Systemic change doesn’t happen before personal change. People aren’t going to work toward societal change that they aren’t already personally invested in.

I think that societal change starts with enough people thinking about this that they raise awareness of it as an issue, and that educators and parents actually do something about it so we have generational shifts. If these books help, that is good. So what if they aren’t perfect? Don’t let “perfection be the enemy of…

I feel like there’s some missing the point in this blog.

Try to be constructive instead of shitting on people trying to do good but not knowing enough not to make mistakes. Hopefully, you will find people willing to listen and learn.

For fuck’s sake, Jez, I am not going to subscribe to your goddamn newsletter!!!

Great piece, Julianne.

It’s because his supporters suffer from the worst case of projection this country has ever seen. They project all positive qualities they want in a leader onto him, even when this belief is demonstrably false. They refuse to believe negative things about him even when they come out of his own mouth. They’ll look at…

By the way, it’s consistently worth remembering that Trump took out a full-page ad in the New York Post condemning the Central Park 5 and calling for the death penalty for children and then, when they were acquitted, doubled down and said they should be executed despite their innocence.

What I don’t get is how anyone could think Trump is the hill they want to make a stand on.

Their arguments are so feeble that, if they presented them in a Constitutional Law class, they’d be assigned remedial coursework. Hell, they wouldn’t even pass muster in freshman logic.

Between the hair and the orange, it’s amazing that anyone could perceive Chump as anything remotely resembling masculinity.

“And the fact that both Dem House and Senate leadership have indicated they will not increase the courts.”

My little sister and her wife JUST got married on their 10th anniversary in August. They had to cancel their big wedding, obviously, and just have a tiny ceremony with their roommates.

RELIGIOUS LIBERTY MEANS YOU CAN PRACTICE YOUR RELIGION UP UNTIL THE POINT WHEN IT INTERFERES WITH ANOTHER PERSON’S LIFE YOU FUCKING AMERICAN TALIBAN ASSHOLES!!!

This has nothing to do with religious liberty and everything to do with exalting one specific brand of Christianity over all other religions.

Playing down the virus that has killed 210,000+ Americans was a bad move politically before he had the virus.  Doing it after recovery would look even worse politically, when people would be expecting him to be more sympathetic. But this is Trump and I fully expect him to do exactly what you said.

As hilarious as it would be for him to die of covid, it would be even funnier if he died from his doctors pumping the heavy duty stuff into him to try to stop him from dying of covid. xD

Accessory got an accessory.

Yeah, I called in sick to the nonsense factory last night. Watched re-runs of “The West Wing” on Netflix. It was the one where Bartlett was amusingly pedantic, Leo was quietly exasperated, CJ was steely and acerbic, Sam was amusing and idealistic, Toby was on a slow burn for 45 minutes, and Josh and Donna danced…

Here’s the thing: Biden has been in a lot of debates before this one, including recent ones in the Democratic primaries, and his debates never devolved into a “shit show”. Trump has been in far fewer debates and almost all of them were nuts. So what’s the common denominator here? Let’s put our thinking caps on for a…
