And, of course, the greys are an utter shitshow.

This is one of the biggest problems women face - the idea that as long as they don’t “put up with any inappropriate behaviour”, nothing bad will happen to them. Ergo, any woman who gets harassed or assaulted MUST have inadvertently or deliberately encouraged the man.

During Elvis Presley’s Hollywood years, he liked to throw big parties at his Bel Air home and have lots of decorative starlets around the pool. But Elvis had a major foot fetish, and didn’t want to see any girls with gnarly feet.

“A source said that Chua quickly responded, saying that her own daughter would not put up with any inappropriate behaviour.”

Me to Kavanaugh and every single person who ever has, continues to, and ever will enable him:

I say this kindly; you need to prepare yourself for Kavanaugh being confirmed and before the midterms. You also need to prepare yourself that there is definite possibility that Democrats fall short of taking the house back let alone the senate.

Vote in November and think of her VOTE and take a person with you (or 10) to the polls. No matter if you live in a heavily democratic or republican district. Local elections matter and they some times are decided by a vote VOTE it is about the only thing you can do about this mess.

It baffles me when an immigrant or someone from immigrant parents fully embraces Trump’s anti-immigrant policies. Look in the mirror!  He's trying to keep YOU out. 

Thank you for writing so succinctly and eloquently what I’ve been raging about in my head for days. It’s like an angry swarm of bees has taken residence in my brain. I’m so angry that this one perverted, monstrous asshole is ruining this woman’s life AGAIN, and this time with the enthusiastic help from a whole entire…

No, these things are important and we need to rush to fill vacancies on the court as fast as possible. Just ask Supreme Court Justice Merrick Garland.

Aaaand right-wing folks will act like they turned the tables on her, saying they didn’t let her get away with her “say one word and he’s a convicted rapist” ploy. They won’t see this miserable outcome as it is: the status quo in a social climate in which no sane woman with anything to lose would ever accuse a man,…

Zumba is no longer nerdy.

Of course they have the votes. None of this has meant anything. And that poor woman is being dragged through hell for nothing and Flake knows it. 

He’s not “your” attorney general fuck face...he is “our” attorney general, and even that’s questionable. 

Thank you for sharing that. Felipe and Letizia (two of the best educated royals anywhere) had to know they were sitting down with one of the dumber couples on the world stage, but imagine what they must’ve been saying to each other and their foreign minister on the flight home! The mind reels.

Senator Flake! We get the moral outrage you occasionally feel and even more occasionally tweet about, but come on, man! You're in a position where you can do more than tweet your disgust. Do something to check this unchecked, unhinged president. 

I really would have loved to see King Felipe and Queen Letizia’s faces when he said that. She’s already famous in Spain for her crazy eyes so they must have been bugging out of her head when he suggested a wall.
