When you wonder how the GOP can wrap their tiny mutant brains around the obvious dichotomy of their favorite “please think of the children” defense and these kinds of policies ... one can only come to the conclusion that they - and their supporters - simply don’t view trans people as human.

“It is jarring to think that someone who grew up as a foster care and was also a victim of child abuse would be anywhere near child abuse allegations”

Wait....Diane Warren is right! And this is more than sampling...A piece with 24 writers makes no sense from any musical composition angle, so why is she being blasted? I think too many Beyonce fans are immature and need to grow up! And frankly, I’ve felt for a while that Beyonce is a bit overrated. There!

Celebrity stans are the worst and I don’t understand why any person capes so hard for celebs. Beyoncé has a history of doing questionable things when it comes to songwriting credits- and yes, sampled music should absolutely be credited BUT having listened to Renaissance and actually listened to the lyrics…..whew,…

This is the same country that sentenced Jack Ruby to death, unfortunately...

Uhh, if it’s more or less confirmed he did it; let her the fuck go. She did your job assholes.

You have to keep the right pills of the right dosage in the pill bottle they came in. Cops absolutely check this every time they find pills in a bottle. (a bag and it’s even worse) It’s pretty much illegal/appear in court ticketable to carry the pills in anything else pretty much everywhere, not just Florida. Though I…

Also of note is that he had -31- loose pills. As far as I know, a prescription is only for -30-. Sure, that one pill could be from the previous month’s prescription, but I don’t know many doctors outside of a pill mill that are even willing to prescribe for a full month at daily usage unless you’ve just had surgery.

The fact that they arrested him means that they were not in the prescription bottle for those pills. Can’t take ‘em out and put them in a bag or something. Not sure about the legality but given the result of this...

But... she’s not white.
Maybe Trump supporters get a special membership?

“I know we are all human. But we belong to a profession that does not tolerate, practice, condone, facilitate, or collaborate with any form of discrimination. This profession requires our employees to treat everyone with respect and be culturally aware and competent,”

This is the face of white supremacy?

I bet if a white girl walked into that house they wouldn’t have been so cavalier about a burning house.

If any of your actions contributed to his death?

Not to under cut the tradgedy of the story, but why does the title say tear gas if a flash bang is likely the cause?

*sigh* these arguments are becoming so tiresome. As a black woman in a red state, Roe v Wade being overturned is a real threat with real, life long and generational consequences for all. Any protest that brings attention to abortion rights and body autonomy are important. Fuck these purity tests and posts. Shit is…

Margaret Atwood sourced Handmaid’s Tale from things happening around the world at the time she was writing in the early 1980's. There was no internet then so she cut articles out of newspapers or magazines and put them in a box. Authoritarian governments, religious extremism, women’s rights, fertility and the issues…

It’s symbolism that a lot of people instantly understand. Nobody lives up to the progressive purity test. You’re just being assholes who care more about optics than enacting change. Christ, I WISH we could afford to turn away allies so readily.

This article makes absolutely zero sense. The central conceit is that white people should stop identifying with the Handmaid’s Tale or using it as a symbol for the pro-choice movement because some black people don’t like the show, a show that attempts to right a wrong from the book by including people of color in the…

Who are these “voting academy” members? How are they selected? Are they even members of the community? Are they an inclusive group. BET needs to be transparent on this issue and not just say “wasn’t us.” BET needs to publish the list of members and how they are invited to be members of the voting academy.
