BDS isn’t about Bibi (who is objectively awful, has been for a long time, and is only getting worse). But BDS is not about political change in Israel, it is quite directly about getting rid of Israel.

But BDS targets liberal voices in Israel, too (just under half the population, but getting smaller unfortunately). A boycott of any Israeli products produced in the occupied territories would seem more just. And yes, the quicker Bibi is gone the better (hoping his latest scandal over the weekend will help.)

Seems rather insincere to do the show, get paid $$$, get the publicity, and THEN call VS out. Also, the comments about VS’s lack of inclusiveness did not start rolling in just in the last couple of weeks. 

It’s not really a question of why women would aspire to having it all, so much as what women need to do to escape the harsh societal judgement of having only a *part* of “it”. The whole song and dance of whore v. virgin, job v. stay-at-home, kids v. no kids, blah blah blah blah blah. The only way women can “win” is

Thank you! This is why I will always stan for Missy Elliot. Innovator. 

Jameela is absolutely right and I’m glad someone with a platform is calling this shit out.

Dude, if my partner ever complained about my choice of underwear, I would take all of his, hide them, and replace them with 7 pairs of g-string banana hammocks and tell him to have fun wearing them for the week. He can at me again afterwards about g-strings if he so desires.

Republicans have no bottom? That’s news to Lindsay Graham! 

You guys need to take this conversation over to Jalopnik:

Nothing says Republican family values like a man and the woman he left his wife and 5 children for.

Because he operates like a gangster, and he has undoubtedly promised them the Earth. And he will screw them over, same as he has done to everyone, his whole life. I can’t wait till he fucks over Roger Stone, because Stone will flat out kill him.

I can see his point but, like, who cares? Fergie would probably prefer he not bring any more attention to it and macho posturing for an ex-spouse on national tv is a little bit thirsty, you know?

Sadly, that’s just fully drawn from experience in an abusive relationship.  Hearing it come from the White House each day is...genuinely difficult.

You would think someone 5'6 would seem plenty taller than me at 5'2, but they don’t. I always feel like i can see over their heads, like i’m the taller than them. And they are usually pretty thin if they are that short. I’m not a stick figure, so i feel huge. 

Fifty years from now, on my deathbed, as my loved ones gather to sob their farewells, if I hear the magical words FYRE FEST I will bolt upright, completely recovered, and demand the nearest electronic device to read every word.

Kavanaugh should not be held accountable for Kellyanne Conway having been abused by another man.

even for me its pretty damn obvious that Kavanaugh believes himself to be above all else — above the law, above Senators, above past victims, and above judgement & reproach.  Don’t think I’m the only one to pick up that vibe, right?

If the apology had come immediately after the disrespectful challenge of the Senator’s question, I might have cut Brett some slack and given him minor credit for a display of self-awareness.

He’s a liar and a fucking entitled drunk liar on top of that. We should start demanding his impeachment from the minute he gets confirmed and we should never stop yelling “Liar” every single chance we get.

I cringed so hard watching that exchange yesterday. And while he SHOULD apologize, his apology came after a 15 minute break where someone probably coached him, and made him out to be an upstanding guy. It glosses over the original exchange where he was totally out of line and frankly, extremely immature. He was trying
