Cheeto Voldemort was not too far from my house this weekend, as the guest speaker for a Bollywood-style fundraiser for terror victims. I was going to try to organize some good old-fashioned signs-and-shouting action but a) it wasn’t clear what time CV would arrive and b)I didn’t want to be perceived as being AGAINST…

Normally, I’d be all, “Hey! That gendered language is insensitive and makes assumptions!” Except in this case I’m like, “Well, who are we kidding.”

I want a world in which I can read news, stories, articles and comments without vomit rising in my throat on the daily.

I believe Jane Doe/Katie Johnson.

My dog ate an orange highlighter last night. In a few hours I should be able to send you a picture of my idea for what should play Trump.

First, place a bet with a Vegas bookmaker that will result in a $5M take should HRC win. Then, front the leak fee money to this or another similarly brave producer. Finally, pour champagne.

Good point. Following that same train of thought, what about this? I get served ads for Trump Winery as a wedding venue while reading Jezebel. It causes a metric fuckton of cognitive dissonance, because here I am just trying to watch clips of FLOTUS and then BOOM there’s drone footage of douchebaggery assaulting my…

Mighty big talk from someone who RIGHT NOW is facing allegations of raping a then-thirteen-year-old girl.

Between “it was a joke” and “freeze peach” my money is on “freeze peach.”

thank..you..for..this..opp...or..tu..ni..ty..

Wear a full body Tyvek suit with a beekeeper’s mask, and use a Speak & Spell to answer all questions.

Nope. Dead on.

No, and it has not gone unnoticed. I had a lovah ask me about this once in a co-shower. I had to think about it. I was like, “Sometimes I shave the dirt off? If I shave?” Then I went back to trying not to get piffed in the eyes with water because coshowering is only sexy in theory if you have a small shitty college…

(I can’t believe I’m even responding to this, but I’m feeling frisky....)

I know. This seems like an idea terrible enough to rival the Jump To Conclusions Mat.

ABSOLUTELY. I (professional, affluent, white woman) read Lean In and my privilege alarm bells were ringing on every.single.page.

Oh yes, I have members of my family who are “lifelong Republicans” but don’t see the hypocrisy in their lockstep support of Trump. One aunt-in-law made sure to emphasize that she has voted Republican since she registered at 18, but still maintains that she supports our queer family more than anyone else in the…

I’m using in the sense of the war hawks/bible thumpers/business interests coalition that has come to define American conservatism, and therefore the GOP, since probably, Reagan, I guess. The thing is that coalition doesn’t hang together as neatly as it once did. What should happen is a disintegration and a…

Yeah, I called into my local NPR station when Nate Silver was on to ask about that. (I know, nerd alert.) I didn’t get to ask my question, but they did bring up a few good points about the differences between national polls, likely voter polls, swing states, etc. Basically the idea is to never hang too much on any one…

How long before we start putting quotation marks around Republican when referring to him as the Republican party nominee? First a (shitty, inadequate, insulting) paid leave plan and now a (shitty, inadequate, insulting) statement on OTC birth control?
