Look at the utter betrayal as he clings for life to his handler. He thinks he’s going to die and his human is like FUCK YOU, GO DIE. I can’t imagine putting cash ahead of the needs of my dog.

Poor dog! When a German Shepherd doesn’t want to do something it’s usually because it’s a dumb thing to do.

Yeah, I’m not even going to watch that clip.

Well, keep in mind that, “I just don’t like the way she does things, but I don’t know how” has been used basically forever to put women down, so by agreeing with Allred’s motives while decrying her methods, it’s easy to fall into that trap and just end up dismissing her altogether.

The things Pence would do can be fixed. Laws can be repealed, judges replaced in time, ect. You can’t un-push the red button. I’ll take The Handmaid’s Tale (fighting the whole way) over The Road, terrible as it might be.

We’ve had shitty governments before. Enough of the doom and gloom, start thinking about what you want and how to help achieve it. Start now, because elections are in less than two years.

Fuck this. Being a Rockette is one of the best full time gigs you can get as a dancer. It is also some god damn hard ass work.

This is not a logical consistency. Power structures are inherent in the baker/cake | dancer/dance equation. The people who are representative of the perceived majority may have *personal*…

Because the position was previously held by Valerie Jarrett, so this position is supposed to go to a black woman, and they only know one.

Its this kind of thing that really fucks up the left and progress in general. In this instance, Tilda had a constructive conversation with her peer about how to address an issue, and then Cho takes it and warps it and makes it ugly.

now that i’ve read margaret and tilda’s conversation, i have to wonder if margaret did as well.

(Full disclosure: I am a historian of US women’s history.) Sanger was absolutely a product of her time, but it’s ahistorical to judge her based on modern ideas and values. She was so focused on the birth control movement that she was willing to ally with almost anyone and speak to almost anyone (even the Women’s…

Her misfortune, her tragic mistake, was taking up with those who were racists and not seeing where their policies led. But here’s the rub. The men who touted eugenics have not gone down in history’s hall of shame. If you do an online search of Teddy Roosevelt, or the African-American civil rights activist W.E.B.…

I have a new OB and she told me on our first meeting that their practice does 18 week anatomy scans instead of 20 week scans because of the law in South Carolina that limits abortions past 20 weeks. She said it’s not medically the most ideal thing to do the scan two weeks early, but they hope that any major anomalies…

Many of ‘em can’t hear light bulbs, either. I know. It seems weird when you’re used to it.

Other people can’t smell that?

But it was all for The Work! The Work Work The Work Bill The Work and The Work was The Work.

The first season was sort of decent, but after that it was so slow. Scene after scene of two people talking, with painstaking candor: Bill and Libby, Bill and Virginia, Virginia and Libby, rinse and repeat. So goddamn talky.

Maybe because Negan reminds us a little too much of a certain person who was recently elected? I like to work out my anxiety by getting scared of imaginary zombies, not have it amplified by getting scared of an imaginary dictatorial narcissist.

I find this deluge of information to be conveniently post-election.
