Actually, it’s kind of the exact opposite--this shows how very difficult it is to convincingly fake an attack, and how easily the stories of people lying about being assaulted crumble under investigation. Nobody is sincerely equating “believe victims” with “don’t investigate crimes”; that’s a straw man used by rape…

Sometimes I wish we lived in a cartoon, so I could drop a fucking piano on her head.

I love it when people confidently lie.

“in 2016, Donald Trump privately instructed his personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, to lie to Congress about secret plans to build a Trump Tower in Moscow.”

I’m done with this fool.

Picture it: Sicily

Oh god, can you imagine if Obama even made a typo before his morning coffee? It would be absolute proof that he’s a Muslim born in Kenya and also that all black people are less intelligent and also probably he’s an illuminati lizard person.

Fuck Lena Dunham. She sees herself as the protagonist in every narrative. There are no other actual people in Lena Dunham’s universe, only supporting characters whose sole purpose is to further Lena Dunham’s growth and development (and then cheer for her).

The passage quoted is a dream sequence taken out of context. Murakami writes in a vaguely surrealist Japanese literary tradition, in line with the work of Kobo Abe, but with a kind of postmodern globalist twist (so sort of by way of Kafka) as well as psychoanalytic overtones (hence the dream sequences). His spare…

What goddessoftransitory said. It’s a passage from the main character’s dream. I can’t say much more without spoilers. But it’s Murakami, so sex in his novels isn’t strictly about sex. Just like his reoccurring well motif isn’t literally about wells. His sex scenes are rarely sexy because they aren’t meant to be.…

Can we not start with this? This isn’t about misogyny. This is about this one particular, twice-failed presidential candidate who needs to gracefully bow out. Running the same tired candidates is not the path to winning back the White House. We need new people with fresh perspectives who don’t (for better or worse)…

I say this with all due respect; Mrs. Clinton, go home.

I mean, part of the problem is the media, too. The Bushes have worked on charity projects with Bill, but not with Michelle’s charities. There’s zero evidence that they are friends. Michelle and W. don’t seem to be friends, but it’s a narrative the media latched on for some reason.

She is so brave. She is so brave. She is so brave.

When a person trades in hate and divisiveness they shouldn’t be surprised when someone comes at them with that same energy. Ann Coulter has been through this same spectacle and I think she had pies (or maybe shaving cream pies) whipped at her. Tammy wants to go on TV and talk shit about folks and then walk around town…

People can bitch about not “resorting to violence” but part of making the world a nicer place for marginalized people is shutting up racists and other assholes. Punching Richard Spencer in the face, tossing drinks at Tomi Lahren, these aren’t just things that give me a warm fuzzy, they’re laudable actions that…

This entire administration is lesson in the astonishing ability of the trust funded white man to fail his way to the top in this country.

I just spent 20 minutes typing out a very detailed reply, but then the page crashed, so I’ll just give you the TL;DR version from the woman herself:

The tortured genius is a pretty damaging and self-destructive concept. The reason a lot of famous men were abusive assholes isn’t because they were tortured but because they grew up in a society that taught them it was okay to act that way. And the reason that a lot of famous women self-destructed and committed…
