My family was working poor, and we were even on food stamps for several months at one point, despite two parents working allegedly good full-time jobs.

Unfriendly reminder that under international definitions, forced sterilization (e.g., involuntary hysterectomy) is one of several defining characteristics of genocide.  Considering this was the policy against indigenous women in the US throughout the past century, it should surprise exactly no one.  ABOLISH ICE.

By any measure this is some draconian nazi shit.

The fact that more people aren’t freaking the fuck out makes me feel like I’m taking crazy pills. My gut tells me our democracy* won’t survive another Trump term, either due to the slide into full-on fascist dictatorship or the fact that incompetent mashed potato-brained narcissist is going to get us all killed.…

But I’m also just bothered by an article discussing Naoko Takeuchi’s signature style featuring art not drawn by Naoko.

I always found that “Nu-Metal” is a lot like “pornography”... in the sense that you can’t really define it, but you “know it when you see it”.

casting a short,curvy, dark woman as Princess Diana would’ve been an interesting choice.

Fair point, tall blonde and slim is clearly not a brave new standard for Hollywood. I will say, though, that 6'3" is so tall for a woman that I’m sure women that height get treated unkindly, are subjected to stares and comments virtually everywhere they go, and many men who are under 6'3" (the vast majority) wouldn’t…

Everything about the perverse puritanical stranglehold this country is locked in is sad.

The dreamy quality of…

It gets weirder. It’s not the first time she’s “disappeared”.

If you are settling down to have kids right now?

Blasphemy is a victimless crime.

As a child of the ‘90's of course she must know what a ghostwriter is! (JK she’s a vapid idiot ergo she’s never watched PBS, and also that’s not what a ghostwriter actually is but I f-ing loved that show, it's blasphemy that they're trying to reboot it)

Let me know when Michelle sells her Pink Ladies jacket.

At any normal party attended by normal people, you’ll have to explain this costume to everyone and the best reaction you get will still be “Oh... OK.”

Yeah, honestly I’m only 5'9", and I remember getting weather comments like this a lot. (I dunno if I just went to school with a bunch of shorties or what but ???)

I was sitting at my desk reading a blog.  2 minutes ago. 

uh, swift richer, still? she started out far, far richer than all of us. ‘she hit a home run’ by starting on third base. not a symbol of the common woman making good.
