The alt-right uses the Kermit tea meme as a racist flag. 

That’s the point.

It’s happened here. Multiple times. Overzealous assholes going after women who had miscarriages and claiming it was induced. One woman got put in jail for miscarrying after an attempted suicide.

I think it’s one of those that, for normal people, yes, frog + tea emoji is referring to the kermit sipping tea meme. But for MAGA chuds that benefit of the doubt is gone, because the Pepe frog is one of the most “ohoho it’s just a character from a webcomic, it doesn’t mean anything! *wink*” signifiers of the…

This might not wholly answer you, but I found it intriguing.

Can you imagine being such a spineless bootlicker that you care more about Chelsea Manning breaking laws, than the crimes of the US empire? Couldn't be me. 

I do love the stance of the “progressives” on Assange.

So is the long story short of this going to be that Assange and Chelsea Manning are going to get more punished than the people that committed war crimes?   Is that what is going to happen?    They are the bad criminals?    Not the people that gunned down innocent women and children?    Not the people that lied about…

I’m pretty sure I did have a miscarriage recently. I’m not trying to get pregnant, do not want children, and am honestly quite happy that it happened if that was the case. It was an unusually early, long, heavy, painful, *clotty* period. Like, clots bigger than my thumb. I had a doc appointment awhile later, and she…

And rich women will "visit a European relative" during their convalescence. Of course a cousin will be invented who "adopted the poor babe" if they even have to explain

“He seemed to enjoy the idea of lots and lots of Julians, one on every continent.”

It’s not just that. I posted about this on a different article, there is a psychological payoff for these people who see themselves as the victims for speaking truth to power. They take an extreme position on abortion, get rightly shouted down and mocked, the negative feedback reinforces their victimhood and their…

That noise you hear from the right is them crying “Nooooooooo! You are going to give up the game too quick before we soften people up! SMALL STEPS before we get to that!”.

But consenting adults need to also consider the repercussions of the sexual relationship that they’re gonna have, which is a child,” Tinderholt said.

This is the absolute worst thing ever. Am I the only one who has this very weird feeling of surprised/not surprised and sinking/utterly horrified, for lack of a better way of phrasing what I’m feeling and thinking right now?

As a transgender person, maybe I can weigh in on this for you then on several points:

Here’s the deal. Trans kids don’t take hormones. They take hormone blockers that keep them from going through puberty. Then at 18 they can chose to begin hormone therapy to transition or stop the blockers and go through puberty. Hormone blockers are soooo, soooo important. The number of trans kids who commit suicide…

No one is sexualizing children by affirming their stated sexuality. If homophobia didn’t exist, a big deal wouldn’t need to be made to make LGBTQ children feel safe and accepted to counteract the rest of the world. But it does. And you’re not being honest if you think heterosexuality is not assumed and “celebrated”…

What rhetoric? Are you fucking kidding? She’s pointing out basic objective facts and people are threatening to kill her. Who the fuck ungreyed you?

You already know we gon’ have to.
