Aw, no need to be mean to the old lady!

+1 clean roll of toilet paper for you

Your great aunt is a brilliant poet!

I remember traveling in Europe where some countries still charged for use of toilets at train stations and such. :(

What you are implying here is bad. First you are implying that women and minorities don’t vote because it is too hard (harder than for white men, I guess).

Of course, there are many factors at play. But we need people to go to the polls and vote, and our system makes it pretty damn hard especially for women of color.

Srsly, you become a pundit AFTER you’ve served, not the other way around!

Americans should also make it easier to vote so we can vote for more women and more people of color for state legislatures and Congress.

I think she also remains a bit oblivious to how people who are not white and wealthy live. I don’t despise her as much as some here do, but I also see how she’s narrowly focused on a certain demographic even when she means well.

Gizmodo’s Kate Knibbs did move to Canada when Bush was elected. She wrote a primer on how to do so, and it’s not easy!

It ain’t cheap to move to another country. You also need to get a visa and/or go through naturalization, both of which require certain skillsets that not all people have access to.

The problem is not that Lena Dunham is the worst (she isn’t), but that she seems to have a blind spot for race like many white Americans (myself included). I think she is getting better, as she has acknowledged that backlash from Girls lacking a diverse cast has led to learning more about intersectional feminism. That…

TY for this!

Thank you for doing what you do day in and day out despite the bs you have to face just to get work done.

Yeah, but they didn’t run as the VP. They first became President because the POTUS died or, in Nixon’s case, after going through his “wilderness years.” I’m talking about the impact of whether being remembered as the VPOTUS helps you win in your own campaign. Historically it’s not very helpful unless you first become…

They didn’t run before they became president did they?

Farewell sweet Prince...

Prince is dead. Long live Prince. :(

My bad. I meant to say “running and winning” as VPOTUS runs don’t do so well.

Oops, I mean to say the last VPOTUS running and winning for the highest office was Bush ‘41.
