So we’re supposed to go all covert and create a file on a dude before we start dating them? That’s not reality and you know it. Besides, controlling men don’t respond well to being “just friends.”

Excel is love, Excel is life. Embrace Excel and it's infinite spreadsheets.

Really? What’s a better punishment? We complain about mass incarceration in the abstract but want to keep everyone in prison forever in the concrete.

Also as a woman in tech, you have to be aggressive to get ANYONE to listen to you and get anything done.

This was hard to watch, since they acted like such fucking idiots. Good ideas, though.

It’s her! She’s pregnant!

I’m going to make a drinking game out of the comments here. Every time someone calls is “Chipolte” instead of “Chipotle” I’ll take a drink...

Exactly. Nobody’s saying she should go free. Even if she’s guilty, people in prison shouldn’t be tortured by being held in solitary for 20 years and not being given medical treatment.

Responsible is one thing. Tortured is quite another.

Anger is a natural way to react to someone convicted of horrific crimes. That’s why prison reform moves slowly and why human rights violations in prison don’t raise the same outrage as those outside prison. But the worst criminals are still human beings and their treatment reflects on the society that detains them.

How we treat the incarcerated reflects on us, not them.

You know how many people have described solitary, especially for extended periods of time as torture. We tolerate solitary for thousands of inmates, many in for non-violent crimes. Even if Synthia is now out of her cell, this remains a real problem. When people say “Well look at what they did,” I don’t know how that…

The fact that anyone still takes Cathy Brennan seriously shows how far we have left to go. This is a person who deliberately doxxes trans* teenagers purely to do them harm.
