It’s strange but I’ve never had a problem with eating or going to movies (remember going to movies? In a theater?) by myself. Probably because I didn’t get married until I was thirty five and lived on my own for years, but it was always my “regular” setting. I’m A Reader, so I always had a book with me and never…

“The Mayor of 9/11" to “The 9/11 of Mayors”

Right. Like, how Giuliani is going about this—the Four Seasons Total Landscaping, that he shows up to court in a high profile case and doesn’t know what “strict scrutiny” and “rational basis” are, that his fucking hair is leaking—is objectively funny. What he’s trying to actually do, and could still possibly (albeit…

Add another notch to the bedpost of FUCKING OBVIOUS CRIMES THAT THEY WILL NEVER BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR 

Does it sound very dystopian to have to limit gatherings to 6 people or they might die in a horrible out-of-control plague? Absolutely. But that’s the reality that we’re living in at the moment, even if it sounds far-fetched. Accept it.

There’s a couple up, I thought this was one of the better ones:

No, I can’t.  The man had integrity.  Trump is a turd, plain and simple.  His followers are toddlers.  The fact that many of them are “christians” just reminds me my mother was right, religion is a con.  It’s never led to better people or better behavior, instead it often contributes to quite the opposite.

“He is more dug into his position than he was at the beginning,” the person said. “He thinks this is his base for 2024, and that half the country are warriors fighting for him, and that he’s got to keep fighting.”

Who would want to inherit all of that debt? 

Sarah who?

Conversely, tax cuts and benefits to billionaires does just accumulate in Scrooge McDuck-like vaults.

As a trans woman this is one of those things that drives me nuts about republicans. They always talk about gender like it’s some immutable, unchanging thing that has been the same since the dawn of time. Men look like this, women look like that, anything else is profane. Here’s the thing though: gender is completely a…

I was in 8th grade in 2001 when the Twin Towers fell. While I remember parts of that day, what really stands out to me was one year later. Our high school had only been in session for a week or two and the administration decided to do a big assembly to commemorate 9/11. This isn’t necessarily a bad idea on it’s face,…

I was in college, a driver for a local politician who was running for U.S. House of Representatives. He was just “a guy I knew” and it didn’t hit me at the time what a big deal it was he was running for national office. I got the driver gig because a friend was an intern/staffer, and no one else wanted to drive around…

It’s the secret fear of all misogynists (and all racists, too), that once the oppressed gain power, they’ll want to do to the oppressor what’s been done to them.

Just want to chime in and say I’m frustrated as hell with people not adhering to guidelines. I lost 2/3 of my income in April because it’s dependent on live events. I have friends telling me about their anxiety with upcoming travel plans and it’s taking everything in me to not just snap and say “Yeah, you shouldn’t…

Reagan himself is easily the racist turning point of the modern GOP

Biden has Arizona.
