i’m starting to feel as though we have nothing in common with our newly elected mandarin husk.

See, it seems petty... But also it’s a basic fucking litmus test too. “Can you, when pressed by the United States Congress, speak the literal truth? Or are you a deluded lunatic 100% of the time?”

petty af. it’s funny but i wish we could deal with serious issues like that goddamn heartbeat bill.

This is some petty shit and I am living for it.

It’s because those reichwing women are EXTRA threatened by seeing masses of free women. We do what they can’t. We go where they won’t. We say what they’re scared to say. They’re stuck having to match their views on feminism with their husbands’. We get to go without makeup & don’t give a fuck if their husbands find us…

Actually standing for office, or finding a candidate to stand, is a big one. There were a dozen or so R bastards running unopposed on my ballot, this is how we got where we are.

The Washington Post’s comments are really, really bad these days-just a cesspool. I know this because I can’t help myself but to read comments, but really they ought to follow the lead if many other respectable publications and seriously restrict if not end comments altogether.

So, just as a reminder:

Well, out of curiosity I did the math (correctly I think), using my pre-ACA IUD price of $500 and my latest protest sign purchase of about $5. My signs were in a 3-pack, so that makes about 300 signs. Plus, I splurged on premium foamboard that was pre-cut into easily carried dimensions. 

Remember, President* Trump will personally benefit from the pipeline. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: it’s a good thing that his conflicts of interest aren’t over something truly sinister, like helping African children with AIDS.

My Trump-voting colleague has spent the last year interviewing and going through the motions to enroll in a particular federal job training program that would have guaranteed him a significantly higher salary and better benefits than our current job. Hebjust told me that he can’t get hired now because of Trump’s…

These fucking guys can’t even insult us properly.

Thank you for this. A woman isn’t lacking in agency just because she’s making decisions you don’t agree with. I might concede that she’s in over her head, but to cast her as someone so blank that she can’t muster up the power to make her own decisions is a disservice to both her, and other women like her. Just because…

As a Gemini, a part of me wants to apologize but another...doesn’t?

I apologize on behalf of all Geminis.

You know, my SO told me about this, and I thought he was joking. (In my defense my SO didn’t know what specific day was being named a National Patriot Day, he helpfully suggested that it should be “the first Monday after the Super Bowl”). This is real life?? Making his own inauguration day a fucking holiday?? Even Kim…

You all know that’s why Michelle had that face. It was a “Oh hell no, did the Don really just do that???”

I wish I could say I was shocked, but I’m not. Resisting arrest is a blatantly stupid charge because, let’s be honest, if you’ve got four officers pinning you to the ground and using strikes and possibly a baton on you, you’re going to move from pain, from being restrained, from having your airway cut off, etc.

oh, but we didnt demoralize him, sean - he came to us, quite honestly, without any morals at all.

What say you, cheerleaders?
