Do you ever hear that argument for any other convictions? If you’re convicted of armed robbery, you didn’t *ruin your life* you just proved you were always an armed robber, right?

Of course surgeon! Dude surgeons, dude chefs, dude cops, dude pilots... always ego issues. (Ego issues for some lady ones of those, too, but that’s not what I’m here to talk about rn)

If I think about all the white male student-athletes I went to high school with I don’t think I’d describe all that many of them as having particularly promising futures in the first place.

True! I go back and forth between “man Trump is such a failure at his business ventures that of course he won’t succeed in carrying out any fascist plots but oh wait, does thst just mean he’ll cause the whole country to implode ?"

Yes! Like that! Like her marriage was a strategic career move for my prof, so she could be the White Lady Black People Expert and just feel a million superior to everybody.

It’s really sad that you were getting *so* willfully misunderstood throughout that convo! Happy to be a friendly voice :)

How about the Siri on your phone contacts the Siri on your rapists phone, who sends his location to law enforcement, auto texts all his contacts that he’s a rapist, and chews him out until the cops get there

Well to be honest it’s kind of like people saying “I love my pet.” Sure. Yes. You do. You like things about it. But do you respect it as an equal? As an individual? As someone who has every right to do and say what they please even if it doesn’t fit your script?

Right! I think that’s hard for all of us to discover this election cycle. You mean not all Trump supporters are KKK members? Not all Hillary supporters are *feminazis*? Not all Bernie supporters are 20something stoner bros? Not all Cruz supporters are...

You’re right about that. With the headaches of taking a not-insifnificant financial hit, getting time off for appointments, maintaining privacy if you want it, it’s still a big deal.

“Well of COURSE she got raped, what did she expect not riding on the women-only traincar like a slut?!”

Good point, other dudes aren’t humans either... They’re either...dollar signs or worthless hobos?? Hmm

I actually kind of wish more people thought of it that way. Nothing wrong with devaluing a thing that has no value to you.

I love you forever Cheetos (esp the shiveled hard kind!!!!) BUT Chester def looks like the type that thinks he’s allowed to rape you because he called you pretty

Like I can’t get over this. Sure, you don’t want to vote for a Democrat. You hate big government and love your church. Okay.

:( I had one of those for a education professor. Constantly othering and disparaging the black kids she taught in her day job-in the process of supposedly teaching us how to be good teachers. Right.

That’s what keeps me thinking that Cruz is more dangerous

You could vote it in for two terms, even, it has enough preservatives that it will easily last that long

He would try to do the trick where you pull the tablecloth out but the dishes stay on... and knock everything on the floor. That’s what that means.

I saw a debate in a friend’s thread (friend was lamenting that there are ZERO candidates that she is willing to support) that had one person declaring “Trump is what we need right now!” and another saying “oh I agree, they’re all crazy- especially on the Dem side!”
