As apposed to “I pledge allegiance to the flag...”

I have been saying for months now that, for the first time I can remember, I’m worried about violence when Trump loses. Both on the election day and after. I’m not worried about organized armed insurrection (because the dude couldn’t organize an alphabet). What I worry about is a spike in domestic violence, racial…

Also, someone took the time over the weekend to go through Blake Shelton’s twitter and dig up some of his racists, homophobic & sexist tweets:

The way she’s talking is just heartbreaking. Anyone with an abusive ex or something knows that voice.

I watched the video last night when I knew I shouldn’t have. Any person who has grown up in a home with an angry drunk knows how scary the situation is, to not take Amber seriously and still defend this POS. While they may have had a tumultuous relationship, I think it damages society when people jump to excuse bad…

Yes, the most important thing is whether she leaked the video, not the pattern of behavior the video displays. I wish I was a famous, rich, and attractive (to many) man, imagine what I could get away with!!

I was just reading some comments about the Depp/Heard story on other sites and I’ve concluded that a video could emerge of Johnny Depp repeatedly punching Amber Heard in the face, and the internet would still declare her to be a gold digger who deserved it.

So fucking depressing.

When will the pasty corniness that is Taylor Swift abandon the stage and make room for actually talented white girls? I mean, she's so intolerable and a sign of the cultural decay we're living through. Je-sus, she's the worst. Her and Macklemore or however you spell that demon's name.

Oh, you live here! Gosh, yes, you’ve really been tossed in head first, then. The multi-hued ways in which our nation is a mess goes a ways to explaining our Olympic mania. We can’t be proud of our current political process, or our wealth inequities, or some of our social conditions, but dammit, we can be proud of our…

Their biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to her own.

THEY WILL BE ASSIMILATED. ALL WILL BE ASSIMILATED IN THE FULLNESS OF TIME.

Again, I can’t think of a second job I could do in the time that I’m not at my first job that would net me $22000 a year, after tax, but sure, not “rich”

That’s...not how it works. Hours of instruction has basically zero correlation to how much an institution charges for tuition or pays its staff.

there is nothing wrong with these pictures, and posting them to insta didn’t “cause” trolls to do anything. trolls troll because they’re anti-social sadists, not because young women share photos on a photo sharing app.

I watched live* last night and was taken aback at the amount of time AND speculation they were spending on her husband, his coaching, and their relationship. And then to credit him with her victory and for ‘saving’ her from herself was just gross.

They need to fire all their [men] who are still living in the 1950s.

This makes me really hate NBC.

NBC needs to give Olympics coverage to someone competent.

You know, I think most old men have absolutely god-awful personalities because they were shaped and rewarded by such a deeply misogynistic culture which both glorified and infantilized men (in the sense that they were allowed to believe the world revolves around them and other beings were innately less important and…
