I can’t imagine the psychological position of having filmed a rape scene informed by one’s own experiences and then to find out that the writer and director who helped create it were also accused of rape. Moral vertigo.

It’s not bad to like the West Wing! But if you rewatch it, particularly in conjunction with some of Sorkin’s other shows (or after you are more familiar with certain things he has said or done in RL), there’s a pretty good chance you’ll start to realize that a fair amount of what you originally thought was brilliant…

like, life is so short, why would you waste your time listening to taylor perry. isn’t that a singer? i’m not sure, i don’t really pay attention to that stuff.

I totally understand what you mean. I’m the kind of person who listens to NPR instead of Top 40, you know?

Every liberal I personally know voted for Bernie and now every single one of them, myself included, is getting behind Hillary. We’re giving too much of a voice to the Bernie or Bust contingent who are a teeny tiny minority of his supporters and are people who probably do not generally vote and if they do, they don’t…

I just want to highlight this passage for anyone who skims or just jumps to the comments. Because truer words.

Methinks the point has flown right over your wee head.

fuck off

I mean, I can think of worse hobbies than breaking glass ceilings?

“Hillary Clinton (who is imperfect and corruptible but an competent and experienced center-left public servant)...”

Hell hath no fury like a man embarrassed.

As a transgender woman — no matter how safe I feel in any kind of space or event, no matter who my friends are, or who I find myself alone in rooms with — I will always feel uneasy because California remains the only state to have banned ‘trans panic’ as an unjustifiable legal defense.

Twelve years for a hate crime homicide? That seems like an extremely light sentence, when would he be eligible for parole?

Agree. I’ve had plus-sized friends point out how bad it makes them feel when thin women call themselves fat (in a negative way) because they’re like, “If she thinks SHE is fat, what the hell does she think of me?”

Here’s a revolutionary idea:

I think it’s more the size 12, 14, hell, 24 young girls thinking “Omg, if SHE’S plus sized, what am I?”

12.99? Are you fucking kidding me?

So not only does the booklet cost $12.99 but it also contains recycled content. So Glamour wants to overcharge plus sized women for old information.
