I need to tell Jezebel how this site and the people within have been the primary thing (besides my friends and family) keeping me from descending into a deep depression and despair. I am so worried for loved ones and strangers alike who are POC, Muslims, and members of the LGBTQ community. I have an androgynous…

I do still get upset if I think too much about said abortion/potential child, but I have no regrets at all.

This show is cringe-inducingly great, and this episode was fantastic. I had an abortion a year ago, and it was precisely because the son I have (and two ex-step-children who are still my perfect little monkeys) and the life towards which I am striving would be destroyed if I had brought another child into this world.…

As a writer and journalist myself, Ifill has always been a major role model and inspiration. Between the election, Leonard Cohen, and now this, I need to stay away from alcohol or I may never stop.

Bernie and Michelle, 2020. However, as I wrote in a different comment, the left needs to actually vote in the midterm elections. We never turn out except every 4 years, and it is absolutely imperative that we need to put our words into actions. If we gain at least a Senate majority, we can prevent the SCOTUS from…

Democrats and liberals need to start organizing NOW for the 2018 midterm elections. One supreme court appointment we can survive; more than that we will be fucked for a generation or more. The left never votes in the interim; we have to get our shit together because lives and liberties are literally on the line. If…

Coming soon to Trump’s America.

Just in case it was not obvious, I meant I was the one who needs those things, not you.

I hope the recommendation was not a mistake. Allies always need engagement, to learn more, and to listen, so thank you for that.

*Has never stopped me

It is absolutely horrible that you have had to deal with that your entire life. That is not how life should be, for anyone. Attacking me for caring and drawing conclusions about me, however, makes nothing better whatsoever. You have every right and reason to be angry that you have to deal with that shit, but your…

Seriously?!? What on earth did I say that ws like saying that horrific phrase? Of course black and other POC have a harder time than me; I grew up in poor inner cities. The guy I am seeing is black, and even in my liberal state the remarks and looks we receive are disgusting. That is heartbreaking, and I am involved…

Obviously your experiences are different than mine in some way, but in this situation YOU made assumptions based on race, not me. Have a nice day.

And I sure as hell didn’t vote for Trump. Not that it is any of your business, but I canvassed for several Democratic candidates. That includes Clinton, but continue drawing false conclusions based upon my race.

Take your anger or whatever it is on someone else. I certainly do not need to explain myself or describe the life I’ve lived, the actions I’ve done, or the causes I have been and in which I am involved.

I have no idea why you’re assuming anything about me, but you’re completely wrong in your assumptions.

You have absolutely no idea when I started “feeling” or doing anything, but good job fighting with the people who care and do shit.

You’re amazing!

Sorry for your losses. The only other times I’ve cried this many days in a row were the deaths of my dad, Grandma, close cousin, and favorite two dogs.

I’m through most of the stages of grief. Drank too much election night after convincing myself Clinton would still win, cried on and off for days, got pissed at Comey and 3rd party voters, and now ready to fight. Acceptance is not fucking happening.
