What an idiot. Donald Trump didn’t want her to commit voter fraud. He wanted her to stand silently outside a polling place in a liberal-leaning area with a gun.

That’s utterly ridiculous. She’s Queen. She has people to do that for her.

THEY ARE NOT REOPENING THE INVESTIGATION! Stop with these misleading headlines and read Comey’s actual letter, a portion of which you posted here.

So when she wins, repubs will instantly call for an impeachment?

I think you are absolutely right. I don’t think this is cultural appropriation. But I still think that the similarities are interesting mostly because I have numerous highly educated, entitled acquaintances who cannot grasp the idea of cultural appropriation (“Why can’t my daughter dress up as an ‘Indian Princess’ if…

I thought the one with the girl who dreamed about her dead friend and woke up and the dead friend was laying next to her in bed screaming was the scariest one. That one freaked me the fuck out

YAYYYYYYYYY!!!! I submitted mine too late sadly and it got buried. Here it is if anyone would like to read it:

Ugh, this. She is literally appropriating the term “appropriation” and it’s making me stabby

IKR. I don’t even care about their racial or ethnic background - ballet is an art form. It’s a job; maybe a hobby or enthusiasm for some. But a _culture_? Really? Fuck a bunch of that overprivileged noise.

Here’s what I’ve learned about “appropiation”: it’s o.k. if you are good at it. If your art demonstrates a deep intellectual and emotional conection to a another culture (one which you were not born into); if you understand its history and respect other practitioners then you are not appropriating but contributing to…

DOI employee here. From my perspective, this sets a really scary precedent. I could be working in the field and have some militia asshole thinking I’m trying to “steal his land” point his rifle at me with no consequence because of this legal precedent.

I think it’s funny that people want to pretend that modeling is a high science of some kind. Yes, there are models that model better than others. Naomi Campbell over Kendall Jenner. Like, there’s also some pasta that I prefer over other pasta (angel hair over mezze penne, over farfalle) but it is all pasta and it is…

I’d say pretending ballet is a racial or cultural identity that could even be “appropriated” is also pretty embarrassing.

Commented similarly elsewhere before I saw this. Yes exactly. Appropriation?!? Give me a fucking break. I think I’ll get all pissed because Gabriel Byrne totally appropriated my profession with “In Treatment.”

Can you even appropriate something like “ballet culture?” It’s something a lot of little American and European girls are familiar with and is pretty entrenched in (white, middle class) imaginations. It’s a mainstream thing.

I mean... “literally SO offensive.” lol no. No, it wasn’t. She was doing what many, many models before her have done! But she has a target on her back because she’s a Jennerashian. I think it’s a bigger insult to modeling. Like, wtf are you even modeling?

I can’t in good conscience vote for Trump either, so I’ll be voting for my nana.

Yep. It’s about making white voters feel like they’re not racist for supporting Trump. Talking like this, to a rally full of white people, is 100% not about reaching out to the black community.

He isn’t trying to play to black voters. He is pretending to play to black voters so white voters that he has horrified with his open racism will give him a second chance - “oh look, maybe Donald isn’t a raging racist asshole after all, I guess I can vote for him without having a guilty conscience.”

I wouldn’t wish a dead dog on my worst enemy, and that includes Mike Pence. I’m glad his furbabybeagle had a long life and, unlike American women, was probably treated very respectfully by Pence.
