I’m tired of the narrative that “he had a bright future until it was taken away” about rape and sports. It makes it sound like a horrible thing was done to him when it’s him who has done it to someone else.
This is because most women have eyes, can see things.
I’m not in any way commenting on whether he’s guilty or not (particularly since the university used a preponderance of evidence standard as opposed to a criminal standard), but you know what would be nice? If coaches started holding their own players accountable. The whole team blames the university and the alleged…
I fucking hate college sports so hardcore. And shit like this is why. Who gives a flying fuck if Yale is going into the NCAA tournament? Holy shit you man babies it’s a FUCKING GAME! Why do men think they are less emotional than women? I’ve known men I can’t even approach the next day when their teams lose. Like…
Another plague for Wisconsin besides Scott Walker.
Women can’t practice law....so I’m confused by this comment. What we’re supposed to close down court once a month because she keeps voting “puppies are adorable and chocolate should be president?” Um okay.
Seriously? Daulerio was a train wreck. If there was anybody whose professionalism I’d question... let’s say it wouldn’t be Emma Carmichael’s and leave it at that.
I saw this in a NY Mag online article. The fact that Carmichael was asked this by a member of the jury, by extension saying that she wasn’t qualified for her job, but Daulerio was not asked anything remotely like this, is just gross.

SENSITIVE WEEKS
WAIT SHE PUT IT ALL UP IN THERE
BY JOVE HE HAS SOLVED THE PROBLEM!
we’re dealing just fine. mainly because our heroines have reinforced our knowledge that it’s okay to have our own opinions.
i wait for imperator furiosa’s endorsement before i make any decisions tbh
Concurred in entirety. The request for censorship troubled me, and the one book is such a tiny drop in the bucket I don’t think it would help anyway. But talking with the child about the messaging was a great way to handle it! She can apply that lesson to everything.
I’m with the librarian about Point #2. You can’t expect a library to get rid of all the children’s books with subtle sexist messages. Even if the library just got rid of all the books with OVERT sexist messages, it wouldn’t carry any European fairy tales. (Except Hansel and Gretel. Gretel’s a badass.) I think the…
And as a mixed raced child who had a white mother who took every single racial and sexist battle - and won them, I’ll say: the exhaustion is worth it.
