True! And I’m not judging anyone else’s decision. Upthread, I was responding more to dispute the idea that you can’t live a full life with a mental disability.

But isn’t it a sad commentary on our society that we have to say he didn’t physically assault anyone, just sexually harassed them. THIS IS STILL WRONG JESUS CHRIST!

I love that quote!

Amen!

Doesn’t THAT just break your heart?

I have always had a low-grade dislike of Casey Affleck that has blossomed into a deep anger. I so agree with Constance Wu, he demonstrates how being a white man who assaults women won’t hurt your career.

I posted this above but one of my favorites Dan Savage has a great bit about “we’re not all like that Christians” who complain when LGBTQ people make comments about Christians hating them. He says stop telling us you’re not like that and start telling the other Christians.

My cousin was born healthy and when he was 15 got into an accident that left him with the mental capabilities of a 8 year old. You never know what will happen.

So only one POC for Best actress and actor. Guess they feel like they’ve checked that box. Also, Fences was a fine film but there were other actors who I think deserved that nom more IMO.

I feel like “have YOU ever been to a whales march” is the child of “white, black or purple, we are all people”

I would also say that generally the white women who didn’t vote are also responsible for this mess. WOC with three jobs and two kids made time for this, you couldn’t stop watching Girls long enough to do this?

Posted this above but relevant here too. If Muslims are forced constantly separate themselves from every suicide bomber/terrorist and must prove to society that they are one of the “good ones” then you can be sure white women should have to claim this.

If Muslims are forced to claim every suicide bomber you can be sure white women should have to claim this.

My Aunty would slap me upside the head of I tried to go anywhere with her in a bee keeping outfit.

I’ve never understood the angry reaction white people (#notallwhitepeople) say when confronted with situations like this. Imagine if it happened in other situations.

“Tweets may be archived”. Imagine the theses that will be written off those in coming decades.

That is horrific.

I don’t understand all the hate (i mean I do because people suck but seriously folks). I want to make her a cup of tea and give her a hug. Such a tough young woman!

If you check the comment history, he’s for sure a troll. And I say he because, well I don’t think that’s much of a stretch.

Somehow this is the least surprising of all of the nomination reveals. When is Rick Perry not in over his head?
