An unmarried man has suddenly adopted another grown man, who he now lives with.  I can’t imagine what all the controversy is all about.  

“Our relationship as a family is defined by our love for each other, not by any paperwork.”

There are all sorts of different, unconventional familial relationships, and I’m not one to police them, nor one to tell people how they can or cannot define their relationships. But, since Matt Gaetz only revealed this adult, Nestor, as his son as a shield in an argument about whether Gaetz, a white man, and other…

That could be his perpetual campaigning slogan. Wouldn’t stop the lumpen from voting for him, anyway.

She could have anonymously donated to the go fund me, in that case.

Yeah, that’s the catch. She made money, but’s not like she was paid that amount. Her stock and business made that much money, and she likely invested large amounts of it into future projects and various hedge funds and securities and other bank shit.

This is how I feel when HR sends out warm fuzzies after a bunch of people donate their own sick time for some employee in crisis.

Wouldn’t be wonderful if we had a system of health care that people wouldn’t have to depend on the kindness of strangers?

I want a show with this twit, Ellen, that bird Sharon Osbourne, and Piers Morgan. Call it “Toxic” and they could interview other toxic assholes every week like Rand Paul, that Bachelor guy and others. Daytime Emmy for sure. People love problematic people.

A long-standing supporter of a hate group is shown to have no integrity. There’s this saying that when somebody shows you who they are believe them. We found out who Tamika was when after consistently shaking her finger at white women for a history of white feminists being willing to tolerate and forward anti-black…

And they (the right, religious nuts, what have you) have been burning art they didn’t like since at least the Renaissance (what was the burning of the vanities if not a big, conservative, catholic cancel party, after all? Or, if you want to go more extreme, the Spanish Inquisition). Point being, they (right…

thanks for this — you’ve touched on something that generally goes unsaid in “the dialogue” about Black Lives Matter, and movements like it — it’s not really configured to support giving people defined leadership roles. nobody can speak for everybody who has a stake in the fight. and yet within that larger fight,…

The only thing that keeps me going some days is the memory of my son’s 4th-grade teacher asking back a former student (my daughter) to read “I Am Jazz” to the class. She was in 7th at the time and the teacher had seen her go from cheerful boy to withdrawn and miserable boy to happy and confident girl. My daughter…

This country is so messed up when it comes to censorship. The most glaring bit of ridiculousness was during the Jan 6th insurrection. They would show the footage of the terrorists beating the policeman, we saw him screaming, they showed the woman getting shot, showed her laying there with blood dripping, but every…

I feel like they’re struggling with the fact that the harassment is subtle compared to a lot of their guys. If you said on Fox News, “He called women lumberjacks when they didn’t dress feminine enough,” too many of their viewers would immediately and sincerely be on his side. So, it does conservatives no good to try…

This so much. I tried to make a similar point to someone recently who was downplaying Cuomo’s behavior.

I remember when a politician called me a girl. At the time, I was in my 30s, and I honestly had no idea what he was talking about. (My mom has this nasty habit too. I was telling her about a work problem, and she kept referring to my coworker as a girl. I had to remind my mom that the woman was in her 50s!)

19 times. people had complained about this hell-hole to various authorities 19 times in the past, and they did nothing.

Christian boarding school?!?

I also don’t care enough to look it up, but China’s military is becoming more “masculine” because they got a bigger Navy? Who’s in the navy? Is it just men? Also, I’ve seen pregnant women throw heavy objects at caterers over cupcake colors, if they had guns and were in battle... it would be fucking terrifying.
