I mean, it’s possible to say “Should sports still be separated by gender?” without being a transphobic piece of shit, but don’t expect Republicans to figure that out. 

I’m done.

I spent the last twenty years marching, donating, fighting. I was told repeatedly that everything I was doing was wrong, and I, a white lady, needed to listen to black people. So I did, constantly, and at the expense of my own values and mental health. In a few cases, I risked my life to protect and speak up…

This is why I don’t even call myself an activist anymore. Instead of standing together, united, a bunch of jerks turned everything into a clique of who could get the most re-tweets and social media attention. Cue the call outs about everything from “going to Chinatown is cultural appropriation. My culture is not your…

I’ve helped write a merch-related cookbook and have several friends in merch-related publishing. The point of a cookbook like this is to recreate dishes from the show, no matter how good or gross they sound to you personally. It would be more inauthentic to randomly add Afro-French dishes because of Michel, when…

Let’s see. In the middle of a global pandemic and lockdown the likes of which most of us have never experienced, some celebs tried to do something positive and loving.

Just because someone doesn’t do something the way you would, or with the same approaches, doesn’t make it wrong. This kind of academic gatekeeping is not helpful, nor even academic in the first place.

This story would be portrayed quite differently if Dorland was not white. If she were a WOC, others would be bending over backwards to defend her from appropriation and theft of her voice, her story, her experiences, exploited for profit by someone else without her permission. Every one of us knows it.

This baffles me, too. The number of times I’ve heard people call their spouses “moron” or “bitch” is beyond belief. One of the times I was proudest of my mother (who had dubious marital choices herself) was at a neighborhood BBQ when I was in high school. One of the women regularly talked about what an idiot her…

Instead of just smug judgment?! How will their good wittle Cwistian hearts handle it?!?

I sincerely appreciate your validation on this. It’s one of those things that feels like shouting into a void. I also know people who met/hung out with Tammy, and said she was nice and sweet. I’m sure she did grow as a person. But she never did anything to make up for profiting for decades off the sick and poor. She…

I refuse to rewrite Tammy Faye as heroic. Empathy for LGBTQ+/people living with HIV is the barest minimum she as a Christian could have shown. What the fuck does she deserve, a cookie? Her dogs lived better than the average gay person in the 1980s.

I was a good, churchgoing little Christian girl until Jim and Tammy…

Silly! It’s not a legitimate rape if it’s your stepdaughter/cousin/niece/neighbor/etc. Just ask any good Gawd-fearin’ Evangelical! 

Wait, you mean trying to make complicated issues like sexual and domestic abuse into a very simple little slogan + social media didn’t work, and ended up hurting victims more? Shocking, I tell you.
