of course, apologists and PR firms to the rescue of a white boy. god forbid his future be ruined. F-ck that. The look on his face says it all. As a woman, I’ve seen that from a man in other contexts, but the sentiment: disrespect, devaluing, smug entitlement, does not change. I won’t let their attempts to save this…

What you see here hinges on whether you believe that “Make America Great Again” is a dog whistle meant to unite racists, misogynists, and homophobes under one umbrella, or you’re delusional and don’t care about people who aren’t white men.

There *must* be a German word for being amazingly and awesomely petty from beyond the grave, when no one can stop you.

“The family of Frances Irene Finley Williams thinks you should know she thought Trump was ‘crass, vulgar, racist, sexist, dishonest, corrupt and unintelligent.’”

Tulsi Gabbard is at the bottom of the list of declared candidates for me so far.

I cried watching it. The End.

The part that seems extra bonkers to me is that, by including Terry Crewe’s testimony, Gillette was even explicitly acknowledging male victims, which is something MRAs frequently scream about.

The responses are fucking insane. I can’t see how anyone finds it offensive to suggest it’s better that a grown man intervene when a school kid is being beat up by a gang of kids?

And Best Chris aka Chris Evans who IS Captain America calls Trump out regularly. (hence his designation as Best Chris) 

Not to be pedantic or too much of a nerd, but Captain America is portrayed as believing and a symbol of what America should be and not what it is. He’d be sickened to have Trump be POTUS 

He’s not funny or interesting. 

My first job in NYC paid around $27K (while also having pretty hefty student loans), and I survived. There’s “affordable” housing everywhere if you’re willing to sacrifice a lot / have a lengthy commute / roommates. I think the point is, why are we all ok with this? Because I had to struggle to work in a low paying…

“What part of your dignity would be sacrificed by that?”

Newsflash- if Alexandria does this on a weekly basis it could be a model for other legislators to relate to their constituents which is something that is sorely lacking in today’s political world. I find it really relatable. Take a seat.

Charro beans:. 1 lb dried pintos, 1 chopped onion, 4 slices chopped bacon or pork belly, 2 avocado leaves or espazote, kosher salt, 2 qt water, can of diced tomatoes with jalapenos drained.

Don’t be, they have a bunch of safety features and are way safer than traditional pressure cookers.

I’ve been reading through all these stories the last two weeks. Some incredible ones. I know Halloween has come and gone now but I still had the urge to actually put fingers to keyboard and share some stories about some scary / ghostly (?) things that have happened to me over the years. Forgive me for the following…

I was 12 and the plastic pumpkin I used that Halloween started to freak me out. I didn’t even dare to take the candy out of it.

Time passed. My grades went down in a couple of weeks. By Thanksgiving I went from straight A’s to C’s. My room felt dark. The mood on the house was sober. It was like a feeling of despair…

Otherwise evolved individuals are sometimes temporarily brainwashed by that distinctly American phenomenon, "sucks to be you" (and its complement, "must be nice"). It's particularly heinous among the socially aware, because those with the same beliefs but more financially privileged expect equal sacrifice among…
