On your last sentence, I want to add, “ON EVERYTHING! FOREVER! NOT ONE WORD OUT OF YOU!”

Gets to be a martyr, gets out of jail, and keeps her job. Why wouldn’t she be lapping it up? She has lost nothing and gained a national platform for her bullshit

My conferences are never that fun. They would be much improved by tripping balls and rolling around in the grass...or gravel since I am in AZ

Exactly! It may not prevent every assault, rape, etc. but I bet it can prevent some, especially since knowledge that such a system exists might deter some assailants. The idea that because it can’t prevent every incident (and let’s get serious, in this culture what could?) it is a bad idea boils my blood. Should we…

It is great that his family will get something (although, like others, I feel the source matters), but what about all of the other less highly publicized victims of police violence since forever? Where is their compensation? And once the media spotlight moves on (as it always does) what changes will be made to stop…

Because of course JK is a male name? Because initials are gendered? Oh wait....they mean that writers are male and this tricksy woman slipped in. Because J K could never stand for Josephine Katherine?

My question is does he regret peeing in the cup or getting videoed while peeing in a cup? And did the homeowner toss the cup when it was revealed?

Seriously! At least they are trying to address problems that occur at shows, of which there are legion. Is it perfect? Of course not. It is a first stab at addressing a problem no one else is addressing. They should be applauded for trying something.

Why, why, why do they do that?

I cry every time I read the transcript of his speech that is linked in that link. Seriously, every damn time.

Want to cry even harder? Read about his Generation Indigenous Initiative: https://m.whitehouse.gov/nativeamerican…

I am thinking it means, “Would come up with a better excuse than, ‘vaccines made me do it’”

Is it time for me to bust out my photo collection of President Obama with Native youth (and I never thought I would see a president with Native youth in my lifetime)? Yes? OK:

Lots of the men and women in my family serve and I think this is fucking awesome. I have some high school cousins prepping for the Marines because they want to be the first women to make it through infantry training. Women in the service need the opportunity to advance and combat is the best way to do that.

This is a tale of a deservedly fucked up tattoo told to me by the artist who gave me my last one:

Maybe something like “Ring my bell. It says $Other gender name. I keep meaning to get it changed”? Or the way it came up with the last trans person I became friends with. They introduced themselves with a man’s name because I met them at work, but when we FB friended they gave me a woman’s name and then I knknew.

The whole private email server was just a stupid move on her part since she knew she was going to run for President and knows the Republicans are looking for scandal. Bad fucking judgement is definitely a legit accusation on this one.

I would love to see a movie with a trans character where their identity just *was* and it was not introduced as something for cis people to react to. I guess Orphan Black managed it with the trans clone, but that is the only instance I can think of

And yes I am talking to myself, but I wanted to link to the Native documentaries: http://indiancountrytodaymedianetwork.com/2015/04/10/10-…

I just came to say that. The Tempest also has a bit of the writing while high vibe
