Baldwin is not revered or remembered as much as he should be in the gay community. This guy was a groundbreaking hero.

There’s something mesmerizing about his combination of righteous anger, intellectual precision, and unflappable self-respect. He was of his time, but also ahead of his time, because nobody answered the questions he raised, and still haven’t.

But now that they are probably aware, and considering the intensity of these allegations regarding the organizers, it is very reasonable to expect the performers to go on the offensive ahead of the event. I will be a little disappointed if Beyoncé or Kendrick or Lorde don’t address this before Coachella and they damn

NO THIS IS TOO LOGICAL I AM ANGRY AT BEYONCE

shit like this always makes me think of that lindy west quote from shrill (which i’m paraphrasing): feminism is realizing everything you love actually hates you.

Teen Vogue is killing it and I am enjoying watching all the men be like “but women who like shoes can only write about shoes! herp derp”

Ugh, why can’t people allow me to enjoy them/their things without being secretly awful.

Also, I don’t think it’s necessarily worth sticking it to the musicians on this year’s lineup, who 1. likely do not have dealings with Anschutz and 2. have certainly signed their contracts long ago, the violation of which would likely lead to legal ramifications. Don’t go vilifying Beyoncé or Kendrick or Lorde etc,

The unfortunate truth is that 95% of the population, particularly those who scream “lip sync” don’t understand the technical challenges of music, any music in an outside venue. Or, any venue for that matter.

These are things we know in part thanks to leaks from Snowden and Manning. All the while liberals have been happy to condemn the whistleblowers and continue sucking

I call bullshit. Understanding bonds and investment principles has zero to do with the every day business of making ends meet for 99% of people. And that business about minorities paying more to borrow money? It’s not because they’re dumb/uneducated about how borrowing works, it’s because our financial system actively

I think he is working on a new play/musical.

My hair is thinning and I don't use dry shampoo. It is hereditary. But I started using Lady Rogaine and it works.

I put in a decade of “boring” work in my teens and 20s, trying to solve my anxiety and depression issues while tethered to the same small area I was born in, grew up in, and had lived in forever. I was told time and time again that it was my fault and that if I really wanted to get better I would “try” and be

Doubtful! Twitter fights aren’t destroying public education.

Please see also Philly and Chicago. It’s disgraceful.

I know this is overused, but I’m not joking...comments on this article are giving me life. I’m tired from the struggle. Fighting privatization is discouraging. Knowing that other people know and care about these issues- other teachers, parents, and people in the community- it means a lot.
