From what I understand, women’s soccer in the US brings in far more money than men’s. Odds are high that the US women’s team will win the Olympics. The men’s team definitely won’t. It’s really hard to see why the men’s team is making so much more money when financially they aren’t as valuable.

Except they are words because language is always evolving and creativity with language is fun and interesting and also many marginalized communities use language as a way to push back against oppression and colonialist bullshit. Unless your language is dead, like Latin, then it’s not evolving or changing. But in this…

this is a wonderful twete

Sex workers and trafficking victims are two different groups. Why does sex work have to be empowering in order for it to be acceptable? Frankly, I don’t know any person in any job who feels empowered by their role.

You know what else is oppressive? Working several jobs and not having enough to cover your costs. If you choose to engage in sex work, that is your business. We need cut out this bullshit of “protecting women” when in reality they want to restrict women. Banking is morally reprehensible too but you have thousands of…

I wish I could have been apolitical at 18.

“If you’re not a liberal when you’re 20, you have no heart. If you’re not a conservative when you’re 40, you have no head.”

Starred because it deserves to be ungreyed. But I disagree that conservative policies are reasonable about money - see our military spending, the long term cost of cutting funding to health care, social safety nets, and education. It doesn't matter if you save a dime here if you lose a dollar later because your…

So, you were right wing because your boyfriend was? And it’s hard playing catch up as an 18 year old voter? Really?

We can watch this and say

Excellent song, excellent brawl.

It’s very hard to both acknowledge that Clinton’s popularity is mired by sexist attitudes about women in public life, and that there are also other reasons why folks distrust her or dislike her. If you bring up one of these points, people tend to hit you over the head with the other fact, as if they can’t both be…

Bill Clinton bombed Iraq too, and Hillary voted to bomb it some more.
