Jezebel thinks Republicans shouldn’t portray older, powerful Democratic women as frail
Why bother when portraying them as bloodthirsty and corrupt and mocking their very existence is so much more effective for your demographic?
Biden? BIDEN? And other thoughts on 2020 and misogyny
I cruised over to Real Clear Politics, as one does, and was amazed to discover that old fart Joe Biden is still way, way ahead in 2020 polling. Other old fart Bernie Sanders is second. Kamala Harris is third.
Bernie should take up whittling
Or knitting. Or kayaking. Or anything at all that keeps him from running for president. Because his divisive, egotistical bullshit will mean 4 more years of Trump.
Barry Petchesky Mea Culpa
So apparently a rival sport blog has posted some very vile old posts from this Deadspin writer. I’m reminded of the whole Pinkham drama (for Groupthink old timers) but this time the phone call is not coming from inside the house.
Chelsea Manning: some good arguments here
I was thinking and reading about this last night and came across the fact that Daniel Ellsberg, who released the Pentagon Papers, was prosecuted under the same law that Manning was, but the charges were dismissed. It isn’t anything new for whistleblowers to operate outside the law, and the face heavy consequences.
Gross
Full disclosure, I am a Seahawks fan (they totally sucked today, sad face) but this is gross

Pity Party: Didn't get invited to the wedding edition
Which is fine. FINE. I’ve only known the bride for 30 years.
Should I get this Sephora 500 point thing - inane UPDATED
I will use everything except “Foundation Primer - Radiance Bronze” which will mostly likely be too dark for me. I’m not really a “bronzing” sort of person. I don’t understand this product. Or do I wait for the next 500 point thing? This is stressful! Because apparently, when this is gone it will be gone (threatening)…
I have about had it with techies - an incoherent rant
Apparently it’s a thing now in S.V. for workers to forgo food in favor of a powder called soylent because the of, let’s face it, greed and self-importance. Someone actually called it soylent because that’s, I don’t know, funny? The appalling lack of diversity in that industry coupled with its rampant misogyny is of…
Family annihilator post on Gawker TW obvs
Some fucked up asshole in BC killed is wife, daughter and sister (don’t worry, they’re happy in heaven now) and confessed to it on Facebook because that’s how we do it now in late capitalism. I think Marx said so.
Plain wedding band sources?
So Mr. Rochester lost his wedding ring and we need to replace it. The last time I was ring shopping was a long damn time ago. I know we could take ourselves down to Zales and there's a lot of online options, but I'd rather give my money to an independent and there are so many recent/about to be brides around here I…
I'm too much of a wimp to watch "The Fall"
And dammit I really wanted to.
Cool Pope down with spanking
As long it is dignified. Tell me again how this guy represents something new?
Today in Smash Rage: Penn State (TW Rage)
Joe Paterno's restoration project got a huge victory today. Next step, and I have no doubt it will happen, that damn statue.
NFL Week 17
Bye Harbaugh. Don't let the door hitya.
The case of the "Food Babe" and misogyny among "skeptics" (TW misogyny)
Like many of you, I'm sure, I follow Tysonism on Facebook. But I've begun to notice (and the fact that I've just noticed it doesn't mean it's new) that there is a faction, or strain among the larger community, the community of for lack of a better term skeptics, of misogyny. I believe Tysonism consists of several…
Of Course
Citing insufficient evidence, piece of shit Ray McDonald will not be charged with domestic violence despite visible injuries to his pregnant fiancee.
The catcalling video - Facebook rage
"I haven't watched the video — the conversation about the decisions made in creating it got so heated so fast, I'm unsure how to give it a fair viewing."
