’s an offensive and derogatory term referring to a human being. ‘Assault rifle’ is only offensive to gun nerds who want to discredit anything the gol durn libruls say because they used the wrong word for a high powered killing machine.

Except Samantha Bee isn't drafting a bill, she's talking about gun control on a TV show. And gun nerds who go around hypercorrecting people's language are doung it to be dicks, not to ensure accuracy in legislative documents.

Yes, because pedantry will bring the hundreds who have died as the result of gun violence back from the dead. It doesn’t really matter what the thing is called, and splitting hairs about terminology does nothing except draw attention away from the actual issue, which is scores upon scores of innocent people being…

I really, really doubt that you go through the world seeing every person you encounter as a genderless entity. Because you live in a society, and regardless of what society that is, I guarantee that it has wide reaching patterns of how men present themselves and how women present themselves. Again, that does not mean…

Exactly. It's also totally disingenuous, and it attempts to gloss over people's lived experiences as a person who is treated differently based on their appearance, whether it has to do with race or gender or whatever.

‘Male’ and ‘masculine’ don’t mean the same thing.

I feel like you’re being deliberately obtuse on this issue. There are societal/cultural expectations for what is ‘typically masculine’ and ‘typically feminine’. Does that mean that every man and every woman fall neatly into those categories? Of course not. But the norms and expectations are there, whether we like or…

Holy shit you’re right, why did none of us Americans think of gun control?! Good thing you’re here to give us all the answers.

It's definitely got a Theon Greyjoy/Ramsey Bolton vibe to it.

I am a fellow greaseball. I use Clinique Super City Block as a primer, then Benefit Big Easy bb cream (which has built-in oil control), then whatever other products I’m going to put on (e.g. eyeliner, mascara, cheek stain, lip color), and then I finish with Urban Decay De-Slick setting spray which is amazing. I still…

You guys. I recently got the new Always On liquid lipstick from Smashbox and it. is. amazing. Highly pigmented, non-drying, stays on for hours upon hours even through eating and drinking. I don't know if any of you have tried it yet, but I have been singing its praises to anyone who will listen.

I LOVE THESE NAILS SO MUCH.

Your look great! And a little bit like Parker Posey, who is adorable. I like this makeup look a lot.

When I was an undergrad, I don’t know how many fucking times I heard “So, are you working on your MRS degree?”, mostly from people my parents’ age. So irritating and insulting.

Pleeeease tell me you have a second kitty named Hall…

Adele also has a traditionally black sound, but I don't see anyone complaining about that.

I’m pretty sure that in CA, rape is defined as nonconsensual penetration with a foreign object, which would include fingers. But I could be thinking of a different penal code.
