Hitler likes dogs! He’s just like us!

Exactly. Fallon mentioned in that NYT piece a few months ago that he wished he would have addressed the hair-ruffling (ostensibly because of the effect it had on his ratings). Yesterday was another opportunity for him to do just that—to acknowledge and atone for having giggled along with a vile, grotesque monster and…

It’s absolutely fair to say that when the one coming up short was an active participant in normalizing Trump and is still giving weak statements today. If Fallon wanted to stay out of politics, he would stay out of politics. He doesn’t get to have candidates on his show, goof around with maniacs who have built their…

If Jimmy Fallon worked at Chotchkie’s he’d be the server with the most flair. He’d have like 37 fucking piece of flair, okay. And a terrific smile.

This would be a fair response in another situation. Not when things are this bad.

This isn’t the type of thing we should make into a competition.

Seems important enough for Jez to follow suit. WhiteFeminismTM is a recurring critique of this site, and the silence so far probably doesn’t do anything to assuage people of that notion.

Splinter and The Root both have stories covering it

FYI: Nazi’s are marching in Charlottesville, VA. Many brought guns, lot’s of violence. National guard and riot police finally out. Some reporters on the scene: https://twitter.com/letsgomathias

Look, I’m not a Taylor Swift fan, but I am a fan of women standing up to their abusers and not backing down. There are lots and lots of problematic things about Swift, and she deserves to be criticized for those things, but this situation is not one of them. This man and his lawyer came at her and tried to make her at…

If she is a mindless tool, she’s probably one of those badass ones like a sledgehammer or a pneumatic drill or a flamethrower.

This has done more to move her from “sweetheart” to badass than anything else could have.

On why the front of her skirt was not lifted:

Sometimes the misogynist tides go out long enough that you can smell the racism.

“Don’t you just love the smell of misogyny all over the internet?”

Me too, particularly after the town hall I went to last night, in which the Republican congresswoman and GOP constituents applauded Trump’s “firm language” and said things like, “Finally, SOMEONE is doing something about North Korea.”

I just keep wondering “What happens with two bullies?”

Having spent way too much time dwelling on the realities of what you’d face in some sort of apocalyptic scenario, I decided I actually don’t want to live through one anyway. When life gets reduced to searching for clean water and shelter, I’m out.

Not all countries.
