There’s wisdom here that needs to be expounded more widely and loudly - Covid-19 is NOT GONE. It’s only too easy for things to get started back up again and we’ll be right back here, holed up in our homes and waiting for the shambling, hacking, wheezing, spitting zombies to finish infecting each other and die off.

Initially, I thought “defense attorney being a defense attorney”. Then she just kept talking. I really took special exception to her saying that she “didn’t put herself” in “those” situations. I was in a long-term, committed relationship and was sexually assaulted by my partner. Just because you don’t “put yourself”…

Strangling someone to death requires so much strength, both in the hands and upper arms and back, and so much persistence, and so much mentally being okay with holding the person down and watching them beg for mercy, that I can’t square it with any kind of BDSM scene that anyone could consider consensual.

Bella Hadid is well on her way to becoming Melania Trump.

just to be clear, there is literally nothing a black man could ever do that would be good enough for the White Feminists™ at Jez. and there is nothing that will ever motivate them to confront their own privilege or racism. 

The Democrats can’t do anything unless they get elected. And not just the White House, because if the GOP still controls the Senate after the 2020 election, Moscow Mitch will block every bill and every judicial nomination that comes along from a Democratic president and Democratic House. From someone living in the…

True fact: Pete actually has an average penis, but he does have a 9 inch tongue and breathes through his ears.

Seriously, these questions were Extremely leading. Unless you spend a lot of time reading up on TERFs and their arguments, one could easily fall for these traps. Obviously Chelsea does, as do many in her generation and younger. Hilary answered the way I expect a politician to do when they sense a trick question, but…

I am decidedly not a Hillary fan, but this is a very uncharitable take on what she has said here. 

So, she reveals that she supports trans people and that she’s learning and trying to better herself on a topic and human condition that she wasn’t familiar with for most of her life. And the takeaway here is that that’s “not pretty”? The purity tests are unreal.

Bingo.  Its an odd tendency for many to try to box out allies on these issues and more.

I agree. I think it's a lot better to say "I'm still learning" than to just spout off at the mouth.

Vaping is pretty awful. Currently, my bf’s son has middle school classmates doing during lunch (because they can hide the vape in their hands) & on his bus. Some of the packages are made to look virtually identical to candy packages. The candy flavoring and the packaging that appeals to kids is extremely unethical…

“I have been Juuling for years . . . Common sense would dictate that if vaping were so dangerous that we all need to stop vaping immediately, that people would have fallen sick before this summer.”

I saw the first sentence of your reply in my notifications, and I was coming here to reply: “Thank you.”

Tough choice. On the one hand, Mitch McConnell has been easily the most reprehensible person in politics for the last 10 years. On the other hand, McGrath doesn’t line up 100% with my vision of what I think a liberal should be, so...

She's offering the exact moderate Democratic political profile Kyrsten Sinema just ran on in crimson red Arizona. And won.

Anyone who can take the Senate floor away from that evil turtle is good enough for me.  I don’t care if she’s Manchin’s long lost twin and won’t hang with the democrats on key votes. For now, just unseat that asshole. 

...but McGrath is a self-described moderate who believes the Democrats currently running for president are veering too far to the left. She doesn’t support eliminating private insurance under a Medicare-for-all plan, nor does she support subsidizing healthcare for undocumented immigrants. She also describes herself as…

Kentucky is red, red, rose red. AOC would probably get less votes in the entire state than she did in her one district. So, I mean, if someone wants to even be potentially maybe able to win office, they won’t exactly be a NY or SF liberal, you know?
