yeah i’m not making excuses for him, but i bet if she had said “what does #timesup mean to you?” it would’ve gone more eloquently.

I’d be on your side if he wasn’t wearing a pin that said “Time’s Up”. Don’t wear a pin supporting a cause if you don’t even know what that cause is. And expect to be asked about it.

it’s darkly gratifying watching conservative american catholics try to square their aggravation at a (relatively) more progressive Pope with their belief in infallibility

I think that’s the point though. You can. We all can, it’s just so fucking hard sometimes. It’s so hard when someone is shitty to you to recognize that they’re probably coming from a place of pain, so we go through a cycle of negativity being shitty to each other around and around. But then if somebody can respond to…

I think this is separate from that because Sarah has power in this situation. So this troll was just harassing a celebrity who in this instance has power. Instead of her reporting this or responding with angry she looked into it from her position. I’d say the lesson would be if you can you should try, but not everyone…

He’s said he wasn’t up for running in 2016 because the family was recovering from the May 2015 death (cancer) of his son Beau, who was a prominent politician and former state AG in Delaware. I think that’s also what he’s referencing when he talks about whether the family is ready. I’d imagine it would have been hard…

Sanders will be pushing eighty by 2020. At this point I’m all for a mandatory retirement age from politics.

Not to mention if he had just run in 2016, none of us would be in this mess.

Agreed. I only wish that I had the sharpness and acuity of my 87 year-old dad. He blows me away with some insight, fact, or historical context every time we speak. And historical context is no small thing.

Yep. I want somebody different. If Sanders run his punk ass better run as an Independent. Don’t be piggy backing and using the Democrats when you see fit.

wait is hating biden now a thing? I loved biden.

I like Joe just fine, but the window for his opportunity closed over a year ago. It’s time to quietly retire and cede the floor to the people who—unlike you—will have to live a very long time under the choices they will make.

Well, I’d take Biden over Sanders in a primary— that’s for sure. But I’d rather have someone new run— like Harris, Gillibrand, etc. And if Sanders won the primary, I’d vote for him over Trump in a heartbeat.

She is a very capable actress...when she tones things down. Think of her in King’s Speech mode (vs. Tim Burton). She be great—it will be refreshing to see her truly act again!

I truly thought this was an advertisement, not a real post. It feels like an advertisement.

Liam over Harry?!

This sounds dumb, but my husband got me a 9 foot charging cord for my iPad. At the time (a few years ago) I didn’t know such things existed. He’d noticed me sitting awkwardly near my charger and surprised me with it. It was so thoughtful and solved a frustration I didn’t realize I was having.

oh yeah, that is DEFINITELY the ONLY reason I left him. It wasn’t because I work a full time job, a part time job, and go to school while he worked 15 hours a week and spent the rest of the time playing video games. And it is definitely not because he lied to me repeatedly about dumb stuff. Nor was it because I bought…

I don’t know how pissed I can get at this whole incident . I mean people say stupid things they maybe drunk or the joke just bombs . Plus the whole Ching Chong Chinaman thing he did was pretty lame . I get it we all get to dump that painful shit that was said to us but I am not into crucifying somebody for something…

It’s funny how all the fundamentalists always go after women, why can’t we get a group that goes after men?
