Yes. I was trying to figure out how to talk to my dad about LGBT rights and the only compelling thing I could think of was saying hey dad I’m gay. Now what? Is it ok for me to be fired for that reason alone? His position is that it’s his duty to tell people who aren’t being godly that it’s not ok and he and Jesus…

The only moral abortion is my abortion. The only time I do not insult Obamacare is when my insurance is cut. The only time I promote gay rights is when my child comes out to me.

“What are the possibilities of life on this ‘Sol’ star?”
“Oh, very slim indeed. For one thing, Sol is more than 12 times the size of our own star. Surely far too large to be habitable. Also it’s lifespan is only around 10 billion years, unlike the trillion year lifespan of our sun. Far too short for life to arise.”
“So…

as long as we do not break Prime Directive, we are good.

Again, I’m not a scientist, but I know science and I think this reestablishes the fact that aliens are real***. It won’t be long before they arrive.

If you told me that every day number 45 wakes up and spends his entire morning trying to figure out how to be worse then the day before I would believe you.

Do you think it’s possible to be a feminist and not devote every action of your life to feminism?

We can talk about that, but let’s not pretend that suddenly capitalism is an issue when a Black woman is rich and famous as fuck. Let’s not criticize every famous Black woman who says she’s a feminist while praising famous white women for the bare minimum. And let’s not dismiss Beyonce for being sexual while praising…

I feel the same way about the “changing the last name” discussions that go on around here. Keep your name, change your name- do whatever the fuck you want- but stop claiming that the reason you chose to take on someone else’s name is feminist because “I have no attachment to my family name” or “I want the whole family…

Do you think it’s possible to be a feminist and not devote every action of your life to feminism?

I’m personally sick of cutesy, swallow, self-centered feminism.
