I want to throttle my sisters most days too. Or develop one of those withering stares that turns them into a pile of silent ash. Emphasis on silent. Eugh.

Yeah. If I reach 100 and am still compos mentis, I can guarantee my feelings about my sister will be as sharp and conflicted and pained as they are today.

Yes, I have two sisters and the relationships are complicated. They can be great supporters but also the cruelest adversaries. I don’t have brothers, so i don’t know if they are similar in that regard.

I know right? Whenever I read about these two’s feud, the author always clearly has an opinion on who was the aggressor (Not Kelly!). Its probably, like most things with sisters, pretty complicated. OdH seems to say her sister was always looking for an opportunity to feel slighted, but ehhhm, it seems like it was a…

Sure, but for every posh London accent of tv and film (and presumably real life) you’ve got the gargled Manchester utterances of a Gallagher brother.

I didn’t read Billington’s comment as downplaying what happened to Soskin. This had to have been a targeted break-in because this dude had some sort of grudge against her for God only knows why. I’d venture that most other home invasions are to get stuff to then sell for money. This guy won’t be able to do that. I…

I don’t know if I’ve ever wanted someone to be president so much in my life. Like, I really wanted Obama to, but for mostly symbolic reasons (from the historicity of being the first African American president to the true power of his rhetoric and ideals... I mean, that “red state/blue state/united states” line STILL…

She’s already eager to go back to work this week. Supremely badass woman.

Same.

The entire piece by the Times is worth a read, it’s a great look at how she would approach her first 100 days and also just a reasonable take on her in general.

I would love to live in a world where the Bernie Bro is a moot point. The fact that you realized that a Bernie or bust movement would be counterproductive to what Bernie would actually want automatically makes you different. You understand that there is a bigger picture and that no candidate is truly perfect. You get…

An afternoon of cocktails with HRC and RBG? That sounds SO AWESOME.

It reminds me of that time when RBG responded to the question “When will there be enough women on the supreme court?” and she said when there is 9. It caused a mild uproar that women thought we deserved more than half. Men have had more than half for, what, over 200 years? Women take a third for a couple years, and…

Yay! Also, she is on my list of people I would like to have a drink with.

They always crack me up with that “best person” bullshit like the women would be just totally randos off the street. “Hey? You a girl? Good. You’re Secretary of Defense now.” Of course, bros have to be outraged because it is what they have.

She is flaunting her WOMAN CARD!

I was a Bernie supporter, until I finally realized he couldn’t win. I even donated to his campaign and called people for hours during the primaries. But I would be lying if I said I wasn't PUMPED AS HELL about our first female president. It's about damn time.

“Nothing about us without us".... I like this very much.

Cue the bros outraged that she’s hiring considering gender and not ‘the best person for the job’.

Cabinets full of women > binders full of women.
