He’s definitely 49. He was the president of Stanford Class of 1991, the year I graduated, and I just turned 49. You can tell with me, though, because I’m rapidly going gray. 

Not sure who I’m appropriating from with my “?!” tattoo.

That’s an argument against Sherrod Brown in Ohio with a Republican governor and GOP dominated state. It is not an argument in California, where the governor is a Democrat, all statewide offices are held by Dems, the Dems have a supermajority in both houses of the state legislature, and ORANGE COUNTY no longer has any…

Agreed. I also feel like people forget what the job of being President means. It means that sometimes you have to make decisions when there are no good alternatives. It’s a given that anyone sitting at the Resolute desk will make decisions that mean people will die, and the best-case scenario is minimizing the number…

Yeah, I kind of want an explanation of the “It’s not rape if you enjoy it” thing.

When I saw the photos I remembered them from the ‘80's in downtown Chicago. They used to harrass my friends and me because we were a group of goth black teenaged girls. We just ignored them or occasionally pointed and laughed in passing, but we never engaged because we had better things to do with our time.

Even Republicans in border states don’t want the wall, because they know it won’t work and will just inconvenience them. It’s the rabid racists in places like Ohio and Nebraska who are nowhere near  any borders but are convinced that MS-13 is coming for them (and not other Latinx folks) that desperately want Wall to…

That all sounds so complicated. I just made sure to hit the dispensary on Thursday and stock up on edibles. Now the pork roast is in the oven, the sweet potatoes are done, and my wife’s making the green beans. A little 1:1 chocolate and I’m not stressing. 

I’m so happy that she’s going to the school of her choice. I’m infuriated that she can’t actually play baseball because there’s no path for women in the sport past Little League. 

There’s supporting the Palestinian cause, and then there’s promoting a book by a guy who claims Jews staged the Holocaust for reasons, and then there’s writing a “poem” telling people to Google how the Jews want to enslave all non-Jews. Walker’s gone way past supporting the Palestinians into full-on Holocaust…

What the police did was awful, and the HRA person who called the police in the first place is a piece of shit. But seriously, no one in that office thought, “Let me get up so this woman and her child can sit down.”? 

Nothing—that’s the point. Verizon’s banning visual porn and “female-presenting nipples” from Tumblr, but despite many complaints, they seem to have no problem with hosting fansites for racist murderers and, y0u know, Nazis.

THANK YOU. I thought I’d been transported to Opposite Land and I was about to be pissed because at least I should get the timeline where T**** isn’t president. 

Wonder how many homophobic jokes he’ll include?

The pencil wreath looks like her husband’s anus-mouth.

She’s a runway model who knows her job: to look good and support her man until he finally dies and she can make bank. The distant and untouchable affect  is her “onstage” public face. 

Certainly not in Florida—no, my bad. Stand Your Ground doesn’t apply to people who look black. 

Jesus was remarkably clear about some things, like “feed the hungry; clothe the naked; love your neighbor; don’t be selfish.” That all went out the window when it became the state religion of Rome. White evangelicals would shoot Jesus for being a brown guy from the Middle East with a Mexican name who talks like a…

So far, North Sentinel Island has been left alone because there’s nothing there anyone wants yet. Other islands and their indigenous people haven’t been so lucky. India has had real problems with “human safaris” where tourists go to gawk at the “natives”; on one of the islands they discovered that tribal women were…

The Sentinalese look pretty Black African. Anthropologists think that they’re directly descended from the first people who migrated to Asia from Africa 60,000 years ago. And some chucklehead from Washington state may have hastened their end by bringing his microbes to their protected space because Jesus.
