When other actors were distancing themselves, Elizabeth was out in front of the AIDS epidemic. She stood up for the victims of AIDS and helped de-stigmatize them. She was the face of compassion for AIDS victims. I’m absolutely positive that without her many more AIDS victims would have died, many of them alone,

I will be honest, I never really had much of an opinion of Elizabeth Taylor one way or another. I don’t think she’s a great actress or anything. But damn, this just makes me love her.

I believe my donation went to the local chapter, but I live in New York, so maybe it would have been better to give to one of the chapters in a red state? To be honest, I didn't think too much about it, I got up this morning, opened my laptop, and did it. I've absolutely had it with the anti-choice movement.

i thought i was the only one who thought of that scene from MIB when i hear of police shooting first, then going oops.

i read it as reavers

I like where you’re going with this, but turning a uterus into a business is much more of a Blanche Devereaux kinda thing. Maybe I’ll turn my uterus into a church?

GOP women hate other women. Who aren’t enslaved to men.

The idea that teenage girls are always “taken advantage of” in sexual situations is pervasive, even outside of the GOP. Anecdotally, I have some generally liberal relatives and friends who assume, in even in 2015, that it’s always the teenage boy who convinces the reluctant teenage girl to have sex, and that there’s

Its also a complete logic fail from the sentence wording. The onus is on the girls for letting - a word implying consent - boys take advantage of them - a phrase which implies lack of consent. If the boys are taking advantage there is no letting happening.

Right. Because noone asks the question of, “Why are boys (and in many instances, men) taking advantage of 15 year old girls?”

Because teens are designed to become horny as hell after puberty? Because sex feels good? Because sex is (GASP!) super fun a lot of the time?

What do you think his username on Ashley Madison was?

One of my more racist relatives was shocked when I responded to her support for Donald Trump’s Mexico wall by telling her that my boyfriend is first generation American, and his family is from Mexico. She loves him, and apparently had no idea he came from immigrants because he “talks so American.” I die.

Looks like you need this

“You know what the values tell you? Why are you 15-years-old and letting some boy take advantage of you?”

He’s not saying “Buy American”. That would be fine.

Especially when very few things are actually American made anymore, and many of the things that are American made (cars, I’m looking right at you) suck donkey balls.

Harper’s version of “Buy American” and “Buy local” screws over local brown peoples.

Ugh, goddamn fuck all of these xenophobic assholes. And your “american made” “support local economies” bullshit is so transparent. It’s 100% about being racist and screwing over brown people. No matter that they are good, enterprising and hard-working people. People that embody the values that are what America is
