I agree, I just think this is one of those intent vs impact things. Like I think this call-out was really tame and balanced because I don’t think her post was malicious at all and I didn’t get the sense the author did either, it was just ignorant and needs to be addressed because little stuff adds up.

But is it more offensive to assume transgender people lack any sense of humor about their lives at all?

It’s hard out here for a pimple.

So positive tests are going to result in the offer of rehab or counseling for the applicant?

Haha ok that's pretty funny. I’ll allow it.

Woah.. you’re saying that by reifying language to the extent that it does, this current generation is banalizing the meaning-function of language, and all in a vain, semi-literate attempt to hyper-affirm personal identity in a process of egocentricism so extreme that the term narcissism barely covers it? I find that…

How does this not have more stars??

I don’t think you’re at all wrong about being of two minds about Clinton (I wasn’t old enough to vote during his terms, but my parents were huge supporters and I was born and raised in DC so I was extremely aware of his presidency in a lot of ways), I just disagree with you on your characterizations of his “pandering”…

Clinton promised one thing and when he tried to execute it, Republicans and homophobes put together enough support and votes to do the opposite of it and as much harm as possible, so he went for a compromise that would pass and at least partially protect gays in the military, which is all he could pass.

DADT actually counted as a relaxing of laws around homosexuality in the military, which had previously been grounds for dishonorable discharge and instituted an absolute ban on gay and bisexual men and women serving in the Army, including pre-screening to root…

Okay, but theoretically, if all rapes WERE considered hate crimes due to the underlying misogyny required in a person to commit one (drunk or not...ugh), then maybe the rape kits would be getting tested? This is a fantasy of course, you can’t snap your fingers and make people realize that rape is a hate crime but I…

also, “You have to be cruel to be kind”. But only in the right measure.

I assure you, Sir, that we do not serve Mudbugs. These are special lobsters, very rare. Very tiny but otherwise exceedingly rich. We call them Trump lobsters.

She was for subway tokens before she was against them.

“Hes also wear a sweatshirt”

Little Ditty with Jo and dying.

...with a knee and fork.

I thought that the abortion was punishment enough

No I’m not. In fact, I’m not rendering an opinion on whether anyone should or shouldn’t vote for Hillary Clinton, at all. I’m just pointing out that the logic of her argument is, “Demanding a candidate who represents your interests is for the rich; everybody else has to take what the process gives them; therefore you…

Maybe. I don’t carry tampons unless its that time of the month. I also don’t carry around spare sewing kits, screwdrivers, duct tape, etc. Does he also have those things in his fanny pack? or just vaginal assistance paraphernalia?
