First of all there is no golden path for mothers at work. It’s not a rose garden.

I’m just going to repost my comment from the original The Slot post.

They used these cells without her consent and none of the profits went to her family. If they’d get a share of the cell sales they could afford healthcare.

The Mother of healing and healthcare in America. She should be on money and there should be national monuments to her all over the land. That book is great, and sad.

“He stresses that his family members were legal immigrants.”

I hope they rain the 💯’s on him tomorrow on the show. He has truly earned them. Bonus points for making white CNN correspondents explode with his use of the n-word.

I mean it was more a slam on Brian Williams, but damn did he come for everyone. I liked him before but Larry Wilmore seriously has my respect now.

People are fucking weird. This was HILARIOUS. And all the more so by how many complete cringe worthy moments there were, of all these media people being entirely unable to laugh at them selves. Did you guys see Blitzer’s face?? If eyes could kill, Larry would be dead. Dead, I tell ya.

In this context, I think Schumer being female and the aggressor being male are essential components of him treating her as a commodity. Male celebs are also subjected to invasive and unwanted attention, but this “I/we paid for you [so I can do anything I want to you even if you say ‘no’]” sounds like a john thinking…

OP said camera lenses can be male-gazey. This is a perfect application of OP’s statement. If going into someone’s face to shoot them against their will isn’t male-gazey-rapeish, I don’t know what is.

Who says it? Guy for whom women are things.

He said “we paid for you” and also didn’t respond to her “stop” and “no.” Maybe it sounds very radical fem but camera lens can be male gazey and with the non consent here this feels kind of rapey (no, that doesn’t undermine actual rape...this is a different degree but in my understanding there is a spectrum of…

I think the only part I’m able to confidently comment on is this. No one is ever the perfect victim. But holy shit does the inverted pyramid/funnel drain fast when someone is POCand/orLGBT. It’s a quick drawing funnel and most of the world would appreciate if those stories or those accounts or those victims would just…

I wonder if this mostly has to do with teens being able to access information about sexual health without being reliant on abstinence only school programs, parents, or scrambled playboy channel.

Off-topic, but I’m pretty sure that knife was literally stolen from a Power Ranger.

I know what you’re saying is absolutely right. I just think that as we grow to be more diverse (and, as Trump manages to de-code all the racial coding that was established by Republicans in the latter half of last century), we are seeing the death throes of the southern strategy. Republicans have been saying to…

Keep doing it. Keeeeeeeeeep aligning yourself with racists, Trump. Our country is diverse and many of those non-white voters are terrified of you. Dig your own grave, buddy. (eta: I realize this is about his supporters, not him, but like, come on)

My daughter saw that story and was like “So wait ... a bunch of MALE COPS went into the women’s restroom to kick her out?”

I think I might have even more strongly negative feelings toward him than I do Trump. Cruz is actually *intelligent* as well as an evil sentient humanoid blobfish who actively campaigns to throw minority groups and women under the bus.
