Good news is:

I am constantly saying this. He is the Gaslighter-in-Chief.

Jesus tap dancing Christ, what is wrong with people that they can even remotely believe or approve of ANYTHING 45 or his henchmen are doing. What the fuck is wrong with people. If both houses of Congress don’t flip in 2018 after all of this shit, I just give up on this country. So far beyond done.

Trump is basically trying to gaslight the entire country.

Sean Spicer, March 6:

Yes, the ability to take off work and protest is a privilege.

I’m mostly talking about how men were explicitly told to go to work. It undermined the whole approach to having a strike. It said, “We’re going on strike, but we’re going to make sure this is a small inconvenience instead of a powerful statement.”

But I’d argue that infighting is the inevitable, predictable result of predicating your movement upon concepts like oppression and privilege. When you turn oppression into a currency, you incentive people to collect as many as possible and that creates divisions (since oppression inherently comes from others). Don’t

This is INFURIATING. I had verbal “back pats” and “thatagirls” from ignorant trolls (DISMISSED ASSHATS) when I commented that there was no way I could NOT work (and not get paid or support the women I work with and for) because I couldn’t afford it - literally. And neither could the small business owner for whom I

I love this and completely agree. We have too often let perfect be the enemy of the good. Has there or can there ever be a movement that is perfect? No, it is not possible. We need to focus on the good that we can do, while incorporating lessons learned going forward. If we get distracted tearing one another down,

What the author of that email and so many others have curiously forgotten—or, more likely, never knew in the first place—is that often, resistance movements require that type of discomfort and sacrifice.

This kind of bullshit in-fighting is precisely why the conservatives — who, despite all their faults, are ace at holding their noses in the interest of presenting a solid front to their opponents and attaining their goals— manage to get so much fuckery done while the liberals argue about everything under the sun.

You don’t even need expensive equipment! Just like...be in a room with consistent, bright lighting...

I’m having a hard time figuring out the point of doing a beauty blog like this without a decent camera and good and consistent lighting. The difference between makeup products is often really subtle, so a bunch of grainy, low-light, webcam-looking videos of those products is really pretty fucking useless for

I still think it’s bullshit that churches get any kind of special tax exemptions. If they want to avoid paying taxes, they should have to be actual nonprofits and prove their nonprofit status on a regular basis.

OMG, why do all schools have an environment where you can never clear the air with colleagues who are pains in the ass? I am a teacher and there’s someone I don’t even acknowledge because he’s such a mysogynistic ass. He tells everyone he knows I don’t like him. It’s like he’s trying to shame me into being nice to him

I’m the only female mortician at the funeral home where I work. I work with a gaggle of Neanderthal men with the combined IQ of six, all misogynistic, racist, anti-Semitic, homophobic (and shockingly Trump-supporting!) Philistines. I am calling in sick tomorrow and the place will no doubt burst into flames without the

I’m a high school English teacher, and I plan to punch one of my colleagues in his throat when he makes his first condescending or misogynistic (or both) comment.

I’m a counselor at an abortion clinic in Houston. I’ll be at work helping women access abortion care while they still are able to exercise that right!

My Republican Boss (that should be a children’s book) watched it over the weekend and thinks it only one because its poor, gay, black story was liberal catnip. Then he went on to say how much he loved the look of it, the acting and the story. Then he complained because the Oscars never nominate his movies like 13
