As someone who’s studied the persecution of religious minorities and women in Medieval Europe (no one expects the Spanish Inquisition!) I can say you’re absolutely correct. We often ignore the ugly underbelly hiding beneath our victories. The same culture that printed the Gutenberg Bible also executed countless…

Aspirations...

I have already filled in some squares!

Well said, Ms. Roo. How did you get so smart? lol

Better question, why is Marilyn Manson holding a cupcake?

Yes, he led a diverse Marine Corps. He led that under a prescribed set of rules and regulations. There’s very little acceptance of personal opinion in the chain of command. How anyone would believe that the general he was had any bearing on the man he is incongruous to me. Following the rules doesn’t make you any less…

Anyone who looks at the baby and feels anything other than joy at his smile is a soulless piece of shit. I hope they get eaten by jackals. He’s adorable.

Thank you. I’m always tickled at how upset people get when stories about people’s gay/bisexual pasts come up. Did they think that it’s a new thing? No one before 1960 was gay or bisexual? The numbers haven’t changed. We can just be more open and talk about it now. LGBT have always been here, we always will be. :)

Why yes, morons. They started and fought a war they couldn’t win. Then their states slipped into backwardness and poverty. The former Confederate deep south is the bottom of the barrel for health, poverty, education, etc. Anyone clinging to that symbol of willful ignorance was then, and is now, a fucking moron.

I watched that video. I don’t remember that much velour and velvet back then. I’m a little put out that I was so plush fabric deprived in the 90's.

I’m sure Elizabeth will be serving up some dour edginess.

Somewhere is a box I have an old “Silence=Death” shirt from my 80's ACT UP days. That shirt has never not been relevant to political discourse one way or another. The older I get the less things seem to change. I’m still holding optimism for humanity though, old softie that I am.

This happens multiple times very week. It needs to have a special circumstance (bail issue, multiple arrests, etc.) for it to be news. Men kill their partners every single day and we never hear about it. Toxic masculinity kills, but it seems to do so mostly in silence.

His neck us freaking me out

Let’s face it...outrage sells. That’s why Nazis and trolls are so rampant. Twitter would rather have hate clicks then none at all. They’re pandering to the lowest common denominator. I am on Twitter...I love Twitter...Twitter is bullshit. Also, that dude looks like a turtle who lost his shell. What’s wrong with his…

Thanks for the nightmare fuel. Like that motherfucker hadn’t already filled my tank.

I’ve taken photos with tortillas. I’m now a burrito. Enjoy me with your favorite salsa. Wtf?

Yes, please make your point so he can mansplain it for you. “Well, actually...”

Gold plated toilets ain’t free...

My girlfriend isn’t white. I don’t suddenly gain access and knowledge of her entire culture and experience because of it. It’s not fucking osmosis. It’s not mine just because I love her. These guys deserve what they’re getting.
