he is so DELIGHTFUL. like seriously.

Obligatory:

YES. I work in tech, too, and when I first started my career, my self-righteous (although ultimately well-meaning) uncle gave me a signed copy of “Lean In” to inspire me. When moving earlier this year, my boyfriend and I found the copy and debated whether or not we could sell it for money, before ultimately throwing…

‘Oh, that is great! we are really happy for her and totally support her!’ Said every tech bro ever.

I am, too. I’m sorry someone is trying to hijack your thread with nonsense.

I’m sorry you attracted the attention of sour crank above. I hear ya, and I’m proud, too. :)

Thank you so much for saying this Lauren. A lot of people I care about are Bernie supporters. I get that it’s going to be a disappointment for Bernie supporters. I really do and I respect that. But please for the love of all that’s holy, if you actually care about a progressive agenda, don’t let that that…

I keep thinking, if you don’t understand why this is important, you’ve never been one of two women in your PhD class of 15. Or one of three women in your cohort at work. Or though, maybe I’d want to do this in my career, and then remembered that 90% of people in that position are men. I cried the whole train ride home…

Amen and well put. As a woman, I don’t think I fully understood how much I needed to see that until I saw her up there

I started this primary season as a Sanders supporter and now I’m pouring myself a nice big glass of wine. I'm enjoying the fact that my daughter is going to grow up in a world where a woman is a nominee for the presidency. A world where most likely Hillary Clintom will be president and she will be able to remember it.…

Don’t forget, we only got the vote in 1919.

Her speech, with its references to Seneca Falls and all the history that came before, was in perfect tune.

I'm proud of my party today.

I’m waiting for someone else to say Yay, Hillary! so that they can shoulder the brunt of the anger and conspiracy theories.

In less than a month it will have been 240 years since America declared its independence and this country began. In those 240 years there has not been a single woman as a presidential nominee of a major party. ABOUT GODDAMN TIME.

I enjoyed her speech and thought the delivery was great. I’m beyond fucking excited to see her smash Drumpf into the ground. Boy, bye.

Yes we are. Get hype.

Are we allowed to be excited yet? I have a two year old daughter and this is just such a huge thing for her generation. She gets to grow up knowing you don’t have to be a white male to be president.

Someone asshole on Facebook just posted an article blasting her for wearing a jacket they deemed “too expensive” during a speech— the same article also critiqued her previous style, which the author deemed frumpy, dowdy, and matronly. This made me want to flip a freaking table because OBVIOUSLY, of COURSE, the way to…
