Can she come and interview some of our politicians in the US? She takes zero shit. That was a delight to watch. 

My fave was:

Australian women are great at shutting bullshit down. There is a great National distaste for disingenuous codswallop, and I adore that this was on the ABC, which is the National Broadcaster. 

I’ve often wondered if you have ever paused to reflect on why you sometimes have such a reflex to get so personal and frankly, bitchy, when women take you on? Have you ever stopped and wondered about that?

I said this in another comment, but I’ll say it here again because I’m gray on Splinter:

Cut to the Civility Brigade clutching their pearls. Someone fetch my smelling salts and my fainting couch, for that I am getting the vapors!

We’ve had several across Canada, today. I went to the one in Toronto.

We had a small march in Willmar, Minnesota...100 west of Minneapolis. Committing to calling DHS, registering voters.

People are upset that the U.S. is on the list ahead of other countries where it is obviously dangerous for women, but remember that health is one of the metrics used, as well as sexual violence and discrimination. We are going backwards in women health, especially for pregnant women who are not rich. Add that to the…

It sounds utterly and embarrassingly cheesy but I actually teared up at these photos & descriptions and maybe it’s partially because I’m German. There’s the obstreperous, anti-authoritarian, strong-willed moral America we truly love.

Same here. Swastikas are part of my tribe’s symbolic and material culture and for many other world cultures too.

They look so happy!

You’re confusing borderline personality disorder (what Pete has) with bipolar disorder. BPD has nothing to do with mania and depression.

Fuck you and your concern trolling. And fuck your likely-willful conflation of borderline and bipolar symptoms too.

Yeah that’s part of the reason why I think this relationship maybe makes sense, even if they are completely gross in nearly every way. They’ve both been personally impacted by major public tragedies. That does tend to bring people together. 

Can we stop giving the Nazis credit for symbols they stole?

He’s been through some shit. She’s been through some shit. Really happy to see them bringing each other joy.

Honestly, with all the shit going on and everything she’s been through in the last year, Ariana’s earned an adorable big sober dick. I hope those two baby goofballs make it.

I am 5'0" and went to a Broadway show a few months ago... and sat behind a high-school age girl who kept swaying from side to side in her seat like a fucking metronome. So I asked her at intermission if she could sit still, and she did, but I still felt bad.

My fear of being crushed is what keeps me from going to general admission shows these days.  I’m also extremely claustrophobic, and now that I’m sober, I don’t have a liquid crutch, so I have to really like the band to see the show.
