Oh, come on. “You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch” is an awesome song! Such excellent lines as:

We are headed for the Uncanny Butt Crack, if we aren’t already there.

“We need to vote our asses off in 2018"

The crime these children committed was pretty straight foward. Being black.

She gives the most exquisitly concise argument yet seen about how things should be; what a developed society demands of the human animal...

100 percent. The sooner the Democratic establishment owns, accepts and champions black issues, the sooner they’ll realize that black issues ARE American issues.

As a pretty progressive white dude, white people in general continue to disappoint me. All the strides I thought we were making socially were just kind of facades. There is a sickness in this country, and whether it is malignant or benign, it is firmly entrenched. I do think we’re still making net progress, but it’s…

Of course they are: they just lost a senate race in fucking Alabama. They’ve utterly poisoned the well for an entire generation that’s going to be voting for the next 50+ years, while their own voting base is shrinking faster than Roy Moore’s dick at turning-20 birthday party.

Whenever someone mentions how it was such a long time ago in their denial, my spider senses tingle. I really hope I’m wrong.

I’m in a “fuck all y’all straight to hell”. Not only the predators but their buddies and enablers and other adjacent hangers-on who directly or indirectly benefitted from each of these scumbags’ careers.

I’ve come to a point where I have decided to believe ALL rumors of sexual assault and harassment. I’d rather side with a victim and be proved wrong than leap to the defense of a predator in the name of lofty ideals like “fairness”, thereby making it more difficult for women to come forward. There is nothing fair about…

I had that same feeling but I’m so happy right now. It isn’t my district, but I am so proud to be a Virginian tonight.

Had the same dread in the commonwealth. Feeling so relieved so far.

A trans woman defeating the guy who tried to pass a bathroom bill is the kind of poetic justice we need.

And then we brushed the shit off and chalked it up to him just being a dirty old man.”

He was trying to break Rand’s spine but couldn’t find one.

“This is difficult for many men to accept”—I think that’s a major part of men’s denial and stonewalling. The volume and severity of sexual assault and harassment, particularly of women, strains the limits of comprehension even for me, a woman who has been through it myself. I’m not saying that men get a pass for not…

Nothing worked, Alec.
Bill Cosby raped women his entire adult life. He had busloads of accusers. He was taken to court by the woman whose “case it was to prosecute” and the motherfucker still walked out.
Danny Masterson still has a job. He has accusers with the same story.
Clarence Thomas has a job for life and Anita…

I was just thinking about this. You know how presidents usually age a lot over the course of their term? I think in the case of Trump, he won’t age a day because he doesn’t give a shit about what happens to our country, but the American people are all going to look 20 years older by 2019 or so.

Re: Wieseltier and Landesman, they know better than to call these accusations “pathetic lies.” Wieseltier, in particular, knew there was only one apology he could possibly pen and he nailed it. But that’s what makes it all the more demoralizing for me, as a woman in the academic industry. The men who harass and demean…
