I love this plan because of its juvenile nature: we’re not running the ad. We’re running an ad based on the ad you told us to stop running. Those are two different things.

Good grief, not only is this ad a series of statements made BY the President but you can’t even say they are taken out of context. The context is the same for all of them. Coronavirus response.

“we formally demand that your station refuse to continue airing it to meet your responsibilities not to broadcast false information,”

Citizens United cutting both ways on these bastards.

This is what drives me fucking insane as a trans woman. Because on the one side, you have a ton of cis people saying things that are just blatantly incorrect because they don’t understand just how much HRT changes your body, especially if you start young. To give you an idea, I started at 19 and the movement of my…

any chance Fiona could also vomit on GOP Senate. Or, preferably, a Fiona shit spray for the whole goddamned Senate.

Fiona is the worst kind of cat so this makes sense.

I disagree. It's gonna be a scarlet letter on his administration forever and given Trump's narcissism he's gonna hate it. It will also be a historical fact that Democrats held a corrupt President accountable for his actions and Republicans blatantly acquitted him for their own political benefit. As I write that I'm…

It’s on the record, it’s in the history, he and the GOP will be forever tainted with this. His cult is temporary. This hearing, whether it ends in impeachment or not, will be forever.

this shoe is not ok Maria

Big toes need their own shoes.

Bigotry against gay people would be wrong even if sexual orientations were freely chosen.

This is the correct take. I frequently see people holding her up as a hero, apparently just because she’s trans? Trans people are just as capable of being dumb and shitty as anybody else, folks.

Great post, and you're not the only one still enjoying this show; there are dozens of us.

Right, she’s always had to be convinced to show mercy to her enemies. And now all the people who were able to do the convincing are gone.

I also like that it challenges us to wonder whether Cersei was the lesser of two evils. She was a monster too, of course, but don’t her cruelties look downright strategic in hindsight now? It’s much more complicated than CERSEI BAD, DANY GOOD. CERSEI PATRIARCHY, DANY FEMINISM. CERSEI MEAN, DANY NICE.

The high school I work at provides us with shades for the doors to our classrooms, but they didn’t provide us with anything else to secure the classrooms. We did one “training” to practice barricading our classrooms, but teachers who weren’t able to effectively barricade their rooms were just told to do better but…

I teach high school as well. This year our district safety guru told us with a straight face that because you are often locked in your classroom for 7+ hours during serious crises that you should keep food and a bucket available for students to use. Also what’s our plan if we have students on oxygen or with diabetes…

I feel the exact same way. 

Thank you for the extremely hard work you do every day. I’m married to a teacher and I work as an IT person in schools. I literally do not know how teachers put up with as much as they do for as long as they do. You have so much going against you. I’ve had to sit through Coop town voting meetings where half the town…
