Low hanging fruit:

Honestly, I cannot understand the batshit mental acrobatics and internalized misogyny that would enable any woman to defend Trump’s comments.

If you don’t want your daughter to hear the word “pussy” maybe don’t let her watch the segment where you’re defending Donald Trump bragging about grabbing women by the pussy. That’s like going on Twitter on a Sunday night and complaining about Game of Thrones spoilers.

There’s a level on which my favorite part of this is the official press release containing the sentence “We are not screwing around, Philly.”

As a mom i identified with the mother as soon as i saw the video. I know that calm. I was pulled over by a police officer who did not want to let me go. He kept coming back to my car asking more questions. I did not have nor was i on any drugs or alcohol. License, reg, insurance in check. I even had a gold card from…

I’ve seen some people on my FB news feed (those that I affectionately refer to as “the asshole contingent” of my family, mostly) questioning how calm she remained throughout the video, and how matter-of-fact her narration was. The upshot seemed to be that there was something fishy about it.

Comment from my bestie on my outraged FB post this morning:

Black folk, it is okay to take a mental health day from reading this stuff. I have to today or I’ll rage stroke and cry in a corner. I’m tired. I’m tired of being tired. And I am tired of indifference from anyone who calls themselves allies.

No record, no mugshot, no criminal past, legally permitted weapon, complete cooperation, all on video.

Okay as someone who has actually dealt with the shit you get when you have large breasts, this is not a humblebrag. Big boobs are not a luxury contrary to popular belief, they are a pain in the ass. And the worst part is you aren’t even allowed to vent about them without someone saying, “I would kill for big boobs!”…

Do you have large breasts? Because if not, you should know that no one with large breasts humble brags about it. It’s not like being “too skinny.” Having large breasts is so traumatic, developmentally, that most women need really muster up courage to talk about any harassment they face because of it. (It might be…

It’s not. It’s fucking AWFUL having large breasts and you DO get treated like an asshole by asshole ALL.THE.TIME.

I have just finally gotten to the point in life where I am comfortable wearing tops that aren’t super loose or conservative because of all of the shit I got in middle school and high school for having large breasts in proportion to my frame. Fuck those supervisors for pulling that bullshit. It is that type of behavior…

‘Surprise!’ I yelled. ‘Gender is a kind of imitation for which there is no original; in fact, it is a kind of imitation that produces the very notion of the original as an effect and consequence of the imitation itself!’ Cuteness overload.”

we were the best at CFCs...now we are the worst!

“consumer aerosol products made in the U.S. have not contained ozone-depleting chemicals—also known as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)—since the late 1970s, first because companies voluntary eliminated them, and later because of federal regulations.” Is 40 years ago the America that was “great”?

Is it possible for police to make a welfare check on him? I know involving police isn’t always the best idea but it doesn’t seem like anyone else in his inner circle is really doing anything for him. I also don’t know anything about social work so I could be totally off base here.

In an ideal world, alimony isn't necessary, because women have equal earning potential, aren't discouraged from pursuing leadership positions, aren't financially crippled by the expectations of motherhood, etc. That's the world feminism is aiming for. But we're not there yet.

You're right! Sorry! I'll fix it!

"Any pressures and expectations that lower the quality of life of either gender are part of patriarchy."
