am i the only person who basically has no desire to see live action versions of cartoons? unless you are doing something like ‘ever after’ whats the point?

Jez should create a living document of all these stories. There are already hundreds and it’s been four days.

I don’t really understand how ANYONE affected by trump’s rhetoric or policies could vote republican, much less vote for him. Like the 53% of white women who voted for him, wtf were they thinking??

I am really, deeply sorry for your troubles, but I also want to know I am shaking silently from laughing so hard, so know your pain was not truly in vain, for it brought this stranger temporary joy.

Oh but we totally do stop having sex. In truthiness, all couples stop having sex, if they’re together for a long time. It’s like...a few times, my doctor and I agreed I should stop taking my adderrall, rather than up my dosage. Then after a few weeks I started up at a low dose, and jr worked better than it had in a…

This is very timely.

Anybody else been gassy? I was so gassy at work yesterday that when some guy was being a colossal douche I would pass by him and quietly cropdust him. Seriously I did it at least four times over the course of a day.

I’ve had the same thought myself, like if this country is really gonna go back to the 1950s would it be wise to bring a kid into it? Especially if it’s a girl. I don’t even wanna think about that. I hope it’s not as serious as it seems right now :/

THANK YOU!!!! LONG LIVE GAWKER!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’m a high school teacher at a conservative boarding school in Virginia. Here is the letter I wrote to my (mostly Trump-supporting) students.

I’m getting “Jupiter Ascending” vibes from this. And I legit love that. Also, props to Rihanna for looking fierce as always.  

It’s possible that term limits, by removing the option to be a career legislator, would only worsen the current problem of time in Congress just being a stepping-stone to lucrative lobbying jobs. I’d be worried that representatives would just spend even more of their time setting themselves up for their next job.

There are positives to this.

I fail to see why term limits for congressmen are any better or worse than term limits for POTUS. I mean the only reason to have either is to prevent repeated election. By the same token I don’t see how some form of limit would be any more detrimental for congress than it is for POTUS.

I would call it, but I think Pence’s brand of Christianity frowns upon the woman being on top in bed.

You know what, I’m not buying it.

So it was a pushback against the “establishment,” huh? Then can you explain to me why nearly every incumbent Congressperson running was re-elected?

Said this elsewhere, but it bears repeating... Clinton, Obama, et al were right about one thing: this election was about what kind of country we are. And the electorate has decided: we are an asshole. Of the assholes, by the assholes, for the assholes. And now we have an Asshole-in-Chief. Van Jones is right, we are a…

You ask me, supporting a racist rapist who has zero policies and only stokes bigotry and hatred makes someone a pretty terrible person. But, then again, I’m a queer woman whose friends are largely women, queer folks, and POCs. You know, the people Trump and his followers hate and plan to punish for existing.
