Yea, I very much like Stacey Abrams, and I agree with her on 99% of issues, have donated to her in the past and will throw my support behind any office she wants to run for in the future, but I think she is wrong about this one.

Yea, to me it’s not even about the boycott or if it “works.” It’s about companies choosing not to knowingly put their employees in a position where their health and lives are not going to be taken seriously, and I think that’s how most of the companies themselves have framed it. I honestly don’t think Disney cares if…

Yea, you can’t vote for these assholes for decades and then suddenly be shocked, shocked I tell you! to find out that they enact the exact policies they said they would. And you really can’t be shocked when all the people from California suddenly don’t want to spend their money in your backwater of a state anymore.…

I think it is hard to blame companies for not wanting to send their female employees to Georgia. What if, god forbid, one of their pregnant employees miscarries, and these dolts refuse to do an abortion because the fetus “might still be viable”? Or their employee gets charged with murder for miscarrying? Gets raped…

In Hope Hick’s case I am assuming it rhymes with “young, white, and conventionally attractive.” We can’t have her being dragged out into the street in handcuffs like those *other* people.

I mean, her education on the British constitution is excellent, I have no doubt. But that’s not generally considered a super interesting topic to discuss over dinner. 

Yea, I’ve heard that she is neither particularly interesting nor intellectually stimulating to talk to (which I guess is what you get when the literal only qualification for your job is “be pushed out of the right vagina first”), and that other than the novelty of being able to say you’ve met the Queen, it’s not the…

I mean, the last time I went to Europe the gov’t did pay for it, but I assure you it was under very different circumstances (going to play in the mud with the Army in Germany). No one even offered to let me meet the Queen.

But will she show up for public testimony?

“Ms. Clark stated she did not realize the tweets were public,” the review said, according to a copy obtained by the Post.

And that’s taking into account that women candidates are usually more qualified than their male counterparts, because men are socialized to think “f*ck it, I could be Senator/ Governor/ President” whereas women are conditioned to think “I need to be the most qualified person possible before I even think about running.”

I’m sure he’s going to write a book, run for Senate, or try to be a talking head on cable news and just wants some name ID.

to help elect women on the “center-right and the right” who are fatigued by identity politics but still feel they aren’t “necessarily represented” in politics, according to the organization

I’m over all these people who try to take the mic away from candidates (there have been more than just this guy). It’s cheap stunt, you aren’t convincing anyone, no one is listening to you, and all you are doing is screwing a bunch of people out of the event they took time out of their day to go see.  All of the above…

Yea, outside of legislation, court documents, and like, medical texts, I have a pretty casual relationship with spelling and most grammar rules. Language is about communication- if you get the message then it’s being done right, regardless of how “right” it is. 

Cathrine of Aragon is in the same boat, and doubly so considering that her name was original in Spanish, then was Anglicized when she married Henry, and in both languages it was spelled multiple ways.

Spelling bees occupied such a weird time between “it really doesn’t matter how you spell things” (seriously, look at some of say- the founding father’s letters. People would spell the same word different ways, includes names) and “we have autocorrect now, so you really don’t need to know how to spell every word.” It’s…

Yea, it turns out that when these right-wing “Christian” types are forced to choose between their “morals” and their money, they mostly go for the money. Boycott these fools. 

While I totally understand that the primary victims of this law are the women of Georgia, I think a lot of the takes, even by well-meaning activists, of “you should still spend all your money filming here for X reasons” really ignores that doing so means putting women who work for these companies in a very real…

Good. I know some people in Georgia aren’t a huge fan of this boycott, but I also think it is irresponsible for a company to ask a large part of it’s workforce to work in a place where their medical issues won’t be taken seriously. The last thing an employee of Disney wants is to be worried that if she miscarries she…
