The woman grew up with him as a father figure.

It’s disgusting he got away with grooming her and made Mia look like the jealous scorned wife and not a horrified mother that found naked photos of her teen taken by her father.

Samesies.

This is the thing that infuriates me about FOX is their insistence she is simultaneously a befuddled, incontinent geriatric and a criminal mastermind that has been breaking laws and fixing elections since her husband was in office.

Future Madame President is on a roll today! I’m particularly enjoying how the news is having to breathlessly explain what the alt-right is, exposing that dirty underbelly of the internet most of us have been reading about in some form or another for years. I look forward to Trump bringing on Roosh or Judgy Bitch next…

Sending all the good thoughts to the women of Ireland. I hope that women continue to stand up and say that they had an abortion, and it was the right choice for them. It is so hard, but it humanizes the issue.

Raise your hand if you think Cruise made those two guys in front take a knee because they were significantly taller than him?

There’s a word for that special sub-species of clown: assclown.

Nods. Sips from double vodka tonic. (Hey, I’m getting ready for a 15 hour flight to Dubai!)

Congrats to Danny Trejo. 48 years sober, an amazing accomplishment.

I’m so, so hopeful we can do this, and it was a big talking point when the #marref was happening / had passed. A lot of “well abortion is next”. I don’t think it’ll be as easy, and it’s not like “Catholic Ireland embraces the gays” was an easy battle. We won on marriage equality on the stories of hundreds of queer…

Yes, and not just a teenager. If you do manage to travel (which might involve taking time off work as it’s not a trip you can do in a day) and have the abortion, you are left to your own devices thereafter. No follow-up care, if you need it. So you have the fear of getting pregnant, which can happen to anyone even if…

I mean, it is technically a miscarriage. It’s not for nothing that the medical term for a miscarriage is a spontaneous abortion. I get why it would be sensitive for people who have had miscarriages and are grieving for wanted pregnancies, but what is happening physically isn’t really different.

In my liberal feminist bubble in Ireland, it’s been overwhelmingly supportive anger on behalf of these women. Outside of my bubble, there are people saying the usual shit, mostly along the lines of it not being brave to murder a helpless baby etc etc. But I think overall it’s been more supportive than not. Probably…

I’m curious to see the reaction to this, given the outrage among Jez commenters when a woman in America live-tweeted her abortion.

As someone who, for the past eight years, has worked closely with dozens of young Irish women making their way in the world of International teaching, I can tell you something I believe to be quite accurate: They do not fuck around. They are tough, stubborn, kind hearted, and part of a new generation of Irish, the…

These women are so brave.

That’s only if Canada manages to get their wall up before the mass exodus in November.

I usually hate Twitter, but then something like this happens, and I sort of get it. Twitter is really the perfect medium for this kind of statement. Strength and power, women of Ireland.

They have it relatively easy—soon we’ll have to climb a wall into México.
