Fascinated that Gawker found the Ghostbusters trailer to be amazing, while are indifferent to this one. This looks fantastic and I’m honestly more excited for this than I was for The Force Awakens.

But that’s the thing - she’s not TRYING to be a Reporter. She IS a Reporter.

This is amazing. And her parents clearly knew she was destined for this career path when they named her Hilde.

This is incredible!! Fuck yes, little girl, scoop all those professional reporters. Collect your Pulitzer in 10 years and laugh in their faces.

In the mid 80s a college professor told me a (possibly apocryphal) story about a male student who wrote an essay arguing that women were inherently less rigorous writers- using George Eliot’s work as an example of the epitome of said rigorous male writing that no woman could match.

You’re the only one that has actually been reporting on this stuff which is shocking. though I also feel like if we don’t have a discussion about this now, then this will be forgotten in a day and it will happen again. We also should not forget about the others before this either. I am still disappointed in this…

So true. Where are the articles about how Hillary, the first woman with a real shot of becoming POTUS, winning state after state? That is fucking amazing.

Very early in this election season I posted a comment on a different site pointing out that Sanders had put a Senate hold on a nominee for FDA head but that he was the second Senator to do it (not the first one). I was engulfed in a wave of Bernouts telling me how I was just the worst person. For pointing out a…

Excuse me. Hillary Clinton, upon being elected president, would become the defacto head of the Democratic Party and as such, she damn well better have “coalition loyalty from (the congressional) democrats” — it is not something that she is or should be expected to “buy”. Also, her “agenda” comes and will come and…

It’s true. I’m so tempted to refute bullshit Sanders memes I see posted on Facebook (the media is not lying 200+ delegates is not close, not at all) but I don’t want to get into a multi-day flame war with my friends. Instead, I went and voted (she won my state) and when the time comes I’ll probably volunteer for her…

Hillary = George Wallace. Ok, James. Ok.

Yeah. I know. I mean, I see the numbers, but Jesus Christ, this entire thing is ... well hell .... it is really fucking stupid. How can anyone not understand that bills will need to be made into laws and will need progressive votes?

I read an interesting political science study recently that one of the reasons the US may have better than average female participation in elected office (and let’s all pause to feel some sads that our piss poor 20% congressional seats is better than average) may be precisely because we have large female focused super…

Inspired me to donate as well...

God damn. Sanders is quickly losing any goodwill he ever had with me. What a fucking asshole. Private citizens raising money for you is okay because they are poor people? Clooney is raising money for down ballot candidates. Something Bernie hasn’t bothered to worry about because Bernie only cares about Bernie.

You do realize that this money is for down the ballot. She’s raising for the other candidates down ballot. How much has Bernie raised down ballot?

So she should not fund raise? Lets go back to the principled Liberal days, it went so well.

Meh. I get his point about campaign finance, but I find the fact that Sanders has ZERO women in the top ten highest paid positions on his campaign far more obscene.
