I’m reading an LBJ biography and honestly it seems to me that back in the 50s and 60s the midwestern and east coast states’ people were better at recoiling at openly racist people. They do not even do that anymore apparently! The way that Ohio, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania gave that disgusting anus the vote is…

Pretty much. I just got back from Mysore India, which still has a Maharajah. There is a HUGE palace there that is basically just a tourist attraction and the King lives somewhere else most of the time. He has no governing powers, it’s title only.

Don’t tell me what to fucking do.

The last note is hard to hit? The range of the song is only a single octave.

No one can hit that high note?

Nick.

And, at school, was voted Most Likely To Be Banksy.

I read all her quotes in Tahani’s cadence, and I am not sorry. I love that show so hard.

No, but her sister has eight Oscars and six Emmy Awards, all before the age of 25.

I keep getting similar comments on these posts about the list, and I’ve concluded it’s just another side of the “false rape allegations are worse than rape” argument.

Yeah, “It didn’t cause me to literally curl up into a ball and die” is a shitty bar for her to set. Wrong behavior is wrong, not (just) because it can potentially derail someone’s career.

Briefly, first wave is suffragettes, second wave is Gloria Steinem et al during the 70s, and third-wave is Jezebel.

Whose life was derailed by a murky and anonymous accusation? I know I probably shouldn’t respond to your ass but I really wanna know.
