Right, he’s cozied up to evangelical Christians and has given a pass to organizations whose main purpose is to eliminate LGBTQ people from the public sphere and reverse all pro-LGBTQ laws and court decisions.

The solution to this problem is to require via legislation that all police officers have to carry bond/insurance for these types of events. When they fuck up, the insurance pays out instead of the city.

I got immediately turned off when he lied about endorsements he got from South Carolina. Fuck him.

Hot take: as a business owner, if you arent complaining about the skyrocketing rent, but are closing because you will have to pay your employees a fair wage finally, you arent a great business owner to begin with. If 40K more a year is causing you to close, how successful was your business to begin with. Thats a…

My question, at this point, is why does anyone who doesn’t worship him bother listening to, much less repeating, what the president says? There is never anything of actual value in anything he ever says. “Oh, it’ll give us a clue what he’s thinking!” He doesn’t think. He reacts. His vectors are always rage, envy,…

I thought f-word meant another slur for a different marginalized group. The fact that it was just “fuck” is weird and makes it so much worse. In what universe is fuck worse than the n-word?

 I am a stander, but I don’ trush into the aisle and I am often the last off the plane.  However, I nearly never stand during a flight, no matter the duration.  I am also 6'2" 245, with shoulders about 2 ft wide... so after being cramped in a seat made for a 9 year old for 2-6 hours, yes, I will stand when the plane…

I think it’s anise. 

I think this is a matter of age. I came of age in the 90s/2000s - at that time society as a whole was not as up to date on all the spectrums of gender expression so to me, identifying as bisexual meant for me that I was into everyone (men, women, feminine men, masculine women), and in today’s world a lot of those…

I’m bi and my husband is non-binary, and I think generally speaking bi people would tell you that being bi does NOT mean your attraction follows the gender binary. A lot of people define it as “two or more genders” or “attraction to my gender and not-my gender.” Because yeah, the prefix “bi” implies two. But it isn’t…

That’s kind of like thinking that someone who is bipolar only has two moods. I’m bi, and I am just as attracted to trans men and women as I am to cis men and women. Or androgynous or agender people! People can (obviously) feel free to use the word pan if they like, but setting it up as “we are attracted to trans or…

The problem is that you are looking at an individual situation, without regard to the rest of the reality that exists for people with disabilities. There is a reason accessibility requirements are far-reaching and total - it’s from the conviction that a well designed society is that one where a person with a…

Bad take is bad.

There are some folks who are really invested in performative forgiveness. If you ever look into the case that inspired the Dirty John podcast, you’ll hear of a mother who testified FOR her daughter’s ex-husband. The ex shot her daughter in cold blood in the back of the head (explicitly she testified at the trial he…

I just want to know why the hell they are being referred to as “public scooters” when they are essentially the e-waste of a private company?

What drives me bonkers is that the same people yelling about not judging Joker before seeing it are the same folks I’m certain judged Captain Marvel, Black Panther, and Ghostbusters (2016) before those films were released.

Peugeot 208, not Pequot.  

I think his brain might be just fine. He’s trying to regain agency over what happened. Something super awful and as far as he’s concerned completely random happened, and he wants something to hold on to, so he has built up in his mind a story that gives himself more power.

It is just a skirmish in a wider war but it puts a spotlight on who the enemy actually is. People always focus on the redcaps in flyover states but the Republican hate machine is powered by rich people. The Democratic Party is as well but they’ll at least pay lip service to the idea of democracy by the people. The…
