I don’t remember it being this controversial when God was a white woman. And Canadian.

I wonder if some of these pastors are aware that Jesus was a middle-eastern Jew and not northern European?

A pastor in California is part of a faction of Christians upset about Octavia Spencer’s role as God in the movie adaptation of William P. Young’s controversial 2007 novel The Shack. Spencer is black, you see, and God is a white man.

I’m in Columbus with family for the holidays. I’d like to be of service while here, heading back to Brooklyn Wednesday. Just point me in the right direction.

You know what? If this is the hill the Ohio GOP wants to die on, they can fucking have at it.

I don’t think there’s an epidemic of pedophiles as much as there is an epidemic of people who don’t want to rock the boat and so let a small number of serial predators escape justice time and time again.

I will never understand people that get reports of this nature and don’t call the fucking police!! Pedophiles and rapists don’t just have one “oops” moment and then they are fine and never abuse anyone again.

Trump buyers remorse is another media construction, like Donald’s business empire and Hillary’s corruption. Living in the land of the deplorables, there’s no regret even though it’ll be the first area to fall apart once Trump’s policies take hold.

Have fun assholes! Just sucks you’re taking us all down with ya.

I want to. I want to feel schadenfreude so very badly, but the schadenfreude is so shitty when it also affects me...

I’m having a hard time feeling any sympathy for Trump voters who get health benefits via the exchange or who receive Medicare/Social Security who seem stunned that the continuation of these benefits is now in real jeopardy. I feel sorry for everyone smart enough not to vote for Trump who will lose access to these…

“Part of it has to do with different evidentiary standard.”  Key phrase of the entire article. Title IX has much lower requirements than a court of law.  Law is “guilty beyond reasonable doubt” while Title IX is “a preponderance of evidence.”  It allows Universities to respond in many situations where the law is…

Diana, your work is incredible and important and thank you.

Diana, you’re strong AF.

For some reason, I really want Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry’s relationship to last.
