I think this article does a better job explaining my misgivings with this law:

Maybe. Crime tends to happen between people of the same race and women of color experience higher rates of sexual assault. So if you want justice for those women it likely means sending more men of color away.

Any other feminists out there who also work in criminal defense? I’m new to this world but finding it hard to reconcile what feels like two competing sets of priorities at the intersection of sexual violence and criminal law. On the one hand, yay for survivors I guess? Not that I expect this to actually change campus…

I was actually most emotionally invested in the cure for Stone’s eczema, after the show couldn’t go more than 5 minutes without showing him scratching it with a chopstick. I was so sad for him in the finale when it all came flaring back :(

Yeah as a lawyer in training I was YELLING at the tv during the witness examinations. When the DA asked Naz if he did it and he said “I don’t know” and the defense attorney just let that go without a re-direct? Just get up there and asks if he likes kittens! Anything so the last impression the jury is left with isn’t…

Yes. I use a poofy loofah but my bf uses a washcloth and it’s so gross. When he hangs it on a hook, and it dries, IT SOLIDIFIES AND DRIES INTO THE SHAPE IT TOOK WHILE HANGING. Like, a washcloth should not be able to hold a shape. Ugh.

So many opinions about soap, who knew. I use bar soap in the shower because it’s more environmentally friendly than buying a big ol plastic tub of goo (less packaging + less transportation cost). I use the Neutrogena facial bars for body and face because I have no idea who convinced us we need separate soaps for the…

There’s also Bronner’s bar soaps though!

I’ve always felt like employers bring unions on themselves, so I don’t really care about their whining when a union comes to their door. You don’t want your employees to unionize? Respect them, pay them a livable wage, give them decent hours, provide opportunities for advancement, don’t fire at will. Voila, you’ve…

You guys, honestly, I really think someone is holding Avril hostage in 2005. I’m kind of worried about her! Avril blink twice if you know it’s 2016 and there’s other dudes out here.

I’m worried about Avril... does she know it’s not 2005 anymore? Is someone holding her hostage there? I mean, Deryk Whibley, Chad Kroeger, and now Ryan Cabrera? Girl we have got some new cuties in 2016 that you might like.

I tweeted at her but haven’t been blocked.. yet.. anyway the confusion seems to be that less that yesterday he repeatedly referred to himself as an Amy Schumer writer:

But shouldn’t she maybe have known that Scientology was a part of the package when she got together with him and decided to have a kid with him? The head of Scientology was the best man at their wedding.

“The liberal media took what I said and went against the law and the Constitution and ran with it, and they said that I wanted her assassinated, which I never did,” Baldasaro told The Republican/MassLive.com.

Reading the AMA she did on the Trump subreddit, it sounds like she was just kind of living quietly until Hillary tweeted something about how all survivors should be believed, and that set her off on this recent campaign. But yeah it does seem weird that she would not be as focused on preventing Bill, the actual…

I’m weird like this but I don’t like potlucks because nothing *goes* together. You have your lentil soup and your spaghetti and your bean salad and three types of chips and there’s just no continuity to the menu at all.. when I cook at home and make a main and a side I try to keep them in the same cuisine or flavor…

True that, I don’t know why, for some reason someone else making the same recipe in their own kitchen - chili, lasagna, enchiladas, whatever - is grosser to me than if I made the exact same recipe in my own kitchen. I don’t trust other people!

It seems like there is way more work being put into promoting this movie instead of just making a good movie in the first place? Like the PR for this movie is SO THIRSTY. We’re a thing! Look at us! Haha we’re so crazy!

If you haven’t heard of her before, Kamaiyah is another great female rapper coming up out of Oakland.

It is kind of annoying how some men only finally arrive at feminism when it dawns on them how sexism/gender-based inequality affects their wives or daughters. But it seems similar to how some in the LGBT community push for closeted people to come out, because all of a sudden when people have a personal connection to…
