Oh, I’m so sorry for your loss.

Thank you. She was really special; I still can’t believe I was lucky enough to be her mama.

It really is. Your dog sounds like they were a wonderful companion.

Your marshmallow sounds like a little badass who didn’t want to leave his family! I’m so glad he made it through.

Can I cat brag for a minute? My beloved baby passed away in October after 14 years of being the best. She never saved me from a direct threat but:

Are people still dragging him for his white supremacy or just the cheating?

I am a Buffy fan (clearly) and am loving this comments section. All time favorite characters: Willow, Anya, Giles, Drusilla. Favorite episodes: Villains, The Wish, the Dark Age.

Last week he spoke at the Celebration of Life for Mike Illitch*, and I’m told he made some less than subtle digs at Trump, including reminding the audience that Illitch’s father was an immigrant.

I was very surprised she didn’t win. One the reasons I thought it deserved Best Picture was that not only was the story/acting compelling, unique and important, the entire package of movie making worked together to tell the story. It was very much a whole film and the editing was something that stood out to me as a…

That is a valid point - I have no idea what else would bring it down other than a feminist revolution paired with a radical queer revolution.

I hope that teachers, administrators, trans students and their parents remember that Title IX still protects students from discrimination based on sex, and trans kids have every right to demand that it protect them, too.

I already left a super long comment but: I’m also a little troubled by this idea that a uber-supportive community is the answer to patriarchal/capitalist structures. I don’t know *what* the answer is and when I read about community support and support for those who super need it and not stepping on the backs of…

There are a lot of good points but I struggle with the idea that partnership/marriage are inherently anti-feminist. This argument came up a lot about the fight for marriage equality; that advocating for it was against progressive values because it reinforces patriarchal and capitalist structures.

There’s no doubt that the DOJ is going to rescind the guidance the Department of Education and the DOJ issued last year on trans kids using the gender specific spaces that correlate to their gender identity. One of the first things Sessions did was drop the appeal against the stay that had been issued. I’m sure that…

I saw the first two episodes at a thing an HBO rep did and can’t remember if this is in the first or second episode so I apologize if this is spoilerish but: I thought the scene where Nicole Kidman’s husband is hitting her and she’s trying to defend herself and then they have brief and what looks like terrible sex was…

I spent this afternoon talking about advocating for trans students/best policies for trans students at a institute day for K-12 teachers in a medium sized, slightly rural midwestern town.

If you work at a place that does shift work, like some hospitality/food service jobs, retail, etc., offer to switch shifts with your female co-workers if they want to do the strike and are likely to (or already are) scheduled to work that day, so they don’t have to use a day off and/or face a reprimand from…

The Greens lost me by running Jill Stein a second time, so I’m hoping the Democratic party can get it together (or that a progressive alternative to the Green Party will emerge). I’m not an anarchist and a bit of a lemming, so I like the idea of having a political party I can get behind and involved with.

I’ve been wondering what Bannon has on him, too, not because of that but because Trump is so obsessed with optics and Bannon is a slob. If Sean Spicer’s suits bothered him, how is he not bothered by Bannon’s....everything.

I am way tardy to the party on this, but....
