I didn't know that Abigail Fisher had changed her name.

Plenty of white folks speak Spanish better than I do. George Takei recently posted a video where he spoke near-flawless Spanish, for ten minutes. This lady isn’t discriminated against. She’s just lazy.

always was, and still is, Best American Idol.

Coworker of the cosplayer; I saw the whole thing go down. So perhaps I can clarify a few things I’ve seen brought up in other comments:

She looks really sharp in that first picture. I’m surprised that her boss had a problem with that.

You know, when I worked somewhere that didn’t allow facial hair per dress regulations, but had no regulations about hair length, I thought I was a rebel by growing my hair out as long as I could while keeping my beard just at the 5 o’clock shadow level all the time. I think June’s got me beat.

Wanting to share that I have been a Bernie supporter, but I am so very proud to be voting for, and supporting Hillary Clinton. I did tear up at the end of the roll call, because I was proud that Sanders did the right thing and pledged his support to Clinton.

I wanted to see Bernie win; I did not want to see his supporters boo and hiss their way through the convention and take away from what is without a doubt a historic moment. You guys, your issues are my issues - or are they? Because from where I’m standing Bernie’s done a great job of pushing those issues and now…

I am now in love with Stephanie Rawlings-Blake and an hour ago I did not know who she was.

Women and minorities have been dutifully pulling the lever for white men for decades (when they were allowed to at all) and you never heard from them even a fraction of the hysterics that Sanders supporters have been displaying during the DNC because they didn’t get their #1 choice.

To the diehard Bernie people crying in these comments and, according to my TV screen, literally crying at the convention:

Congratulations. I’ve been a big Hillary detractor but when glorious Michelle pointed out that we (I’m in my 20s) pointed out that we take for granted a woman could become president the history of it hit me

Omg guys, this roll call! So much love! As a resident of ohio, i teared up when Obergefell spoke on behalf of the OH delegation.

I’m 66 years old. I became a feminist when I was 5, and my older sister was told she could “join” a model airplane club my father belonged to. She could pay dues, but not attend meetings or meet because she was a girl.(My father promptly “unjoined” that club!) I’ve been waiting 61 years for today.

I’m with her.

in some gaudily expensive hotel suite somewhere, Melania sat on a plush couch—her designer dress beginning to wrinkle, Donald’s musty breath breathing down her neck—and she felt the chill. She felt it.

SHADE COURT IS BACK AND I AM LOW KEY CRYSQUEALING IN PUBILC.

Kara you’re always there for us when we need you most.
