Eh, not really? My point is that she’s clouding the issue. She’s taking lifelong frustration out on an undeserving target when there’s a bigger issue at stake. This kind of division pops up in every rights movement, whether it’s feminism, race, gay rights...on and on and on.

I was talking about her comments, not the comments of those who were (rightly) calling her out.

Maybe we should all stop attacking each other and start focusing on actual problems/enemies??? This is just so stupid and seems like a lot of misplaced frustration and anger.

I wish I knew more about the law, but what rights does Rojas have in this case to press charges after the fact? Especially given that there is video evidence?

CNN IS THE WORST CNN IS THE WORST

Oh dear. That just made me really sad.

Umm we’re surprised that a dad who let their 12 year old (or 15 year old? or 5 year old? who knows) become a superstar kind of has a weird and inappropriate relationship with their kid???!

Ahh I hate when I’m busy at work and I miss things like this (also I hate being in the greys). I developed a serious skincare addiction this year and I looove this stuff.

MD wasn’t a totally willing participant in the Union....saying that with all my love for MD, particularly Montgomery County.

I spent a summer in upstate New York and people were flying the confederate flag alllll over the town I was living in. It was baffling until I realized that it really has nothing to do with Southern pride. It’s just a symbol of ignorance and hate. That’s all.

Thanks for this! I also appreciate broader context. If you don’t mind saying, are you from Alabama or do you just have a good grasp on state politics??

True! Acceptable add-on compliment. I just thought it was important to focus on the “Congrats!” more than assuring them that they look glowing and beautiful. Because seriously, who cares? You’re creating a life! That’s so cool! (It still is nice to tell someone that they look awesome, though)

“Congrats, I wish you well!” — is the only appropriate response from anyone who is not Chrissy Teigen, John Legend, or her doctor.

Bradley Cooper is awesome and is the perfect example of what an ally should do.

I also get a shock about once a day when I read an article that I thought was on Jezebel and then it turns out it was shared from Gawker. I usually can tell within about 2 comments.

Haha I like the argument that progressives are the racist ones, because we just keep bringing up race. Everyone just needs to GET OVER IT. Ignoring things just makes them go away! Science.

That actually explains a lot. The NYTimes I could understand more (but not much), but I was like, the ACLU site? Who is sitting around trolling that? Do those even people know what the ACLU is?!

The whole debate thing was meh EXCEPT for Larry David playing himself doing a mild Bernie impression. Gold.

Andddd now we’re seeing the fallout for gutting the Voting Rights Act.

I’ve thought that one of the most dangerous (ok...one of many “most dangerous” as the Repubs are going full-throttle, worlds-destroying psychotic this season) ideas is to abolish the Dept of Education. It won’t happen. However, the idea that every parent should be able to audit their child’s education whenever they…
