His problem was not being “too extravagant”, it’s hanging around with a rapist and possibly being a rapist himself. “Extravagance” is part of the job description for a royal.

Right?! His whole smug “c’mon ladies, it could be so much worse, quitcher whining” is LITERALLY THE WHOLE GODDAMN PROBLEM, CHAD.*

The problem here isn’t that sexual assault exists in a taxi service like Uber (though, obviously that *is* a problem), the problem is that they do a terrible job of responding to events of sexual violence on their platform. They have the tools to make Uber much safer than a traditional taxi service (GPS tracking;…

Oh, man, I was FUMING at the NPR story about this last night. I get the scale thing, and they’re not wrong about the fact that at those sheer numbers, you’re gonna have bad shit happen. But, look, we’re not asking Uber to fix humanity and solve the problem of sexual assault in society, we’re asking Uber to appropriatel…

How many zeros after the decimal before safety feels guaranteed—in an Uber and in the world at large?

And they should all be using their money to help other politicians than funding their own pointless campaigns. And yet! Here! We are!

Sometimes they’re the worst offenders because they’ve been raised to believe that growing up in liberal households and liking some Kendrick Lamar and Solange songs mean that they don’t have to unlearn the racism that all of us are bombarded with from day one.

Fair, they do all look alike.

OK, Bloomber.

White Boomers and silent generation people will never fully get out of the habit of using this language. It’s crazy. If you push them, they will still tell you they don’t see color. They will never develop anything resembling a reasonable comfort level talking about race. It’s a blind spot all three of the most…

Straight female here but I used to work at a talent agency that repped Kate Moenning and I have never been so attracted to a woman in my life. She used to stand near my desk and read copy and my boss thought it was hilarious because I acted like a dumb schoolgirl any time she talked to me. It’s gotta be the power of…

I wish we’d already get to a point where gay celebrities didn’t feel the need to pretend to be otherwise in order for their careers to thrive. Li’l Nas X seems to be doing all right.

“Why can’t they just wait until the people have a chance to speak with their ballot?” 

It’s on the record, it’s in the history, he and the GOP will be forever tainted with this. His cult is temporary. This hearing, whether it ends in impeachment or not, will be forever.

This take sucks. All it does is play into Republican hands: “See, even the liberals expect this from us”. It didn’t look like Nixon was going to be convicted until public support demanded it, and then he bailed. Letting Republicans off the hook before we even put them on it is defeatism.

Having myself worked for five years in higher education, it cannot be stressed enough that faculty of García Peña’s calibur are indispensable, especially when considering similarly identified students on campus who often struggle to find the support they need to succeed.

Lorgia’s the professor who had the racist note penned to her door a month ago. Not joking, she’s the same professor.

That’s what he uses on himself to sleep at night while fending off lawsuits.

Haven’t we already seen this movie? With all these people?

The entire movie is based on a guy who lied about most of the things he'd done so platform shoes do fit in with this narrative.
