If you're interested in reading about great kickass nuns in history, check out St Teresa of Avila. She took no shit from donors, had song and dance parties with her sisters, and was so respected for her smarts that the male clergy came to her for advice (and was named a Doctor of the Church). Sometimes crabby and…
I am in my late 30s and I’m a fat chick. Too old and too fat for the win!
We didn’t always say nice things, and sometimes we were downright mean. Sometimes I just vented about frustrating experiences in an immature, hateful, and foolish way. It was in particular a breach of trust to post intimate details about lovers. I was naive enough to think it’d stay anonymous, and I was wrong.
“we cannot allow items on campus that can be perceived to pose a threat.”
That’s the thing. I said this on Gawker, but if anyone associated with the school had thought, for even one second, that it was a bomb, the reaction would have be massively different. The school would have been evacuated. The bomb squad would have been called. The teacher wouldn’t have put the “bomb” in her fucking…
As a gay lawyer (we are legion!), the real villains here are Kim Davis’s lawyers. To be honest, I kind of feel bad for Davis herself. Yes, she is a gross bigot with woeful fashion sense, but she’s also clearly not that smart and her lawyers do are 100% using her to push their own agendas and absolutely do not have her…
I identify as Christian, and it dismays me to no end how Christians seem to always feel that they’re under attack or being “discriminated against”. New flash: losing unearned privileges that you earned solely based upon your religious affiliation is not “discrimination” nor “persecution”. Not being able to use your…
Let’s talk about #KimDavis and her abuse of office by hiring unqualified friends and family.
“She has a right to this employment.” Uh, sure. And if I refused to do my job, I’d be losing it too.
She will resign eventually, once the contempt fines start rolling in and she exhausts her legal remedies. She has no case.
“Why should this court not find you in contept?”
“Because Jesus, your honor.”
“Aaaaaand?”
“Also God, your honor.”
“That’s ALL you have, huh?”
Face like a clenched fist. My best friend of forty years, who knows me better than anyone, gave me a sanctimonious lecture in front of her 14 year old daughter about the sanctity of heteronormative marriage. (I’m gay as can be..) I could tell she thought of this as a teaching moment for her child. She huffed out of…
Can you imagine the nuclear-level shitfit some conservatives would have if a liberal clerk refused to issue someone a gun licence because they didn’t like firearms? They’d be furious, and you know, rightly so. People have a right to expect public officials to follow the law, even if they don’t agree with it. If you…
Hitler wasn’t Catholic. His mother was, his father wasn’t, and he never practiced after leaving home. And the Nazis weren’t excommunicated for a couple of reasons. One is that excommunication is quite rare these days. Another is that they use it for a very specific purpose of Catholics challenging church doctrine.…
Remember: He wasn’t around for the Holocaust as Pope.
Because it isn’t really about gay marriage. Did you see her acceptance speech or the other clerk’s interview when he said he would die for the cause? They’re narcissists that like the attention, and their religion allows them to have their egos stroked. She and her family have also held that office for many years, and…
