“We’re the party of Lincoln! You remember him! He fought a whole big war to free the slaves! So, basically, ignore the last 50 years of actual policy and remember the guy from 150 years ago. Clearly, we care more about civil rights than those dirty Democrats.”

I love that this is the Republican narrative. It’s like…

I think in part some of the confusion comes from the fact that Trump isn’t claiming that Mexico has agreed to pay for the wall... he’s insisting that, no matter what this sovereign ally to the South says, he, as president of the United States with the backing of the strongest military and an incredibly influential…

And this right here is what pisses me the fuck off about our parenting culture in America. Parents (well, mostly mothers) are expected to be able to fill every single need for their children single-handedly. A parent is expected to be a caretaker, teacher, cook, laundress, cleaner, food source, and crafter-in-chief.…

He could’ve been Mayor of New York. Very easily, in fact. But dick pics were more important. And now he’s lost an amazing woman, and his son’s life will be impacted forever. Because dick pics were more important.

No. This will not work. Epinephrine autoinjectors exist because it’s impossible to use a syringe and ampule correctly when you can’t breathe. Nor will this work for a parent tending to their child: it turns out non-professionals take minutes to administer epinephrine. (Cite: Epinephrine for the out-of-hospital…

i want to do it, too! but not if taylor swift is involved.

He and Gabby Douglas get dragged, but Michael Phelps laughing was all in good fun? 🤔

The Colin Kaepernick outrage is driving me fucking bananas.

Dear people on my Facebook feed: If you are boycotting Walmart because of how it treated one police officer and not how it treats millions of employees; if you are boycotting the NFL because it tacitly supports not standing for the anthem and not because it tacitly supports rape, domestic violence and traumatic brain…

Yes, I would say so. Unless she didn’t claim it. But at the same time, I really don’t think the settlement was contingent on her donating the money. So, in that case, this doesn’t really seem fair because technically it should be her money to donate, not his. This strikes me as odd and I’m not sure how this can count…

Do you have a relationship with him now?

I wonder how many conservatives can’t see their own hypocrisy as they support something like this while at the same time demanding “religious freedom” laws that allow people to comply with a “sincerely held religious belief?”

Well, clearly he doesn’t think that the lives of women and children matter much. The victim impact statement from the Brock Turner case did not convince him that the destruction of her life warranted any thing that would derail Turner’s. And he clearly is, yes, too stupid to understand that to have child porn at all,…

Women OWNED this Olympics. So many records smashed.

—Her brothers were allowed to continue with their education—

Quvenzhane’ Wallis is in 8th grade?!? When did that happen?

A lot of people on Jezebel love to criticize me for not being an avid Hillary supporter. I will vote for her because she isn't Trump, that doesn't mean she was my first choice. But the reason I don't trust her is that she always seemed willing to let other women's lives be destroyed by her husband so she could advance…

I think we need to apply the Ledecky idea to Simone here. No one else competes, they just give her all three medals, say “thanks”, and go home.

Incredibly beautiful and moving, and she is so lucky to have had the resources (financial, social, political, emotional) to have been able to do that.
