MSNBC has lost the plot completely. Lawrence O’Donnell, Rachel Maddow, and Chris Hayes are the only programs left of what was a promising station. Now, it seems they want to shove more Idiot Joe and Hypocrit and Useless Mika down our throats.

GOOD TV IS YELLING TV!
It’s incredibly frustrating, isn’t it? I remember a female comedy writer telling a similar, though less egregious, story — her agent kept being told by shows that were still hiring writers that they wouldn’t even consider her because they “already had their female writer.” This was their idea of diversity — we will…
Would read the novel or watch the movie.
It’s rapidly turning into my favorite comedy/news show, now that I have started watching again. I adore Mike Yard. He’s incredibly funny, but watching him fight with Al Sharpton over Obama’s legacy was AMAZING.
I actually like the Noah version of TDS. I didn’t think I would — those repulsive tweets turned me off. And…
Well, the recipient lived; that’s a pretty important level of success right there.
‘Nobody needs a uterus to live, OK?’ Green says. ‘Nobody needs a hand or a face to live, in fairness. It’s a quality-of-life issue.
Finally we can give Republican men the ability to carry out their dreams of carrying all the fetuses to term. I can’t wait! I want this to be a requirement for every man who is anti-abortion.
Agreed! I wanted to like the show — I loved Wilmore on TDS and loved his book — but I found it a real slog at first. Unfocused and frequently tedious, and I HATED the Keep it 100 bit, both the generally asinine questions and Wilmore’s tendency to make the determination based on whether he liked the answer rather than…
You mean in terms of sticking uteri in men? I had the same thought.
The Nightly Show has become EXCELLENT. I tried it when it first started and was deeply disappointed. The panel dragged everything down. I gave up and I think only came back because of his Bernie interview. But he has fixed it, and the supporting cast around him is terrific. The bits they are doing for Black History…
Ugh, I know what it’s like for a Republican family to not get it. It’s not like they deny there is a wage gap, but their response is always, “I think it’s getting better.” And because it’s “getting better” they think that means we don’t need to take anymore action. The only way it will get better is if people take…
Damn straight. It’s exquisitely on-point of her to bring up the plight of working full-time mothers and how they can’t support their families, and expand the conversation away from Hollywood. As long as it looks like she’s being punished by being in this for a penny, she decided to get in for a pound. I mean, even…
I want them all to start a production company, and employ all the women who’ve lost out on jobs after speaking out. Arquette, Mo’Nique, and all the others we don’t know about because they aren’t Oscar winners.
What does LGBT inclusion mean to you, softcore porn? Of course it’s not going to break the “rules”. In fact, any queer romance will probably be more chaste than hetero ones.
There’s a comment upthread (copied from a crazy facebook rant) where a woman basically says “my only purpose in life is to raise my children so that I can walk them [girls] down the aisle and they can start families of their own.”
It has been a dogwhistle for abortion for a very long time. They have been inextricably linked since the late 70s. Granted, it has only recently become mainstream, but "women's lib" (as it was still called as late as the 80s) was always seen by fundies as being about abortion, promiscuity and usurping men's power.…
Many of them? No. If you’re the sort of person who believes traditional gender roles are divinely ordained, then any notions of equality are an affront to God, since God placed men in authority over women. I have a friend who was told by her family’s pastor as a child that her dream of becoming a doctor was coming…
Yeah instead it sent Bronn. And Bronn doesn’t know how to buy sandwiches. :(
I don't want kids, and I don't think I would want them under any circumstances. However, I also think that hearing women talk about their experiences during childbirth cemented what was already a tendency not to want children while I was young. Almost every woman I knew had some story about medical staff behaving in…
